Using a Memory Card

File Numbers

Images are automatically assigned file numbers from 0101 to 9900 and stored in folders containing up to 100 images. Folders are assigned numbers from 101 to 998. (The sample images on the supplied memory card are saved in the [100canon] folder.)

You can choose to use consecutive file numbers (CONTINUOUS) or to reset the file number each time a different memory card is inserted (RESET). We recommend setting the file numbers to CONTINUOUS.

CONTINUOUS

The camcorder memorizes the file number of the last image and assigns the consecutive file number to the next image, even when a new memory card is inserted. (If a higher file number already exists on the memory card, the consecutive number will be assigned.) There will be no duplication of file numbers. This is useful for organizing images on a computer.

RESET

The file number will be reset each time a new memory card is inserted, starting with 101-0101. If the memory card already contains image files, the consecutive file number will be assigned.
