File Numbers

Still images are automatically assigned file numbers from 0101 to 9900, and stored in folders containing up to 100 images. Folders are numbered from 101 to 998.

[RESET]:

Image numbers will restart from 101-0101 every time you insert a new memory card.

[CONTINUOUS]: Image numbers will continue from the number following that of the last image recorded with the camcorder. If the memory card you insert already contains an image with a larger number, a new image will be assigned a number one higher than that of the last image on the memory card. There will be no duplication of file numbers. This is useful for organizing images on a computer.
