SET–UP
FRAME NO. (frame number storage)
This setting specifies whether frame numbers
continue on from the last number used or start
again from the beginning.
CONT. :Pictures are stored beginning from the
highest file number stored on the last xD-
Picture Card used.
RENEW: Pictures are stored on each xD-Picture
Card beginning with a file number 0001.
Setting this function to CONT. makes file
management easier as it ensures that file names
are not duplicated when images are downloaded to
a PC.
!
If a qRESET is performed, the FRAME NO. setting
(CONT. or RENEW) changes to CONT. but the frame
number itself does not revert to 0001.
!
If the xD-Picture Card already contains image files with file
numbers higher than the highest file number on the last xD-
Picture Card, images are stored beginning from the highest
file number on the current xD-Picture Card.
