File Numbering: The Seq. Numbers Menu

The camera assigns each picture a file name con- sisting of “DSCN” followed by a four-digit num- ber assigned automatically by the camera (e.g., “DSCN0001.JPG”). This option controls how files are numbered.

Option	Description
	When this option is selected, the camera assigns all subsequent
	file numbers sequentially in ascending order, starting from the
On	last number used. If the memory card is formatted or a new
	card inserted in the camera, file numbering will continue from
	the last number used.
	The camera does not store the last file number used. When
Off	another memory card is inserted or a new folder is created,
	numbering starts from the lowest number available.
Reset	Clears the current file number from memory. Sequential num-
	bering begins again from the lowest number available.

File Numbering

File numbering starts over from 0001 if a picture is taken when the current folder contains a file numbered 9999. The camera will create a new folder by adding one to the current folder number (for example, if the current folder is “100NIKON,” the new folder will be named “101NIKON”). The new picture will be numbered 0001 and stored in the new folder. Each folder can hold up to 200 pictures. If file numbering reaches 9999 when the card contains a folder numbered 999, no more pictures can be stored on the card, even if suffi- cient memory remains. Insert a new memory card or format the current card.

Panorama Assist

Regardless of the option selected for Seq. Numbers, each sequence of pic- tures created at a setting of Panorama Assist ( 50) is stored in its own folder, with file numbering beginning from 0001.
