If continuous file numbering is not selected, file numbering will begin from 0001 whenever the user creates a new folder from the playback Folder Designate menu. File numbering will also begin from 0001 whenever the camera creates a new folder automatically, whether or not continuous file numbering is selected. New folders are created automatically when:

•The number of images in the current folder reaches 999

•The current folder contains a file numbered 9999
