FILE NUMBERING SYSTEM

The images you take are automatically assigned file numbers from 00001 to 99999. When images are being reviewed, the file number of each image is displayed in the left corner of the Info Strip (see P.68). The file number is also incorporated into the filename of the image. The filename consists of “IMG” followed by the five-digit file number and extension. For example: image number 00023 will be stored in the file IMG00023.X3F. All SD9 image files will be stored in the /IMAGES folder on the CF card.

File numbering can be continuous, or can be reset every time an empty card is detected. Use the Camera Set-up Menu to set the file numbering system.

FILE NUMBERING OPTIONS
OPTIONDESCRIPTION
Continuous

Numbering is continuous. The first file number assigned on an

(Default)

empty card will be one higher than the last assigned number.

 

(If the inserted card contains SD9 images with file numbers

 

greater than the last assigned number, file numbering will

 

continue with one higher than the highest file number on the

 

card.)

Auto Reset

Each time an empty CF card is inserted, or all images on the

 

current card are deleted, the file number will reset to its default

 

value of 00001. (If the inserted card already contains SD9

 

images, the file number will not be reset).
