The 4-digit file number is like the frame number on a roll of film. The captured images are assigned a sequential file number from 0001 to 9999 and saved to one folder. You can also change how the file number is assigned. (Ex.) 7E3B0001.jpg

Select [File numbering]. Under the [] tab, select [File numbering], then press <SET>. Select the file numbering method. Turn the <> dial to select the desired method, then press <SET>.

CONTINUOUS

Continues the file numbering sequence even after the memory card is replaced or a new folder is created. Even after you replace the memory card or create a new folder, the file numbering continues in sequence up to 9999. This is convenient when you want to save the images numbered anywhere between 0001 to 9999 in multiple cards or folders into one folder in your personal computer. If the replacement memory card or existing folder already contains images recorded previously, the file numbering of the new images might continue from the file numbering of the existing images in the card or folder. If you want to save images with continuous file numbering, use a newly formatted memory card each time.

AUTO RESET

The file numbering restarts from 0001 each time the memory card is replaced or a new folder is created. Whenever the memory card is replaced or a new folder created, the file numbering starts from 0001. This is convenient if you want to organize images according to memory cards or folders. If the replacement memory card or existing folder already contains images recorded previously, the file numbering of the new images might continue from the file numbering of the existing images in the card or folder. If you want to save images with the file numbering starting from 0001, use a newly formatted memory card each time.

MANUAL RESET

The file numbering starts from 0001 in the new folder. When you reset the file numbering manually, a new folder is created automatically and the file numbering of images saved to that folder starts from 0001. This is convenient when you want to use different folders for the images taken yesterday and the ones taken today, for example. After the manual reset, the file numbering returns to continuous or auto reset.
