About File Numbers
• Images are assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900 and organized in folders
usually containing up to 100 images. Folders are assigned numbers from 100 to
998.
Since images shot in continuous mode or Stitch Assist mode are always saved in the
same folder, some folders may contain 101 or more images.
The file numbers are reset to the start (100-0001) each time a new CF card is inserted. New
images recorded on CF cards with existing files are assigned the next available number.
The file number of the last image to be shot is memorized so that images recorded to a new
CF card start from the next number.
