File Numbering System

The pictures you take are automatically assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900 and stored

in folders of 100 images each. Each folder on the CF card is numbered from 100 to 998.

Automatic file numbering can be either by continuous numbering or auto reset numbering (the

default setting is oontinuous numbering):

(1) Continuous; Numbering is continuous

between oards, so that the first

file number assigned on a new
CF card is one more than the last

file number assigned on the

previous CF card.

(2) Auto reset: Each time you insert a new CF

card, the file number resets to its

default value (100-0001). If the

oard already oontains files, the

next

available

number

is

assigned.

File numbers are used the same way as frame numbers in a film camera.
For details about file numbers, see “Basic Terminology for Digital Cameras and
Digital Photography” (^131).
Because pictures taken using continuous shooting must be stored in the same

folder, there may in some cases be more than 101 images in a foider.

Because continuous numbering avoids duplication of image file numbers, this

iq/i

setting is convenient for prooessing images on computers.
