When a photograph is taken, the camera names the file by adding one to the last file
number used. This option controls whether file numbering continues from the last
number used when a new folder is created, the memory card is formatted, or a new
memory card is inserted in the camera.
At the default setting of Off, shutter is released when the shutter-release button is
pressed. In situations where the slightest camera movement can blur pictures, On
can be selected to delay shutter release until about 1 s after the shutter-release
button is pressed and the mirror is raised.

Option Description
On
When a new folder is created, the memory card formatted, or a new memory card
inserted in the camera, file numbering continues from the last number used or
from the largest file number in the current folder, whichever is higher. If a
photograph is taken when the current folder contains a photograph numbered
9999, a new folder will be created automatically and file numbering will begin
again from 0001.
Off
File numbering is reset to 0001 when a new folder is created, the memory card is
formatted, or a new memory card is inserted in the camera. Note that a new
folder is created automatically if a photograph is taken when the current folder
contains 999 photographs.
K Reset
Same as for On, except that the next photograph taken is assigned a file number
by adding one to the largest file number in the current folder. If the folder is
empty, file numbering is reset to 0001.
D
File Number Sequence
If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains either 999 photographs or a photograph
numbered 9999, the shutter-release button will be disabled and no further photographs can
be taken. Choose Reset for Custom Setting d4 and then either format the current memory
card or insert a new memory card.
