File numbers

1 CONTINUOUS
Numbering is continuous between cards, so that
the first file number assigned on a new memory
card is 1 more than the last file number assigned
on the previous memory card. When the file
numbers are set to CONTINUOUS, each image
taken is assigned a different number, avoiding
duplication of numbers. This is convenient when
you want to manage your images on a PC. We
recommend keeping the file numbers set to
CONTINUOUS.

Set the image file numbers so that they reset each time a new memory card is
inserted, or so that they count up continuously.

The still images/movies you take are automatically assigned file numbers from
0101-9900 and stored in folders of 100 images each. Each folder is numbered
from 101 to 998 and recorded on the memory card. Sample images have been pre-
recorded on the supplied SD Memory Card, entering folder number 100 (folder
name is “100canon”).
