Setting serial numbers for file names (FILE NAME)
File names are normally set to RESET. To set serial numbers for file
names, perform the operations on the following pages.
A file name and folder name (for the folder containing the file) are
created automatically for each recorded image. File and folder names
are assigned as shown below, using a file number (0001-9999) and
folder number (100-999), respectively.
This function can be set to RESET or AUTO to determine how to assign
file and folder numbers. Select the more convenient setting to transfer
images to a computer.
RESET
This resets the file and folder numbers each time a
picture card is inserted into the camera. The file number
returns to “0001” and the folder number returns to “100”.
This is useful for managing images on different
picture cards.
AUTO
The file and folder numbers are assigned sequentially
regardless of the picture card used. This prevents
duplicate file names when managing different picture
cards. This is useful for managing all of your images
with sequential numbers.
