Changing the File Number Assignment
Images you shoot are automatically assigned file numbers in the order they
were taken, from 0001 – 9999, and saved to folders of up to 2,000 images.
You can change the file number assignment.
● Choose [File Numbering], then press the
qr buttons to choose an option.
Any previously registered start-up image will be overwritten when
registering a new start-up image.
Register the start-up image or sounds with the included
software
The dedicated operation sounds and start-up images on the included software
can be registered to the camera. Refer to the Software Guide for details.
Continuous
Even if you shoot using a new
memory card, the file numbers
are assigned consecutively until
an image with the number 9999
is taken/saved.
Auto Reset
If you replace the memory card
with a new one, or a new folder
is created, file numbering
begins with 0001 again.
• If you use a memory card already containing images, the newly assigned
file numbers may continue the existing numbering for both [Continuous]
and [Auto Reset]. If you want to start over with file number 0001, format
the memory card before use (p. 22).
• Refer to the Software Guide for information regarding folder structure or
image types.
