The images you shoot are automatically assigned file numbers. You
can select how the file number is assigned.

Resetting the File Number

Continuous

A number one higher than the last one recorded is assigned
to the next image. This is convenient for managing all your
images together on a computer because you avoid file name
duplication when changing folders or memory cards.*

* When a blank memory card is used. If a memory card with recorded

data is used, the 7-digit number for the last recorded folder and
image is compared with the last one on the memory card, and the
larger of the two is utilized as the basis for new images.

Auto Reset

The image and folder number are reset to the starting value
(100-0001).* This is convenient for managing images on a
folder-by-folder basis.

* When a blank memory card is used. If a memory card with recorded

data is used, the number following the 7-digit number for the last
recorded folder and image on the memory card is utilized as the
basis for new images.
