File Numbering
The captured images saved in a folder are assigned a file number from 0001 to 9999. You can change how the image files are numbered.
(Example)
(1) File number
-
Set the item.
- Select [Numbering].
- Select [Continuous] or [Auto reset].
- Select [OK] to create a new folder, and the file number will start with 0001.
: Caution
- If the file number in folder 999 reaches 9999, shooting will not be possible even if the card still has free space. After a message requesting you to replace the card is displayed, switch to a new card.
Continuous
For continuous file numbering regardless of switching cards or creating folders
Even after you replace the card or create a new folder, the file numbering continues in sequence up to 9999. This is useful when you want to save images numbered anywhere between 0001 to 9999 on multiple cards or in multiple folders into one folder on a computer.
If the replacement card or existing folder already contains images recorded previously, the file numbering of the new images may continue from the file numbering of the existing images on the card or in the folder. If you want to use continuous file numbering, it is recommended that you use a newly formatted card each time.

For restarting file numbering from 0001 after switching cards or creating folders
When you replace the card or create a folder, the file numbering restarts from 0001 for the new images saved. This is useful if you want to organize images by cards or folders.
If the replacement card or existing folder already contains images recorded previously, the file numbering of the new images may continue from the file numbering of the existing images on the card or in the folder. If you want to save images with the file numbering starting from 0001, use a newly formatted card each time.

Manual Reset
For resetting file numbering to 0001 or starting from 0001 in new folders
When you reset the file numbering manually, a new folder is created automatically and the file numbering of images saved to that folder starts from 0001.
This is useful, for example, if you want to use different folders for the images taken yesterday and the ones taken today.
