Advanced Shooting T

NAME RESET (Initial setting)
When the card is switched, folder and file numbers restart from default
setting.
Example:
AUTO FILE
When the card is switched, the folder number remains the same, and
the file number follows the file number on the previous card.
When copying files to a computer, even from multiple cards or when you
have shot a great many pictures, the files numbers will not overlap.
However, when you have shot 9999 pictures, the counter returns to
0001.
The same folder name is maintained so that when images are copied to
the computer, the original folder and the new folder will have the same
folder name and the images will be stored in the same folder via the
copy overwrite function.
HELP
• When you have reached the maximum file capacity of 9999 files, or the
maximum folder capacity of 999 folders, the number of storable pictures
goes to zero and no further shooting is possible even if space remains on
the card. Change the card at this time. You can continue to shoot, the folder
number will be set to 100 and the file numbering will re-start from 0001,
regardless of the previous folder and file number settings.
NOTE
• If a different card containing previously stored files is inserted and the
number of files on the new card is greater than the last card, the file
numbering system changes. Subsequent photo files will be numbered in
sequence following the highest number on the inserted card.
