Turn the dial to select [c File numbering], then press . 2 Select the file numbering method. Turn the dial to select [Continuous], [Auto reset], or [Manual reset], then press . Continuous The file numbering continues in sequence even after you replace the CF card. This prevents images from having the same file number, so image management with a personal computer is easier.
