D File Number Sequence • If a picture is taken when the current folder contains a picture numbered 9999, a new folder will be created and file numbering will restart from 0001. • When the current folder number reaches 999, the camera will no longer be able to create new folders and the shutter release will be disabled if: - The current folder contains 5000 pictures (in addition, movie recording will be disabled if the camera calculates that the number of files needed to record a movie of the maximum length would result in the folder containing over 5000 files) - The current folder contains a picture numbered 9999 (in addition, movie recording will be disabled if the camera calculates that the number of files needed to record a movie of the maximum length would result in a file numbered over 9999) To resume shooting, choose [Reset] for Custom Setting d7 [File number sequence] and then either format the current memory card or insert a new memory card. D Folder Numbering • If a picture is taken when the current folder contains 5000 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, a new folder will be created and selected as the current folder. • The new folder is assigned a number one higher than current folder number. If a folder with that number already exists, the new folder will be assigned the lowest available folder number. 612 Menu Guide > A Custom Settings
