Useful functions
File name
The camera automatically creates file names and folder names for images to
be stored in. Files can be numbered from 0001 to 9999 and folders can be
numbered from 100 to 999. Examples are shown below.
There are two settings from which you can choose: RESET or AUTO. Choose
the one that is best for you when transferring images to a PC.
File name settings
RESET
:
The file number and folder number are reset every time a new card
is inserted in the camera. The folder number returns to No. 100
and the file number returns to No. 0001. This method is useful
when grouping files on separate cards.
AUTO
:
Even if a new card is inserted, the folder number and file number
are retained from the previous card, so the same file number is not
used on different cards. This helps you to manage multiple cards.
This method is useful when you want to manage all your files with
sequential numbers.
