(folder number) followed by five alphanumeric characters. A folder can contain

new folder with the folder number increased by one is created automatically.
Also. if manual reset %205) is executed, a new folder will be created
automatically. Folders numbered from 100 to 999 can be created.

With the card open on the screen, create a new folder named "DClM". Open
the DCIM folder and create as many folders as necessary to save and
organize your images. The folder name must follow the format "10OABC_D".
The first three digits are the folder number, from 100 to 999. The next five
characters can be any combination of upper- and lower-case letters from A to
Z. numerals, and tile underscore "_", The space cannot be used. Also note
that tv ,o folder names cannot share the same three-digit folder number (for
example,"lOOABC_D"and"lOOW_XYZ" even if the other five characters in
each name are different.

The image flies wiii be numbered from 0001 to 9999 in the order the
images are taken, then saved in a folder. You can change how the file
number is assigned.

available settings are described below.
Select the option, then press <_)>.
®_[Continuous]: The file numbering continues in sequence even
after you replace the card or create a folder.
Even after you replace the card or create a new folder, the file
numbering continues in sequence up to 9999. This is convenient
when you want to save images numbered anywhere between 0001
to 9999 in multiple cards or folders into one folder in your personal
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 in the card or
folder. If you want to use continuous file numbering, it is
recommended that you use a newly-formatted card each time.

When you replace the card or create a folder, the file numbering
restarts from 0001 for the new images saved. This is convenient if
you want to organize images according to cards or folders.
However, 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 in the
card or folder. If you want to save images with the file numbering
starting from 0001, use anewly formatted card each time.

taken yesterday and the ones taken today, for example. After the
manual reset, the file numbering returns to continuous or auto reset.
