6 File Names & Printing
Images or video clips are assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9999, and
folders are assigned folder numbers from 100 to 999
Folder File Capacity
Each folder usually contains up to 9999 images. If a photo is taken when the folder with
highest folder number contains a picture file number equal to or greater than 9999, the
camera creates a new folder by adding one to the current folder number. For example, if
the current folder is “100DICAM” the new folder is named “101DICAM.”
If the highest folder number is 999 and the highest file number exceeds 9999, the camera
will display the warning message “FILE NUMBER OVER.”
If “FILE NUMBER OVER” appears, follow one of the two methods below:
1. Format the memory. The folder number and file number are initialized and renumbered
from 100 and 0001 respectively.
2. Turn on File Number Reset in the camera menu and plug in a new memory card.

inserted. New images recorded on SD cards with existing files are assigned the
next available number.

are initialized and the count starts from 100 and 0001. If the file Number
Rest is set to OFF, the numbering starts after format with the last file and
folder number stored in the camera.
