The pictures you take are automatically assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900 and storedin folders of 100 images each. Each folder on the CF card is numbered from 100 to 998.Automatic file numbering can be either by continuous numbering or auto reset numbering (thedefault setting is continuous numbering):(1) Continuous: Numbering is continuousbetween cards, so that the firstfile number assigned on a newCF card is one more than the lastfile number assigned on theprevious CF card.(2) Auto reset: Each time you insert a new CFcard, the file number resets to itsdefault value (100-0001).

For details about file numbers, see “Basic Terminology for Digital Cameras andDigital Photography” (131). Because pictures taken using continuous shooting must be stored in the samefolder, there may in some cases be more than 101 images in a folder.Because continuous numbering avoids duplication of image file numbers, thissetting is convenient for processing images on computers.
