File numbering continues even after CF card replacement
Even after you replace the CF card, the file numbering continues in
sequence up to 9999. This is convenient when you want to save the
images numbered anywhere between 0001 to 9999 in one folder in your
personal computer.
If the replacement CF card contains images recorded previously, the file
numbering of the new images might continue from the file numbering of
the existing images in the card. If you want to use continuous file
numbering, you should use a newly-formatted CF card each time.
