adding 1 to the last file number used. This option controls 
whether file numbering continues from the last number used 
when a new folder is created, the memory card is formatted, or a 
new memory card is inserted in the camera.

Description
On
When a new folder is created, the memory card formatted, or 
a new memory card inserted in the camera, file numbering 
continues from the last number used. If a photograph is 
taken when the current folder contains a photograph 
numbered 9999, a new folder will be created automatically 
and file numbering will begin again from 0001.
Off
File numbering is reset to 0001 when a new folder is created, 
the memory card is formatted, or a new memory card is 
inserted in the camera. Note that a new folder is created 
automatically if a photograph is taken when the current 
folder contains 999 photographs.
Reset
Resets the file numbering for On to 0001 and creates a new 
folder with the next photograph taken.

If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains either 999 
photographs or a photograph numbered 9999, the shutter-release 
button will be disabled and no further photographs can be taken. 
Choose Reset for File number sequence and then either format the 
current memory card or insert a new memory card.
