Resetting the File Number

See Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode (p. 238).
The images you shoot are automatically assigned file numbers. You
can select how the file number is assigned.
A number one higher than the last one recorded is assigned
to the next image. This is convenient for managing all your
images together on a computer because you avoid file name
duplication when changing folders or memory cards.*

* When a blank memory card is used. If a memory card with recorded
data is used, the 7-digit number for the last recorded folder and
image is compared with the last one on the card, and the larger of
the two is utilized as the basis for new images.
The image and folder number are reset to the starting value
(100-0001).* This is convenient for managing images on a
folder-by-folder basis.
Auto Reset
* When a blank memory card is used. If a memory card with recorded
