File Numbering - Canon PowerShot G1 X User Manual

File Numbering

Your shots are automatically numbered in sequential order (0001 – 9999) and
saved in folders that store up to 2,000 images each. You can change how the
camera assigns file numbers.
• Regardless of the option selected in this setting, shots may be numbered
consecutively after the last number of existing images on newly inserted
memory cards. To start saving shots from 0001, use an empty (or formatted
(p. 171)) memory card.
• Refer to the Software Guide for information on the card folder structure and
image formats.
Date-Based Image Storage
Instead of saving images in folders created each month, you can have the
camera create folders each day you shoot to store shots taken that day.
Adjusting Basic Camera Functions
Choose [File Numbering], and then choose
an option.
Images are numbered
consecutively (until the 9999th shot
Continuous
is taken/saved) even if you switch
memory cards.
Image numbering is reset to 0 if you
Auto Reset switch memory cards, or when a
new folder is created.
Choose [Create Folder], and then choose
[Daily].
Images will now be saved in folders created
on the shooting date.
