Continues the file numbering sequ ence even after the card is 
replaced or a new folder is created.
Even after you replace the card or create a new folder, the file 
numbering continues in sequence up to  9999. This is convenient when 
you want to save images numbered  anywhere between 0001 to 9999 in 
multiple cards or folders into one folder in your computer.
If the replacement card or existi ng folder already contains images 
recorded previously, the file number ing of the new images may continue 
from the file numbering of the exis ting images on the card or in the 
folder. If you want to use continuous file numbering, it is recommended 
that you use a newly-formatted card each time.

The file numbering restarts from  0001 each time the card is 
replaced or a new folder is created.
When you replace the card or  create a folder, the file numbering restarts from 0001 for 
the new images saved. Th is is convenient if you want to organize  images according to 
cards or folders.
If the replacement card or exis ting folder already contains images recorded previously, 
the file numbering of the new  images may continue from the file numbering of the 
existing images on the card or  in the folder. If you want to save images with the file 
numbering starting from 0001, use  a newly formatted card each time.
To reset the file numbering to 0001 or to start from file number 
0001 in a new folder.
When you reset the file numbering manually,  a new folder is created automatically and 
the file numberin g of images saved  to that folder starts from 0001.
This is convenient if you want to use diff erent folders for the images taken yesterday 
and the ones taken today, for example. Af ter the manual reset, the file numbering 
returns to continuous or auto reset. (There  will be no manual reset confirmation screen.)

The range of reproducible colors is called the color space. With this 
camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or 
Adobe RGB. For normal shooting, sRGB is recommended.
In Basic Zone modes, sRGB is set automatically.
1Select [Color space].
  Under the [ z3] tab, select [Color 
space ], then press < 0>.
2Set the desired color space.
  Select [ sRGB] or [Adobe RGB ], then 
press < 0>.
This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other 
industrial uses. This setting is not recommended if you are not familiar 
with image processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File 
System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). T he image will look very subdued in a 
sRGB computer environment and wit h printers not compatible with 
Design rule for Camera File System  2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). Post-
processing of the image with computer software will therefore be 
required.
3  Setting the Color Space N
Adobe RGB
 If the captured still photo was shot  in the Adobe RGB color space, the 
first character in th e file name will be an underscore “_”.
 
The ICC profile is not appended. Refer to explanations about the ICC 
profile in the Software Instruction Manual (p.459) on the CD-ROM.

Advanced Operations
In Creative Zone modes, you 
can set the shutter speed and/
or aperture to set the exposure 
as desired. By changing the 
camera settings, you can 
obtain various results.
 The  M icon at the upper right of the page title indicates that 
the function is available only in Creative Zone modes ( d/
s /f /a/F ).
  After you press the shutter  button halfway and let go, the 
exposure values will remain di splayed in the viewfinder and 
on the LCD panel for 4 sec. (0 ).
  For the functions settable in each shooting mode, see page 
404.
Set the < R> switch downward.

The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit 
the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE.
*< d> stands for Program.* AE stands for Auto Exposure.
1Set the Mode Dial to < d>.
2Focus the subject.
  Look through the viewfinder and aim 
the AF point over the subject. Then 
press the shutter button halfway.
X When focus is achieved, the focus 
confirmation light < o> on the 
viewfinder’s bottom right will light up
(when in One-Shot AF mode).
X The shutter speed and aperture will 
be set automatically and displayed in 
the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
3Check the display.
  A standard exposure will be obtained 
as long as the shutter speed and 
aperture display do not blink.
4Take the picture.
 Compose the shot and press the 
shutter button completely.

d: Program AE
 If the “ 30” shutter speed and  the lower f/number 
blink, it indica tes underexposure.
Increase the ISO speed or use flash.
  If the “ 8000” shutter speed and th e higher f/number 
blink, it indica tes overexposure.
Lower the ISO speed or  use an ND filter (sold 
separately) to reduce the am ount of light entering the 
lens.
Differences Between < d> and  Modes
In the < A> mode, many functions, such as  the AF operation and metering 
mode, are set automatically to prevent  spoiled shots. The functions you can 
set are limited. With < d> mode, only the shutter speed and aperture are set 
automatically. You can f reely set the AF operation, metering mode, and 
other functions (p.404).
Program Shift
  In the Program AE mode , you can freely change the shutter speed and 
aperture combination (P rogram) set automatically by the camera while 
maintaining the same exposure.  This is called Program shift.
  To shift the program, press the shu tter button halfway, then turn the 
 dial until the desired shutter  speed or aperture is displayed.
  Program shift will be canceled automa tically when the metering timer 
( 0) ends (exposure settin g display turns off).
  Program shift cannot be used with flash.

In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically 
sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure suiting the brightness 
of the subject. This is called shutter- priority AE. A faster shutter speed 
can freeze the action or a moving s ubject. A slower shutter speed can 
create a blurred effect, giving the impression of motion.
* < s > stands for Time value.
1Set the Mode Dial to < s>.
2Set the desired shutter speed.
 While looking at the LCD panel, turn 
the < 6> dial.
3Focus the subject.
