Recording System

Recording Format
Design Rule for Camera File System 2.0 and EXIF 2.31*

* Supports time difference information.

JPEG (8bit), HEIF (10 bit), RAW (14 bit, Canon original)

The following three types of file numbers can be set:
(1) Continuous numbering

• The numbering of captured images continues even after you replace the card.

• When you replace the card, the numbering will be reset to start from 0001. If the new card already contains images, the numbering will continue from the last recorded image in the card.

• Resets the file number to 0001, and creates a new folder automatically.
