[Tex/LaTex] Problem with subfigure numbering using ContinuedFloat

numberingsubfloats

I am using the subfig package for including subfigures into my thesis. That alone has been going without problem.

However, as soon as I use the \ContinuedFloat command in order to split a figure over a single page, the following figure, which also uses the \ContinuedFloat command, just carries on with the subfigure numbering (e.g. Figure 2c, 2d instead of 2a, 2b).

If a figure without the \ContinuedFloat command is inserted it also continues the numbering (e.g. 3f) and only the next figure without this command starts with the normal labelling (e.g. 4a).

This is a minimal working example.

\documentclass[12pt,twoside,a4paper]{report}

\usepackage{setspace} 
\usepackage[inner=3cm, outer=3cm, top=1.0in, bottom=1.0in]{geometry} %
\geometry{bindingoffset=0.5cm}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[]{subfig}
\usepackage{float} 
\usepackage[font=small,labelfont=bf]{caption}


\begin{document}

\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=14cm]{...figue code...}}
\caption[]{figure1}\label{figure1}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[H]
\ContinuedFloat
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=12cm]{...figue code...}}
\caption[figure1]{figure1}
\end{figure}



\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=14cm]{...figue code...}}\\
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=10cm]{...figue code...}}\\
\caption{[]figure2}\label{figure2}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[H]
\ContinuedFloat
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=10cm]{...figue code...}}
\caption[figure3]{figure3} \label{figure3}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=10cm]{...figue code...}}
\caption[figure3]{figure3}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\subfloat[]{\includegraphics[width=10cm]{...figue code...}}
\caption[figure4]{figure4}\label{figure4}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

This question has been cross-posted to LaTeX-Community.org and there's a possible solution.

The effect is caused by using the float package and the H option. Removing H and using !htbp instead (or less) fixed it for me.
