It may have been a menu choice to set the next sequence number. I think one time I copied a file from another card onto the card I was using, and the camera took the next number. Can't remember if that was a Nikon, though. If all else fails a Nikon repair shot might be able to set the number for you. Most of the imaging programs now make renumbering files pretty seamless on import. Good luck. I know what you mean about file numbering. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+drodgers=casefarms.com at leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+drodgers=casefarms.com at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of James Laird Sent: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 4:39 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: [Leica] OT: Help with Nikon File Numbering I have a problem that I hope all the Nikon users on the list might help me solve. I have a project I've been doing for a year or two for which I need all the photos in numerical sequence for a database. Not a problem, I thought, just set my D200's file numbering sequence to ON. Worked like a charm. But I recently purchased a new Nikon body to use instead and the new body wants to start file numbering at DSC_0001. (If forgot to mention the new camera takes SD cards instead of the CF cards the D200 uses). Anyone know of a trick to fool the file numbering system to start at DSC_4020 instead? I really hate the thought of having to rename each file when I transfer it. Help! Jim Laird _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
