I'm not Graydon, but you mount it on your computer and rename it like any other file.

Thanks much Graydon. How would I be able to name an image "on the memory card?"

Thanks,

Pentax know I am displeased and anxious to learn the
cause.

You can set the shot counter to anything by:

rename an image file on the memory card to imgp9999.dng or
_igp9999.dng

sticking this memory card in the camera

power on the camera

take a picture

power off the camera

remove the memory card

rename that image file to whatever number is one less than
the number
you want

put the card back in the camera

take a picture

voila!

(Haven't actually done this, but it's a logical consequence
of "resets
to the higher value if there's a higher value on the
card").

My current K20D shot counter value is the nicely
symmetrical 3553; I
can't remember how many times the counter has been around,
though; it's
either twice or thrice.  The 3553 is not an indication
of relatively low
usage.
