Re: Funny numbers
Fairly standard behaviour. I accidentally bumped the file numbering on my D300 by 2000 frames this way. -Adam On Fri, Aug 1, 2008 at 6:08 AM, Jens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello list. > > As I started using my new K20D (man, is that nice), I put in a SD card > containing images made with my K10D. > > I soon discovered that the K20D started numbering the files, using the first > available number, e.i. 6763, which was one higher than the latest K10D image. > So, the K20D never started with number 0001.

Re: Re: Funny numbers
Hi Jens, You don't need to stick to 1 - Uncheck the checkbox in "File No." in "Memory" submenu of "Capture" menu. 2 - Format a card (so that there are no pictures in it for sure) 3 - Take a shot (that will be numbered IMGP0001, or something like thet) 4 - Check the checkbox in "File No." in "Memory" submenu of "Capture" menu. You've then reset file numbering to 001. In step 2 above, should you then put any picture file into the card (e.g. IMGP4046.PEF), the next picture will get the next number (e.g. IMGP4047.PEF). So, put a picture file with a number of your choice for resetting the camera to any number you feel comfortable with (eg. the actual number of pictures you've shot with the K20D). BTW, that's what you already did unintentionally when leaving the K10D pictures in the card and you can do it again for fixing the file numbering.

Re: Funny numbers
Hello Jens, I understand that's the standard behaviour for any camera (K20D or other) recognizing one or more pictures already on the card. Numbering will go ahead from the existing figures.

Re: Funny numbers
I think if you had of formated the card in the K20, you would have started at 001. The camera picks up the last number used, although you can turn that off in the menus, and always start at 001.

Funny numbers
Hello list. As I started using my new K20D (man, is that nice), I put in a SD card containing images made with my K10D. I soon discovered that the K20D started numbering the files, using the first available number, e.i. 6763, which was one higher than the latest K10D image. So, the K20D never started with number 0001. Strange, isn't it??
