Then you need to establish a work-flow that fits for you. I *always*
rename *immediately* after transferring from camera to hard-drive so I
don't have your problem. If I don't rename, I have much difficulty
retrieving older images as my "old foggy syndrome" is deserved and
cultivated for 74+ years.
I also lowercase and add gps data before importing to dt, contrary to dt's
not altering originals, but that is my decision and always performed on a
duplicate before destroying the pristine copy.
Still requires adapting your work-flow to the tools you use and using them
properly.
