I am using the attached perl script
(http://www.richtmarke.de/dl/date-rename.pl in case the attachment gets
stripped off) originally written by Norman Walsh to rename files (I
modified it slightly to create unique names in case of collisions). It
uses ExifTool to read the composite tag SubSecDateTimeOriginal
(combining the EXIF tags DateTimeOriginal  and SubsecTimeOriginal) if
available. More on using milliseconds with ExifTool can be found here:
http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/exiftool/forum/index.php?topic=2736.0

For a Canon EOS 40D the script renames files from IMG_*.CR2 to something
like 20150524-112555-01.CR2.

Here are four sample files taken in continuous shooting mode all within
a single second:

http://www.richtmarke.de/dl/20150524-112555-01.cr2
http://www.richtmarke.de/dl/20150524-112555-18.cr2
http://www.richtmarke.de/dl/20150524-112555-33.cr2
http://www.richtmarke.de/dl/20150524-112555-49.cr2

For me the milliseconds mostly help to create globally unique file names
without the need to introduce arbitrary numbers or labels for  images
taken within the same second.
