Hello Rob, When I had only one *istD originally, I was going on my merry way with no issues, then got the second one and encountered the problem you are facing. Since my numbers were reasonably far apart, I was ok, until...they start to overlap. What you are suggesting is just postponing the problem - not fixing it. What I finally concluded was that I needed to rename the files upon download rather than rely on the camera bodies to do it. So I set them to reset the counter each time a blank card was placed in it and started naming the files on download according to either a job # or a running # for personal stuff. This has worked out much better.
There are even some tools out there to rename during the downlaod - they can do it based on exif data (timestamp or something) or a name that you supply. Just my $0.02 -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, February 19, 2007, 5:04:53 AM, you wrote: RB> IS there an easy way to manually set the next file number?
