I had this same problem when I started swapping SD cards btwn the DS and an Optio. The much newer Optio had much higher file # than it should have.

Program will reveal the # of shutter actuations by reading EXIF data. Once I figured out the values of each camera, I put a blank card in each camera and took one pic each. Put the card into a card reader & back into the PC. After re-naming the IMGPxxxx to match the # of shutter actuations, I put the card back in the camera and the count started from there.

I'd like to read what others have to say on this point if cards were not exclusive to a camera body.
