I rename the files at import, too, but the names reflect the subject of the shoot.

My renaming pattern for the K-7 (which has less than 10,000 total shots so far) is: {Date (YYYYMMDD)>>}-K7-0{Filename number suffix>>} So, for example: IMGP9942.dng -> 20130511-K7-09942.dng When the file number rolls over 9999 to 0001, I'll update the renaming pattern with a "1" instead of a "0" before the "Filename number suffix".
