Hi Mark

I have lived with this problem since I bought my 20D about 2 years ago Mark, and I still dont know what the reason for this is, even though I have had it back to Canon a few times!! Everything else works a treat, it is just the pesky numbering system

I have no idea of the reason for it happening and you are the only other person I know who has said they have this same issue

kind regards

chris

Anyone seen this - can't find a reference in the Canon manual for what would have caused it or how to fix it:

I noticed about a few months ago that on my Canon 20D camera the image file names are now coming up on the card as

"_mgXXXXXX.CR2" and "_mgXXXXXX.jpg" instead of "imgXXXXX.cr2" and "imgXXXXX.jpg"

maybe coincidentally that was at the time I set it to shoot simultaneous RAW & JPG but changing it back has no effect.

not machine dependant as CF cards put in both WIndows and Mac machines come up with this new name format

not a big issue but annoying none the less.
