Everytime I get a new camera the first thing I do (and presumably most people do as well) is get into the menus and set it up to my liking. Among those settings is always some method for file numbering.
I always set mine to continuous. This means the first photo I take is numbered 0001, the second photo is 0002 and so on until 9999. Then it rolls back around to 0000 like an odometer.
Today I officially ‘rolled’ my camera. That means I’ve taken over 10,000 pictures with it. I’ve had the this one a little over two years now (27 months to be slightly more precise) and as of today have taken 10,037 photos. That works out to 371 photos each month since I bought it.
I might have a problem.
Amazing the way digital has changed the way we shoot.
