I've never passed 10,000 frames in my M8 to prove that as yet. That is, unless you reset the camera from the MENU. You have a lot of options for when batch renaming (as Sonny mentioned) the ones that you have duplicated of course. Here is the M8 procedure for when you have access to a computer again Look at Post #6 by Shootist in this L Camera Forum thread http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m8-forum/37107-how-re-set-image-file-numbers.html?langid=3 Cheers, Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 7 May 2012 23:44, Frank <red735i at earthlink.net> wrote: > Geoff.
