[QUOTE="yukonprince, post: 86298, member: 11087"] I just bought a M5100 with the 18 - 300mm lens (my previous camera was a Sony A350) I find it hard to find my problem on the index page probably because I do not exactly know how to look for it :) ... [LIST] [*]Every time I download my photos the numbering goes back to DSC_001 [LIST] [*]Is there a way to fix that? [*]Is there a way to rename images as I load them on my computer - say from DSC_001 on my memory card to Fall001, Fall002 etc? [*]Any suggestions on a better way on numbering or better way to do things? [/LIST] [*]Default camera settings [LIST] [*]Should I keep these as is until I get familiar with the camera or should some be changed right away? [/LIST] [*]Any suggestions on how to best learn about my camera? [LIST] [*]Should I just start on page 1 of the user manual and go through it? Any suggestions on what I should pay special attention to? [*]Are there any online courses or ??? that could help me on the use of my camera? [*]I am a bit above "beginner" - any recommendations on a photo course? I went to a six week (two hours/wk) beginners course a few years back that really helped but now would like to learn a bit more. [/LIST] [*]I noticed that when I should on AUTO the flash comes up often even though it is daylight and quite bright - is this normal? [LIST] [*]I have gone to the flash off position to stop this [/LIST] [*]Is there anyway to find out if there are other Nikonites in the area I live in (Fredericton, NB, Canada)? [*]Any words of other wisdom would be greatly appreciated! [/LIST]Thanks!!!! [/QUOTE]
