[QUOTE="crisscross, post: 58392, member: 8717"] If you use Nikon Transfer for downloading from camera to computer (and can think of absolutely no reason not to!), you can set or not set any supplementary folder structure you like (D80 & D7000). It just goes on rattling up to 9999, then starts round again. You can add hyphen, underscore or space as suffix 2nd & 3rd time round and of course download to intelligable folders on the computer, I use blocks of 500. Transfer now comes as part of Nikon View NX2.3 which is auto-opened when download is complete. Oh, but don't do as I have been doing for 5 years and set Transfer to delete after download, as once every 5 years, it ****** up the lot. In practice if you leave the images on, succeeding downloads only download the new images, so you don't get duplicates. Then just format the card from the camera menu every 2 or 3 downloads. You get the real shutter activation count by using 'Exif Tool'. It is part of GraphicConverter on mac which has many other catalogue and browsing uses, but just search for a PC version. Neither can you remove the true shutter count. [/QUOTE]
