Do canon DSLR's count past 10000 ?

[ron c sunshine coast,qld,a]

I've read many times that the consumer DSLR's only count to 9999

before resetting (and even then only if you have it set to 'file

numbering continuous'.

<BR>I've also heard that even canon can't tell how many shots a body

has taken but i'm not sure if that is official or not.

<P>One odd thing i've noticed is that when my 300D went past 10000

images taken,it completely changed the naming system on the computer

.The first images i took were numbered (for example) 101_0143 (143rd

shot taken) while the current images are named like IMG_8947

(18947th shot taken)

<P>Do the consumer DSLR's have a seudo ten thousand counter after

all?

<P>To confuse the issue further i must tell you that somewhere

around the ten thousand mark i updated zoombrowser to a newer

version which may very likley have had an effect on the naming

system.I'm curious what others have found with their cameras

My 10D is now refusing to count. "age is not important" it says...

I started saying the same thing when I got old.

Age is like carats. The more, the better.

 

Happy shooting,

Yakim.

Mine rolled over at 10000.

Yes, this is what happened.
