Nikon file names - What have I done?

[doublem1]

I'm not sure what I have done but when I take photos now they are named differently. I have about 100 photos that I took a few weeks ago on a card and when I take photos now they start at 001. The new photos are named 102ND**** where as the previous ones are and always have been 101ND***. Now, I just tried reformatting the card and they are still named 102ND. What have I done?

Basically you'd gone past 101ND9999 and by default the camera has started the "102ND" sequence. A quick Google suggests that you can change this behaviour in your menu settings, but that will depend on your camera model.

Personally I'd leave things as is or you might end up with identical file names for different photos.

That explains it! I think i'll keep it as it is then. Thank you.
