I used to have a Nikon 7200 and my photos were numbered all the way to 9999 (with a specific file name). On my D780 every time I delete the photos on my card after loading them to LR, the count on the camera starts over. I download the next photos I take into my LR temporary file where I edit them but when I go to move them into my organized catalogue I keep getting the message that the new ones are duplicates. This means I have to change their file names. I would rather just keep numbering the photos as I did when I had my 7200. I only want to rename specific photos.

I have looked at the menu on the D780 and the only relevant item I can see is File Naming under the Shooting Menu. However that is just for the file name. I don't see any way to change the sequencing. Any ideas how to do this?

Thanks.

Thank you so much. I never thought to look under that setting. This is such a great forum for so many reasons. Thanks to you Steve for starting it.
