On my Nikon cameras I have the file naming set to the default _DSC.
This morning whilst checking out an issue with a file _DSC5148.NEF being incorrectly dated on my hard drive (my fault) I noticed after a search for the incorrectly dated file name, that I had two files with the same name in different places, I store my files in directories/folders named by year, eg 2018, 2019 etc.
It seems that file naming does not increment to _DSD when it has reached 10,000 images as I expected.
None of the Olympus cameras in the house do not repeat the file name when going over the 10,000 limit, they increment one character at each 10,000 image number transition.
Am I doing something wrong or is the default not to increment the file name from _DSC to _DSD?
What do others do about this weird file naming situation?
The D500 manual pages 283, 288 are of no assistance.
