...happened at the Pirates' basketball game this evening down at the High School gym.
I just shot my first 10,000 shots (in fact 10,227 by actual count) on the new EOS 5D Mark II.
:-/
This poses a logistical problem of sorts, one that I've had to come to terms with before.
If I want all my photos to be sequential when I put them up on my web site ( xxxx_some_event_name.jpg -- where xxxx are four incrementing digits) what do I do when I roll over from IMG_9999.CR2 to IMG_0001.CR2?
I use the Linux rename command to rename the RAW files, dropping the IMG_ prefix, and adding a "1" prefix to the 9xxx.CR2 file names, and a "2" prefix to the 0xxx.CR2 file names, and now my shots wrap around from 19,999 to 20,000 and onward.
Cool, huh?
'Course I'll also use rename to add a more descriptive middle to the RAW files, something like _Boys_Varsity_BBall_v_Fife_120909 most likely...
