How can I ensure sequential numbering for iPad photos?

My DSLR numbers all images in a sequential sequence. I then always retain that number as part of any subsequent renaming. Can I force my iPad and iPhone to do the same, avoiding these seemingly randomly generated numbers which are annoyingly duplicated in the next shooting session?

How are you doing this and, why?

Where are you seeing this? When I look at the Info Window,

I see the original file name from my Nikon.


Here's one from a RAW file imported from Lightroom:

Lightroom changed the title since I used its amazing noise reduction.


I import files from my camera's memory cares to Finder folders, and then to Photos.


How do you change what's actually recorded by the camera in your "next shooting session?"
