I'm using my iphone 4 to make a stop motion video with hundreds actually thousands of images using my stock camera app. I took over 1000 images today alone. currently my image naming is up to IMG_8725.jpg..... Am I about to have a y2k on my camera app? 😉 Or does it start over at IMG_0001.JPG? Anyone have any advice or insight?
MacBook (13-inch Late 2007), Mac OS X (10.7.5)
I do not know, but I do recall a post from a user that keep shooting after img_9999.jpg & could not import the pics from his/her phone. Can't remember if we fixed it or not, so I'd suggest that once you hit that number, you import & then delete everything in your camera roll.
I really hope someone from Apple and the iPhone team would soon adress this issue.
I noticed that after I've come to take the picture named "IMG_9999.JPG" you can still take pictures but they will be named in the spots you deleted previous pictures. Let's say you deleted picture IMG_5000.JPG, but later you took a picture so the iPhone uses this name. Then when I upload the picture to my folder on my MacBook Pro (I have all pics in the same folder) it renames it IMG_5000 1.jpg. This is quite annoying. I hope we could get like a 5 number name or add a letter or something. Or put 2 more numbers, since I guess it'll take a while to shoot a million pictures...
what happens after IMG_9999.jpg on iphones?
