hello,

ono of reasons for me to try Dowloader pro is fact that I shoot sometimes raw (NEF), sometimes JPG and sometimes NEF+JPG. My aim is to keep NEF+JPG pairs with same filemane other than NEF/JPG extension... Downloader Pro (or was that Breeze Brovser?) comes pretty close to this, however I cannot figure out when downloading photos how to start image numbering from a desired number? For example, if my last photo in folder is D200600823, how should I execute download so first downloaded image becomes D200600824?

Thanks,

Greetings from Belgrade,

S.

It isn't possible to use DLPro to number multiple downloads consecutively because this would make it impossible for it to keep track of images that have already been downloaded.
With Nikon DSLRs (and Canon 1D series DSLRs) you can use the %r8 token to extract shutter activation count (the number of images the camera has taken from new). Alternatively you can set your camera to use continuous numbering and simply use the image numbers the camera writes.
