I have had my M8 for a few months and have set it to number photos continuously. All has gone well until this weekend when I used it on a trip to Kyoto. At the end of every day, I downloaded the photos I shot into my laptop and deleted the photos from the SD cards. However, I found that the numbers of some of the photos I shot the following day would overlap with those of some of the photos I had shot the previous day. Has any one else experienced this problem?

Incidentally, this started to happen after I got the camera back from servicing.
 
Mine reset to zero a couple of times in the first few months, but has been numbering continuously for well over a year now. I half-recall reading that this was something to do with not formatting the cards before using them. Whether that is related to your problem or not, I cannot say.

Cheers,

Roger
 
Thank you for your quick reply.

That may well be the cause of the problem because on this trip I started to use a new Sandisk Ultra II SD card without formatting it. However, when I discovered the problem, I did ask myself if it had anything to do with my not having formatted the card and therefore I formatted the card. The problem persisted even after I had formatted the card.
