GR II File Number Bug?

Hi Torsten -

I did get a reply from Ricoh Tech Support - looks like they are acknowledging it now and will address it in the next firmware update, although they didn't say when that will be.

Here is the exact text I received:

>>>>>>>>>>
Thank you for contacting RICOH.

I wanted to let you know that RICOH Japan has confirmed that the file numbering issue in your GR ll is a firmware glitch and that they are working on a firmware update that will address the issue. They didn't say when the firmware will be available. When new firmware is released you will be able to download it at:

If you are in need of further assistance, please respond to this email or call our technical support center at 800-877-0155.

Sincerely,
Randall S.

So what I do is to take a blank image on the SD card I most use in the GR, save it as the first image, lock it, and it just stays there. Then, for now, an 'Erase All' will not erase a locked image, thus clearing the SD card except for that one blank image, and the new images then continue on with the correct numbering.

Hope this helps.

Chuck

Thanks. I've seen some other posts that confirm formatting as a way of deleting will leave the file numbering continuing on. I't when you do a 'Delete All' from the playback function that the GR II's seem to reset the counter to zero. Can you confirm if yours resets to zero after a 'Delete All' vs. reformatting?

Thanks

If you have a new GR II, can you confirm whether file numbering continues on properly - or does erasing an SD card reset file numbering back to 0001 - no matter the settings in setup? I received a new one, had that problem, returned it, waiting for a firmware update or fix as I can't live with duplicate file numbers. There is a new firmware update - 1.10. Perhaps that fixes the numbering problem. Trying to confirm. 1.10 apparently fixes a wi-fi problem as well. Thanks for any feedback.

I talked to Ricoh support. GR II release to new for them to have any calls about it yet. I took it back to retailer (one of the big camera stores in L.A.) They pulled two more and we tested at the store. All had same problem. 100% convinced it's a firmware flaw. So in short, until Ricoh fixes it, erasing images from any SD card resets the file number to 0001. No settings circumvent that.

Hi All - New to the forum. Just took delivery of a GR II (previously owned a GR). Deleting all images from an SD card on the new GR II seems to automatically start numbering files at 0001 after each delete. Setup>Card Sequence No. to On (or Off) makes no difference. After clearing a card, all files start over at 100-0001. I've reformatted cards, re-formatted Internal Memory. No change. Firmware bug perhaps? Maybe I'm missing something? Any ideas greatly appreciated.
