Hi Jan,

That is curious. When you use a long filename (ie. a real long

filename, not a mixed case 8.3 name), if you ask the camera for

details on the photo, does it show the long filename you chose, or

does it show a 8.3 "mangled" name, like ABC~01.JPG.

I think you'll find it works as these kernels will be automatically

creating a "mangled" 2nd name in 8.3 format for each file with a long

name.
If you can actually see a true long filename like LongFilename.jpg on

the cameras LCD then it will warrant more investigation, and in that

case I'll try to get hold of the same model of camera and have a play

with it.
