DSC00001.jpg - Guess what people take a picture of first
Most cameras use the DSC numbering system, starting with the first ever photo at DSC00001.
Lets see what people take photos of as soon as they unwrap their shiny new camera.
DSC00001.jpg on Google Images (potentially not safe to open if you are at work)

As you can see the results are quite interesting. What do you think? What do you take a picture of first?















Well that is true and not true. When you delete all of the images on the cam they start over at DSC00001. So these could be the images that are first taken after clearing off the cam. DSC00100.jpg Might be more interesting.

Mark, on my camera it doesn’t reset to 00001. If it did then you would be overwriting your photos if you put them in the same folder.
Maybe it depends on the camera….

I can’t stop laughing!
This is one of the best discoveries I made this year, hahahahaha…
It remembers me some P2P where people start sharing “My Documents” folder @ Work and then you can access to Internal Memos and Stuff like that…
You think it’s not true… Try it and be amazed

That’s so interesting and so very funny! I’ve taken more than 6800 pics in a matter of a year. I can’t seem to find my first pic though.

See Perez Hilton nude! He did some naked photographs for a gay cruising website before he was famous, his penis is surprisingly small. See them now at www.veryvulgar.com (before they are removed) or just click my name!!

your camera can reset back to 00001 if you wanted it to. there’s a setting. but different cameras function differently.

I believe that most modern digital cameras have a setting for this. On my Canon it is an option called “File Numbering” which I can set to either “continuous” or “auto reset”.

I’ve got a Canon 400D. On that you can specify in the options if you want it to reset back to 000001 if the card is wiped clean.

The most uninteresting photos in the entire universe and beyond. For dragging me here may you get crabs in your eyebrows…..

It doesn’t depend on the camera: the numbering never resets.

Kudos to whoever thought of this. What a great topic! How much you want to bet this becomes a website topic? Very funny!

There’s a setting on all cameras to either carry on counting or to reset counting.

Most cameras I’ve used do not reset to 01 automatically. You have to manually reset it using a buried menu command.
Excellent post…this is like how you can find unsecured IP webcams by googling the device’s default URI.

It should be standard practice that everyone takes pictures of tits as their inaugural photograph with a new camera.

Not too surprising. I imagine Google is doing something like PageRank here. All these results mean is that the most popular DSC00001.jpg files happen to be pornographic. If you randomly browse a few pages in, the photos tend to get much more mundane.

It’s pretty obvious the porn ones are fake named just for this purpose. If you change the 1 to a 2 there’s no porn going on.

Most cameras by default to not go back to 1. It’s a setting that you have to force it into when you format your card.

On my Sony DSC-P92 after the 09999th picture it reset to 000001. I don’t know why it didn’t continue to 100000 and then up to 99999 pictures, it just reset the counter from 9999. Perhaps this changed in later models.
About overwriting pictures, that’s easy - don’t put all 9999 pictures in the same folder. I make folders based on the date the pictures were taken.

Picture 2 on the whole was not nearly as interesting. I guess the excitement had worn off.

Well, Canon owners obviously aren’t such a bunch of pervs. Googling for IMG_0001.jpg will show the difference!

People are sick. Yet, at the same time, hilarious
You would think some people would try their camera out on something more normal at first.
