I did it once to check how it works.

I think its best not to reset it at all. Resetting gives an unnecessary burden to manage photos in a pc by not having unique file names. It's better to rename them, whenever you need to give a meaningful filename. Preferably in your PC using your favourite pictire management software. (I use ACDSee)

DSC stands for Digital Still Camera. So the prefix 'DSC' wont change after you reaching the 9999th (or something). Instead I think it will automatically be reset to DSC0001 (or DSC0000).

However it is interesting to think what will happen if all file names of the photos (DSC0000 to DSC9999) are still present in the memory card? Will the phone display an error message such as: "Internal error. File name already exists."?
