I use an SD1100IS and have noticed when I trim or edit the colour of a photo, the new photos get stored at the last. This can be frustrating as you normally do these type of trimmings and colour changes at the end of the day when a load of photos are taken. You really want that newly edited photograph beside the old one, for comparing like-with-like. I've went through the manual and can't find an option which allows you to keep the new photograph beside the photo, please help!

Can't help you there, as I generally do my edits on the computer. But I wouldn't think there would be a way, since you can't have duplicate file names. Maybe sort (on the computer) by "Date picture taken"?

Cheers Jon. The camera was bought for my parents and they're not computer literate, so they just edit 'in camera' before getting the prints developed. Still, it's a handy feature, the 'in camera' trimming and colour correction.

If you're asking about doing it 'in-camera', I can't help you there, but you can arrange the files in a folder in your computer in several different ways. If you save the file by just adding an "a" to the end of the original file name, you can right click in the open space in a folder, drag your cursor over "arrange icons by" and then select "name". This will arrange the files in the folder as you have requested.
