Today I found out that Mavics camera resets file names on DJI0999 -> DJI0001! The name is misleading I was thinking that it should be DJI0999 -> DJI1000.....DJI9999->DJI0001 ;)

... I allways give the photographs a more "logical" name, in most cases starting with year/month/day/-/number/shortdiscription....  20170906-001-placeX.jpg

More phones do, but Mavic has no such option and doing it by hand (even with some tools) is beyond me I have developed during years good system of storing my photos, so there no problem, Just Observation

You can create a small script and  store it in the same folder the files for renaming live in:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
@echo off
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET old=Vacation2010
SET new=December
for /f "tokens=*" %%f in ('dir /b *.jpg') do (
  SET newname=%%f
  SET newname=!newname:%old%=%new%!
  move "%%f" "!newname!"
)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
This will automatically rename files in the folder as they are added.
Alternatively, there are any number of free applications that have built-in batch renaming of files:

The name will be reset to the beginning after taking 999 pictures. That is the index logic.

Yes, but why then names are DJI0001 and not DJI001 than?
