Photo saves?

Hello all,

Curious on this one. I just noticed that when I shoot video on the iphone 5, it saves it IMG_xxxx.mov but why can't the photos be saved as such. If I send pictures to someone via email, I'll choose the actual size but the person I'm sending them to gets Photo1.jpg, Photo2.jpg, etc.

This is annoying when having to rename photos so they don't overwrite each other. Why can't the iphone save images like a camera would in a sequence or is there a way to do so?

Also, it does that naming scheme if I even save a photo to my camera roll and then email it, it gives it the default Photo1, etc.

Are there any apps that will circumvent this or a setting to change somewhere?

Thanks,

Keith
