Switching from Nikon, my wife just bought an OM-1, and neither of us has been able to make much sense of the file system. I was going to go on with a complicated explanation of the problems here, but instead will just ask if anyone can help to interpret the options here.
I'm used to the Nikon system, in which once a number sequence is chosen, that sequence goes on whatever cards are present, regardless of what else is on the card. If a card fills up and overflows to the second slot, you can remove the full card, move the part-full one to the first slot, put an empty in the second slot, and it continues with no duplicated numbers. Any way of doing this on Olympus?
I've gotten a little further in figuring out how to keep it from going all over the place, but still cannot seem to get my TG-7 from inserting files randomly on the card!

I can't help you with the TG-7 issue, but for your OM-1, I highly suggest investing in John Greengo's OM-1 Video Course. It is a very extensive, high quality production that covers all of the features and functions of the OM-1 Mkl and Mkll. It includes very clear hands-on demonstrations of many of the camera's functions and settings.
You can download the first three sections of the course for free to help you decide.
