I used to have an Olympus camera.
It created files with names like "pc300040.jpg" :-
- The "p" was for "picture".
- The "c" was for the month = 12 (1, 2, 3, ..., 9, a, b, c).
- The "30" was for the day of month.
- The remaining digits were a sequential number for each photo.

Note that the YEAR the picture was taken is NOT in the filename.

So if you list the files alphabetically on the computer, photos taken in 
January 2009 will be mixed in among photos taken in January 2008 -- 
whereas the camera will probably show the photos in the order you took them.

Try sorting the files by their modification time.  In Nautilus,

   View > Arrange items > By modification date

or in the terminal:  "ls -ltr"
