OpenFileDialog Multiselect problem

Question

I have standart OpenFileDialog

var openFileDialog = new OpenFileDialog
{
    DefaultExt = "mpo",
    Filter = "Image file |*.mpo",
    Multiselect = true,
    RestoreDirectory = true,
};

and when i try to use it to open several photos on "fujifilm finepix real 3d w1" photo camera it fires message box "Cannot open multiple items from this location. Try selecting a single item instead." Opening only 1 file is ok.

When i try to select photos from hard drive or other removable device everything is ok.

Anyone get the same problem?

Due to the fact that you already found out that doing the same from another location doesn't make any problems, there is something with your camera.

As a workaround for your application you shouldn't open all the files directly on the device. Instead copy all selected items into a save location (a self-created folder below the temp folder) and open them from there.
