You might try doing that with a shell sequence operator instead of globbing:

    ls DSC_{6035..6072}.NEF

That's going to blindly generate all the numbers in that sequence without
regard to whether all those files actually exist, so you might want to
redirect stderr to /dev/null to get rid of the complaints from 'ls'.
