Working with media and batches
Whichever way you choose to store your images, they should be filed in batches for efficient work-
flow.
Organizing your work with batches
Batches help you to organize your shots as you work. ey function just like folders on
a computer. Batches have the following properties:
• When you create a new batch, you assign a name to it and it is created as a new
folder.
• When you copy images from a compact-flash card, each batch is saved as a sub-
folder on the destination disk.
• When deleting multiple images, you are able to restrict your delete command so
that it affects just a single batch.
• When browsing images, you will only see images from the current batch.
• You can change between batches by using the navigation controls of the sensor
unit front panel.
• The OLED shows the date on which each batch was created.
Navigating media and batches
e camera always works with a current medium and a current batch. is is the location at
which the camera will save all new shots and the location in which you can browse us-
ing the navigator button on the front panel. ere are two ways of selecting the current
medium and/or batch:
• Using the zoom and navigator buttons of the front panel. This method enables
you to select any existing batch and is therefore useful even when only one type
of medium is attached. This method is explained in the procedure below.
• Using the MAIN MENU > Storage entry of the menu system to choose a medium.
This is only relevant when more than one medium is attached (e.g., both a compact
flash card and an ImageBank-CF). When you use this function, you will always go to
the most recently created batch from the medium you select. Please see Selecting
the Current Storage Medium for a complete description of this method.
To select the current medium and batch using the browse controls:
1. Press the zoom-out button repeatedly until you are all the way at the top zoom level.
If you start with the single-image preview view, then you pass through the following
views to get there:
• Single-image preview
• Four-thumbnail view
• Nine-thumbnail view
• Batch list
• Media list
