General
Whichever way you choose to store your images, they should be filed in batches for ef-
ficient workflow.
Organizing your work with batches
Batches help you to organize your shots as you work. ey function exactly as 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.
Please note that each new image will be saved in the latest created batch only. You
cannot select any other batch to save a new image in.
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). 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.
