This section describes how to use batch processing with fi les that have already been saved to
the computer’s hard disk. For in for ma tion on batch processing of images captured directly
from the cam era, see “Nikon Capture 4 Camera Control” (
226).
1
Display the Batch dialog
Select Batch from the Tools menu or click the
button to display the Batch dialog.
2
Choose a source folder
In the Source section, choose the folder containing the images to be processed. The cur-
rent folder is listed in the text box. To choose a new folder, click the Browse button and
navigate to the desired location.
Include subfolders
Check this option to process all images in any sub-folders under the specifi ed fold er.
Folders with the same names will be created in the destination folder.
Periodically check for new fi les in this folder
When this option is checked, Nikon Capture 4 will check for new images in the spec i fi ed
folder once every ten seconds.
Delete fi les from this folder after they are processed
Check this option to delete image fi les from the selected folder after processing. A warn-
ing dialog will be displayed before batch processing begins.
Selecting Folders for Batch Processing
For improved effi ciency, create two folders that are used only for batch processing. The images to be
processed can be copied to one of these folders, which might be named “Batch In.” If the Delete fi les
from this folder after they are processed option is checked, these fi les will automatically be de let ed
from the “Batch In” folder after pro cess ing, allowing you to copy more fi les to the folder without wor-
ry ing about the fi les already there (be sure to leave a copy of any images you would like to keep in their
original state in another folder).
