Deleting by approval status

images are still there, but they will not be shown until you change the filter setting. Also, if you change the status of an image, the image may ‘disappear’ if it no longer passes the filter. For example, if you have set the camera to browse only green-status images and then change an image to yellow status, that image will not be shown again until you change the browse filter.

There are many ways to make use of this feature. For example:

•Set the filter to show only yellow images. Then step through each image and decide whether any of them should be promoted to green or demoted red.

•If you are running out of space, set the filter to show only red images and then step through to find shots you can delete.

•Set the filter to show only green images. Then step through to make sure you have at least one ‘good’ example of each shot that you need.

There are two ways to set the browse filter:

•Press and hold until the filter you want to use is shown by the indicator.

•Use the MAIN MENU > Browse entry of the menu system. See Setting the Browse Filter for a detailed procedure.

There are many ways to delete images, including one-at-a-time and multiple delete by batch, media and/or approval status. When deleting several images, you first pick the medium or batch from which you want to delete and then use the MAIN MENU > STORAGE > Delete entry to specify the status of the images to delete. You can choose to delete:

•All red-status images from the selected batch or medium

•All red- and yellow-status images from the selected batch or medium

•All images from the selected batch or medium

See MAIN MENU > Delete for detailed procedures describing each of the delete op- tions.

Setting the default status

As outlined in “Standard Instant Approval Workflow”, a CF digital back normally works by assigning a green status to all images that pass a basic exposure test and a yellow status to all images that fail the test. However, you can change this behaviour if you prefer an alternative workflow. You have the following options:

•Auto: works as described in Standard Instant Approval Workflow.

•Green: gives all new images a green status, regardless of the exposure warning.

•Yellow: gives all new images a yellow status, regardless of the exposure warning.

Regardless of this setting, audio feedback will still be provided if an image is judged to be badly exposed (if this option is chosen).

Use the MAIN MENU > BROWSE entry to make this setting. See also Setting the Default Approval Status for a detailed procedure.
