COPY
Usually, you will copy images from a card by connecting the cam-
era to a computer and using FlexColor. However, you might also
want to load images from a card to a portable FireWire hard disk
or Imagebank, allowing you to erase the c ard and keep shooting
even when you do not have a computer with you.
Aer the copy, the d estination d isk will h ave a folder named
CARDXXX, where XX X is a number that increments with each
new copy operation (e.g., CARD001 for the first copy, CARD002
for the next, etc.). Previous copies are therefore never overwritten
(provided you have fewer than 1000 folders of them). Within each
CARD folder is a sub-folder for each batch. You cannot u se the
digital back to browse images copied in this way; you must connect
the disk to a computer to browse the copied folders. is operation
does not delete the copied images from the card—you must do this
manually if you want to free card space aer the copy.
To copy images from the compact-flash card to extern al media,
use a FireWire cable to connect t he external media to the CFV
and then.
1. Press the MENU button.
2. Press to navigate down and select the Storage dialog.
3. Press and then to navigate down and select the Copy
dialog. Press to open the Copy dialog.
If you have only one disk attached, then skip this step.
If you have more than one disk attached, then press to
select the From card to entry. Then use the or but-
ton to select the name of the medium you want to copy to.
Finally, press to go back to the Are you sure? entry.
With the Are you sure? entry selected, you must now con-
firm the operation.
• To confirm, press the (+) button to change the status to Yes
and then press the approve (OK) button to execute the copy.
• To cancel, press the menu (EXIT) button to exit; or press the
(-) button to set the status to No and then press the approve
(OK) button to cancel.
If you chose to confirm, then the CFV now tracks the progress
of the copy operation, which can take a few minutes. You can
stop the copy at any time by pressing and holding the menu
(STOP) button.

another setting by using the navigator button or press the
