Browsing by approval status

You can set the camera to browse by approval status, which means, for example, that you will see only green-status images as you browse a batch (or both green and yellow, or only red, etc.). The current filter setting is indicated on-screen, as illustrated. ­Filtered 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. You have the following choices:

•All: browses all of the images in the current batch, regardless of their approval status. This is the default.

•Red: browses only red-status images from the current batch. These are images that you have marked for likely deletion. You might browse these images to make sure you have not eliminated any usable images and/or to find images that you can delete to make room for new shots.

•Green: browses only green-status images from the current batch. These are either new shots that did not trigger an exposure warning or shots that you manually assigned to green after overriding an exposure warning.

•Green & Yellow: browses green and yellow-status images, but does not show red-status images. These are probably images that you have either decided to keep or not yet checked for approval status.

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:

1.Choose MAIN MENU > Browse. The current setting is displayed here.

2.Use the zoom ( – or + ) button to step through the filter options (described above) until you have selected the filter you wish to use.

3.Press the menu button to exit the menu system and keep the setting.

The appearance of the ‘Empty Browse Filter’ message signifies that there are no images with that particular approval status.
