You can type short descriptive material in the annotation area; then use the mouse or arrow keys to move through text once entered. The text is saved with the image on the PCMCIA card or in an archive file, but not with a test shot image unless you save the image.

The image information window includes, from top to bottom: the camera model that took the image, the camera serial number, the image width and height (in pixels), the date and time (displayed in 24-hour format) the image was made, and the image counter (the exposure number displayed by the camera when the image was made).

The remaining information in the area depends on which camera was used to take the selected picture. This information can include: ISO, aperture, shutter speed, lens, and other settings such as the approximate camera-to subject distance in meters (if supported by the camera and lens).

The shutter speed and camera aperture are shown as they appear in the camera LCD panel and viewfinder. The date and time are maintained by the battery in the camera system. You update the date and time with the SET CLOCK choice of the CAMERA CONTROL dialog box as described in this chapter.

The text from the annotation area and the image information window are obtained when you acquire the image into Photoshop. These data are placed into the caption area of the file information for the image.

The number of character•»in the annotation window plus the number of characters in the image information window must total 255 or less. Some cameras display more lines in the image information window than others; for this reason, with some cameras you may not be able to fill the annota- tion window with your text. However, you can delete some lines from the image information window by clicking on the line (to select the entire line), and pressing the keyboard delete key. This works to delete all lines except: Camera; Serial #; Width; Height; Date; and Time.
