Re: File names for K10D
I've nautilus script for linux box called rename_photos_YYDAY that renames image files from the format on imgp0001.pef to imgp07281.pef The scrip location is here: http://roman.blakout.net/cache/rename_photos_YYDAY You can easily modify output name and create second script for your other K10D body. It also creates unique file names whwere YY is year number (7 now); DAY - day of the year and XXX is sequential number from the input file argument passed to the script. As I said script is written for perl Gtk2 and works on any linux PC with gnome desktop environment (nautilus file browser). Just copy it into nautilus scripts location and set permissions to 755 (exacutable). Select files you want to rename in the nautilus and send to the script. Voila. -- new pictures once and again http://roman.blakout.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
File names for K10D
I've now got a second K10D body and would like a way to keep track of which images came from which K10D body. Is there a way to change to file format IN-CAMERA? I looked thru the instruction manual and couldn't find it... but I also could've overlooked it. For now, I'm resorting to dumping the images in a different folder, and then renaming them all via BreezeBrowser. Thanks for your help!

For now, I'm resorting to dumping the images in a different folder, and then renaming them all via BreezeBrowser. If you use a utility application to copy them from card to computer drive, most include file renaming on the fly. With Lightroom, I probably would not bother changing the file names but would put a keyword into the file on import to indicate the different bodies. I'm not sure whether Lightroom will detect the different bodies by serial number, as it does with the Canon 10D files (I have a few files from one Canon 10D that I borrowed before I bought mine ... they show up in the metadata browser separately based on information obtained from the EXIF data).

That'll change the prefix the camera uses, but may have negative consequences for the photos themselves or your post processing workflow. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
