Would it be an option to ccircumvent the whole problem this way: 1. Do a manual reordering of the images, 2. With that sort-order, do a rename. This will create a filename sequence that's chronological, if you did the job right in step one. Then you'll get it right by sorting on filename, at least.

Lightroom question, synchronizing camera clocks
I was shooting with both bodies this weekend, particularly during dance contests when I had the FA31 on one body and the 18-250 on the other. Unfortunately, the clocks in the two cameras were out of sync by 5 minutes, so sorting by capture time almost, but doesn't quite, work right. I don't think so, I wasn't able to find it in the spitzer & resnick book, but is there a way to select a group of pictures and say "correct the capture time of all of these by 5 minutes"? In other news, my Sigma 20/1.8 just showed up a few minutes ago. I haven't had a chance to take it for a test shoot, but it looks good. I put it on a 35mm bodies and at a first glance, it doesn't seem to vignette too badly either. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
