Dear all,
I am about to fotograph coins, which have two sides. The coins are from the Collection W. The first side of the coin should have “av” at the end of the file name, the second should have “rv” at the end.
Name of the 1. foto should be: "Collection W 0001av"; of the 2. foto: "Collection W 0001rv"; of the 3. foto: "Collection W 0002av"; of the 4. foto: "Collection W 0002rv” and so on.
I choose in session/general/ad new session/file name template editor: [session name] [counter 4 digits]. Here I am stuck. Does anyone know what to do to solve these problem?
Thanks for your help in advantage
Best

Re: file name template editor
You can use for this the series and capture name (editable in the middle of the main window right panel) and use the flowing filename template
Code: Select all
[Session Name] [Series 4 digit] [Capture Name]
Re: file name template editor
Dear Istvan,
Thank you for your answer.
But the Capture Name is a fixed one, which is a problem. If I use "av" as capture name ([Session Name][Series 4 digits][Capture Name]), all pictures have "av" at the end.
But I need Foto No 1: “Collection W 0001av”; Foto No 2: “Collection W 0001rv”; Foto No 3: “Collection W 0002av”; Foto No 4: “Collection W 0002rv” and so on.
So my problem seems still to be unsolved.

You should set the capture name before every capture as alternative you can use the tag selector window (View->Vindows=>Tag selector) the tags can be set in session edit windows and can be referenced in the file name template as [Selected Tag1]

Re: file name template editor
Hi my firends,
I use the new Nikon D850. I would like to save on my PC the same file name given by the camera, but if I flag the check box "use the original file name given by the camera" no way.
I checked your manual on-line page "filename template editor" so I tried to unflag the check box "use the original file name given by the camera" using the template file name [Original filename]: no way.
I tried several other setting, the only one seems to work is _[Exif.Photo.FNumber], but I was crazy looking for a solution.
Is it a software issue or is it my brain off?
Thnx for you help.

The "use the original file name given by the camera" only working if the capture destination in card+pc, if the destination in pc only the camera don't give any file name.
