Alright here's my issue: I shoot events that have multiple competition levels (classes), and create a new folder on my 1DMkII and 1DMkIII bodies between classes so that all photos in a given class are in the same folder.
The problem is when I go to download the cards (I use a card reader and either Lightroom or Canon Zoombrowser) there doesn't seem to be an easy way to specifically save files from a folder to a specific location.
For example,I want to specify that Folder 103 files be saved to 2011Photos/Event02/16JWW, and folder 104 to 2011Photos/Event02/12JWW. (just an example, this changes per event). Even looked at Downloader Pro, but could never figure how to do this and switched back to what I know.
This is critical to separate the photos by class, currently I shoot an index card with the class label as well between classes so I can move the group of files manually after I download the cards, but at a 800+ files a day for a big shoot, and some 20 possible classes to move them this becomes cumbersome, longer shoots are even worse.
Any help on software, either setting up what I have (ZB and LR now days), or using something else??
- it'll let you use the source folder numbers in creating destination folders and in naming the files. You might have to juggle things a bit in your naming conventions to handle what I assume are age classes, but that'll be just a matter of setting your work habits in the folder creation step.
