I will be shooting a lot of family and group photos for a Credit Union and I am going to use Lightroom 2 to auto import the photos as I shoot them. When you go into the setting for auto import it wants to but the photos in a sup-folder. Is their a way around this? I won’t to make my folders be for time to speed things up a little.

I was wondering the same thing last night. Can you choose the destination to be the same as the watched folder -- is it smart enough to not copy the files then?

When using the Canon Utility you have a monitor folder and then in Lightroom you have a monitor folder which is the same as in the utility. Then you have a destination folder (sup-folder), so you have to name the destination folder before every sitting to try to keep it all a little organized. I will be shooting two weekends about 250 sittings 15mins. apart, so if I could make the folders beforehand it would help a lot.

One other thing. Should I use a CF card or not.
