Deleting images − general
A CF digital back enables you to delete images using any of the following techniques:
• Delete the currently selected image only.
• Delete all images from the current batch
• Delete all images from the current medium
• Delete all red-status images from the current batch
• Delete all red-status images from the current medium
• Delete all red- or yellow-status images from the current batch
• Delete all red- or yellow-status images from the current medium
Another way of working is to simply assign unwanted images as Red. In this way, you
retain the option (for a while) of changing your mind later while allowing the system
to automatically delete the unwanted images as the storage medium fills up.
You will always be asked to confirm each delete operation.
For complete details about how to use the menu system to delete single or multiple im-
ages, please see
MAIN MENU > STORAGE > Delete
.
Transferring / Copying images − general
Transferring to a computer
To transfer images stored on the compact-flash card to your computer, simply connect
the digital back to a computer using a FireWire cable and then run FlexColor, which will
automate the process. See your FlexColor manual for details.

for details about how to connect to a computer.
Another way to transfer images to your computer is to remove the compact-flash card
from the digital back and insert it into a compact-flash card reader connected to a com-
puter. See
Using Compact Flash Memory Cards
for details about how to remove and
insert the card.
A CF digital back can also function as a CF card reader for file transference. Select
MAIN
MENU > SETTINGS> Misc > Interface > Disk.
Images that you have stored on an Imagebank can also be transferred to a computer by
connected the external disk to the computer with a FireWire cable and then copying the
files using the file system. See your Imagebank or hard disk documentation for details.
For complete details see
MAIN MENU > STORAGE > Copy
.
Transferring to an Imagebank
A CF digital back enables you to work in the field, shooting to the internal card, and
then transfer images to an external hard disk even if you do not have a computer with
you. In this way, you can combine the total flexibility of shooting without any external
connections with the massive storage capacity of an external hard disk.
When the internal card gets full, just connect the camera to a Imagebank, transfer the
images, clear the card and return to shooting.
Images are not automatically deleted from the card after copying. If you want to delete
some or all images to free up some space, then use
MAIN MENU > STORAGE > Delete
.
