JOB Navi. Func. Image Capture Guide List
First of all, it is necessary to explain what a JOB Navi. Image Capture Guide
List is.
Role of Guide List
The JOB Navi. Func. Image Capture Guide List (hereafter referred to as Guide
List) function enables you to record images while checking the Guide List (a list
of images to be recorded) prepared in advance to ensure no images are
forgotten.
For example, imagine that you have been given the job of “Going to a motor
show and taking photos of several cars”. You have to take 4 photos of each
car: diagonally, and from the front, rear and side.
When taking photos normally at such times, it often happens that there are slips
of memory or forgetfulness, such as “Did I take this car from the side?” or “Have
I already taken this car from the back?” The Guide List is useful for solving such
problems.
In the case of these examples, before leaving for the motor show, prepare the
following list.
List Name : Motor Show
Image Title : Diagonally
Front
Rear
Side
By this means, you only need to proceed with recording according to the Guide
List displayed on the LCD monitor at the motor show. This prevents forgetting
to take important pictures.
Creating a Guide List
There are two ways of creating a Guide List which are explained below in order.
• The camera can only change the order of the image in the Guide List
Note
created by connecting with a PC.

■ How to Use the Guide List Tool Kit
The Guide List Tool Kit installed in Chapter 1 is the software for creating a
Guide List using Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word. However, as the software
runs on Windows, it cannot be used on a Macintosh.
In the case of Excel, you should specify the range of cells for image names,
write it out as a Guide List and save it in the Template folder for the CF card. All
that remains then is to insert the card into the camera. There is also a function
for sending the images one at a time recorded in accordance with the Guide
List, so you can easily create a table including photographs.
In the case of Word, you input the image titles in the layout frame, write them
out as the Guide List and save it in the Template folder for the CF card. All that
remains then is to insert the card into the camera. Send the images one at a
time in accordance with the Guide List, so you can easily create a document
including photographs.
• You cannot transfer the Guide List file directly from inside Excel or
Note
Word application to the camera connected to a PC or cannot import
the images from the camera to Excel or Word application.
This section therefore gives an explanation as a precondition that you
are using the type of PC to which you can connect or insert a CF card.
When you do not have that type of PC, save the Guide List file in a PC
hard disk and transfer it to the camera by using the Microsoft Explorer
with the RDC-i Explorer Plug-In installed.
When you import the images pasted in the Guide List to the camera,
transfer them from the camera to a PC first.
