Hi!
Can someone please help me with this one. I am using Canon Camera Connect to download photos from my R3 to my Samsung Android phone.
I have come across a strange problem in which the original R3 filenames are changed when downloaded to the phone. They are changed to the format: datetime - original name.
Can some one please help me to avoid this rename since I need original filenames in my work process.
Big thanks for all the help

Kris,
I did a little reading on this.
It seems to be a peculiarity in Android's image naming structure, and I don't believe it can be changed. As I understand it, the best you can do is rename the file once it's been downloaded.
