5D Mark IV - changing the filename

KarlKrueger
Enthusiast

I'm setting up my defaults on my new camera and trying to change how files are named.

 

As according to the  instructions when I go to the file name menu I see the unalterable Preset Code (the default this camera uses to name files) and I changed my User setting 1 to how I want my files named.

 

BUT the manual and options availabe in the menuj are not clearly evident how you tell the camera to use the User setting 1 convention and not the Preset Code. Needless to say my pic filenames are still coming out preceded by the Preset code and not User Settings 1. So what is the magic trick to do this??? (Note- I have sRGB selected so that is not the issue someone else had)

I do it on my 1D X. Are you pressing "SET" button?

"Maybe its a bug."

 

It is not a bug. Read the manual.

I will .-)

One more thing (connected) is there a © character for the copyright? I cannot see it.

No. You will need to type  (c)
