7D MkII Naming Files

I'm trying to name my 7D MkII files to 7D2_. But when I check the file name it displays D2_.

 

I'm using User Setting1 and on the File Name screen 7D2_ displays.

 

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

 

Paul

IF the underscore is at the front of the file name your camera is set to Adobe RGB rather than normal RGB. Unless you specifically need & can edit Adobe RGB jpg's I's recommend switching it. My 7D2 file numbers are 7D2-1234 etc.

 

Check your Colorspace setting & reset & i'll bet you can then use 7D2 as the prefex.

Something most don't realize about working with a RAW file is that you are NOT altering it & it's there for you to re edit differently as many times as you might want to, You make changes to what you see on screen but those changes are used to create a jpg & not applied to your RAW file. Over the years RAW processing has progressed big time giving us way more latitude to what we can do to a file.
