![]() Lightroom Mobile (and cloud sync) is still a crappy product, but I do use it from time to time, and would like to be able to resolve at least this one pain point. Yes, the camera produces a sequence number, for its filenames, but those are small numbers, roll over often, and are not necessarily unique across imports. Surely there has to be a better way than manually remembering and manually entering a sequence number? but with Lightroom Mobile, and the Rename menu, it ignores the import-sequence number, and assigns sequence numbers from #1. When I use Import three times, the photos all get the same date - but different sequence numbers. It's pretty common for me to come back from a day of shooting with three cameras to import - one phone and two D500 - and they will all have photos from the same date. Hence, re-starting from #1 on every import (or rename operation) is not acceptable. It's not critical they are in sequence - what I *most* want is for the number to be unique across all imports. I like this feature because the number gives a rough sense of the overall sequence of photos imported. I have found LR does remember the sequence number, over time, from import to import. I would greatly welcome any feedback and apologies for the long post, but wanted to explain everything! If not, am I making a big thing of this, or should I just use the filenames used from the iPad import? Can files imported via Mobile be renamed in a bulk way to bring inline with my naming structure?Ģ. However this does not address point 2 re filenames as the import basically takes the names from the camera roll.ġ. Not using my filename structure -rename preset form a normal desktop importĪccording to the FAQ, I can create a new folder within my nice neat structure and move the images to that.

I create a new collection and select some pics from camera roll, all sync to LR Desktop fine.īut I know have a new Folder called From LR-Mobile with a copy of the new pics.ġ. A Better Finder Rename 11.61 introduces a new web-based help system. I thought this would really improve my workflow, however here is the challenge. One of the great features (I thought!) was the ability to create a new collection on Mobile by selecting pics from iPad/iPhone Camera roll. This ensures everything is nice and consistent and no chance of duplicates!. My normal workflow (Desktop) is import images from my camera, I have set up a folder structure (based on year and date of event) to keeps things tidy, I also have a file-rename preset as well which is basically date of the picture, custom text and seq number. I have read the excellent FAQ on LR Mobile and I seem to have come across something no-one has been able to answer yet which make the LR Mobile version flawed in the current version, well in my opinion anyway. I have recently decided to move from Aperture to LR/PS and LR Mobile via CC Subscription, so far so good!.
