Morning, very new here so hoping I'm posting in the right place and that someone can help me out. If not can someone please refer me elsewhere, and thankyou in advance.
I am using a Canon EOS 1300D and a Kaiser copy stand to take photos for a high-throughput phenotypic analysis project. I need the ability to remote shoot, for which we currently use the provided EOS Utility/DPP4, but I also require a preview of the recently taken image (unlimited by time, I need to properly review the image), and optimally delete images that don't meet criteria, and finally save those we are happy with with a unique name that refers to the accession itself. I have barcodes and a scanner with the final names but the current situation of saving all photos (even those that need retaking) with successive numbers and manually creating an excel list to keep track, then curating enormous folders of images and lists before attempting to rename them is time consuming and not ideal.
We formerly used a scanner for a basic image taking (which was very poor quality and not replicable, this camera and copy stand absolutely must be used now), however the software was really ideal in that it provided a preview, and you could either delete, or choose to save which popped up with a "save as" box to type our preferred name into.
Is there a way to force DPP4 to allow any/all of these things to happen? I have had a look myself but I am unfamiliar with cameras and this software, unfortunately we have no one in our team anymore who has any knowledge here. If not, is there a different piece of software anyone is aware of that may be what I'm looking for and work happily with the Canon?
