Adjusting and saving multiple still images

You can use the preset image processing settings or the settings of a particular RAW file to adjust and save multiple still images at one time. This batch procedure is useful to adjust multiple still images that have been shot under identical shooting conditions.
For details on basic adjusting and saving operations, refer to the “Image Data Lightbox SR Guide” supplied with the software (“Image Data Lightbox SR Guide”).

  2. Click [Batch Processing...] from the [Features] menu.
    The [Batch Processing] window is displayed.

  3. Specify the image processing settings that you want to use, and a file format that you want to use to save the adjusted still images.
