By Mitz

 

Digital Camera Tips

 

There is nothing worse than having to search you entire computer for a particular photo because they are not organized properly. Try looking for a photo with only dates for folder names and numbers for the picture names.

It is just impossible. This is why it is so important that you organize your photo collection.

Tips to organize your photo collection on your computer

  • Always transfer your photos to the same folder on your computer. Just make a subfolder for the new editions. The default folder is my pictures folder.

  • Always name photos that you are storing with meaningful names... How are you going to remember what 100003.jpg is?

  • Put a date on the categories folder as well as a name.

  • Choose a image file format that takes up less space. Here are the different image file types.

  • Have at least two copies of your photo collection, on separate devices or disks.
