    Lightroom CC Question - How to Delete from NAS

    @TimG  I believe that might just delete the first photo selected, so you need to repeat. Otherwise, once all have been selected, right click and there should be an option to DELETE ALL SELECTED PHOTOS. That will mass delete and allow you select Remove from Drive. 

     

    Yep, using the CTRL-A or Command-A should select all the pics. But, yeah, otherwise one at a time!

     

    As atus says too, it's really important that you use LR to do everything: import into LR, move, copy, delete etc within LR. If you change something outside LR (eg directly in a folder on your NAS) it rapidly becomes a mess and the LR catalog won't know what has happened. This leads to all sorts of issues which can be very hard to sort out. LR is a great a program but you must work within at all times.

    Hi!

     

    Well in theory it should be straight-forward.....

     

    Assuming LR knows the images are on your NAS (so they show up in the LR Library catalogue as being on your NAS drive):

     

    - use the filters in Library Grid mode to show all the images you want to delete

    - highlight  them all using CTRL-A (Windows) or Command-A (Mac)

    - then hit your delete key.

    - it'll ask if you want to remove them from the hard drive (ie your NAS) or from the LR catalogue.

    - If you want to get rid of them permanently, select Remove from Drive (or at least whatever option is NOT remove from LR).

    - as the image are on a NAS you might get a warning that the images will be deleted and can't be sent to or retrieved from, eg, your Bin. 

    - select Yes or OK... or some such

     

    And that should be that......

    Here's one of my captures. I never owned a full frame SLR as my budget was always APS-C size 🙂

     

     

    Not sure it'd be any better with full frame! It's all about timing - and luck.

     

    Just one suggestion: as David and others say, these rascals come out at dusk so low-light environments. They can be quite tricky to spot as the light decreases and they dart in and out holes in the reef. It can be quite handy to spot them before they make a dash for their mid-water "tryst". I found this is best done with a low intensity red light - not white. White puts them off (well, it would, wouldn't it?). And a red light seems rather appropriate......

    Tim / Chris / Davide / Rich: maybe a  travel forum with one thread per destination would be a good way to document the collective wisdom of the group?)

     

     

    Super idea, thanks, we'll pursue......

     

    There is the Destination, Resort, Dive Guide and Critter Spotter Recommendations thread in the Travel forum but the idea of country/region threads might work nicely containing the more detailed responses.

    blue ringed octopus are tiny, so likely a macro shot

     

    Totally agree - unless we now have the Giant Blue-ringed Octopus - a sister species to the Pygmy Whale Shark.

    @Troporobo is your man for info on this - and will I'm sure chip-in.

     

    Based on his recommendations my partner and I did Anilao and Puerta Galera some years ago and really enjoyed it.

     

    Muck diving in Anilao is good (and I used to run muck diving trips in a resort in the Lembeh Straits) and we had 5 days there. It's not all muck but lots of macro critters.

     

    Puerta Galera (PG) is a boat ride away and an easy transfer - so little wasted time travelling. A variety of dives around there with some interesting critters including rhinopeas. We spent another 5-6 days there.

    I am naive, but I dream of an advertising campaign in which the company boasts that it has not only succeeded in making a 20% more powerful battery, but that it has taken special care in the design so that it is compatible with previous models. 

     

    In contrast to GoPro, a number of the camera manufacturers (or nearly all of them?) seem to have standardised on batteries which seem to last through generations of cameras. My Nikon D100, 200, 300, 700, 800, Z6 and Z6III all used the same battery format but with some technical changes on their capacity - but all were interchangeable. Even the "pro" series, D5, D6, Z9 use/used a common format. 

     

    Totally agree on cables. Is USB-C the new brave hope? My iPhone 12 is the only thing I have left with Lightning. Phew....

    Well done EU!
