Next Capture Adjustments - Metadata?

Grant Hodgeon
Hi,

I'm looking for a way to default write metadata to each file as it comes in.

Is this possible? I'm struggling to find any information on it in the documentation.

Again, I'm looking to sync the metadata from a file to the new captures as they come in.

Thanks!

    If you're importing from CF card, you can use Import with Style.
    If you are shooting tethered you can use a few options like, Next Capture Adjustments: Default with Style or Default from Clipboard and copy the relevant metadata to the Clipboard.

    Well! I thought I'd tried that but I guess I did not!

    Thank you, Drew.

    Did I miss something?
    You may import from a memory card, but the only styles you may apply by importing images are adjustments.
    But what about metadata?

    Make metadata part of the Style.

    Aha, and what if I don't want to apply a style, just metadata?

    Make the style include "just metadata" 😉

    Thanks, I was looking for such a solution since I switched from Aperture months ago. However, the feature is well hidden. Don´t tell anybody, it´s our secret!! 😄

    Been struggling with this as well. When shooting tethered if using Default with Style or Default from Clipboard any changes you make to the image: exposure, white balance etc. won't be applied to the new image. In CO 7 I could do Copy from Last in Next Capture Adjustments and then in Styles and Presets have a saved Metadata preset or style selected to add on the metadata to new images as they came in. But this is not working in 8 with the Nikon D810.
