If you're shooting by yourself with two cameras, this is pretty easy to do. This typically needs to be done for every wedding (or at least once each weekend), as no camera I've ever owned has a perfectly precise clock, so after a few weeks they might be several seconds off from each other. When shooting with multiple cameras (and multiple photographers), you'll want to set the clocks of all the cameras to be precisely synchronized down to the second, so that when these images are combined and are sorted by capture date, they all appear in the correct order. Of course, I may have to change this if I ever end up with two camera bodies that happen to have the same two digits at the end of the serial number! Time Synchronization
#Photo mechanic m1 serial number
The standard I settled on long ago is to use the last two digits of the camera's serial number as a prefix followed by an underscore character (so, my files are named, for example, 32_03912.ARW from one camera, or 18_05214.ARW from another). It's a good idea to change this to something different on each camera rather than leaving at the default (which is typically "DSC") to avoid the possibility of file name conflicts when shooting an event with multiple cameras. Pretty much all camera bodies allow for a custom prefix to be set for file naming. Yes, in my view, workflow includes the actual photography! Taking steps to set up your cameras properly and with foresight can help speed things up later.
