The Entagged system makes organizing your volume photography sessions a breeze. | |
| The Entagged device is a Bluetooth attachment that plugs into your camera and automatically saves key information directly in the metadata of your photos as you shoot. This eliminates the need for physically tagging and organizing your images, saving you hours for each and every photo job. |  |
To help you get started, we've put together a handy checklist of tasks for setting up your Entagged for the first time, and for running a smooth and successful Photo Job with your Entagged system. Simply click on any of the steps for a full explanation of the steps involved. You can return to this checklist at any time.
First things first: Check your camera's compatibility and purchase your Entagged device.
The Entagged workflow requires an Entagged device to function. Please make sure you have the device before starting your photo job to avoid any disruptions. We also recommend running a test job to get familiar with the system before using it on an actual shoot.
Set Up Your Entagged Device
The following steps only need to be completed once. Once you have completed these steps, there is no need to go through them in your next Photo Job.
- Connect the Entagged device to your camera.
- Pair your Entagged device with your phone. This is also where you will pair a barcode scanner if you are using one.
Choose a Workflow for your Picture Day
There are multiple ways to use your Entagged system. Here are 3 different workflows to choose from, depending on the type of Photo Job you are shooting and your personal preference. Their results are the same: all subjects' photos get automatically tagged with their metadata for easy sorting and distribution. The difference lies in the scanning method.
