Grouping files
If you have to browse a lot of images in the File List you should consider
using Group By to organize images into different groups. You may find
it easier to find images when they are organized into groups. For example,
if you use more than one camera you can quickly organize your images according
to the camera you used to capture the images. Similarly, if you save your
images into different file formats you can quickly organize your images
according to their file format.
