Timeshift Burst Extra Photos

[Redfern]

Hi,

I have taken a photo using the camera Timeshift Burst, which works great.. but the problem is when i goto select images for e.g. facebook upload, text, whats app etc... I see all of the photos from that timeshift burst and not just the single one i selected from the timeshift burst.

Is there a way to only keep one of the photos from a timeshift burst and to delete the rest?

The extra photos don't show up in the normal Album app, only when I goto selcting a photo for use elsewhere. Also they show up if i sync them to my computer etc.

I'm loving my Z1, but I'm staggered at how useless the burst mode feature is in its current form.  Having selected the photo I want from the selection I really expected the others to be removed just leaving me with the photo I chose!  This is such a shame because burst mode could potentially be so good 😕

This is exactly the problem I have! All the (burst) phtos have the same name (starting from number 1).

I even found out that when I backup to my SD Card, all these pictures overwrite one another, and.... it's all GONE!!!! AAAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!:smileyshocked:

Horrible feature by Sony. It has a lot of potential, but it is not developed right. Shame

It's an amazing feature and I've found it really good for moving photos but Wish you could select one Photo to keep instead of the 60. It's a nightmare trying to delete the 59 you don't want as well as figure out which one You have originally kept. I just want the one I select and thats it.

Exactly the same problem here, I've deleted the app because deleting 60 odd photos from Facebook and Dropbox upload each time is a pain

I also just discovered this side effect of a great feature.

Please Sony give us the option to convert a burst group of photos to a normal photo when you select the one you want to keep.

Intuitively that's what I thought it was doing until I opened the google photos app and had to scroll past 'a million' photos to find the one I was looking for.

I'd like to agree with everyone on this thread - Sony, please fix the timeshift burst feature!

It is really great being able to capture the burst of pictures, but we should be able to select the ones we want, and have the other deleted in a slick way, rather than having to do it manually through other applications.

Is there any way we can vote for this to be fixed?

Well we can also choose the photo we want, then screenshot. After that delete the burst photo.

I also need this to be fixed!
