Hybrid cameras that download electronic images with reduced metadata and methods

摘要

In cameras and methods, a plurality of image pairs are captured. Each image pair has an archival image of a scene and an electronic image of the same scene. The electronic images are stored in camera memory. Photofinishing metadata and image metadata is generated for the image pairs. One or more of the electronic images are downloaded to provide downloaded files. Photofinishing metadata is excluded from the downloaded files.
