Pictures FTP-ed from the camera....

On the run I have to ftp a lot of my pictures directly from the camera. Is there a way of keeping track of this when files are later on imported in Lightroom? Is there some kind of "flag" attached to the ftp-transferred files that Lightroom reads and can show me - or eg. be included in a search?

I'm not sure if I understand. Why would this be needed, as LrC anyway "knows" already imported photos based on its file name and metadata.

Please elaborate ...

It seems to me that LrC is not able to detect files transferred directly from camera via ftp. Since these files are not imported the normal way, they are not known to LrC.

When working outside the office, I sometimes have to transfer (jpg's) via ftp because of no time to edit, but when I'm back in office, I would like to edit (raw's) those files. In camera jpg's transfered via ftp are marked with a circle, but it looks to me that this information is only stored in the camera (and then unkown to LrC).

Please let me know if you have another experience...

I guess it's related to jpg's tranferred and raw's imported, but it would have been great if LrC understand when the similar jpg's are already ftp'ed abd could mark the according raw's one way or another...
