#PHOTO MECHANIC VS FASTRAWVIEWER FOR MAC#
Available for Mac and Windows.Īlso check out iMatch. It focusses exclusively on file management. It is not for editing (like Luminar, Capture One, On1, or Lightroom) nor is it a raw processor. Luminar - I have it, though I do not use it for DAM processing and have heard a number of mixed reviews on that aspect.Ĭheck out Photo Supreme. ON1 PhotoRAW - making more advances as a DAM and RAW processor, and at a reasonable price. The RAW processing is in a different class than Affinity.

If you really do not need photo editing (I think you would be wise to reconsider): Photo Mechanic is the most efficient tagging and culling software on the marketĬapture One - Digital Asset Management as well as the best RAW processing on the Market. Can anyone suggest something - I'm not looking for anything too complex. I don't need a program that edits as I have Affinity for that, so just a photo file management system I can use in conjunction with Affinity Photo is what I need. I've had a search on the internet and have a couple of names: Adobe Photoshop Elements, Adobe Bridge, Phototheca3, Abemeda, XNViewMP, Irfanview - I know there are more, but I got a bit overwhelmed.
It doesn't need to be free, but I am hoping for something that wont get discontinued (eg Picasa). I am looking for something that would have a one-off payment as I don't want to lock into a subscription. I'm really enjoying using Affinity Photo (and know there's no photo file management system yet available). My photo library has now become too big for me to remember where things are and I spend a lot of time looking for photos I want to find. Previewing and culling right off the SD or CF card saves lots of computing power and, potentially, space on your hard drives.Hi, I know this has been discussed before, but I am currently just filing my photos into windows explorer with a date and few words in the file name on what they are and they are stored in the cloud.
If you shoot lots of pictures and then cull them, then you'll do yourself a favor by trying FRV. If you already use PhotoMechanic, you'll want to try FRV to see it's advantages, particularly if you shoot Sony or a brand that embeds a small JPG in the Raw file. I hit Shift-C to copy those that I chose to process to a designated Folder. I can select any image to fit to screen and then use shortcut "Z" to toggle between fit to screen and 100%.

Using my up-down-left-right arrows, I navigate, with no delays on my 4mHz, 64-bit, Windows 10 PC. On opening, FRV displays 40 preview images on my 27" monitor. I open the images on the SD card, using a card reader to connect to my desktop or, when traveling, my laptop. It seems just as fast and flexible as PM.

Without taking any more time, FRV converts the Raw file, unchanged generating full resolution images and histograms for use in reviewing. Hence, the dynamic range shown in the histogram is not accurate. The preview histogram is also derived from the embedded file. Sony, in particular and maybe others, embeds a rather small JPG in their Raw files, so when viewing full-screen, you don't see anywhere near full-resolution. It's quick and flexible, but the preview that it shows you is from the JPG embedded in the Raw file, not a Preview generated from the Raw file and converted to DNG or some other format for viewing. Both Chris and I have used PhotoMechanic to cull our Raw files, prior to discovering FRV. For example, I shot around 3,000 images in the last 24-hours, with my Sony a9 and a7RIII. Wildlife photographers take many images, particularly when shooting birds in flight. Canadian wildlife photographer, Christopher Dodds, clued me to FastRawViewer a couple of days ago.
