The downside is simply how slow it is to import (for a wedding I’d let it import overnight) and since the files are stored within’ your catalog, it can slow your editing down as your catalog/database file grows."īut anyway just choose whatever the best solution to you.Looking For Raw Photos?

What that means for you though is that you can zoom in to inspect the photo is much as you want without waiting for the photo to “render the full image”. The standard rendering will slow down the import process a bit, but when you only zoom to “fit” in frame it will show you the image preview quickly.ġ:1 (one to one) previews are the slowest to import a since they are creating a full resolution preview at the time of import. "Standard is next in line in terms of rendering speed. By default it's 'minimum' but you can increase preview level on the price of import speed LR also can build preview during import as explained in the above link. I took about 40,000 photos during my entire lifetime so far, and I think that is about 39,000 too many I even shudder at the thought of having to go through such amount of images. Some images get slight adjustments or cropping, then off to export, which is done as batch to my preferred file size and compression level.īut I must admit, that I never took 17,000 photos at a single event. I import into C1 and do all my culling there. These days I never look at RAWS or JPGS in folders anymore. This way you can toss away all out-of-focus images without even opening them.

Even better, you don't have to open the RAW files in C1 - if you hold the loupe tool over the thumbnails, it will display sections of those in 100%. To check sharpness, you can however render sections in 100% or 200% and even that is quick. Only upon export does the full rendering take place. Like LR does C1 also need to import files first before can view? FastRAWViewer just browses the folders and it renders files so fast that no much difference from viewing JPEG files actually.Ĭ1 creates preview files upon import, and you then work with the previews which is why it is much faster than LR. So even I don't delete those unselected files, now I only need to import files I actually wanted and to be processed. Now it's indispensable to me even just sorting out hundred photos that I typically shoot in a given day in a trip. I heard it long ago and completely blown away after tried it. Not trying to advocate for FastRAWViewer but worth the try and cost. But I am wondering, is it not as easy to simply view and select the files after import into C1, and then just delete the unwanted ones? Rendering of RAW files is really quick in C1, even with 42MP files. Will have to try the FastRAWViewer myself, you made me curious. No mention poor resolution in such 'preview' is useless to me. I had a few corrupted A7r's ARW files (with pink twisted blocks) caused by bad UBS transfer that previewed fine in Finder so must on the embedded JPEG file, but not in FastRAWViewer or LR. Forget about if I imported them into LR that rendering RAW files slowly.īTW even Finder is able to preview RAW files, it may only preview the embedded JPEG file but not on actual RAW file. Without this FastRAWViewer it is unimaginable to quickly sort these files, selected around 700 files and deleted all others. For example, I took 17,280+ RAW files from A9 in the last airshow. Personally I don't care if I can preview RAW files in Finder or Path Finder (that I use) since I installed FastRAWViewer, the best RAW preview and selection program, indispensable really.
