I visit the files via Capture One, Bridge, Photoshop, Preview, Spotlight, file uploaders on the web, etc. In my case, all shoots are downloaded to a unique folder which has a name corresponding to the date, followed by the subject or job, inside a folder named "Pictures" at the Finder level. We each have preferences and comfort ranges, plus there may be cataloguing requirements most suitable for some tasks.
#Best photo dam for mac software#
I would drink a tall glass of motor oil and ground glass before I'd endure the steps reminiscent of data recovery from a failed hard drive in order to migrate to new software version. But of course, I also accept that they make choices that work for their processes. I felt bad for the participants who stated that the process took hours or days. I read, with interest and respect, the AA3 thread discussing updating libraries and such, which may take a day or more in order to do the software update. I know that my process is probably too slow for some users (though I find it very fast because files are where I expect them to be), and I love the peace that comes from knowing that my backups will work, my duplicates will work, my software updates have no effect, etc. But I still feel very comfortable using a hybrid of Seth Resnick's file naming process at the Finder level so that I can access any file (or event) via the software of my choice.
Now please bear in mind that I don't often shoot events (though I'm not sure I'd change my flow if I did). but at the risk of being accused of not reading the original post (I read it and all subsequent posts) I'll add my 2¢:įor my DAM on the Mac I love. Jono points out that it's a personal choice and I agree, like OS, capture device, raw converter, etc. Interesting topic, and one which comes up in various forms from time to time.
