Re: PESO ISO 51,200
I don’t try to sort my shots. I just open Bridge, choose the folder of shots I just uploaded and start looking at them. I work from the top down and render all the shots I like. If there are similar shots I may compare them, but I keep my Bridge images large enough to be able to judge shots without opening them for the most part. I generally don’t delete any shots, unless they're obvious errors like shots of my shoes or the ground. :-).

Re: PESO ISO 51,200
One way to do it is to scan through a batch & mark all the minimally acceptable images with one star. Then change the view to show only the one star images & sort through them again to actually look for the better images. Mark 'em two stars & repeat going through the two star images to find the three star images ... I no longer actually delete images. Electrons are cheap nowadays. Sometimes the duds teach more than the good images do. On 3/19/2017 1:40 AM, Alan C wrote: A fine shot considering the conditions. How on earth do you process "several hundred frames"?

Re: PESO ISO 51,200
When you regularly have 400 and up frames from a shoot, you learn how to deal with them. :) Lightroom's stars and Survey mode help a great deal. I do an initial pass over all the shots quickly removing the technical duds. Then another pass looking for weak shots and I promote the stronger ones with a star. If I have trouble choosing between several almost identical ones I select the bunch (no more than 8 at a time usually) and use survey mode (N) to step through them. It's generally obvious which are the best of those. This cuts them at least in half most of the time. Now a pass to find the best ones of those. After that pass I should be down to somewhere between 10% to 25% of the shoot. Each pass gets appreciably harder to make choices because now we're splitting hairs, but there are also fewer shots to compare. In a complex studio shoot with several main themes I have a pre-pre-pass to move the related shots into separate folders so I can do the passes on just those groups of related shots. I don't want to be comparing completely unrelated images -- much too hard. On Sun, Mar 19, 2017 at 1:40 AM, Alan C wrote: > A fine shot considering the conditions.

Re: PESO ISO 51,200
One thing I don't like about smart previews is that if you go to 100% magnification it loads the raw and renders it all over again. That takes some time. I actually don't use them very often because of that. Just working with the raw directly seems a little faster in develop mode though if work only with the smart preview it is definitely faster though you don't get a 100% view. It usually has enough resolution to determine sharpness on faces usually though. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: PESO ISO 51,200
If I have a huge set of photos I just import them and build 1:1 renders at import. That way I can flip through them and cull pretty quickly. Thing is though that the previews are only really used in the library in lightroom. As soon as you go to develop mode it rerenders the raw. Another thing is that if you use any global presets, its best to apply them before you render because changing settings makes the render null and void if that makes sense. Also smart previews can be really fast to process and adjust. If you want to force lightroom to only use smart previews, just generate them and rename the directory that all of your raw files are in. Since lightroom no longer sees them it just works with the smart previews. Putting your library and image cache on an SSD is pretty much a must if you want something approaching decent performance. It depends on how large your catalog is too. I have a 200k image catalog currently which can slow things down. Sometimes creating a new catalog and working on a big shoot is easier and then just importing that catalog into your main one.
