Yes is the answer to all of your questions - obviously I don't know all of the details on how you like to work. Quote from: Yvan Bedard on February 22, 2021, 05:27:48 pm Hi Ray, I also will have to find the time to learn a new raw processor. everything in raw: layers, HDR, printing, some effects), but I'm loosing fate it will improve performance and robustness. I know I'll miss some capabilities from PhotoRaw (ex.
#Capture one session vs catalog pro
Questions: Will moving to PM+ with Capture One Pro allow me to keep working with my existing photo folders organization? Is it possible to open CO Pro from within PM+? Are the star/ranking systems compatible between PM and CO ? I'm planning to go back to my old workflow with three different softwares which are the best at what they do: (1) the ingest/browse engine (PM+), (2) the best raw processor (Capture One or DXO PL4), and (3) QImage for printing. Thus, instead of using one+application-fits-all. I already use QImage Ultimate to print when PR crashes during printing.
#Capture one session vs catalog upgrade
I'm very interested to upgrade to PM+ and move to Capture One Pro (and leave the slow buggy one+application-fits-all PhotoRaw). Nevertheless, I have an excellent file organisation system that works for me and this is what I liked with On1 PR: you can work directly from your repositories. I never used their cataloguing capabilities because I don't trust the software (it is not a stable, even 2021 version, and we cannot backup the catalog database). Then, after moving to On1 PhotoRaw, I started to use their brower. I used to use PM v.5 to ingest and browse my photos. Obviously many people want a one-application-fits-all but I've always used PM, and using PM Plus was a natural extension for what I do. This in combination with C1 sessions works very well for me. It's extremely fast, it has superb and intuitive search capabilities and can "watch" directories for adding images.
That said, I've been using a combination of Photo Mechanic Plus for ingest, backup, keywording, renaming and cataloging, since catalogs are the purpose of the "Plus". I come from Aperture, which was excellent.Ĭ1 does do reasonable metadata/key-wording, smart albums, etc. If you shoot gazillions of images and want to use catalogs, it would probably need to be broken out to a new one once you reach a certain threshold, which I understand to be around 30k images. It has two concepts for ingest: "Sessions", which is file system based, is very fast and is designed to be centered around a shooting session or small group of shooting sessions and "Catalog" which is for large groups of images and involves a database library. Capture one excels at raw processing, color controls, tethering, multi-recipe output and a host of other things.
