Well, I find the jpeg's easier to initially sift through, the files are smaller so can load, scroll through, delete them quicker. I haven't found a program that can load and scroll through raw files quickly enough not to frustrate me.
That could work, provided it does what I want (I want to keep the duplicate files, and delete the others).
Well, even if working only with raw files, I export the final image to jpeg, right, maybe several times to compare the effect of different settings? Also sometimes I'm happy with the sooc jpeg so don't need to do anything with the raw but still want to keep it just in case. When you say you only import the raw do you mean you keep the files on the memory card? Then do you keep the card as a backup and use a new one each time it's full?
I used Picasa when I used to shoot jpeg only which was great cos it had the same kind of reject feature you describe. Now I use Fuji's own Raw File Converter, mainly because it has the Fuji 'special features', such as the film simulation modes, otherwise it's not the most easy to use software, particularly for this 'sorting' activity. Plus google retired Picasa. The cost puts me off Lightroom, and other paid options, (not saying it's not good, just not worth it for the amount I'd use it), plus it has a reputation for not being great with Fuji files.
I think a lightweight jpeg viewer that has a "favourite/reject" feature to speed up initial sorting, plus a duplicate file manager like mentioned above might work for me. |
