Raw file viewer license#

I don't yet know which app I will choose going forward. I have taken some time away from photography so most of what I have is out of date. There appear to be some but I am more interested in using it to catalog my images and to use external apps for the edits. I have not played with what tweaks I can make directly in this app yet. It allows me to link to three different external apps to edit with just as Photo Mechanic did.

As I am a highly visually oriented user, this is a plus, to see what I have as fast as I can scroll. This app opens folders with lots of files quickly and it also scrolls very quickly.

I am using it to organize my huge collection of JPEG files. For my purposes, this app does what I need and it works great. No, it is not as complete and as robust as Photo Mechanic, nor is it anywhere near as expensive.

Raw file viewer license#

I was looking at renewing my license for Photo Mechanic and found this app mentioned by others. FastRawViewer is infinitely configurable in what it will display (depending on your monitor size and needs) so the user can improve its looks considerably with just a little effort. it's easy to go to remove all the ugly chrome though just by pressing tab just like in Photoshop. Aesthetically FastRawViewer (a cross-platform app) is not the prettiest app in Mac history. If you are a photographer, FastRawViewer is the best $15 (or $20) you will ever spend on software.Īs other users have pointed out, FastRawViewer is kept up to date. There's no faster workflow for dealing with an event and getting to high quality jpegs from original RAW. Then I take the keepers put them in another folder and process them in DxO Photo Lab or Iridient Developer. I use FastRawViewer to offload files from SD and CompactFlash Media, to throw away dud photos and rate the rest. Embedded previews or accompanying jpegs work great and even faster. You don't have to You also don't have to use RAW if you have a high resolution camera like the Nikon D850, Sony A7R II or A7R III or the Canon 5DS R.
