Photosweeper x 2.2.212/1/2023 ![]() That's all it does, and it does it very well. ![]() ![]() PhotoReviewer lets you rotate images, then move them from the current capture folder to either an "Approved" folder of your choice or a "Vetoed" folder of your choice. Make sure you understand the preferences well before you change any of the settings. Using a 17" PowerBook with 2GB RAM, I allocated 1GB to PhotoReviewer for quickest editing. When more memory is allocated, it takes even longer to hit the buffer, if at all. If I am editing quickly, then I can "hit the pre-load buffer" and I must wait for the next image to load (when working with JPEGs, I cannot reach the end of the file buffer). When I use PhotoReviewer, I am mowing through raw camera files of 6 to 11 MB. This pre-load is done in the background and works fairly fast. The program lets you allocate as much memory as you may need to pre-load the images so that as you move through the queue each image loads instantly. If you have hundreds of image files to edit after every shoot, this program does just that very quickly and very well. PhotoReviewer is much faster at viewing the images and moving them to an approved or vetoed folder than either Capture 1 or Photoshop (using the file browser). It is designed to do just one thing well: edit your photos by moving the files from the capture folder to either an "Approved" folder or a "Vetoed" folder. Although I "process" the images in the commercial software program Capture 1 DSLR from Phase One, I do my initial edits ("approved" or "vetoed") in PhotoReviewer. I typically capture several hundred (200 - 600) raw image files from my Canon 1Ds or Canon 10D. I've used PhotoReviewer for a couple of weeks now. Purchased this and iPhoto Library in a weekend and feel like I'm finally getting a handle on my iphoto library. A lot of times I look at the photos in photo reviewer and then don't look at them again after they're imported into iphoto for a while (month? year?) and so I like to have impulse-reaction on photos.ĥ) Some handling of video files (taken w/ still camera) would be useful.Īll in all, great software. However I'd like to see this taken farther with an 'email this photo' button. Would be much easier than going to find the photo you've just allotted to the trash pile (though this isn't too hard).ģ) Statistics! I love knowing 1) how much space I'm saving w/ each veto 2) what number in any given role I've vetoed (percentages, etc)Ĥ) Photo Reviewer has this cool feature where you can ' copy a thumbnail of a photo to the clipboard'. The ability to drag/drop between those screens would be uber cool.Ģ) an 'undo' function on votes. This is what I'd love from this tool.ġ) a separate split-screen window of your Approved and Vetoed photos (small thumbnails) that accrues w/ each vote so you can see what you're doing. ![]() It's fast, efficient and well thought-out for a first-react on photos. Previously this was quite a challenge for iPhoto - now on a first pass I pare off about 50-60% of those with Photo Reviewer. I take on average 7-8 thousand photos a year. I've set it up so that when I plug my camera in, Photo Reviewer is the first to act. I think Photo Reviewer and iPhoto Library ought to get together and sell as a bundle for those users who are constantly pushing the boundaries of iPhoto. ![]()
