You can build a GPS index and use face recognition to tag some images with a person's name and there are ways to automatically sort images that are sort of alike but these are still catalogs even if that are automatically generated If it possible to automate the content to filename mapping. Lots of people shoot wild life or flowers and collect images over several years. The only way is to keep some kind of catalog that maps image content to the filename.

You can't remember over 100 dates and even if you did you likely shot mostly non-frogs of those dates.

What if you like frogs and find about four frogs every month for the last ten years and now finally are putting together a presentation on frog identification and needed to gather your frog images. You had to know in advance the image you wanted was shot in May. And what if the one you were looking for was actually in April. So what do you do with 4,000 images except hunt through them from to back. This site contains user submitted content, comments and opinions and is for informational purposes only.

If you want to know how the app works, try the free trial. If you want to match the DAM and editing capabilities of Aperture then Lightroom Classic is your best bet. Luminar is a triumph of marketing over capability. In around 2 seconds it found over 4,000 of them. Mylio is the only one of the apps that you named that is anywhere close to Apertures DAM capabilities. I typed in "05" to look for images shot in May. Photos is, to my mind along with removing SD Card readers from their laptops, an indication that Apple aren't interested in photographers any more.In the case of Picktorial, there is a search window that teaches through the EXIF data in the files. If Apple had just tweaked Aperture to keep it running on later versions of OS X they'd be in a better place. I used my own folder structure and naming convention rather than use Photos. I don't use photo's at the moment, but I'd consider it and picktorial if I left lightroom. You can't do any of the standard LR stuff around searches and categorisation and so on.īetween keywords, folders, albums, auto albums, and the timeline you can do quite a bit. Although photos is decent now right out of the box.

It gives you a series us non destructive editor on top of photos. Last time I looked it doesn't handle edits well which sort of defeats the object.
#Picktorial for ipad mac
I know quite a few Mac users who export photo's into photo just for the syncing and sharing, so if you are going to export the final product into photo why not just do everything there if you can?īecause you can't do everything there. That would be about it from my point of view. The fact it's free and people use it, it makes my eyes hurt to look at it and it has limited functionality so I don't, doesn't make it a DAM.įree and installed by default. Which doesn't answer the question which was does anyone seriously look at Photos as a DAM? It also syncs everything nicely between all of your Apple devices (phone, mac, tv, etc) It is pretty much the defualt option so there is a decent change the OP is already using it. Millions of people use photos to handle their photos on macs. No comment on Picktorial, but does anyone seriously look at Photos as a DAM? It lets you use apple photos as the DAM but gives you a serious raw editor. Since you use a Mac i would seriously look at
