RawTherapee has no library at all, so it can’t be considered for a primary digital darkroom, sadly.

AfterShot Pro 2 has all the metadata searches and filters and all, but no user-definable albums or smart albums, both of which are more or less required for my workflow.LightZone has no library, no catalog, no keywording, so it’s not really worth mentioning.So let’s make this as short as possible, though I see I’ve already failed on that front… First, the Library functions, or lack thereof: First, on the photo-editing/negative conversion front, how easy was Ripped, Drop to process/modify and what was the outcome? (I’ll get to those shortly.) And second, on the Library/image organizing front, first, does the software have one, and second, can I use it to more or less easily organize my library, add/edit metadata, find pictures, etc.? To answer my questions, I focused on two primary areas. But it’s useful to compare various outputs, and that image makes up the basis of my decision-making, so it’s good to have extra images to look at. The extra comes courtesy of Affinity Photo, which didn’t make the cut because it’s really a Photoshop rival (and a pretty good one) and I have no need of a PS clone, especially since I own a licensed-if rarely used-copy of CS6. But if you read the RPP review, you know that I didn’t get a usable Ripped, Drop out of it, so where did that extra one come from? I only reviewed eight applications, and there are eight pictures above. I went much further in the reviews linked above, so I’ll try to keep this short and general. The answer, in short, is “Yes, absolutely and without question.”īut let’s take a bit of a deeper dive.

So the question: is there anything out there, free or paid, that can match or exceed Lightroom in ease of use and quality of output?

The subscription model is ok, I suppose: assuming a 2 year upgrade cycle, it’s triple the $80 upgrade fee, and for that $160 extra dollars, you get two years of Photoshop and Lightroom Mobile, plus whatever shiny tools that Adobe decides to grace users with,* and for many people, it’s probably worth it. I wanted to see if there was something else. Otherwise, why not delay the release a month, or just release the tools as part of the original release (after all, they had already demoed the tools at AdobeMAX back in 2014). Adobe, of course, insists that the subscription is a response to government interference vis a vis Sarbanes-Oxley… it’s a bit complicated, and maybe true. And to prove it, they updated CC with shiny new tools just two months later, thus showing their commitment to subscription models/profits instead of users.
The extras in the subscription are enticing, if you need them, but the whole thing smacked of profit taking, to me. 70 210 as slide duplicator 2 ©JamesECockroft 20150427 DxO better2Īctually, before we get too much into that, what’s the question, even?įirst, some background: Lightroom CC debuted back in April, and it was hard to even find a straight upgrade to LR6 at first.
