blessingx Posted August 17, 2023 Share #41 Posted August 17, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I left Adobe with subscription model for Capture One. With C1 changes I may be shifting to PhotoLab soon (it's good, but not as stable). And Phocus is practically a requirement for Hassys and Sigma Photo Pro for Foveons, so they stay around.

Mine was just a (very simple) example: looking in the specific Leica Exif fields, I found that some are in plain text, other are more cryptic (and maybe useless for photogrphers use). Some of them looks to be self-explaining, my initial guess are: Unknown_0x0305: camera serial number Unknown_0x0407: image name Unknown_0x0408: image directory name on the sd card (under DCMI main directory) Unknown_0x0412: Film Style (including Leica Looks) Just a quick analysis, of course. As you wisely suggested, I sent them to Phil Harvey, maybe he will find them useful. Naturally only Leica may explain in detail what they contains in detail...

Hans-Dieter Gülicher Posted August 21, 2023 Share #43 Posted August 21, 2023 Adobe Bridge > ACR > Photoshop since about 20 years (2005 R9 plus DMR). I have tested Lightroom but I dont`t like it. May be because of my long time experiences with Photoshop. In case of printing my pictures I use inDesign for layouting in order to add graphics and text. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On and off I tried LR a few times but gave up almost immediately. I just think LR is a lesser software as compared to the Bridge/ACR/Photoshop bundle. Edited August 21, 2023 by A.

Dantist Posted August 21, 2023 Share #46 Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) I've started to process (as a test) raw files with Capture One 3 from a M8. Went to Camera Raw for a glance but I hate all the fancy dummy features included in Photoshop for a quite heavy price due to what I expect. Never went to Bridge, nor Lightroom, even if provided free with my last M-P. Tried Silverlight, not satisfied. Rawtherapee, Phocus... For the time being I run Capture One 22 Pro. May be I don't like to jump too easily to any unknon area ? I planned to purchase a M11, but I shall wait for a 1:1 monitor (105 inches ?) with a comfortable graphic card, and a reasonably fast raw processor...

Martin B Posted August 23, 2023 Share #48 Posted August 23, 2023 Mainly using Adobe PS CS6 and LR 5.7. I am not a fan of the subscription-based Adobe cloud based programs. The older versions work fully fine for my post-processing needs. Also using Darktable RAW alternatively to LR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
irenedp Posted August 24, 2023 Share #49 Posted August 24, 2023 I use Lightroom combined with Photoshop for the Leicas and Nikons; and Capture One combined with Photoshop for a Phase One. I find that, as a raw developer, Capture One seems to be better than Lightroom. But I have no C1 experience with Leicas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NZDavid Posted September 8, 2023 Share #51 Posted September 8, 2023 I use Graphic Converter for Macs, recommended by a commercial printer at the newspaper years ago. Produced by Thorsten Lemke, founder of Lemkesoft, Germany, very affordable and capable and very reasonably priced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has saved me over the last 30 years (I'm not exaggerating) several dead lines and night shifts. Great for all (I MEAN IT: ALL) kind of image formats, great batch processing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
