Street2Stream Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Just wondering what is happening to the development of Digital Asset management for Photo. Have been waiting for ever for it as without it, photo becomes less and less attractive as far as workflow and photo retrieval is concerned. As I have switched from canon to Fuji, LR is less an option so clearly need a change. Anyone heard what is happening here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know about Capture One Express for Fuji, right? It is the only RAW converter I really think can render the RAW files with the organic look I love from the SOOC pictures.

Street2Stream Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 Thanks Jowday, I had looked at Cap1 but as I also have canon gear I was led to believe it only works with Fiji files. Can you pls confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you pls confirm? Yep, the free Express edition only works with Fuji files (or Sony). I still recommend it for developing your Fuji RAW files though - it's awesome. The professional edition will work with Canon files as well but it is fairly expensive. Quote "The user interface is supposed to work for me - I am not supposed to work for the user interface."

Street2Stream Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 I believe that the Fuji has a different pixel format and LR can’t handle it. How does Cap One go as a DAM. I am trying to get away from cloud base and use my own drives but I also work between iPad and Mac so would like some form of sync for workflow.

I am trying to get away from cloud base and use my own drives but I also work between iPad and Mac so would like some form of sync for workflow. Lightroom/Photoshop/CameraRAW reads Fuji files but not everyone is pleased with the results. Not as great as the rendering in Capture One, no doubt, but much of the difference is for pixel peepers. Both programs also support Fuji camera colour profiles - classic chrome fx. Still, Capture One delivers the aesthetic rendering of the two. You are thinking about DxO Photolab - it doesn't support Fuji XTRANS sensor data. But I also purchased it for other cameras. It is a great program with superior noise reduction. Give Capture One Pro as shot if you want to evaluate the DAM - your are the best judge. I don't use it for that. I don't remember if the free Express version includes DAM. https://account.captureone.com/en/download-trial Quote "The user interface is supposed to work for me - I am not supposed to work for the user interface."
