Image Management Options (besides Bridge/Lightroom)


Recommended Posts

I'm curious to what others are using for Image Management with Affinity Photo? I have Lightroom, Bridge and Nikon ViewNX-i, but just not happy with any of them. Until now (just installed Affinity), for my editing I've used mostly Camera Raw/Photoshop CS6 along with various HDR programs (depending on the project), but for organization/managment, just haven't been able to "click" with anything... I've used ViewNX for years (since '04), and while I really like the way it works, it's features, UI, etc, every version has always been excruciatingly slow and plagued with bugs... Bridge is less buggy and a little faster, but a bit clumsy, not quite as intuitive and lacking in some features. I don't use Lightroom in my normal workflow, and as a photo manager I find it terribly unintuitive and it just does not "flow" for me...

Some searching brings up a lot of possible options, but I'd like to hear what others have been using with Affinity... For those that know ViewNX, ideally I'd like something like it, except that I can actually depend on without dealing with bugs, freezing, etc...

AcDsee, seems to be a popular and consistent choice for a lot of people.

I've been using FastStone Image Viewer for years. 

Always liked FastStone software, their capture software was pretty cool, in fact I've used it today to screen grab a long document.
