features which would make you upgrade?
« on: November 27, 2024, 06:29:33 AM »
i share peoples frustration with cost etc of the new Photo Mechanic.

But if we are constructive just for a moment or two:

What feature or x would make you update?

I would think about it if there is custom shortcuts. It really annoys me and, I, of course think it should have been implemented years ago. And it should include all options which would also make automatisation quicker (the automatisation software like key strokes better than moving the mouse around).

Secondly make the option of doing captions, cropping, choosing what FTP go upload and light editing in one window.

What do you think? Or there is nothing that can make you upgrade?

Well, I have a lot of things on my wish list. Custom shortcuts is one of them as well plus various quality of life improvements to day to day tasks, such as ability to turn code replacement files on and off, and reload/refresh them from Ingest window. Sadly these front-end features doesnt seem to be important enough yet

Well, if they want to charge the money they want they have to do something and we should try to get our things. Unless they think there are no competitors for them.

And they do read this forum and sometimes things are added.

I assume they will do a change of the interface and I hope we can get it customised. So we could change it what fits our workflow. I would like to have one which is optimised for speed so it, for example, opens the last photo in and Im ready to work immidately. There are clearly some things which can be done to make it even faster......

But customisable shortcuts is a big one and it should have been implemented in the old version I think......

A built in raw converter with camera matching profiles and batch processing capability to bring the product closer to Lightroom’s level of features. Do that and I’ll ditch the Adobe subscription and happily pay Camerabits instead.
