Efficient and effective RAW photo editing – Priime Review

Back in Sept. ‘08, Hurricane Ike invited over four feet of brackish Galveston Bay saltwater into our home/home studio. If it wasn’t digital, it drowned. Over 25 years’ worth of mounted color transparencies and sleeved BW Tri-X negatives, gone with the outgoing tide. My digital stuff, especially RAW files? Mostly intact, backed up on portable hard drives so they would be on hand should a magazine art director or graphic designer need anything from my image bank. If, like me, you happen to have tens of thousands of RAW images hibernating on backup drives and cloud storage, it’s time to wake them up. This program makes RAW editing a joy. It also makes you happy you didn’t ditch the RAW format on the whole, despite the well-intentioned advice to do so from the majority of photographers who today shoot 100 percent JPEG. I’m really looking forward to the next.
