It was painfully slow to open a folder and draw the thumbnails on a computer with quite high specifications. Subjectively, I tend to find Adobe Bridge rather clunky to operate and slow in responding. ACDSee helps me with the cull in at least 3 ways. ![]() I will take a long time sorting through the photographs, in sweeps, which are progressively more demanding, deleting those which I do not want to spend time processing. One of the most important parts of my workflow (Oops! did I just admit to something?) is the culling process. Libraries, collections and the like, clearly work for some, but I import to my date/location file structure, then into Lightroom from there. It might be a consequence of having used computers since before The Ark, but I still tend to think in terms of named and dated folders. You might be glad you tried ACDSee for this reason alone. That might just prove to be a very useful safety net one day. The first copy can be imported to one folder and the second copy can be imported to another location. Presuming that you leave your images on the card in the camera, ACDSee gives you the choice to make two copies on import and to give you those second and third copies of your images. The extension of that thought is that you do not actually have a backup until you have a third copy. I am a huge believer in the adage that “Data only exists if it exists in two places”. ![]()
