This is what I call the central hub approach. Or do this when you have finalized your images in your image editor - this depends on your preferences. Maybe use Metadata Templates to fill in standard metadata. Optionally use the Renamer to rename the filers, create new folders on-the-fly, move files, create backups. You can browse the files, use the Viewer in IMatch to do a quick review/cull as needed. Now your files are already organized by IMatch.

If this folder is indexed by your IMatch database already, IMatch picks up the new files automatically. Many users (me included) just download/copy new files into a dedicated 'Import' folder. Tip: Check out Working with RAW Images in the IMatch help system for some good info for starters. No need to duplicate things or come up with my own version of the wheel in IMatch. Windows has built-in functions for that, and your RAW processor / Adobe / Affinity product have them too. IMatch does not have import features - if you mean by import to 'download' photos from the camera somehow? I have never used Photo Supreme so I cannot comment on that. C drive is an SSD.Ĭan I similarly export images in Imatch to Affinity Photo or other programs like CS6 (which I still have and use) similar to Photo Supreme? I am running Windows 10, Intel 4077k overclocked to 4.2 ghz, 32 gb RAM, and a gtx 970. I tried Photo Supreme and liked its import and export functions, but found it very slow. I know I seem clueless, but I am just trying to set up an easy workflow. I have tons of file folders imported through Bridge to manage. I generally import all images into essentially folders in Windows Explorer and then process the RAW image I select, and then export to Affinity Photo for final processing or compositing. Is there a suggested workflow listed on this site?

How do Imatch users import and then integrate with Imatch? Import with the RAW processor or does that mess things up? Import with a program like Photomechanic? I have a couple of very basic workflow questions. I used to use Photoshop CC, but transitioned to Affinity Photo and go back and forth between Capture One Pro and DXO Photolab.

Like many I am an non-pro, but shoot a lot of MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Strongman/Strongwoman competitions and have tens of thousands of pictures over a decade to organize. I briefly used the trial before my trial period expired.
