[QUOTE="davidzvi, post: 373213, member: 5899"] When I was shooting events I used Photo Mechanic as a culling tool, saved me a lot of time. I use Lightroom for most of post processing, the last perpetual license version (6.14). I've considered going on the subscription, but I'm more concerned about what happens when you go off subscription. The big issue for me is Lightroom is the best DAM, I've tried a number of them and none have something as simple and easy as the Library Metadata filter. Both Camera Bits (the makers of Photo Mechanic) and Affinity are suppose to be releasing a Dam, so we'll see. So far my cameras have been supported, but it's also helped curb my GAS for the latest E-M1, E-M5 and the X100v. So that's also plus. I used CaptureOne Fuji sometimes, but not often. With my Pen F I've been using the Olympus Workspace for mono processing. I usually make a few adjustment and then export to a TIFF and finish up in Lightroom. For anything beyond Lightroom I have an old version of Photoshop and the current version Affinity Photo. I'm still more familiar with PS, but working on the switch. [/QUOTE]
