Funny you should say that, as I am noticing the same thing. I was just playing around last night with batch editing in PS--something I have not really done before--because LR is really slow. Do you see an improvement in PS over LR?

I haven't figured out batch editing in PS yet. They call that actions, right?

For the most part, obviously I can do everything I do in LR with PS, but I just need to keep doing it to get used to it and speed up my process.

Is the editing faster in PS then LR?

I've never done batch editing in PS, only in LR, but it's hard to imagine that PS is faster. PS is really designed to let the editor fuss over a single picture; LR is designed more for quick edits of a lot of shots, and to organise them. It does this reasonably well, but when I need to edit 80-100 shots while shooting live at a game, it can get pretty slow.

If you do not have any photos that you want to edit. How do you change the size of the photo in Photo Mechanic so the photo is 1-2 MBs when you want to FTP?

There are several options for that... From the 'File' tab of the toolbar, you can use the 'Save As' function and specify a size and quality; you can use the 'Export' function, and you can specify size when you FTP them.

FileZilla works fine and is freeware. Photo Mechanic also has an FTP feature.

photodad1 · Aug-13-2012, 04:48 PM #30

Is FileZilla for both MAC and Windows 7? Is it easy to use?

I'll be taking photos of a high school football game this Friday night and the editor wants two photos during half time. Any suggestions on works the best in regards to internet connection? I have an iPhone 4S and might just turn on the hotspot and use with my laptop. The other option is to get an USB air card. Any suggestions?

Yeah, you may have to tether your phone. Otherwise you may have to make a quick trip to McDonalds

photodad1 · Aug-22-2012, 06:58 AM #33

I won't have time to run to MCDonalds as half time is only 15 minutes.

I tether to my phone and submit that way. even if I'm at McDonalds.

Looks like your only choice is to do that in your car or on the field.

Are you using an iPhone 4S by chance? If so, how well does it work for FTPing photos? I was on doing this on the field or my car depending my parking spot.

I have the Galaxy Nexus (android), but it works great if you have a signal. I was using it last night transmitting in Pensacola. The wireless they had there was really slow (~10-20k a sec). Using my 4g phone with Verizon I was getting around 100-300k a sec.

I've seen a lot of this information go by several times over the years. Can it get added to the Sticky?

petereoin · Aug-23-2012, 09:37 AM #38

I thought the original question of the OP was what workflow process is used?

A lot of the subsequent queries could have been answered <style></style>by taking a little time to read the software user manual or tutorial
