IIRC, there was no late summer update, which is almost always a camera support release. You are correct! While they might add support for new cameras Sony RAW never fully worked with it, though! The "Check For Updates" button under Help is purely cosmetic. You said I was wrong and I was not.
Please read my post again and kindly point to a patch or update they released for the version other than updated camera support. Ble59 - you did not qualify your original claim as to the type of update provided. You WERE wrong. You implied that the software was never updated, and appeared to try and insert FUD into the dialog. I am not going to drag this out any longer. I believe I have documented the spurious claim that this software is not updated. The updates provided over the years vary in number, I assume, the actual number depends on the ACDSee product manager's determination of need.
I'm out on this subject. I switched over from Adobe when they moved to a monthly fee. It was a good move, the YouTube coaching is very good, the controls are intuitive for me, the results have been as good or better than Photoshop. DeHaze and light equalizing are both big in my workflow.
Presets can be saved. I love it and use it way more than LightRoom and Photoshop for that matter, although Photoshop has features that ACDSee does not have and that are more intuitive and efficient. The only thing I don't like about this software package, is that it does not Save and Replace an image. You have to keep renaming the image every time you make changes to it. I'm guessing that's a "Nanny" way of keeping you from inadvertently deleting one of your prize images,but it sure is inconvenient!
When saving, there are both "save" and "save as" options. The "save" option opens a conformation box, but it can be switched off by the usual "don't show again" check box. This is particularly visible on photos I took of fireworks; what should have been clear white streaks of fireworks showed enormous amounts of purple fringing. I also didn't like the rather long delay switching to the RAW editor from the regular photo browser.
You obviously have more experience with ACDSee. Tim ACDSee allows you to save any default values you like to those sliders in develop mode, so your own set of personal defaults would be applied when you open a new RAW image in develop mode. The sub-headline that names the price makes this seem like expensive software, but it doesn't have to be.
I received, and accepted, an offer to purchase Photo Studio Ultimate for fifty bucks, one-third the price you list. And the photo software came bundled with the Luxea video editor. Our editorial policy is to publish list prices for products. Discounts can appear and disappear or change over time, and many products will have special promotions at some point. I understand regarding your price listing policy. I just didn't want the listed price to discourage anyone from at least trying ACDSee.
It's nice to have companies like ACDSee, Affinity, and others who make their products affordable to us non-professionals and modest-budget enthusiasts. I hope the Ultimate will My guess is it's perceived as a new camera body even though the A7RM3 has been out a while. There must be more to it than that, it's been out quite a while. If it's not a technical issue, then maybe a marketing issue of some sort?
Thanks for covering the upcoming release with pertinent and timely I'm working with ACDSee now since over 20years it always has been a little buggy but this improved vastly with the last versions. It's my number one tool and I do make my living from my photography.
Number one reason I use it that it saved me so much of my precious time compared to any other photo browser or editing program! It depends on the length of the relationship. One year qualifies for "ex" status, does one night?
The color noise slider usually has to be put all the way to the right and the luminance slider work in a very narrow interval Below that, not much happens and above that details smear out. But knowing that, satisfactory results can be achieved. The sharpening tool is fine and has an edge mask slider which is useful for avoiding sharpening uniform areas like the sky. I use a two pass sharpening workflow with preset sharpening at import and a second output sharpening when everything including resizing etc.
With the combination of the built in NR and my sharpening procedure, I get better results than with say DXO Pure Raw which indeed removes noise but also blurs details more than I like and sometimes adds halos. I've used Acdsee since actually upgrading for new features regularly.
I haven't yet been able to bring myself to cancel Adobe. I did a few years back and signed up again. Acdsee has some great features, it's in my opinion a far better program for viewing and finding photos. It's noise reduction is poor as said. It's light eq is good but you need to be very gentle with the sliders, same with the highlights sliders, which can cause a red hue if pushed.
The auto mode in eq is terrible, at least auto in Lightroom usually gives a great starting point. However, I would say if you weren't spoiled by the noise reduction in other software and take a bit of time with Acdsee it is actually great value, it generally drops in price after a few months of release.
If the new version has better noise reduction it's definitely a winner. Haven't tried it as yet! Decent image quality. I have the same experience as him re lens correction and IQ.
You should also try Capture one, it's a really nice editor, but I cancelled my subscription there because they are even more expensive than adobe and then adobe still offer cloud integration and lightroom on iPad, something C1 can not compete with. Look at any of my photos in the gallery. I may not be a great photographer, but there are no fails based on software choice.
It's not about how my fotos will become better. It's a work flow that I prefer. I am not going to print or sell but I want a fast work flow that allows easy editing and today LR does that very well for me. But cost wise I don't have to spend this much on an editor and hence thinking if acdsee or dxo makes more sense. With a couple of friends on same boat getting a 89 dollar license for a year may be much cheaper to use in 5 systems. For several years it was my go to program taking over Adobe.
It was even more intuitive with superior overall results and FAR better noise reduction. Flawless lens corrections which ACDsee was not. Oh well time marches on. The one thing I really like in ACDSee's Lens correction capabilities is the manual override ability on geometric corrections. Every once in a while, auto corrections DON'T work, or rather, they work, but just don't render the most visually pleasing correction possible. ACDSee allows the user to override the auto correction with manual controls using the auto correction as the starting point.
It uses the LensFun database for correction information. Incomparably better value than the monthly fee model, which as an amateur, I do not need, nor have the money for well I do but I don't feel it is worth it. The noise reduction comparison against DxO is particularly impressive.
It feels like the equivalent of 10 years of sensor image quality evolution. Can someone confirm if there is "phone home" software running in the background? I think I ran across this while doing research. Yes, it does. What software doesn't "phone home" anymore? Subscription services practically require it.
Does ACDSee have a history panel now? You wrote: "There are also some notable tweaks to the user interface and tools on offer. Several years ago I bought version 9 and it didn't have a history panel. I contacted ACDSee and they told me they disliked history panels such as in Lightroom and other programs and would never add one. Do they have it now? Light EQ - divides the image in up to 3 - 9 different tonal ranges, or zones, and allows the user to adjust tonality of each range separately.
This allows the user to display all or the DR their camera captures. Pixel Targeting - allows the user to interactively create a mask by sliding color and tonality sliders while a tiny mask thumbnail changes as the sliders move.
In , it is only in the Edit tab Ultimate version but exists in almost every editing tool. This allows the user create a mask for a specific editing tool for both really unique situations, and for detailed adjustements. NR is it's weakest feature, no question about it. As mentioned above, the very ABSURD omission of its best feature needs more than 'no-mention': LightEQ is the feature that kept me with this program during whatever frustrations it may have presented nothing's perfect.
One try of this feature and you'll switch right there - the ability to enhance any photo into 'WOW' is actually worthy of the word "Amazing". Forget tone curves! Recent additions of layers in editing make it a no-brainer for the best value, and overall best photo-editing program Oh, and it doesn't try to import your entire library into itself.
Like any other program, it just reads the files off the drive. I've used ACDsee for 15 years It only imports image metadata which is a bit cumbersome, because you have to initiate it manually after adding just 1 pic to a folder. Maybe the other Lightroom the cloud-based does "try to import your entire library into itself". Don't know. I never understood that program the supposed advantage, the way it works from a consumer's pov.
I tried ACDsee 3 years ago, and found a hidden sub folder "[Developed]" created under any folder where you Develop an image. These were up to 18MB. ACDSee support said that these are preview files to "save you waiting" when you next open the photo for developing. In comparison LR creates thumbnail previews less than 0. I found many of the LR preview sub folders to be empty when I checked. There is a further preview file created, stored with the catalog and used by the Manage module so that the thumbnail views represent the edited photo.
If you use the Edit module then a further hidden sub folder is created; "Originals" and a copy of your photo prior to editing is placed in here. So, beware of ballooning storage requirements. Well other DAMs create big "cache" folders too. But it's certainly good to be aware of them. This was a big show-stopper for me, coming from LR subscriptions, bugs, slow and C1 bugs as hell, everywhere and always, support not reacting ; "develop" is not just a "preview" folder!!!
I hate not being able to change where it creates these folders, as it messes with my image source at NAS, but I swallowed this once and never looked back. The NR "limitations" are just a theoretical test on paper: I have never issues in practical usage with it, does a decent job.
You could then uninstall LR and later edit more with other Adobe software or Adobe compatibles, i believe some competitors are compatible, up to a point. I guess every aspiring software review now is mandated to begin with "and there's no subscription. Those people who do not like subscriptions are in denial or like to focus on petty items. The should check what their "subscriptions" are for their utility bills, insurance and medical drugs.
Software for subscription only is a bunch of BS. I threw Adobe out the window years ago and haven't looked back. DXO spanks them all. Well, eveyrbody thinks different; for me it's quite an important point, as I still understand the 'insurance and medical bills' a bit different cashflow as for editing the images. No thanks.
AfterShot has needed a major rebuild for a long time. Glad to see it. I'm a fan of PaintShop Pro, and believe two programs need much better integration. One is tempted to just give up. How either Adobe or Acdsee can market pruducts with such bad noise reduction at all beats me. Check Photos support for your cameras though, you may be very surprised at how wide is their range and how good the software now is. Otherwise all of them are a fail, because they never update the software to include new camera models and lenses!
I'm with you. RAW support on these smaller products is abysmal. I understand the challenges but as a consumer it is a non-starter. At least Capture One has been working on improving this recently. If only Apple could release an Aperture-like advanced editing module for Photos, I would be satisfied. The speed, reliability and industry support in Photos puts professional products to shame, but the tools are just not there. Your post mentions two different issues: Camera software compatibility and noise reduction quality.
DPR's conclusion is that it is good software for amateurs and enthusiasts. As an amateur that uses the version I agree. If I was a pro and making money, I would use Capture One or something else more versatile.
At least about the Fujifilm files they are upfront. Adobe's USM mask minimum of 0. I gave up on Capture 1 years ago. I had it, used it, liked it. Except for one nasty little niggle. It deletes all your imported files. All I did was uninstall a trial of Capture 1 years ago, and that IS what happened. Those photographs no longer exist, as in those days HDDs were so expensive I did not make backups. A lot of world-class original artworks destroyed, not funny. It made my choice a lot easy on weeding out the apps I want to keep.
DXO won't be one of them I keep. I just don't want a subscription based app. You'd think Adobe would keep Elements current too?
One thing to consider is that Acdsee stores keywords and categories in custom XMP tags, this means no other software will see them. You can export to iptc tags but you will loose hierarchy and in case you will decide to switch to another program you will have to tag all your photos again. What you don't understand, is that ACDSee has a unique keywording structure that reduces the need for hierarchy in keywording.
There are Categories and Keywords, which are really two iterations of the same thing. By intelligently splitting up your hierarchy into categories and key words, you can minimize the need for keyword hierarchies. It you have a hierarchy that uses "Festivals State fair" for example, You could put Festivals in the Category file and State fair in the Keyword file.
By logically separating them, and linking them to State fair photos we can create fairly complex hierarchical searches. I could also create the keyword 'flowers' and do a search on 'Festivals' and 'flowers' without traversing every hierarchy that starts with "Festivals". This is a major time saver on keyword searches in a big database. Yes, it is less portable to other systems keywording tools. My understanding is but sorry sorry if i'm wrong : - Plain IPTC doesn't support hierarchies - Hierarchies are always a per-software solution.
About storing keywords - in strictly IPTC-conforming ways for JPG and DNG, inside the file or - after the software's own whims external database , there's pros and cons for both i guess.
I prefer full IPTC conformity right away and would set LR to do so automatically, even if it causes delays when keywording big numbers of photos in 1 go and esp with automatic online backup and slow bandwidth. The same also applies to face annotations. This was at least the case when I checked for Lightroom Alternatives in I agree, Acdsee uses its own namespace for tags instead of using the equivalent tags in standard XMP namespaces this defeats one of the most valuable features of metadata: interoperability Luckily DXO Photolab copies all XMP tags to exported photos, including AcdSee private tags.
Gianpaolo - you are correct in that this is stored in the database records. One useful file management feature I do not see mentioned and that I have never seen in any other product attracted me to ACDSee. This is the option in the file import utility to split raw files into a separate folder from the JPEG files -- for me, this means if I shoot with both formats, I get JPEGs in a date-coded folder and the corresponding raw files identically named in a "raw" subfolder in case I need them, much like the sleeve of negatives in the front of my prints from the lab in the film days.
I just subscribed to LR and I'm learning how to use it. Not if you have a large database. Hierarchical databases are inherently faster than relational databases. Glen, hierarchical databases are a relic of the past. Both relational and no-SQL databases far surpass these today by a large margin, both in speed and where applicable in usability. I KNOW relational, object, and hierarchical databases.
That is, a whole bunch of computers strung together by an OS that can intelligently split up an SQL query into separate sub-queries. The typical personal computer simply cannot do that sort of thing. Relational databases are great for developers and data analysts though, Programs are easy to modify to meet changing needs. But for the preprogrammed type of queries that DAMS do, hierarchical databases remain the fastest and most responsive. Noobie question, but which of these discussed programs are using hierarchical vs those using relational DBMSs?
Curtis Philips - Lightroom uses a relational database. There may be a few others, but not many. Don't misunderstand me, please! A relational database system works well for small to medium sized set of records, but as the number of records increases, the number of computing resources your computer requires for reasonable response time.
Hierarchical delays reaching that bottleneck significantly. Glen Stop spreading FUD. Lightroom can easily handle millions of images in it's database without significantly slowing down. You are grossly out of touch with the advances made in this regards! A good and fair review. I wouldn't use its NR feature for all but the least demanding of situations.
The upcoming version claims to have redone the NR function, but I doubt that it will change my worflow using Denoise AI. Not mentionned is its strong color selection and edit suite of tools. You won't have the big editor found in Ultimate, but for many, it is enough. As for noise reduction, ACDSee claims it to be improved in the version which is to come out by the end of this month.
We'll see how much better it is. I would you are a Canon user Plus Macs are more popular amongst more serious editors who are likely to just stick with Adobe. I shoot RAW and have never had problems with the noise reduction I find it preserves detail and colour.
Wonder how well it renders colors and sharpness of Fuji raw files. Do you have any experience with that? I use it and I find it's noise reduction is fine even for relatively large prints.
Pixel peepers can find a problem anywhere. I do not understand how, with so many customers paying subscription pricing for Lightroom and Photoshop, Adobe cannot remain competitive in noise reduction or speed of the software for that matter. Is it any wonder that its customers are frustrated? I still have not seen reasons compelling enough for me to make a change. So noise is not a big deal for me.
As soon as their iPad app arrives, assuming there is some way to sync, I am ready to give it a shot. Space the final frontier - Agree with your first sentence.
Some peoples strong dislike of Adobe has clouded their vision of reality. Concerning the weakness of noise reduction, DxO now offers PureRaw which allows everyone to combine their workflow with waht is probably the best current noise reduction. At a price, that is, unfortunately. Then the final export from C1 is quick as the NR has already been done and the results are great. See my response up above on keywording. Sorry for delayed reply, the reason for having tree structure for keywords is to help organising animals into proper structure similar to tree of life with synonyms for common names of each species.
It also helps me update them as taxonomic changes are done and properly organise with each publication. As part of our ongoing review of the EOS R6 Mark II we've shot our studio scene and rolling shutter tests, and added analysis of image quality and video performance.
