Image Enlargers & Resizing Software (15) new Now we have the list of 210 tools for photo editing and photo manipulation (excluding 97 mobile apps)! In the beginning, there were only 61 photo tools, and I thought that it’s a huge list! :) So, the first 5 to 10 items in each section are the best one (in my personal opinion).Īs always, I want to say thank you, redditors! I’ve got a lot of comments about including some kind of recommendations to the list. It will be live very soon! So, there is no mobile apps section in this list. And I decided to create the separate list of photo editing mobile apps. Also, during my new research, I’ve found that there is almost 100 photo editing mobile apps on the market (in the previous list there were only 31 mobile apps). Some of the apps had gone away from the market (you’ll find them in the list). If someone of you, redditors wants to help me with building the website - just send me a message. Actually, I’ve already bought the domain :) And the next steps will be putting all this software to the website with filters and user rating option. But I decided to continue doing this research. Today I’m no longer with Photolemur (I’ve left Photolemur a week ago). The next list came with 148 photo editing tools Then, ten months after, I’ve published a new list 186 photo editing tools and apps. The article got 5,419 shares and tons of comments with a new portion of great tools for photo editing. Then, Michael Zhang, Petapixel’s Editor, asked me to repost this list on Petapixel. After the very first post in 2016, I’ve got a lot of suggestions from redditors and decided to complete another list 104 Photo Editing Tools You Should Know About. The first list was '61 Photo Editing Tools and Apps'. The short story behind this list: I’ve started this research for my project Photolemur in July 2016. I hope that helps.Another year passed and I’m here with the renewed list of photo editing software. It’s all in one place and cannot get lost. That’s why I prefer having the edit information in the DNG files. But then it can easily happen that you move files somewhere else with a software that only shows the photo images and all of a sudden the sidecar files are no longer avaliable at the new location. But the same thing works with PEF of course - and you will have the XMP sidecar files for each photo. ![]() Also viewing the files in Adobe Bridge will show the keywording, rating, etc. I rather want to have my editing steps be stored in each file, so in the worst case (catalog file corrupted) I can import the files into a new catalog and the edits are still there. The risk that this catalog file gets corrupted is much higher than all RAW files will. It’s nice to have all the edit steps in the catalog file, but that is about 2 GB in my case and gets rewritten all the time. Just let Lightroom write back all changes and don’t kill the process in the middle. Of course there is a small risk that rewriting a RAW file will corrupt it, but I see the risk as not critical. If the camera supports DNG I don’t see why not using it.Ībout the editing steps being stored in the DNGs or not: I finally switched that feature on in Lightroom. The cameras know how to properly write the image data to DNG right away and you will end up with a consistent and very well supported file format. I have a K-5 and a K-3 II and both of them are set to DNG. However, what I would do is switching the RAW format to DNG in camera. If we’re already talking about leaving the RAW files untouched, this would be the first thing: don’t convert your PEF files to DNG. It would be surprising if the PEF to DNG conversation was broken in some way, but you never know. The bug got fixed at some point, but any issues with the converted images couldn’t be repaired. Many people did that and threw away their original RAW files. There have been issues with a certain Lightroom version, when it came to converting Canon RAW files to DNG. Here’s what I think: converting your already existing files to DNG is not necessary and actually the conversion can potentially deteriorate the photos. Most halfway decent photo editors should however support PEF. No matter if DNG is an “open format” or not: it’s far more often supported by imaging software than PEF.
