A hobbyist’s workflow

Same here, hobbist.

  • Import in a special import folder on shootingdate. ( move oocjpegs to it’s sub folder inside this folder)
  • Culling with FRV which creates a XMP for the rawfiles.
  • deleting all oocjpeg’s i don’t need (i shoot raw plus jpeg so i can wifi from camera to smarttv and see quick my catch of the day on a big screen.)
  • Use bridge free for adding tags and keywords.
  • open DxOPL to develop the images and fine culling at the same time. When satisfied export with a suffix in a export folder with (shootingdate_location/event)
  • move this folder to my network folder to watch the result on smarttv
  • make changes if needed and then move folder in photo archive.
    Cleanup raw folder and move this to raw archive. (create a sub folder dopfilebackup in side and copy the dopfiles to there. (if a dopfile is molested/ unwanted changed i can delete that en replace.)

Photo archive has three places in my network and one on external disk.
Syncback profides mirrors hierachical one’s a month or by command.
