Dear forum users!
I’ve bought a Mac mini M4 Pro to migrate my PL8/FP7/VP4 from the current Win11 environment. All my RAW edits are stored in *.dop and *.xmp files. Projects I’m using only for temporary edits. As far I’ve understood from other postings, they are stored in the PL database and can’t be migrated from PC to MAC - not a big issue for me.
For the naming of my RAW files I’m using Total Commander (no version for MAC) which allows me to apply a format which fits my needs through bulk editing e.g.: from Z63_5295.nef to Z63_05295_2024-11-10_Suzhou_Tigre_Garden.nef
Is there a possibility/tool in the MAC world?
My overall expectation is to get:
- better performance
- reduced noise and energy consumption footprint
- more consistent UX (compared to Win)
than my current Desktop PC with Nvidia graphic card.
As a matter of fact I’'m totally new to the MAC world and very interested about experience/feedback and advice around this topic.
Thanks & best regards
Erhard
