Photo Mechanic
Software
Ultra-fast software for ingesting, culling, and tagging large volumes of photos, popular with press photographers.
Photo Mechanic loads JPEG previews and RAW files extremely fast thanks to its own thumbnail engine. This makes culling thousands of photos much faster than in Lightroom. Popular as a pre-selection tool: cull in Photo Mechanic, edit in Lightroom or Capture One. Has extensive metadata and IPTC editing capabilities.
