Hi there!
I am looking for a software for a low spec notebook that I can use when traveling for organising photos from my camera. I basically just want 2 things for the low spec device:
- Backup photos ( .RAF files from my Fuji X-S10 with 55 MB per photo).
- Rate photos (1-5 stars) in a way that I can use the ratings in Lightroom afterwards on my Mac, without using Lightroom itself on the low spec device
After I return home from traveling I want to:
- import photos to Lightroom and convert them to .DNG
- use the star ratings I previously set on the low spec device in Lightroom
Does anyone have an idea which software to use on a low spec device? Ideally it’s a free software.
Thanks and kind regards
I have the same camera and you can choose to shoot lossless compressed to help the whole process and use Capture One for Fuji to edit. It’s really light, I think, and it’s free. Give it a try.
If you have a lightroom license you can also use bridge.
I have a low spec laptop that I used for more or less the same thing when I was in Spain, it was nothing more than a glorified back up drive. As long as you don’t want to do any editing and aren’t in a rush you don’t need anything special. I ran lightroom on the laptop, it struggled but it did the job.
I can’t even tell you the spec for the laptop, it was a refurb bought at work for €500 about 4 years ago and I bought it from the company for something like €200. So it was never anything special.
Thank you!
Fast will let you cull and burn rating into the metadata and then see that in LR
Thank you!
You can try Adobe Bridge.
Thank you!
