Photo Mechanic 4.6.9

Camera Bits Photo Mechanic is a photo "browser" designed with speed and ease of use in mind. You can call it a "photo editor" as well. But unlike other photo editing programs that are designed to work with one photo at a time in order to edit its pixels, Photo Mechanic is designed to work with groups of photos together in order to manage them. Professional photo editors who handle lots of photos daily, often under deadline, understand this distinction. Their job involves selecting photos, not selecting pixels.

Photo Mechanic takes the work out of workflow
Fast Sort — Photo Mechanic helps you quickly find your best shots. Custom sorting methods are available for your particular workflow. Multithreaded software works in the background to keep ahead of you, so images appear blazingly fast. You can view your originals full screen, compare similar shots side by side, delete the bad shots, tag photos while watching a slide show, and sort your keepers into multiple folders.

Fast Workflow — Work with batches of Photos to:

Import
Photo Mechanic's powerful Ingest utility lets you copy images from several flash cards simultaneously, flatten the directory structure, apply IPTC metadata (City, State, Photographer's name, Copyright, etc.), create a backup on a separate hard drive and rename your files — all in one step! The ability to open a Contact Sheet during ingest allows you to start editing your files immediately, no more having to wait until the copy process is complete.

Edit
You can quickly rotate, preview, copy, delete, tag, watermark, rename, resize, and add IPTC meta-data to photos both individually and in batches. Adjust capture dates and times, change a files resolution, or embed an ICC profile into your JPEGs. Lock previews and pan them around together to compare details efficiently. Manually arrange photos in an arbitrary order, including across multiple folders.

Annotate
Photo Mechanic makes it easy to add common "IPTC" (or meta-data) information (like city, state, keywords, and caption) to groups of photos at once. Reduce time and improve accuracy when captioning files by using the Code Replacement feature.

Output
Create web galleries, print contact sheets, transfer photos to an FTP server or upload them to an online service such as PhotoShelter. Send photos to your clients via email, or archive your keepers by burning them to CDs or DVDs.

Configure it your way - Put image meta-data to work to customize your results. Do you want to include shutter speed, aperture and caption information with your prints or web page (and sometimes the date and city, but never the time)? Rename files by photographer & state? Sort photos by city or date? Automatically convert the color profile for web photos so they look their best and stay small? Configure your own preferences or stay with the friendly defaults.

Additional Features :
• Rotate your JPEG files without loss of quality.
• Display file Exif information.
• Tag your files during a slideshow presentation.
• The Structured Keywords feature uses a hierarchically arranged controlled vocabulary (CV).
• Use the Show Map command to plot a photo with embedded GPS coordinates in a window using Google maps.
• Sharpen thumbnails for display.
• Full support for IPTC4XMP core specifications — UTF-8 character support.
• Assign a Color Class or 5-star rating.
• Inline spell checking helps you create accurate IPTC captions.
• Write IPTC captions in your choice of language.
• New customizable multi-line thumbnail labels

Version 4.6.9:

• Added support for the Exif 2.3 Serial Number tag for newer cameras that actually write this field (i.e. not guaranteed to be there even if camera is writing Exif 2.3).
• Improved support for the Canon EOS 1DX and EOS 5D Mark III, including a problem with Ingest not tagging Locked photos (in the camera).
• Added support for RAW ORF files from the Olympus E-PL3 and E-PM1.
• Added memory cache recovery for better handling of large images (e.g. greater than 25 megapixels) to alleviate problems with 100% previews. This was mostly an issue on Windows because of its reduced application memory compared to Mac OS X. If you are experiencing problems with operations such as Save As with large images then try to avoid zooming to 100%, and also try reducing the size of your memory cache preference (having a large memory cache can exacerbate low memory problems).
• Fixed various memory leaks that could eventually cause a memory allocation failure for users editing or ingesting a very large number of photos.
• Fixed an issue when sequentially ingesting cards with filenames that overlap. This can happen when the user sets their camera preference to start filer numbering at 0001 for each card.
• Fixed an issue with copying/ingesting JPEG files while embedding ICC profiles under certain circumstances.
• Fixed a problem updating XMP in LZW-compress TIFF files saved by Capture NX2.
• Fixed issues when updating IPTC/XMP metadata in PNG files that have had tag, rating, color class, or crops applied.
• Changes to repeatable IPTC fields such as keywords and caption writers no longer causes unwanted warnings when the changes are only related to formatting (e.g. white space).
• Added a workaround for viewing NEF files processed by Nikon Image Transfer that are not written properly.
• Fixed a problem with adding GPS coordinates to Canon 30D JPEG files.
• The Exif Digitized Date/Time tag is now updated when using the Adjust Capture Times command.
• Ingest now ignores Fuji FFDB.DAT files, Canon Comstate files, and EYEFI folders.
• Lossless JPEG rotation now uses default DPI setting instead of Save As DPI setting.
• Fixed a problem with PM SlideShow playback becoming unresponsive with a large number of files.
• Updated the ZenFolio uploader template to use their new API server URL.
