Cull

Three hundred shots from one day: keep the good ones, drop the misses. One key per photo, the next comes at once, and the marks are written into the files as you go.

In the manager: right-click → More → Cull (from here, or the chosen ones), ☰ → Cull pictures…, or right-click a folder → Cull pictures…. Shots taken within a second of each other become a burst.

The Cull window

1. Which ones. All, not marked yet, chosen, rejected — with how many.
2. How far. How many looked at and how many to go; yellow for the chosen, red for the rejected.
3. Next after a mark. On: a key that marks goes on to the next shot by itself.
4. One shot at a time, or the burst side by side. C
5. The shot. Z or a click: 100 % where you point, to see if the eyes are sharp; again for the whole shot.
6. Light and sharpness. Its histogram, and how sharp it is next to the others of its burst — Sharpest of the burst is a hint, not a verdict.
7. Mark. Stars, Reject and the colour labels; written into the file as you make them.
8. The strip. Every shot, the bursts held together, its marks on each.
9. The keys, always in view — and Done… at the end.

Keys

Done

Done… counts the chosen, the rejected and the not marked, and takes care of them. The rejected: moved into a folder _Rejected beside them (out of the way, nothing deleted — look through it later, or delete the folder in one go), moved to the Recycle Bin, or left where they are, only marked. The chosen: straight into Convert if you like — RAW shots into JPEGs in a folder beside them. A RAW shot's JPEG and .xmp always go with it.

Closing without Done keeps every mark in the files, so you can go on another day — or find them in the manager with rating:>=1.
