What software do you use to upload your digital pics?

[Southgate]

Just interested to see what people use and why?

 

[Southgate]

I use MS wizard cos its quick and easy!

I got slightly confused by the title, I thought you meant upload to websites...then realised you meant, to get them off the camera.

Easy - used to just drag'n'drop (camera is recognised as a USB drive, or stick card in a reader) - but now I let Adobe Lightroom 3 (beta) do all the work because it files them away as well...

I just open two finder windows. One open to a directory on my HD, the other to the card in a card reader. Select all the photos I want to transfer (usually all) and drag it to the HD. I have a folder for each camera. In each camera folder there's a folder for each year, then if need be, a folder for each month, or maybe for a specific event (e.g. 'france_july'). Very low-tech, I know, but it survived moving from mac to windows and back again over almost a decade.

I use Apple's iPhoto, which is okay but not very sophisticated.

I take my 35mm film to Walgreen's, and ask them to make me a PhotoCD with no prints.

I chose "Other" even though I'm not sure if the OS itself is specialised enough to be called a program. My main camera these days is my phone which is seen as a USB device. I use a card reader for my Fuji's pictures. I copy and paste manually, much as dan m does, then delete what I don't like.

I use picasa for Mac, because it copies photos into folders generated by date taken.

I hate iPhoto because all material is kept in 1 file.

Picasa

EOS Utility.

 

[garyi]

Aperture

 

[cliffpatte]

depends on the Camera, with the Hasselblad back I use FlexColor 4.9.7. My coolscan has it's own interface software. Windows 7 64 bit edition sees Nikon bodies as USB drives and depending on what I want to do with the RAW file I use CS4 64 bit or Nikon Capture NX2 from there on.

Cliff,

You bought a digital back for the Hassy?

Cliff,

You bought a digital back for the Hassy?

Joe

yes, used it to shoot this, amongst others ...

 

[Joe P]

Nice, Cliff.

I also have a digital back for my Hassy -- a flatbed scanner -- but I use a portable acetate-based light-sensitive transfer device for the initial capture because I couldn't get the scanner to stay attached. Not even duct tape worked.

Hi Joe I tried that approach too and got something like this:

not sure what to try next, perhaps using a digital camera to shoot a picture of the view into the WLF might work too ;-)
