What is the best workflow for amateur usage?
9 months ago
Hello,
my use of photography is to share in some social networks like twitter or instagram, share some photos with family and the most important, keeping memories for future, for me and my sons.
I want to "waste" the less amount possible for taking, processing and sharing the photos, but I want one step further of my iPhone.
My ideal workflow is to shoot in cRAW, with the camera connect app send the photos to my iPhone (photos are automatically synched to my iCloud). Process in the iPhone or iPad some images and share them. The idea of shooting in cRAW is just if I like very much a photo, to take some time for going back to the sd card, getting the RAW file and process carefully in my Mac. For the rest of the photos I have enough with the jpg file.
I decided to go for cRaw because I am not looking the perfection and taking less MB than normal raw, I can do series of photos faster, and this can be really make a difference in the photo I can take.
I bought a M6 mark ii because is portable and I can bring at any place any moment with the 22mm.
But I found a problem that breaks my workflow. When saving the photos to my iPhone with CameraConnect, if I have shot in cRaw automatically save the photo in jpg (which is good for me) but with very poor resolution.
I have done tests and if I shoot in JPG and download to the iPhone photo size is 8mb, if I shoot in cRAw photo downloaded is 1 mb.
I can think in two solutions:
Shoot in cRaw+jpg fix the issue, the problem is that the card will work (slower) due to the overhead of creating the jpg.
Shoot in jpg, card will work with fastest speed but I am losing the possibility of maybe fix a photo that I like so much.
Edit: Just edit to tell that I process the images with Pixelmator Photo and Pixelmator Pro
How it is your workflow? What of the options would you choose in my case?
