Handy hint: I found it helpful to create a Project called All Photos and add every imported photo to it.

As with any catalog, this is worth doing as soon as possible, making it much easier to sort and find the photos later. Then, one can rate the images, add keywords, set color labels, and so on. This moment is a good one to add photos to a Project. Instead, one uses the browser screen to drag and drop the files from your memory card into the Folders browser. For those who prefer to browse, there is a Folders browser too. In Lightroom, I have always used Collections, and PhotoLab 6 has a similar function called “Projects.” It is a quick and easy way of sorting and finding photos. When I did, I could see that it was a powerful tool. It took me a little while to get used to the PhotoLibrary. It's the image quality of the program's raw engine that is where its big advantage stands. However, recently, I compared the raw results from different cameras through various software packages, and PhotoLab 6 blew my socks off.ĭxO PhotoLab is primarily a raw developer, with browser and catalog functions. Nevertheless, I am rarely persuaded to change my workflow. Many different cameras and a wide range of software pass through my hands.
