Image Capture for PL3

Now that DXO PL3 supports keywords I am considering not using LR Classic for my image library looking for a simpler method. At the present time I have been trying Image Capture to import images from my memory card to my iMac then using PL3 for organizing with keywords and projects.

Although Image Capture does work ok I am wondering if other PL users have an import method that they are using I may be interested in trying.

Thank you.

Depending on your camera maker, try their software.

I use Canon’s EOS Utility v3 and connect my camera direct to my PC.
It allows me to look through the images prior to download, so I can bin any ‘duff’ ones before I even download. Then I use Fast Raw Viewer.

CAUTION
PhotoLab writen ONLY in its database and do not generate sidecars.xmp.
For the moment the system is closed.

So you are recommending that I do not use PL for keywords, rating etc.?

For rating of course yes and temporary keywords.
But not to build a catalog. Not with this release.

Do you have any recommendations for catalog software?
