Hi, I thought i had posted something like this before but i couldn't find it. I am starting to loose a bit of patience with the speed and slow navigation in lightroom that I recordered this video to see if other people suffer from the same.
its getting to a point where its not really usable. As any other canon user (with a mirrorless) knows, electronic shutter is "all or nothing". 20fps or 1 no in between. This means that if I use it (in this case as i was shooting at 500mm and subject a long way away) I get 1000s of photos I don't need (also using a remote rigged up to the hotshoe, so need to keep that finger pressed)
Clensing those photos post shoot and post processing for clients then becomes a right chore
that chore is made even worse by lightroom which just lags and doesnt keep up with my red flagging of images, Either the red flagging (Which you can see stops about 20s into this video then lags to catch up) AND even scrolling through photos - 25 seconds in starts to lag and doesn't keep up as it tried to "process" every image from the raw file each time..... and change the exposure. I really dont need that, i just want to scroll through them flag and delete - but whatever lightrooms processes do, make scrolling through 2000 photos take 2-3 hours - just flagging and deleting - and I've had 10,000 photos to go through for this event -> 3x remotes x 3x rally stages.... so 9 lots of cira 2-3000 photos..... you can see why i am loosing my patience.
Computer is not slow either. its a 2020 Dell inspron manually upgraded by me with a second internal SSD (with the photos on), 24gb of ram, an nvidia card, an I7 intell with 6 cores (2.6ghz) so its not "slow", but lightroom just crawls like this after a minute or so of fast paced editing...
What you can't see from the video is that i am spending aprox the same time on each image, but the scrolling goes slower and is quite inconsistant - in contrast to my mouse clicks as generally i am making call based on the film strip (Because the main image view can't keep up...), obviously that becomes more pronounced at the end of the video where you see it "jump" quickly through about 5 images as it trys to catch up to me.....
Thoughts?
