ImageMaster -- Not sure about importing directly from Extensis Portfolio or how and where the data is stored. Once installed (I use mac OS) one can point Photo Mechanic at a folder where raw, xmp, jpeg files are stored and 'ingest' them ('ingest' is Photo Mechanic's terminology for import). I'm pretty sure that you can ingest (import) folders leaving them in the same location (of course, in my context I'm mainly I'm shifting images from a card to a hard disk & so am 'copying'). Photo Mechanic is very flexible, and that flexibility means there is a little bit of a learning curve because you can do all sorts of things during the ingest process (such as rename, specify how new folders can look etc etc).
I just looked at the camera bits web site and there is a "Try Photo Mechanic For Free" tab. Perhaps it is worth doing a trial? I'd be inclined to be very safe here and create a workspace different from where your images are stored, create a "mini library" from a subset of your existing photos and experiment with PM for a while.... Might be fun anyway, even if it doesn't work out as a long term solution for you :-)
Hope this helps......Show more →
Thanks. All my 20,000 images are in one catalog.
