Shutter Speed Blues - suggestions on how to cope with so many files
Only recently have I started to embrace high shutter speeds when photographing birds in flight.
One problem I realized immediately is that I'm overwhelmed with files.
In the last 9-days on Sanibel I've taken over 7,000 exposures.
It's going to take me forever to do the basic workup!
I shoot raw files and that I do my processing and cataloging with Lightroom 5.
Typically I quickly go through my files to find those that are defective. Those I delete.
All other files are marked as 2-stars.
My preference is to name each species with it's common name. I often apply keywords for things like location and scientific names.
I am familiar with bulk editing and bulk renaming and I do that. But this is still a tremendous amount of time.
Zooming in to see "is the eyeball tack sharp?"
How do you cope with the files you get from high shutter speeds?
How many do you delete?
Any tips you could share would be appreciated!
Thanks!
