I have a license for Creative Cloud, so I kicked Lightroom's tires, but found it to be clumsy and bloated (like many of the other CC apps nowadays.), and worst of all-even slower than Photos for my batch sorting and editing workflow!Īfter doing some tests with Lightroom and Photos, I chose to finally ditch Aperture and switch to Photos because: Some pros decided to go all-in to Adobe Lightroom. Even things like switching quickly between editing and browsing photos are annoying, since there's a mandatory animation that takes an extra 1/3 second every time I flip between photos! Things like the loupe tool and star ratings are missing entirely, and adjustment sets and workspace layouts are present but weak. Photos, more the successor to iPhotos, is a consumer-oriented tool, with a decent toolset, but very little workflow customization and limited photo adjustments and inspection tools.
It was fast, it had tons of great organizational features, and was highly adaptable. Aperture was by far my favorite tool for both organizing and manipulating RAW photos taken with my DSLRs. There are many, many photographers who were disappointed Apple decided to discontinue Aperture development. but it's not the end of the world moving to Photos. All-in-all, I wish Apple didn't ditch Aperture. Tl dr: ~600 GB photo library, took ~3 weeks to migrate, some things are awesome (access to all my photos everywhere, on any device), some things less so (faces don't get synced, no loupe, no five-star rating system, no pro-level editing/batch workflows).
