A side note on HEIC files. Apparently Adobe LRcc doesn't appreciate these files. To show its distaste it locks up. But once that is the file that you closed on when using the "Close app" function in Windows 10 that is the file LRcc will try to open with when you restart the LRcc APP.
Kind of messy to undo the problem. First rename the HEIC polluted catalog to some temp name.Then had to create a new Catalog giving it the name of the catalog that had the HEIC files but with only one folder with no HEIC files. Then could restart LRcc. Then cleanse the renamed catalog of HEIC polluted files. Then unrenmae everything so that I can get back into the catalog that has almost 4T of edited photos. Now that LRcc reopens and it can't find the polluted folders you can go back to remove those folders that had HEIC files that LRcc may look for.
Needless to say I won't EVER try to bring a photo folder from my iphone into LRcc again. I only did it so I could edit the file size down to something that I could e-mail. Sadly there are a number of other iphone functions that when ones tries to integrate into a cross platform activity things come crashing to a halt.

It is good of you to warn UHH readers. It's sad that the problem exists. Of course, my solution is a Mac and different software but to each his own.🤔

I do appreciate your efforts, thank you. HEIC is a much more Modern take on Compression with more potential flexibility. As old as JPEG is, it really is quite an amazing technical achievement.
It would be interesting to see how good HEIC could be if we kept the size the same as JPEG but let quality increase.
I haven't yet seen that kind of comparison, or one that uses HEIC's 16 bit capability, but it would be interesting to see.
Thanks for your efforts


It's nice that at least one person found this thread helpful. My next project will be to start with a true raw file.

Get the Pro Camera app for your iPhone. It can take photos in RAW.


This is what my iPhone 6s can do using "645 Pro". When I am able to do so, I use it and it gives superior features and image quality when compared to the comes-with app in the OS.
This screen shot is only part of an extensive menu system on the app.

True raw as currently offered by Apple requires newer hardware.
