Have used Photo and previously iPhoto ever since I purchased my first Apple computer in 2007. Prior to that I have had computers since 1983 and have used Photoshop 7 and Corel Draw. For over 95% of my Post Processing (PP) Photos is my primary software and I use Affinity as my secondary software. Further, I always shoot in RAW. My camera of choice is Nikon and its raw format is NEF.

Lightroom does that for me. RIP Aperture.

Take a look at raw power by gentlemen coders.

photos is based off aperture with a simplified interface. Raw Power was written to bring back the options you had with aperture. The fella behind it was one of the developers of aperture.

I could not have said it better myself-- I am a junkie for the "old windows photos" myself (XP) -- but the version available now on Windows 10 don't cut it.

I believe that most people who do not have much, if any experience, with organizing and editing software; are looking for an easy and comfortable way to begin the process. Clearly, Apple Photos fits the bill for our new friend here. They may start as a casual user, and find that they may want to develop their skills beyond what is offered with their system--or not. Trying to decide now on something that offers growth is 'too much pressure' for someone who basically knows nothing about more robust workflow and needs. Just refer to the many threads our members create who are already involved with programs that offer so much more! Newbies should just go with the path that provides the least resistance, learning curve, and will offer them the ability to see the fruits of their labor quickly and be able to share with others easily. When the 'Force' (I couldn't resist--sorry) takes over; they will be able to better evaluate their needs and jump to more robust software. And then, they can start a new thread with more suggestions than they ever imagined.

I didn't ever noticed that Photos did that. I just tried it and I am amazed at it. Thanks for the enlightenment


I agree. Been using for the past 3 months. JPEG results are truly amazing. Didn’t know it now does RAW. Currently editing shots from our plane flight over the Rockies shot from the window. The software brings out a lot of details.

In Apple's "PHOTOS" app is there a way to select multiple photos and add the same title (rename)? I was able to do this with the prior "iPhotos" app but can't find it under "Photos".

Attached are some images taken at 30,000 feet over Colorado (I think) unedited and edited thru Apple Photos. Guess which ones were edited:

Apple's "PHOTOS" does everything I need and I see many of the earlier posters in this thread feel the same. I don't do layers etc and just need to change brightness, contrast, sharpness, noise, color saturation etc.


I absolutely agree. Does everything I need.
