Lumia 1020 Owners - What is your iPhoto Workflow
I really want to start using iPhoto fully to manage my photos. I have my images from my past two phones in iPhoto already and that's all fine. They were the Lumia 800, and then Lumia 520 as a cheap stop-gap when my 800 broke whilst waiting for my next phone..The Lumua 1020.
I now take all my photos on my Lumia 1020. This combination of the 1020 and iPhoto has a few stumbling points:
- The Lumia 1020 doesn't geotag the 38MP images, only the 5MP
- iPhoto import doesn't seem to work on it's own for me
- Combination of the Windows Phone App and iPhoto allow successful import, but of both the high res and 5MP versions (Still with the same Geotag problem)
If you have a Lumia 1020, what is your workflow you follow from taking your photos, importing, tagging them etc?
I don't mind too much if I end up saving both versions of a file but would like to avoid it with as little hassle as possible, I don't really want to have to tag each image twice (Once for the 38MP and once again for the 5MP).
Some things i'd like to be able to do:
Ideally only keep the high res versions of the images, without having to manually exclude the 5MP versions every time I try an import (Yes I may miss out of some of my reframed photos, but I rarely re-frame except when quickly sharing a file - I can edit the originals once in iPhoto if I want to crop etc)
- Auto tag the high res versions of the images with a keyword of say "HiRes", to make it easier to find them when printing
- Somehow get the Geolocation to work on the 38MP images (I may end up writing some custom code myself to copy the tag over, something would possibly run on the phone, but I haven't looked into it yet)
I tried out the Nokia Image Importer for Mac. It works well, but it does import the 38MP and 5MP and then just drops them into the file system. Although that has some advantages, i',m looking to embrace iPhoto as my photo software, as I assume I can export to file system later anyway.
