What is the best duplicate finder for OS X Yosemite

I need to clean up my Mac. What program is the best for finding duplicate files and photos? Apparently Gemini does not work for photo's and I need a program to do both files and photo's.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

I use EasyFind constantly (I hate Spotlight for locating files or folders). But it does lack a way to track down duplicates. For that, I use File Buddy. It's a shareware app, but I believe will run in demo mode for a set amount of time.


Once you launch it, choose Cleaning > Find Duplicate Files… from the menu bar to open this dialogue box.

Choose what you want it to look for as for as matching criteria. Click the + button to add as many volumes as you want it to search on. Here I added the partition Yosemite.
