A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

We don't want to pay Adobe anymore, so my Dad is looking for an replacement for Lightroom Classic.

He has over 4500 photos in Lightroom and we want a basically drop in replacement.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT1: Also, how do we transfer photos out of Lightroom?

EDIT2: All photos are locally stored.

When R1 was $1, a meal at a restaurant with your family might cost R50

Now a meal with your family can cost R1000.

It is the value of your currency that has changed, not the value of the software.

And that is why we cannot afford it. Unless you are doing very well in your photography field, these extra costs simply drain your bank balance.
