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.

On1 photo raw. Has catalogs, layers, and very powerful raw processing. Plus you own the software not rent it.

You can migrate directly to On1 by following instructions here.

This is what I use. My biggest gripe is no ability to stack similar photos in the library, but otherwise, it does everything I used to do in Lightroom.

This too is the only thing I miss from lightroom
