Feature to downgrade RAW to jpeg, and delete raw file
Hello
For many years, I have been looking for a to easily downgrade my RAW files to jpeg, in order to save disk space. My catalog is about 700 Go today.
Why does it make sense ?
Not all my picture deserve to be kepts in RAW as many picture has no artistic interest. In parallel, I save my pictures in a Cloud and therefore I'm limited in the total amount of space it takes. At last, this would participate to an "green IT" effort...
How should this be implemented ?
Must haves
- Process photos that are selected by the user.
- Metadata/keywords etc should be preserved.
- The jpeg file should be automatically added in the same folder than the original RAW file.
- The jpeg file should be automatically added to the LR catalog.
Nice to have :
- Propose an option to copy the RAW files in a directory (but outside of LR) for safety. That would allow to to reimport it if case of selection error
Hoping this suggestion will retain attention and interest,
Thanks in advance,
