Switching from RawTherapee/GIMP on PCLinuxOS to Lightroom Classic on iMac

Dear Adobe Lightroom Classic Users,

 

Intro: I'm Tanmay, a hobby photographer based in Taunus region of Germany.

Current Camera: Canon EOS 90D (.CR3 RAW format)

Post-processing using: RawTherapee 5.8 & GIMP 2.10 on PCLinuxOS

 

Query: Whilst switching to Lightroom Classic?

Background:

  • The current implementation of RawTherapee 5.8 does not natively support the Canon CR3 format
  • So I have to manually apply the camera profile and adjust the white balance, before I can actually start the post-processing.

Current thought proccess:

  • I have been advised to switch to Lightroom for better post-processing of images
  • I have over 16,000 photos occupying over 330GB (RAW & processed) that are organised in folders as per dates

Help required:

  • Has anyone an experience in switching from OpenSource world to LrC?
  • Since I'm not keen on a cloud version, is there any limit of photos/diskspace in Lightroom Classic?
  • Can I choose - how I organise my photos? or LrC decides it for me?
  • What is the price of the subscription?
  • Anything specific that I need to keep in mind whilst "finalizing" my switch?

 

Many thanks

With kind regards

Tanmay Joshi
