Save snapshot as jpeg

[ClausJ]

I use save as snapshot rather than final renders. The save as PNG is convenient but a screen size file get large, easily 10 mb. So sharing a handful of renders with a client get huge and is beyond emails.

In addition I use these snapshots to keep track of how projects evolve. I just checked one of my several jpeg folders, it has 3000 Keyshot jpeg snapshots. Stager would inflate this folder to 30 gb (1.4 gb currently).

Is there an option to make a jpeg snapshot? Could we have that for the future?

OK, I just discovered a quick workaround, on mac choose a bunch of files and right click to access quick action "convert to jpeg". Does the trick. Still my request remain.

You can render in Ps file than resize it in Ps or export any format you want. Or use another program for capturing screen.

Just found this article about how to make an action that automatically converts an image in a folder on MacOSX. As long as you save your snapshots to the same folder they will automatically convert to jpeg:
