Focalblade topaz detail6/4/2023 And yes, I am aware that Windows comes with the Windows Photos app, but last I knew, that is not even color-managed. But there is, AFAIK, no free Windows photo printing software. Obviously there is Windows photo printing software-I mentioned Qimage in my first post here. Whether the printing function is built into image editing software, or another program, if you want to print photos, then you need one or the other. Just help me understand why an image editing program requires a printing option to begin with? Yes, I'm aware of CUPS, but Windows is not Unix Windows does not function in a similar way.Įither that or one saves an image to the harddrive and uses printing software to do the job. That's what I thought: Windows users still have no decent FOSS option for photo printing.ĭo Windows users need a FOSS option for photo printing? Does it have to be embedded in the editing software? In the linux world there is a system-wide printer driver called cups and the various programs merely use that as indirect driver. Anyone looking for a free raw converter for Sony, Fuji, and/or Nikon cameras should try Capture One Express. My sense-but I haven't tracked the features-is that years ago, Capture One Express for Sony had a larger fraction of the features and controls of the full capture one and that since then, the full Capture One has gotten substantially more capable while Capture One Express has if anything been dumbed down somewhat.īut Capture One Express is free-try it. That said, having tried Capture One Express for Sony in various versions over the years, and also tried the full Capture One a few times, my sense is that the current version is very limited compared with the full Capture One. For others, it may be worth noting that (last I checked) there are also Capture One Express versions for Fuji and Nikon. I have Canon cameras and never used either Lightroom or Capture One, I cannot directly address your question, but I thought you might want to check this out since it is free for you. Since you list a Sony DSLR in your gear, did you know about this option?
