So I am finally starting to use Lightroom for my RAW processing work flow, and am stumbling over the really basic fact that it doesn’t seem to recognize any tags I attached to the images when editing a take in Photo Mechanic. I would like to keep my initial editing, captioning and batch-renaming in PM, since I know it and like the work flow, and then use Lightroom after I have completed the first sifting through. Am I missing something here?
When first researching Lightroom vs Aperture, I came across repeated complaints that Aperture won’t recognize any metadata from other programs, but didn’t see anything like that in regards to Lightroom. Am I just doomed to created folders upon folders upon folders, or is there an easier solution?? Thanks!
