Opticull 1.8.0

January 25, 2024

In photography, culling is the process of selecting final deliverable photos from all the photos taken during a photoshoot. Generally, culling is done before editing the photos so that only the photos that need to be delivered are edited, and editing effort is not wasted.

OptiCull magicully sorts duplicates into scenes, rejects blurry and blinking photos, and selects the best keepers automatically based on your culling preferences. Even for manual culling, you can sift through duplicate scenes using innovative side-by-side comparison and zoom modes.
