In this post Sime asks Ste’ to review Photo Mechanic by Camera Bits .
I’m not a professional photo journalist, however, I do tend to hang around with a number of them and I know for a fact that most of them rabbit on about their work flow and how it can be a real nightmare sometimes. The idea of a photo journalist is that they take the photos that the news outlets want to see and print, stick them on their laptops as quickly as possible during or after the event and run them up in some piece of software that allows them to compare, choose, tag, edit, keyword and upload all as fast as is humanly possible. I have asked a friend and UK Press Photographer, Stephen Simpson.
