The worst part about being a photographer is going back through all of the hundreds, if not thousands, of photos you just took to try and find the best ones to post. It’s a tedious, arduous process that is the bane of my existence especially when dealing with so many near identical photos. Thankfully, Canon has a solution. AI capable of deleting your worst photos and keeping the best.
9 to 5 Mac explains:
“Photo Culling’s AI rates pictures on sharpness, noise, emotion, and whether eyes are closed to decide which to keep and which to suggest deleting. Here’s how Canon describes the new app:
Find your best photos, fast! Using AI technology, Photo Culling will suggest your best photos, help save you time sorting through photos and space on your device so you can continue capturing all of your special moments. Based off of 4 key factors: sharpness, noise, emotion and closed eyes you can now find the photos worth saving and delete the rest. Plus, you are in total control of which photos you would like to keep and which to delete.
The app just supports photos taken from your iPhone’s camera. More features include:
- Similar Culling – group similar photos and find your best ones
- Whole Culling – find your best overall photo
- Unique photo scores – receive personalized photo scores for all of your photos
- Set the parameters – you decide what factors are most important in determining the photo score
- Option to search for photos by date
- Dark mode compatibility
- Delete duplicate, blurry or low-quality photos
- You are in total control – once you receive your processed results the decision is yours if you want to keep the photos or delete
- Shows your total phone storage”
Sounds good to me! Thanks, Canon! Now if you’ll excuse me I’m off to take some more sunset photos.
