I just returned from a trip in Argentina and Brazil. When shooting while traveling these days I leave the big L Lenses and 5DIII at home and carry the amazing Fuji XT-1 and three small XF Lenses. Anyway, that is another story, but I just returned with seven full 32 GB cards full of images. For reasons I won't get into here, I always shoot JPEG plus RAW (mainly because I like to download selected JPEGs using the wireless Fuji App for emailing winning shots from my tablet on the fly). I have absolutely no interest in importing these thousands of JPEGs to LR. Only the RAWs. The JPEGs are thrash files once I return home. I only work with RAW and if I need a JPEG of any image I have LR for that after developing the RAW the way I want it. I'm not interested in importing the out-of-camera JPEGs into LR. Why in the heck would I want to do that?
Amazingly (and this is a major flaw and is completely unacceptable), LR will not filter out the JPEGs on import. There is no option for that. So I must import all, and then uncheck every other file for thousands of files, or import them all and delete every other file (all th4e JPEGs) after import. Either way, it is a huge pain. I do not want those out of camera JPEGs on my drive! I do not want to see them except for the specific purposes I require outside of LR with my tablet for quick emailing and sharing while traveling with limited Wifi.
This must be fixed by Adobe. I know many pros who have complained of this. They too like to shoot JPEG plus RAW for various reasons, but not because they want to import that JPEG into LR.
I'm sitting here dreading this big import of seven big SD cards because every other file is a JPEG, and I do not want to import them.
This is ridiculous and must be fixed -- so simple to do. A very simple filter quickly written in by Adobe's junior-most programmer or intern. Should take a few minutes. Then I can click on something like "Import RAW Only -- ignore JPEGs on import."
Hello Adobe! Fix immediately please.
