You can simply browse your disks and edit from the existing location of the files (or even make use of Zoner’s included cloud storage or your own OneDrive subscription). However, one thing that stands out in comparison to Lightroom (and one thing I love about Capture One sessions) is that you don’t necessarily need to import images into a catalog. The design language is a little inconsistent and tools can be hard to find until you get used to the way things work.Īll of the familiar import and sorting options are available in ZPSX. One thing I did notice about the interface is that it’s not quite as refined as the big players. Those who have used Lightroom or any of the applications that have drawn their influence from its layout will be immediately at home. The moment you open ZPSX, you’ll be greeted with an interface that feels quite familiar. You can catalog, develop, liquify, and layout your images all within one application. Put simply, it is trying to be a jack-of-all-trades replacement for Lightroom, and the basic functionality of Photoshop and InDesign. ZPSX is a raw developer, pixel editor, and basic design application all rolled into one. This won’t be a comprehensive review due to the length of a blog, but I’ll try to touch on each of the elements of the software that I noticed while I have been using it. Also, as a former Lightroom, now Capture One (and occasionally Photoshop) user, I’ll be drawing some comparisons to that software here. Today, we’ll take a look at one of those options, Zoner Photo Studio X.įull disclosure: Until Zoner reached out to me and offered a year-long license to test it out and share my thoughts (no strings attached), I’d never heard of Zoner Photo Studio X, despite it having been around for well over a decade. However, there are plenty of other options out there if you’re not quite satisfied with the current status quo. Chances are, if you ask 100 photographers what they use to catalog and process their images, the Lightroom/Photoshop combo and Capture One will be the majority of people’s answers.
