Let me remind you, and then I will give you a step-by-step break down. From ews.com I hope you are comparing a similar process workflow, not just the time the merge/pano stitching took. If so I will retime for just that portion of the test. Just to be clear. that was for the whole task, which included selecting the three RAW files from my desktop hard drive, loading them to the iCloud Drive, opening Affinity Photo on the iPad, selecting the three RAF files from the iCloud folder for pano stitching, and completing the crop. The actual merge/pano stitch was probably in the region of 5-8 seconds. Now to explain step-by-step: On my Mac, not the iPad, Lightroom was not running, so; Step #1: Open Lightroom: 27.58 seconds Step #2: In LR Library navigate to 2016-12-15 folder: 45.83 sec. Step # 3: Select the 3 RAF files and export to iCloud: 1 minute 1.96 sec. Step #4: Complete upload to iCloud: 1 min 13.41 sec Step #5: Open Affinity Photo on iPad & Choose “New Panorama”: 1 min 24.66 sec Step #6: Select 3 RAF files from iCloud folder on iPad: 1 min 30.56 sec Step #7: Start and finish Stitch: 1 min 36.50 sec (so the actual stich time was 5.96 sec) Step #8: Complete crop: This time 1 min 40.67 total elapsed time. There are all sorts of things I could have done to come up with a faster result, but I didn’t. Now that isn’t too bad given that was all that was done. You didn’t mention if you had done a crop, or not, or were just left with the rough pano. ...and as I said, producing panoramas is not where the bulk of my travel photography lies. How did you measure time to 1/100 sec? Well I probably should have included reaction time between my brain and my forefinger stopping and starting the stopwatch on my iPhone which displays 1/100 sec. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Davoud:
Stop me if you've heard this one... Alan Browne: What I do not support is rental s/w. That's Adobe's new path. If I were a full time photographer, then I'd go for it. But "renting" spinning s/w that I don't use for stretches is a stretch. I never grasped why persons who lease houses and automobiles, who pay for utilities by the month, who belong to membership clubs, who subscribe to newspapers or magazines... would draw the line at subscribing to world-class software. That one doesn't need it is an incontestable reason, however. Here's the thing, though: there is no minimum subscription period for Adobe CC, including the $10 photography plan. A friend, an accomplished photographer, activates his photography plan for about two months each year after big photo safaris. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

Well mine would probably be as fast opening if I was using an SSD rather than spinning rust. actually, it would be much faster on a new imac, probably 1-2 seconds to launch, because the ssd in the latest imacs are not bottlenecked by sata, as it is on the mac i used to test that. |

I never grasped why persons who lease houses and automobiles, who pay for utilities by the month, who belong to membership clubs, who subscribe to newspapers or magazines... would draw the line at subscribing to world-class software. because until recently, software was not subscription based and people hate change, even though the change means the software is likely cheaper (and better). they're also often grossly misinformed about how it works, mistakenly thinking that once payments stop, all documents ever created suddenly vanish, never to be seen again, or that there must always be a high speed broadband connection at all times. That one doesn't need it is an incontestable reason, however. Here's the thing, though: there is no minimum subscription period for Adobe CC, including the $10 photography plan. A friend, an accomplished photographer, activates his photography plan for about two months each year after big photo safaris. in other words, he can use photoshop and lightroom for just $20 per year, something which previously would have cost around $800 every 18-24 months if he bought them outright. that's a rather substantial savings. |
