Photo Mechanic is a photo "browser" designed with speed and ease of use in mind. You can call it a "photo editor" as well. But unlike other photo editing programs that are designed to work with one photo at a time in order to edit its pixels, Photo Mechanic is designed to work with groups of photos together in order to manage them. Professional photo editors who handle lots of photos daily, often under deadline, understand this distinction. Their job involves selecting photos, not selecting pixels.
Features
Photo Mechanic helps you quickly find your best shots. Custom sorting methods are available for your particular workflow. Multithreaded software works in the background to keep ahead of you, so images appear blazingly fast. You can view your originals full screen, compare similar shots side by side, delete the bad shots, tag photos while watching a slide show, and sort your keepers into multiple folders
Import
Photo Mechanic's powerful Ingest utility lets you edit your photos while they are being copied from the memory card. Multiple Ingests allow for editing several jobs at the same time. Read the images from the card, flatten the directory structure, apply IPTC stationery (city, state, photographer's name, copyright, etc.), create a backup on a separate disk and rename your files - all in one step
Edit
You can quickly rotate, preview, copy, delete, tag, watermark, rename, resize, and add IPTC meta-data to photos both individually and in batches. Adjust capture dates and times, change a files resolution, or embed an ICC profile into your JPEGs. Lock previews and pan them around together to compare details efficiently
Annotate
Photo Mechanic makes it easy to add common "IPTC" (or meta-data) information (like city, state, keywords, and caption) to groups of photos at once. Reduce time and improve accuracy when captioning files by using the Code Replacement feature
Output
Create web galleries, print contact sheets, transfer photos to an FTP server or upload them to PhotoShelter, Digital Railroad, and the new PhotoShelter Collection uploader. Send photos to your clients via email, or archive your keepers by burning to CDs or DVDs.
Configure it your way - Put image meta-data to work to customize your results. Do you want to include shutter speed, aperture and caption information with your prints or web page (and sometimes the date and city, but never the time)? Rename files by photographer & state? Sort photos by city or date? Automatically convert the color profile for web photos so they look their best and stay small? Configure your own preferences or stay with the friendly defaults
Additional Features

Display file Exif information.Tag your files during a slideshow presentation.
The Structured Keywords feature uses a hierarchically arranged controlled vocabulary.
Use the Show Map command to plot a photo with embedded GPS coordinates in a window using Google maps.
