mrs.cos Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Seriously, what the heck are you guys uploading 3TB worth of? Man, I thought my new 64GB Iphone was going to be more than enough. Holy crap. photographer raw files are retarded huge. My 2014 catalog of weddings/family/newborn sessions is 461 gb, and if you do any big processing, the PSD's can be huge as well. I keep clients photos for 5 years personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractor Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 I keep the RAW files on my home server until I feel the client isn't coming back wanting something, typically a year. The full size final images are on my zenfolio site. My astronomy stuff gets very huge. Imagine what happens when you stack the data from 100 25megapixel RAW files into one 32bit data file and begin processing it into a visible image. Actually Trish, Tim you'd be very interested in seeing how the histogram on that file starts way left as just a single line and as you stretch it with curves adjustment you eventually get a full correct looking histogram. There's seriously that much data contained in the shadows in that file. And you can stretch it very far since its 32bit and the final image is only 8 to 16 bit for screen or print.

944s2 Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 I may do this. All the photog groups I belong to are very happy with crash plan Hence why I use it, when we shoot 50-100 gigs at a wedding we need the backup security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
