Applying a built-in Style automatically?
Use the Legacy style, Landscape - Color 2, over 96%. Would speed up workflow, if when a folder containing raw files, is opened for the first, this style is applied to every raw image.

Easily done if using the Import facility.
Or simply open the folder (if using a session but not importing), select all of the RAW images, make sure "Edit all selected variants" is active and apply the Style.
I'm assuming you are using the Pro version.

Yes I'm using the Sony Pro version, for my Sony a6300. But for my Nikon D7100 use a different pp app, and it automatically a style that I defined as the default.
If I read your reply, correctly, I still have the select the style every time. Think of the Windows OS. You can designate certain applications to run at startup ... I know that I always want this program running (e.g. MS Outlook), so why should have to click on it? Start it for me.0 -

If you use the Import tool in the "Adjustments" section you can specify if and how you wish to apply presets and styles and which or them to apply.
Once something is set it will remains set for use on Import until you remove it. Both C1 supplied styles and User styles can be applied automatically on import.
HTH.

😉 Thanks Grant!
Import, is bigger hassle this way (created a staging folder, which I designated as the SELECTS folder, and then import from my designation), but it's still less effort than applying the styles.0 -

Not sure I would do the import that that way with a staging folder.
Where do the Sony files start their journey to C1?
Are they already on disk rather than memory card? (I am assuming you are not tethered when shooting...)
If you don't need to rename the files at all (though I find it wise to do so to avoid any possibility of accidental confusing duplication of camera allocated file names) and you may not be using a catalogue, then importing is not entirely necessary and you can apply the style simply by selecting all of the images you wish to apply it to, making sure you have "edit all variants" active and then apply the style.
Now I would not necessarily see that as the end of things that are worth considering to maximise what I would see as the benefits of C1 BUT you may not think of the benefits in the same way. However it's probably worth discussing them if nly to get a broader feel for the flexibility that C1 can offer.

Hi Grant,
Need we need to step back. This is my C1 workflow, prior to your help:
[list=]
Create an 8-digit folder name (yyyymmdd) on my m2 SSD drive
Copy today's .ARW files to the m2 SSD drive
Launch C1 & select the folder w. the new .ARW files
Apply the Landscape 2 style
For each composition (almost always have more than 1 photo), evaluate to see if --> 1) Garbage & needs to be deleted, 2) Can be tweaked w. small edits (e.g. cropping, white balance, different style, etc., etc.), or 3) Good as is
Export to .JPG
Evaluate .JPG, similar to step #5
Copy keepers to the hard drive
[/list]
You idea of using the Import to apply a favored style, affected steps 2-4.

Niels,
You could use the Import tool to perform steps 1 to 4 (also copy the source files to a backup location should you wish to do so AND name the files on import.)
Your assessment process would remain the same but there are a few tools that you might find useful. Choices and preferences are a personal thing at that point so I'll leave that to you.
I'm not sure you need to export to jpg although there is no harm in doing so other than using disc space.
The 'Proof' options (Especially Recipe Proofing) in C1 likely mean that you can check what things will look like without necessarily producing a jpg.
Indeed there are the questions about what size of image you are going to output and whether it is for some sort of screen to display (in which case what capabilities will the screen possess for colour accuracy and resolution) or printing (in which case the medium on which the image will be printed matters as does the size of the print.)
I would use the Process Output option in preference to Export simply because it offers additional controls at the time of processing.
Your final step could be considered as either "Save Keepers" or "Delete Rejects" (or both!). No problem with either but the optimal action could be dependent on where get to with the workflow outlined above.
The whole process can be aligned to the Session workflow with ease.
HTH.

Will keep that in mind, Grant.[quote="SFA" wrote:

Wording, and my fault. My other app 'Exports' to perform raw conversion, but it's the same thing as C1's 'Process'.
HTH.
