Organising and deleting images
Hello,
I am fairly new to Capture One and have a question, regarding Capture One Pro workflow.
In Aperture, when deleting a file from the projects menu, it moves the image file to the trash and i can empty that one later one.
In Lightroom, i can flag an image as "rejected" in my collections folder (album in Capture One) and then later one choose delete rejected photos.
This might be my limited knowledge of Capture One, but what i can figure out so far, i have to select and choose all my files directly after import in COP, before i move them into an album.
Because otherwise i will have to select them for deletion twice? One time in my album and then afterwards in the catalog folder? - Which would be rather tedious when working on hundreds of images.
Unless i off course select them in the catalog folder, directly after import.
Is this right, or is there an other way of doing this? - perhaps a suggested way 😉
Also is there a way to make an smart album for "album deleted images", so they do not become ghosts in the catalog?
In lightroom i can make a smart collection (smart album) which selects all the rejected images. Works sort of like a trashcan.
Kind regards....

What I do is assign a red label to rejects, then in the folder in the catalog I filter them by colour tag. Once only the files labeled with red are displayed, I select them all and delete them. Note that I delete them for good, I don't keep them in a limbo folder in case I have second thoughts.
Note also that, at least in Windows, Alt-Del will bypass the Recycling Bin and delete them off the HDD outright, unlike Lightroom that sends them to the bin for the user to delete/recover them manually later.0 -
Excellent, thank you.
I thought of something like that. But just wanted to hear if anybody, did anything different!
Thanks again!0
