Image file size

IAA
Hi,

I'm probably overlooking this, but I can't seem to find in metadata, file Size! I'm keen to know file size of variants, often with crops. Is there a way to do this.

Sorry in advance if it's a stupid question, but it's nowhere obvious to me or easily queried in the help info.

    A process recipe will offer an estimate according to the settings applied.

    Very rough estimate !! I think Phase One should improve this, as it is very useful for publishing on web sites.... or forums. It shouldn't be so difficult.
    As far as I am concerned, I try 2 or 3 times by successive approximations using different jpeg compressions, for instance, after having got a more reliable size using Photoshop, Affinity Photo, or even Apple's Preview.

    I have been using the trial and error option too, and it is a pain when you're trying to get images to a required file size. Although I'm no fan of Apple photos I appreciated the file size in mb as part of image info....

    PhotoMechanic is able to do that.

    Plenty of softwares do that accurately, such as PhotoMill, Photoshop, Affinity Photo, and even Apple's Preview..... except Capture One 😄
