How to use imagic

The whole workflow, start to finish — import a folder of RAW files and finish with edited JPEGs in a folder.

2 min 18 sec Captions included Real shoot, 118 RAW files

The five steps

imagic works as a pipeline. You move left to right down the sidebar, and each step hands off to the next.

1

Import

Point imagic at a folder. There's no catalogue to build and nothing to sync. Tick scan subdirectories if the shoot is split across cards. JPEG, PNG, TIFF and RAW all work — CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, DNG, ORF, RAF and RW2 included.

2

Analyse

Every photo is scored on sharpness, exposure, detail, noise, composition, faces and whether the subject you focused on is actually sharp. This runs on your machine — your photos are never uploaded.

3

Review & cull

Open Detailed Culling View to see every photo with its score, a keep-or-trash call, and the reasoning behind it. Double-click any row for the full-size view — K keeps, T trashes. Find Duplicates groups near-identical burst frames and picks the sharpest. Nothing is deleted; trashed simply means left out of the edit.

4

Style & edit

Pick an edit style for the whole set, then layer a colour grade on top — every thumbnail previews your own photo rather than a swatch. From there the full slider stack is available, or AI Optimize All gives each photo its own exposure and white balance instead of one preset across the set.

5

Export

Choose your format and quality, then export a single photo or the whole set at once. Finished files land in a folder, ready to deliver.
