Almost every camera manufacturer makes its own photo editing software, but we aren’t super enthused to use any of them — especially if camera features are locked behind them.
We want to once again thank our podcast sponsor, OM SYSTEM, who are bringing you an unbeatable deal today! For outdoor enthusiasts and photographers, size and weight of camera gear often plays a big role. The OM SYSTEM OM-5 not only offers cutting-edge technology and unrivaled performance, but also ensures you have room in your bag for other essentials needed for your adventure. Adventure enthusiasts and photography fans alike can now pair the OM-5 with the M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-150mm F4.0-5.6 II lens for just $699.99. That’s a steal considering the quality and performance you’ll experience with this fully weather-sealed camera and lens combination.

As long as there is no real reason to ever download it and fire it up, it’s actually not a big deal if a camera company’s software doesn’t work great. Photographers are using third-party software like Adobe Lightroom and Capture One a majority of the time and it probably isn’t unusual for them to never feel the need to download first-party software.
That was until companies started locking features behind these programs. For example, Canon Dual Pixel RAW requires the use of Digital Photo Professional and Sony requires photographers fire up Imaging Edge if they want to use Pixel Shift Multi-Shot. Neither of these programs are intuitive to use and, perhaps worse, they are frustratingly slow and prone to crashing.
So, looking at the state of photography in 2024, Chris, Jordan, and I asked ourselves this: how is it acceptable that all these programs are just varying degrees of bad? The three of us dig into it while driving from San Jose to San Francisco in the first-ever PetaPixel Carcast!
