There is a slider in the bottom right-hand corner of the application which will give you a zoom level, so if you need to see a bigger version or a smaller version it is easy to do so. It is possible to go through these groupings one by one and two double click on a photo in order to toggle the marked status. The photos that are to be kept are marked with a green label and the ones that are marked for removal have a red one. If you go for the auto-marking of the photos then you can look more closely at the results and make specific choices to remove the marker or to add a marker to the duplicates that are laid out in groups. It would be handy if in a future version of this application there was a setting that allowed you to do a better sorting of bracketed photos in the setup. For some reason or other PhotoSweeper seemed to prefer the photo that was underexposed by two stops. I did find that when looking at photos that I had taken with a bracketed exposures that the application didn’t choose the properly exposed photo of the three. It is quite amazing how fast the application does the job of looking through the photos and when it has scanned them it will ask you if you want it to auto-mark the ones that it thinks are duplicates or similar. When you have set up the search that you want to do, all you have to do is to click on the Compare button at the bottom of the screen. You might choose to use a time interval of ten seconds or less, three minutes and less and then you might want to go the whole hog for twenty-four hours or less. You can also set the time interval that it should use for deciding if these might be duplicates by moving a slider to the left to get a longer time period and the other way for shorter.

One of the most useful settings would be to use time plus bitmap and this will look at the timestamp on the photo and then it will look through the actual bitmap of the image to find similarities. This can be as simple as photos that are exact duplicates or you can use settings to find photos that are just similar. On the set up page you get to choose how you want the application to look for duplicates. I also dragged in a folder directly from Finder into the main window of the application and that was no problem at all. I first of all dragged in an Aperture project from the media browser and I found that it worked just as well with bringing in an album that was part of a project. Generally you work with the application on a folder, project or album level, getting started by dragging the container you are working with into the main window of the application. Working with the settings in PhotoSweeper It is possible to drag and drop the Aperture library into this media browser and there is also a plus button that can be clicked to let you go finding the library in Finder. I used this with my Aperture library and the first thing that I had to do was to use the media browser to add the library to this application. It only takes a minute to read through it, because the application is actually quite easy to use. When you first open it up there is a small six panel set of getting started help information. This PhotoSweeper application will also do what needs to be done in this situation also. Or you might be using one of the photo management applications like Lightroom, Aperture or iPhoto. These duplicates can be found by looking in specific folders, you just drag and drop the folder into the application and tell it to have a look. I have been having a look at an application called PhotoSweeper which gives you some extra tools for finding duplicates. There could be other reasons why you end up with multiple images even down to the possibility that maybe you copy them over twice by mistake.

Maybe you do like I do, where you take bracketed shots so that you can do HDR photos and when you have finished using Photomatix Pro to create your high dynamic range image you just want to get rid of the photos you used to do that. It could be that you are using the setting on the camera to take multiple shots in order to help you catch the action. These days with the facilities that we have with our super duper cameras we can quite quickly fill up hard drives upon hard drives with our photographs.
