IS there anyway in Adobe Bridge to sort photos by exposure (darkest picture to lightest picture in a folder) I do some volunteer shooting for a local theater and it sure would would help the batching of Raw conversion ...search the web and found nothing useful
Thanks

Dooh , I suppose sort by size would do about the same

I would think you'd have to manually assign a tag to each photo based on subjective assessment. 1/125 sec @ f8 may be be perfectly exposed on one image while severely underexposed on the next.

Maybe use the color tags in Bridge?...

How would the program know the difference between an underexposed photo and one that was taken at night?

Don't think it's possible.

Yeah, I think this is the way to go...or star system. You can run through and assign a rating to each photo in a batch pretty quickly using short cut keys.

I don't have a clue, but it is an interesting question. The filesize would be a decent place to start, as long as you are shooting/viewing JEPGS, but obviously there's a lot of variables involved. Sort by histogram would be nice if they had it, but thats subjective too.

The suggested rating system would be too slow...

Can you take my picture on some railroad tracks?! No, that's illegal now. I'm really sorry.

At the last two PS User Group Sessions in San Jose, I've asked for them to add this sort specifically by exposure) to Bridge's sort routine. It would be a significant help (at least to me) when reviewing a string of shots (for HDR, for example) into a "bracketed set." I plan to bring this up again to Russell Brown at the meeting.

Kicking off 2011, the one and only Russell Brown will be our speaker. Russell is the Emmy Award-winning instructor, and Senior Creative Director at Adobe Systems Incorporated. Always delighting in testing the creative limits of his tools, he is the prolific creator of an entertaining collection of Photoshop tips and tricks. His double treat of great information presented in a bold, zany style has won him a regular following among beginning, intermediate and advanced users alike. Dr. Brown will cover the following topics at our meeting:

Using your iPad, iPhone or Galaxy Tab as a Photography Portfolio.
In the first part of the evening, Russell will spotlight an collection of useful tips for publishing your photo portfolio to your favorite portable devices. Learn some techniques for exporting images from Photoshop CS5 as an album without having to navigate through iPhoto. Also discover the wonders of PDF export from Adobe Bridge CS5 and see how to publish your own portfolio books to share with others.

Create Natural Toned HDR Images, and the Wonders of Camera RAW & Smart Objects.
OK, we have seen the classic over-saturated, and super-sharpened HDR photos, but now it's time to move to the next level of HDR imaging. Russell will discuss some of his favorite new methods for a new, more gentle and realistic looking HDR toning. This process may have you revisiting some of your earlier HDR shots and processing them again. All these techniques will be done using HDR Pro in Photoshop CS5. Also covered in this part of the evening will be Dr. Brown's Photoshop tips for working with Camera RAW images in combination with Smart Objects. Learn the true art of Photoshop creativity with these nondestructive techniques.

FYI, for those who can't make it to the meeting, it will be recorded, and we'll let you know the link.

We'll have pizza and drinks at 6:30, and the meeting will start at 7:00, in the Park Conference Room of Adobe Systems' East Tower, 321 Park Avenue, San Jose.

Sort by exposure or exposure settings? Quite a big difference.
