This software is designed to download photos easily from various sources. It allows users to easily store and view their favorite images, making it an essential tool for managing and organizing photo collections.
Rapid Photo Downloader is a versatile photo downloading software designed for both professional and amateur photographers. It comes under the GNU GPL license and is meant for use on the GNOME 2 Desktop. One of its most useful features is the ability to download photos from multiple memory cards and Portable Storage Devices at the same time. With several options for sub-folder creation, image renaming, and backup, the software can generate meaningful file and folder names.
As camera-generated file names are generally esoteric, Rapid Photo Downloader uses image metadata to rename files and create download folders. The software is easy to use and there is no need to enter any complicated codes. Whether you regularly take thousands of photos a session or your needs are more modest, the software can download huge numbers of images with minimum fuss. You can download photos from multiple memory card readers in parallel, by simply plugging in as many as you need, and the software will automatically detect and download from them.
An important feature of Rapid Photo Downloader is its ability to back up images as they are downloaded. The software can back up to multiple backup devices such as external hard drives, and can also be configured to automatically recognize backup devices when they are inserted.
Installation of the software is fairly easy. One needs to install the required GNOME packages from their Linux distribution's package repositories, install pyexiv2, and then install the application from the tarball. The software can then be started by running ‘rapid-photo-downloader’ from the command line.
Developers are always welcome to contribute to the success of the project by submitting feature suggestions, bug reports, code, translations, artwork, and documentation. Overall, Rapid Photo Downloader is a feature-rich and user-friendly software suited for both professional and amateur photography enthusiasts.
