Bird photography creates unusually dense bursts
A bird taking flight, landing, feeding or turning its head can produce dozens of technically similar photographs. The strongest frame may depend on eye sharpness, head direction, wing position, subject separation and timing.
Built around bird-specific review problems
- Small birds occupying only a small part of the frame.
- Flight sequences with rapidly changing wing positions.
- Obstruction from branches, reeds and foliage.
- Multiple birds competing for attention.
- Near-identical RAW files that are slow to compare manually.
Best-of-sequence without surrendering judgment
SelectB groups related frames and recommends stronger candidates, but it does not hide the rest of the sequence. Compare mode lets the photographer inspect alternatives and choose the frame that best matches the intended moment.
From field card to edit queue
The goal is to reduce repetitive review so bird photographers can reach a manageable selection faster, then continue in Lightroom or their preferred editor.
