Thanks for such a thorough and informative video! Your advice really helped me determine which service is best suited for my needs.
Wow great video! I've seen a lot to make this decision and you made the journey clearest and best. Thank you!
Exactly the sort of laying out of facts that I was looking for. Thank you very much for all the research.
Great info! Thanks so much!
Informative, neat, well-explained.
a Great, helpful, unbiased comparison. Thank you, Sir.
Such a useful video, the use of the app logos made scrubbing through the vid (I'm only interested in LR) really easy, thx!
Comparativa con información precisa y clara. Gracias
Thanks for the video.
It's always worth checking how hard it is to move to another software before investing your time into it. I found for LR you can't export all albums at once and create corresponding folders. This would make it very laborious to transfer to another software if you have many albums.
Just checked Google photos, you can export all albums in one go using Google Takeout. I think for Apple photos you can do it also.
Separate note: on my mac, Apple photos stores all photos by date as does Lightroom (on yours you found there to be no ordered structure?)
great video
Hi, thx for you helpful comparism. I like to point out some additional dealbreaker for Lr CC.
I used Lr Standalone for many of year fairly until now with the old version, as I didn‘t like to go with a monthly plan. New camera and OS forced me to look for something new.
So I found a more cheep option with prepaid card and thought Lr CC with storage plan doesn‘t look that bad.
But after I have realized what Adobe calls Lr CC has nothing to do with LrC(lassic) at all. Politely saying it gives you the wrong impression.
Starting with one of your points is, Lr CC does not offer Photobook Integration which LrC does.
But for me the dealbreaker was the missing MAP feature. There is not Geotag feature inside neither adding tags nor viewing them on a map (which fairly would be ok at a first stage).
So everybody doing travel photography would be supprised (as me).
Finally you Adobe has stripped down Lr CC to just very basic organising and editing and it has NOTHING to do with what has been known as Lightroom. Photoshop ELEMENTS Cloud would be a far better naming.
really appreciate your videos, you helped me so much in getting the right photo books. I think one thing you should have touched more on is the Live Photos in Apple, its making me hard to switch to other providers cause I cant find anything else that supports it.
Google Photo's does a really good job at supporting them IF you import them from the IOS app .. There will be a little play icon next to them give it a shot!
I have multiple iPhoto libraries that I backed up on hard drive also old dv cam tape recordings to HD from 1990 how should I organise and tag I am entirely apple ecosystem
Nice channel need to learn from here
Google is not unlimited anymore starting June next year. :(
What is your suggestion for those of us who still use a 35mm as well as an Android phone to shoot photos and videos. Currently use Google but want the ability to edit also. I travel the world many times on Cruise ships so I have time to edit and also write while at sea
Thank you in advance for your informative review.

16:26 I am using the Google Photos free plan but I don‘r think that picture taken reaches not even 10GB. They are taken from a a mobile Samsung Galaxy J1 Prime. And the pics are taken straight to JPG. What I notices is that when you share a HQ pic through the messenger of Facebook, it automatically downgrade the size and quality of course.
The best comparison on YT, thank you! I am torn: I predominantly use Apple products, but sometimes like to be on Android plus sharing is better on Google (why does Apple need to create those “mirror” albums in lower quality for sharing?). But Apple has the ability to work with files physically on the Mac, plus the app is native and fluid, Google really lacks an actual app and not web app for desktop. I am also a photographer so I use Lightroom CC, but it does not have all that AI trickery. All in all I use all three (only Lightroom is a bit costly, but that’s for the job anyway), but if Apple simplified sharing I might ditch Google, who knows.
I like the ease of access, viewing, organizing and sharing from Google Photos, but the simple act of uploading old photos and then finding it or seeing all the albums I have so I can save the photo is impossible. It's gi ing me trauma. Help.
14:00 you mention 3 extensions for apple photos to be able to print easily… what were they?
Mineo, Motif and Presto
For me LR is not worth the money. I am using Apple Photos and for more sophisticated editing Affinity Photo.
As long as Adobe is just RENTING out their softwares, it is NO option at all. I want to make sure I can handle my pictures at any time, even if a particular company goes broke or they terminate their services.
The screen behind you is distracting. My brain had a hard time paying attention and actually watching you speak
Your assumption is wrong. I have over 30,000 photos taken since late 1990s. I have never edited a photo even once. Why would you want to edit it anyway? Keep as it is intended, natural. However, management is important.
Opinions differ. You can keep your photos natural but 99.99% of all photos published are edited. Usually the better camera you have the more you edit. You can not use RAW files without editing, you can even open them and most photographers use RAW files.
@@PhotoBookGuru Fair enough. I don't publish them to anywhere. Just for internal use. Great video btw. Only one on youtube compares this in depth.
