I expect that a lot of people have the same issue that I have. When I'm out on a photoshoot (Birds), I tend to take a lot of photos and quickly discard 90% or more of them. When I'm home on my desktop, this isn't too much of a time consuming issue because I have a pretty powerful setup. But when I'm away and want to sort through the photos on my laptop, this quickly becomes unworkable because the laptop just isn't capable of importing photos into LR in a timely manner. I thought I had found a solution in that the camera (Z6) is capable of shooting RAW + JPEG. I figured that I could use Bridge to sort through the images in JPEG, use some sort of flag to set on the images I like and then let LR just import the ones with flags set. I haven't been able to find a way to do that because Bridge sets stores its flags in a different area of the file and LR doesn't have access during import. I'm wondering if someone else has success in developing a workflow that allows you to pre-screen photos prior to importing?
And another question, is what exactly is LR doing with the JPEGs when it is allowed to import them and keep them together? Ave they used to view 1:1 previews? Are they just taking up space on your harddrive and really of no use because LR creates its own previews anyway? I fail to see the purpose of why you would want to import them anyway.
