Episode 208: DaVinci Resolve, Lightroom Killer?

from PhotoActive · host Jeff Carlson & Kirk McElhearn

The well regarded video editor DaVinci Resolve just introduced a Photos module inside the app, making some people wonder whether the free software could replace traditional photography tools like Lightroom. We also talk about a book of passport photos, photos that change history and film simulations.
