| I took, I dont know.. 600 images the other day, is there a way to process them with the same settings. Lighting is basically the same, I know I will have to go back and do tweaks on each later, but a quick way to fix most of them would be great. Anyone? :) |

What program(s)are you using? If you are using Adobe Lightroom or Adobe Camera RAW you can create a preset that stores all your adjustments and you can apply that to any photo you want either in large groups or individually. In LR you can also do edits on one image and then with that photo selected first...continue to select of photos of the same subject manner, lighting situation etc. and use the sync button which applies the settings of the current image display to all the others ones in the group you selected. Also, in the library view of LR you can also do that in the library view.
In Photoshop you can create and action that records your editing steps of a single photo and then run that action of multiple files by using the automated batch command.

| You can even run Batch actions using a simple program like IrfanView -- I find it a lot simpler to set up the batch options there than creating an Action to run in Photoshop, though with somewhat less control available. |

Well I have all those main programs as well. I love ACDSee Pro for viewing my images and a few other things, but I never edit it with it since I have much better programs to do so with.
In Lightroom, once you make your corrections to your photos click on the plus (+) sign over on the presets panel (left side of screen) while in the develop module and you will be prompted to assign a name to your new preset and what edit options to include. You might as well select all and click save. Then anytime you open and individual image you can click on that preset and it will adjust everything to your settings. As I said earlier you can also select multiple images and apply the preset to them all at once.
For actions in Photoshop there are some good tutorials on the web so in order to save time in typing those myself here (since I'm starving and it's dinner time :) I recommend searching for photoshop actions tutorial and you'll find some good ones. It's pretty easy so don't get scared off. :)

| I Lightroom, it is dead simple. Make all your adjustments on one image, click on the "Copy" button, select the settings to copy. Now select the images to be pasted to and paste the settings. Done. |
