I have Canon cameras (R7 and R6ii) so use Canon connect to get the photos off my camera and onto my mobile and then use the Adobe Lightroom mobile version to edit. Due to my photos being in the cloud that means I can access the same Adobe program on my laptop if I have any great photos I want to re-edit and I can work between devices which is what LR Classic doesn’t let me do. But Adobe on my phone is perfectly good for iNat purposes.
I received a Canon GP-E2 for Xmas to geotag my photos. Much easier than linking my phone to my camera with the connection dropping out etc. So now location is in the metadata. But Adobe LR mobile wipes that out during editing (Grrr).
What I am doing now is when I have edited photos in Adobe LR, I share those to iNat (Android) on my phone and then add another photo from the originals which have the location in the metadata and upload all those together. However it doesn’t recognise that the location is there until I get onto the website to the Edit observations page where I can tell it to use the photo metadata and it will update.
Am I missing something really obvious here to get the location right without having to go onto the website? Is there something I can do from the phone app? I want to reduce the number of steps (especially when I take hundreds of photos on a good day out).
. Location data is considered as potentially sensitive, so I presume Adobe is trying to protect the privacy of its users. It could though make things a bit clearer!
