It would also be incredibly useful to be able to group photos from the library that are not *quite* duplicates but very identical (think bursts or multiple edits of the same shot) and allow me to find them, pick the ones I want to keep and either delete or mark the others as rejected. In my case, that's hundreds of photos I have to hunt for manually, when the process would be instantaneous if the dupe finder was available outside of the import flow. This exclusively happened to HEIC and JPGs from my iPhone's camera roll so it feels like a bug specific to iOS perhaps.Īll this brings up the very odd choice of not offering the same deduplicate feature available within the import flow *after* the images are already in the library. You can scan the entire catalog, within a selection, or try to find a match just for the selected image/s. If you suspect you have duplicates from a particular day, you can use Lightrooms metadata filter to only show that days photos and skim through the photos. This will open up the Duplicate Finder window.
Then, go to Library > Plug-In Extras > Find Duplicates 2. Highlight the group that you want to search for duplicates in.
Click on the button Find Duplicates and a new progress dialog pops up. Once the plug-in is connected to Lightroom, you might want to search only through some photos. Duplicates will be marked with a special Lightroom flag which indicates them as rejected. Virtual copies of photos will be ignored and this is in most cases the right behavior. I cant remember the last time I ever had to worry about duplicates but recently I imported pictures manually from my camera roll and it clearly has imported hundreds of duplicates (with identical filenames mind you).
#Find duplicate photos in lightroom license#
I can't remember the last time I ever had to worry about duplicates but recently I imported pictures manually from my camera roll and it clearly has imported hundreds of duplicates (with identical filenames mind you). Once the plugin is activated with the license and enabled through the Plug-in Manager, you access its functionality by go to Library > Plug-in Extras > Find Duplicates. This smart folder uses a keyword based rule and will contain all photos with the keyword Duplicate. P: Search for Duplicate Photos after import.
