5 REASONS TO USE PIXELMATOR PRO OVER PHOTOMATOR FOR RAW EDITING

Pixelmator Pro or Photomator? Photomator or Pixelmator Pro? This question boggles the mind and confuses many! In this video we will once again try to clear up the confusion and turn the tables from our last video. This time we will give 5 reasons on why you should use Pixelmator Pro over Photomator for RAW editing.

This video was very helpful because I had recently purchased Pixelmator Pro and then wondered if I had bought the right program (Pixelmator vs. Photomator). You have answered my question about which program is best for me, so I am grateful for the information. I have subscribed, liked and have already watched some of your other videos. Thank you!

Thanks for the sub! Glad it was helpful

Photomator is a bit like Lightroom, Pixelmator Pro is more like Photoshop. That‘s it.

[@takebetterphotos8132]

I agree. I realized though some in the audience aren't familiar with Lightroom/Photoshop as well. :)

[@PLANETWATERMELON]

That’s what it seemed like. Why don’t they just make one app that does both/all the things instead of two apps?

[@Lysander-Spooner]

I have both apps and would like to see a demo of your workflow for using them together.

[@garyolson2676]

I think I could use both. I’m using Photomator now and like it a lot, but you nailed several issues I’ve had in Photomator that Pixelmator addresses. Thanks - it can be confusing.

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Yes I would use pixelmator to perform high pass sharpening on photomator images for crispy clear images. 🙂

[@MikaelREALE-Indeed]

Just watch the two video and decide to stay to my pixelmator pro.
Thanks for your video.

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Good choice! Team needs to add more feature to photomator. I'm sure it's coming!

[@dsouzaangelo]

Thank you, thank you!🍻

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Thanks for watching as well!

[@nikanzare3099]

very conttradicting with the other video!

[@takebetterphotos8132]

True. Something could be bad or good depending on how you look at it.🙂

[@frankvet1]

Thanks so much for your work on this topic. I’m puzzled by the company even has two different products. That have so much overlap. It’s a little ridiculous. As far as I’m concerned. Will not make one product. Do everything.

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Hi there good question! It is true they could have just built up one product Pixelmator Pro. However going forward they want to put more photo management features into Photomator so as to mimic Adobes: Lightroom + Photoshop combo. Also, they want to move one product to subscription (photomator) for revenue reasons as perpetual pricing of Pixelmator Pro is not enough to sustain development costs.

[@xjr1618x]

can you use Pixelmator pro for image stacking and aligning layers?

[@takebetterphotos8132]

It has no stacking and aligning function as far as I know. It lags Affinity Photo in that regard.

[@beatkellermusic]

Also Photomator won‘t let you add text

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Yes true. Any thing which involves layers other than adjustment layers is for Pixelmator Pro.

[@sife9716]

The price is very high compared to Pixel Metor and 5 reasons I don't think it's enough to add a program and I bought Pixel Mitor from my point of view if the price of the program is 20 or 30 dollars I think it's encouraging.

[@takebetterphotos8132]

Pixelmator did say the price is higher to pay for development costs
