How to use this tool

  1. Enter shots, cull seconds, keeper pct, edit minutes, export seconds.
  2. Use consistent units shown beside each input. Run the calculation and review the assumptions below.

Try this example

{
  "shots": 1200,
  "cull_seconds": 2,
  "keeper_pct": 15,
  "edit_minutes": 3,
  "export_seconds": 4
}

Accuracy and scope

Keeper count is rounded up once. Culling, editing and export times are sequential totals with constant per-image averages; parallel rendering, batch edits and rejected exports are excluded.
