Compare View for Photo Review

Choosing the best image often requires seeing two candidates together. Pix42 includes a compare workflow for side-by-side inspection, synchronized navigation, ratings, flags, and culling decisions without leaving the viewer.

Make close decisions with visual context

Burst frames, similar compositions, alternate edits, and duplicate candidates are hard to judge in a single-image preview. Pix42 compare view keeps two images visible together and supports locked zoom and pan so details can be inspected at the same scale.

Compare tools sit close to the rest of the review workflow: star ratings, pick and reject flags, favorites, metadata, filters, duplicate review, and assisted culling. That makes it practical to decide which file stays, which one needs attention, and which one can be rejected.

Designed for decisions, not just preview

A good compare view should reduce switching. Pix42 keeps comparison inside the same folder-first workflow used for browsing, filtering, duplicate detection, and batch follow-up tasks.

Compare view works alongside Pix42 photo culling, duplicate finder, persistent ratings, metadata tools, and fast folder browsing.
