Compare photos in the Library module
Lightroom lets you view large previews of one or more photos for tasks like picking out the best photo in a series.
You can view side-by-side previews of two photos at a time in the Compare view, or view tiled previews of two or
more photos in the Survey view.
In the Compare view, one photo is select (active) and the other is the candidate. Using controls in the toolbar, you
can swap the select and candidate designations, zoom in and out of one or both views simultaneously, and specify
when you're done comparing.
In the Survey view, the selected (active) photo has a Selected Photo icon
photos have a Deselect Photo icon
can designate the active photo by clicking any photo (not the icon in the lower-right corner).
Both views provide access to rating stars, color labels, and Pick or Rejected flags for each photo. Both views also let
you deselect photos to narrow down the images under consideration. See "Filtering and rating photos" on page 50.
You can always switch between the Compare and Survey views while comparing photos to focus on only two images
or to get an overview of the photos you're comparing.
