i am using this jpeg recompressor: https://github.com/danielgtaylor/jpeg-archive https://github.com/danielgtaylor/jpeg-archive Tried a lot of combinations of quality, and settled for -q medium --max 75% --accurate Anything higher makes no sense/difference, even if you print it at A3. And my images are 8-18-24Mpix. i'm not a pro-foto but somewhat of an old pre-print school - Your level of pickiness may vary :/ Effectively it is like 4-8 times down - Total went from 150Gb into 30Gb - that's about 40,000 images. Which still doesn't solve the OP's or anyone's problem of too-easy-producible digital "assets".. but is more manageable.
