Gordon,

"Every photo I have is a unique ... most of the photos will be ruined if one setup applied to all of the photos."

Often people think of batch processing images as something that someone selling online would use preparing their product images, & while that is true, it's more common otherwise than many might think. Somewhat higher end apps like Lightroom or ON1 RAW etc. all let you save presets & easily apply those to many photos, whether you're going for a signature look for a series or enhancing photos from a single shoot. That doesn't mean processing has to stop there -- it might just get a lot of stuff efficiently out of the way, so that you can focus just on the individualized tweaks to make a good photo great.

Batch Image Enhancer Pro is more involved, with the ability to set conditions, action sequences etc. in a somewhat script-like format. I'm in the process of scanning thousands of old prints, focusing much more on just getting it done rather than making each one a masterpiece, and for that the more limited Photolemur works well, although I have had to process some badly faded batches separately in a more capable app. Engelmann has a couple of batch processing apps that have more features than Photolemur [though not as many as Batch Image Enhancer Pro], but getting the images through Photolemur is faster, which is why I use it. While many of the filters [actions] in Batch Image Enhancer Pro are gimmicky, it does have roughly a dozen that might work on with those faded photos, so I'm giving it a try, but I don't think it'll cause me to abandon processing RAW photos in Lightroom -> Photoshop.
