> What I usually do is create one or more CD's per topic (shooting > session or theme) with 3 dirs: RAW, JPG & THUMBS. I shoot in RAW + > Small JPG Fine and I use the Canon SW to extract the embedded jpg to > the JPG directory. The THUMBS dir contains the .THM files renamed to > JPG. Hi Gerard, My workflow these days is as follows: - Extract the files from the camera with Canon's File Viewer in a RAW directory - Delete the *.thm files - Use Capture One to filter out the bad shots - Use ThumbPlus to mass-rename the files for archival purposes - Use Capture One's "Export previews" function to extract the JPG's to a Preview directory (using the same filenames) - Burn those 2 directories on a CD - Use ThumbsPlus to scan the Preview directory. - From ThumbsPlus I can always find the picture (and CD) I'm need, look at the preview, and then use Capture One to develop the corresponding CRW file. The beauty of Capture One is that it remembers the settings per file, so you don't need to keep the developed TIFF once you're done with it (saves a lot at 18Mb per TIFF). So in a way, I just use the (small, low q.) JPG's as thumbnails. It may seem like a lot of work, but it actually works really well and fast. No idea on the programming part, but I hope I've given you an idea or two :-) Bye, Marc ----------------------------------- CrystalVisions Photography, Bonaire www.VisionsOfBonaire.com * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
