I have to agree with Godfrey here. Your "reasons" for disliking it appear to be partly based on inaccurate statements about Lightroom. I use Lightroom entirely with my own hierarchical file organisation. While adding keywords is on my "to do" list, I still haven't got round to it. Despite that, I find Lightroom to be no worse than any other program when it comes to browsing my image folders. And, just occasionally, I find some extra little features (like being able to limit searches by date range and lens type) to be useful. I'm not bothered by the fact that Lightroom has to import/catalog/ whatever any image it works on. And even on my rather underpowered six-year-old notebook (1GB RAM, slowish hard drive) synchronising image folders doesn't take an unreasonable amount of time. For a quick-and-dirty image fix I've got other options. But if I want the benefits of Lightroom I'm prepared to live with that worldview. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
