I don't like where Lightroom puts the imports, so on the Mac I use Image Capture to copy the raw pix of the camera into the place I want them. I assume there must be something equivalent on Windows. Then I get Lightroom to import them in-place.
As to how you organize your pictures into folders, that's something that's shockingly personal and shouldn't be brought up at all, or it'll develop into a 300-message PDML thread. -T On Sun, Mar 13, 2011 at 9:44 AM, Eric Weir <eew...@bellsouth.net> wrote: > > I think I've asked this question before, but can't find the responses.
