It's not that much or problem if you think about it, keeping old software going is but DNG however old should be able to be read with later software (so long as they adhere to the spec).My TIFF files scanned 2-+ years ago still read fine and they have migrated along with all my other archival data. I think the key is to pick the most universal formats and to ensure that if those formats fall out of favor to migrate that data to the newer formats. It doesn't matter whether data is physical or digital it still needs to be maintained one way or another, even if that maintenance is making sure that the shoe-box doesn't get wet and moldy. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- 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.
