If you presume that you'll always be using LR, and that the catalog
structure will be able to be read by any future software that you may
end up using, then it's true that you don't need to organize on disk.
I prefer to future proof and organize files on the disk.

Thanks for the feedback folks. I decided not pursue this particular

will arise with the new K5 II and K30 and then buy later ;-)
