Digital Asset Management

I never could have imagined that converting my RAW images to DNG (digital negative) and recataloging them could be so time consuming, but when you have literally thousands of them, it takes a very long time.

After thoroughly investigating and testing the .dng format, I have decided to go that way. If you you are thinking about doing this, please read Peter Krogh's The DAM Book: Digital Asset Management for Photographers It is a wealth of information, and raises issues that you may not have thoroughly thought through.
