I use the date for Lightroom folder names, then use keywords and collections for searching, grouping and categorising. I don't convert to dng.
LR automatically creates folders using the date (not xxx_DDMM, but yyyy-mm-dd), and creates superfolders with just the year automatically (Import parameter=Organize: By date: 2007/2007-18-12). I find it very convenient, and I don't see what advantage xxxPENTX would give you. -- Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Antti-Pekka Virjonen > Sent: 18 December 2007 07:22 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: What folder name on K10D?
