Hello Rod, Apple has a booth at Photokina this year, which starts next week. This is a first hence, a big Aperature announcement is expected next week. Lightroom has great potential too, but do bear in mind that it is a Beta product and there is no garrantee that what you create within it will be useable in the final product early next year. Test images only recommended, even by photographers on the official beta testing team. You may also wish to consider long term preservation of your RAW images in an open documented file format such as DNG (Digital Negative Format). This format also has the potential to track all raw adjustments, as a history file stored, along with all cataloguing info within the file itself via Adobe XMP. Lots to consider before they start to pile up too quickly, including a backup process. cheers,
