Re: Archiving & image management programs

2005-12-24 by ferdinand_paris

I use Imatch from www.photools.com

It has its quirks, but the hidden power is unbelievable.  You can do a
heck of a lot with this program, if you just dig a little.  If you're
prepared to jump into its scripting language, you can do literally
almost anything.

There is a "next generation" version coming, but we've been waiting
for it for quite a while.  In the meantime the next service revision,
awaiting the Nikon D200 SDK, has some major functionality upgrades.

FWIW, there is a listing and comparison of such software here:

I'm not sure how up-to-date this page is.
