RE: [Digital BW] Image Management Software

I use iMatch (only available on a Windows platform) and am generally
satisfied with it. It's a powerful program and very customizable via a
built-in scripting language, but it is also quite new and very much still
in-the-works. However, the author is open to suggested enhancements and has
lots of things of his own that he wants to add. If you are on a PC, it's
worth a look at the evaluation version at www.photools.com.

Tim,
 I use Cumulus 5.5(the update has just been released from 5.0.1). It\ufffds an
all-encompassing data management system for almost every digital
photographic, video and audio material you can think of at present. It is a
bit hard to master at first and as most of the image database programs do,
requires a fair amount of data input, especially if you plan to do searches
in a large database. The directories can be custom tailored as in the
Windows explorer tree and data (records) can be associated with the assets
(actual pictures, etc.) The newest version allows for better IPTC support
with such programs such as Photoshop 6.0. Also the newer version has a new
feature, which is a palette view mode, and if you\ufffdre on a network improved
support for Server data transfer and a slide show function. I have tried a
few other programs such as U lead Photoexplorer and this program seems to
satisfy my needs particularly when it comes to associated data such as film
type, aperture, lens info shutter speed as well as digital record data such
as white balance, metering mode etc., It also can accommodate copyright
inclusion. It is available on-line @ www.canto.com.
Hope this gives you some idea of this fine program
