Dear D7100 forum members, since upgrading to the D7100 from the D7000 (what a difference, by the way!), Photoshop CS5 no longer recognises the camera's RAW files. So, I know I won't be the first person to ask about my options, but this has led me to a related question: should I consider moving to a new system for editing & storing?
SInce moving over to Macs for our PR and marketing business, several years ago, I have only used iPhoto (yes, I know) for all out digital photos. Since buying Adobe CS5 a few years back iPhoto was used for editing and storing, with Photoshop for more significant edits. But, now that I can't edit the RAW (without using Adobe's DNG application) I am faced with having to upgrade to CS6 but this is an expensive option.
With Apple's new Photos app, now part of OS X 10.10.3 (not yet upgraded), I am concerned that with Photos there is a significant loss of functionality (although a lot of photo magazines have given good reviews). With Aperture now being discontinued this avenue is now closed.
So, I am at the crossroads or intersection and would be very grateful for any thoughts and suggestions.
This is my first post in Nikonites and I am very much looking forward to getting involved here.
Thank you, in advace, for your help. Apologies if I have missed any other similar posts/threads; I am sure I am not the first person to be in this situation.
