Hello,
Maybe interesting read:
http://jcornuz.wordpress.com/2008/08/21/using-linux-for-photography-where-we-stand/"Our" part is here -
-------------------------------
... what I need is:
- display quickly any file type (including RAW)
- thumbnails / image / metadata / folder browsing panes that can be moved
around and hidden
- full exif and XMP tags management / search support
- slideshow / fullscreen
- create contact sheets (I know, this looks like a gadget, but it comes in
very handy)
- right-click on an image to open it in the raw converter / image editor
- Color Managed
What I don't need is:
- Image edition (there are better tools for that)
What I don't want is:
- a program that copies / moves / saves my files by itself
-------------------------------
For me looks like the only thing which 0.10 won't have is contact-sheet
making. Not bad :)
I don't agreed with "Image edition" part - for advanced users maybe but
for beginners, middle advanced simple editing is necessary. Especially
when there is lack of 16-bit capable programs.
I'd like to underscore contact-sheet feature. This is necessary for
archiving and passing photos beyond photographer. This doesn't have to
be very sophisticated. You need to configure params:
- number of columns
- number of rows
- size in pixels (height, width)
- margin between images
- margin top, bottom, left, right
- caption with "entities" (eg. name, name-without-extension, size-in-kB,
size-in-MB, maybe some exif ones)
- font
- background color
