HI,
For a long time now, I have been using Aperture to manage my photos. However, as they are mostly all shot in RAW, I am clearly at the mercies of Apple’s RAW camera updates. I had to wait a few weeks for my Canon to be supported last year, but my recent camera purchase looks like it has been passed over again with 10.5.7 (which I have yet to install). It’s a Leica D-Lux 4, and I guess there is an outside chance that the Leica M8.2 format may be what’s needed, but I am doubtful despite the shared pedigree. The D-Lux 4 has been around since last year. If Apple were going to support it, I expect that they would have by now.

So, I am thinking about moving to Adobe’s Lightroom, which does support this camera, and I will be wanting to move my Aperture library and (hopefully) the edits I have made. Naturally, I will be wanting to move the RAW files masters along with any subsidiary Photoshop Masters I have created along the way.

Is this something anyone else here has attempted? I ask on the off chance that there are people here who have made the move.
