Andrew,
The major camera manufacturers think they are in both the hardware and
software business which can be the kiss of death. Apple is one company
that
so far, has done a good job, more or less of this fine balancing act. If
the
camera manufacturers would be content providing good hardware solutions
and
leave the software to those better at building solutions, we'd all be in a
better position.
A PS to my last post! This makes things more interesting - a quote from
Microsoft's FAQ on their PhotoInfo programme and WIC in Vista!
"Because metadata in sidecar files is easily lost if the original file is
moved or renamed, Microsoft is encouraging camera manufacturers to develop
safe ways of writing XMP metadata directly into their file formats (we
expect most RAW Windows codecs to support this). Software programs that use
WIC will gain this feature automatically. Microsoft is encouraging Adobe and
other software developers to follow the camera manufacturers' leads once
these safe methods are defined."
Just what you wanted? Another genuine software firm taking a lead? ;)
