An excellent article. I currently have NEF's from as far back as the Nikon D70 and currently shoot RAW only. With that in mind, you pose excellent questions. I currently make extensive use of Nikon's ADL (Active D-Lighting) technology and only Nikon software can produce an accurate TIFF/JPEG from a RAW file that includes ADL. Until ADL can be supported by DNG....then TIFF is the only real option. My plan is then to watch and as soon as D70 NEF's aren't supported...batch convert to TIFF for archive or whatever might be a better option. In the future, I honestly think it will be easier to convert my NEF's to something useful than it has been getting my super 8mm film converted to Blu-Ray. Can be done but expensive and a big pain :)
InTheMist: Disable quoted images! Replace with a link instead.
Have to respectfully disagree. I think the person quoting should have the option of showing them if it helps convey intent.
Very exciting. Feels like being part of something. Looks like serious thought and time went into it. I like that the character the makes these forum different will seemingly still be a part of it. Obviously will evolve some growing pains. I like that the users have a bit more influence with the like buttons and such.
I would simply second that understanding who is replying to who is critical and that community moderation will need moderation to maintain good balance. You guys seem to have thought hard on this. Good Luck...this should be fun.
