New Ricoh GR-II Owner....Some comments and Pictures****

[flipflop]

Hi,

I just purchased a Ricoh GR-II and am really loving it, because of its size it can go everywhere.

I am wondering what your normal work flow is like with this camera. Who is shooting raws vs. Jpegs.

What software are you using to edit the photos. I am running a Mac and only have Iphoto at the moment. On my PC I had photoshop and I fairly comfortable with it in adjusting levels, saturation, exposure and contrast etc.

Any Lightroom users? Is it worth the money?

I basically want to be able to shoot high quality images, have the ability to enlarge them to at least 11X14.

What do I need to this, I have the camera and a nice new 20" Imac. The printer I have is not the greatest but it prints decent. Its a Canon IP1800, if I need to blow something up I will go to a real lab to have them printed.

What else do I need software wise?
Please explain your workflow just trying to make the switch from film to digital.

Sorry for all the questions.

Thanks for the help

Lightroom is well worth the $$$. Download a trial version and check it out.

Agree on Lightroom, although I find for certain things Aperture is better. They're both available on a free trial and can reference the same library, so download them both and give em a whirl.

And delete iPhoto immediately! Have you seen how that abomination stores and manages changes in your photos?!?!
