QUESTION: What If I’m Using Photo Management Software?
If you’re using Apple’s iPhoto or Aperture, or Adobe Lightroom (on either a
Windows or Mac machine), then those programs can take care of image trans-
fer for you. As with any other application, you’ll need to specify that you want
those applications to take over image downloading. Consult the documen-
tation for all three programs for more information, and be aware that these
applications all copy your images into their own library systems, so you don’t
need to worry about where the images should be stored. Each program will
take care of putting the files in a location that’s right for them.
Organizing Your Images
No matter which method you use to transfer images to your computer, if you’re
managing your image organization yourself (as opposed to having a program like
iPhoto, Aperture, or Lightroom do it for you), then you will want to think about
how to organize your files.
You’ll be best-served in your organizational chores by making good use of folders.
How to organize these folders is entirely a matter of personal preference—just find
a scheme that makes sense to you. You can create folders by subject—“Arizona
vacation,” “Winter holidays,” “Family reunion”—or by date. You’ll probably find
that some combination of both works best, especially if you find yourself shoot-
ing a lot of similar events. ...
