So, back to the previously mentioned iView Media Pro for general image management. And to think I had such high hopes for the new iPhoto. Then I got to thinking ... what did I want from iPhoto? The ability to manage photos and also the ability to create slideshows, etc. Since Media Pro isn't nearly as good at creating slideshows as iPhoto (it's as bad at slideshows as iPhoto is at general image management), the answer soon became clear.
Photos will be managed using Media Pro, thus gaining access to both the ICPT and EXIF info, plus many more management related features. iPhoto will import select photos that are to be shared via slideshows, etc. Not as good as having one tool for dealing with images, but, upon reflection I don't have that today. I use Photoshop to edit, iView to manage, and iPhoto to share: using the best tool for each task.
