I am thinking about how to best handle the X3F files from my DP1. I prefer to use SPP because SPP produces the best IQ (in my view easier and better than LR). I then want to import in LR for archiving and for cropping etc.
However my workflow looks rather complicated:
1) copy X3F files from Reader Card to relevant date folders in D:\My pictures and back up these X3F files on extern. HD.
2) PP these X3F files in SPP and save in same folders either as TIFF's 16 bit or as high quality JPEG's (what to choose?).
3) Delete X3F files that have been PP in SPP, from D:\My pictures.
4) Import into Lightroom the date folders containing the photo's in either TIFF or JPEG.
5) pp (cropping etc.) in LR.
Is there a better and easier way of handling the above work?
Thanks for advise!
