Express Digital Darkroom

Pros: A complete package for the professional or advanced amateur photographer.
Cons: It is costly.

Digital photography is here to stay, not only for the occasional snapshot taker but for the professional photographer as well. As for me, I am delighted to be rid of darkrooms, chemicals and cumbersome enlargers. In the past, digital photographic ...

Pros: Enables photographer to set up photography events, shoot subjects, and place orders.
Cons: Software is very buggy and is prone to losing data.

If at all possible, find an alternative to this software. It's horrible. Here are my list of grievances:  > When Express Digital releases an update, they don't tell you everything it fixes or changes. More often than not, updates fix one ...

Pros: Good program to load photos from camera, select print packages, and print. Organizes events well.
Cons: cost
cost of support
cost of updates

This is a pretty good bit of software and I would recommend it at $300-$500 range, unfortunately it cost $1300. But wailt there is more! After you get over that heavy hit, the second hammer falls. Tech support is a yearly contract that will set you back another $500/year. A single phone call is $50.
This is one very proud (or arrogant) company. They also are very slow to support new hardware (cameras, printers etc.) and want you to pay for a software upgrade every time they do add hardware support. I can do almost all the same functions out of Lightroom, so I am thinking about selling my Darkroom editions. Wanna buy one?
