Wondering what tools people are using to catalog their medium and large format scans?
Have tried Lightroom 2 and it doesn't like files over 250MB. Most of my scans from 120 (6x7) are in 350-400MB. I haven't tried Aperture yet. What options exist for a Mac user?
I also thought of possibly archiving the full size scan and then creating a smaller version for importing into Lightroom or Aperture.....is this a better solution?

Expressions Media works fine with big files - I use it for my digital files and all my scanned trannies (which end up as 275mb files).
Your idea of using smaller proxies is a good one too.
