As said, James, you get DNGs, when shooting tethered or downloading from your internal memory or from a CF card.
- renaming on the fly: yes, is instant on 24 images (just tried it), and probably the same for 2'000. Just select the files in the contact sheet to be renamed and type the new name in a window, then click "OK"
- background process: one can create, save, load, copy or paste parameters (input profile, working space, rotation, white balance, exposure, contrast, curve, saturation, colour temperature/tint, crop, USM, etc ...) and apply them to as many files as wished, by selecting the files in the contact sheet on which these parameters should be applied.
Those saved parameters can be managed separately and be assigned.
- From there one can export as TIF (or JPG) and the export takes 22.3 sec/file on a MacPro 2 x 2,66GHz, 4GB RAM, OS 10.4.11 and 25.6 sec/file on y MacBookPro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 GB Ram and OSX 10.5.3 (my setup). When taking over to a DNG application, there is no need to export since the DNGs are already there (in the folder of your choice), and the parameters are taken over.
Best regards,

Still, how long does it take to process 2,000 sinar files in your new software, can you rename on the fly, background process, move files to other drives by drag and drop.
