Ingest can automate tasks involved in getting your images from a source to the correct destination for your workflow, such as: renaming your images, adding metadata, creating folders, and keeping track of which images have already been copied.

If you are experiencing problems with operations such as Save As with large images then try to avoid zooming to 100%, and also try reducing the size of your memory cache preference (having a large memory cache can exacerbate low memory problems).
This was mostly an issue on Windows because of its reduced application memory compared to Mac OS X. greater than 25 megapixels) to alleviate problems with 100% previews. * Added memory cache recovery for better handling of large images (e.g. * Added support for RAW ORF files from the Olympus E-P元 and E-PM1. * Improved support for the Canon EOS 1DX and EOS 5D Mark III, including a problem with Ingest not tagging Locked photos (in the camera). not guaranteed to be there even if camera is writing Exif 2.3).
