Photon 1.1 Released

Photon, the speedy digital photo workflow app and labor of love from Mike Bernardo's Green Volcano Software, has been updated to v1.1.

Photon differs from Aperture, Photoshop, and the like by focusing on the front end of the photography workflow. Importing RAW images from DSLRs is fast, and Photon's stacking feature simplifies sorting and culling your photos. The update includes:

• An overhauled caching engine to improve import speed and responsiveness

• A "Discards" stack for unwanted image files that provides a direct route to Trash

• A "File stack" feature for moving existing files to a new spot on your hard drive(s)

• Improved memory card download performance

• The ability to save and recall stacks when re-launching the app.

The update is free to registered Photon users, or you can buy Photon for $69 (Universal Binary).

Thanks to Mike B. for the tip!
