I have 41k photos in my Lightroom catalog, I’ve checked it out.

That doesn’t work when I want to use Capture One, Lightroom does not apply Phase One calibration profiles which makes it useless for them, or my own raw processor for Sinar digital backs.

Recommending the most common digital photo DAM/editor is not really a helpful comment either. The number of people who know what exif is and don’t know about Lightroom has to be…small.
