I had a 2006 version of DPP - cant remember which that was - when I first went digital. I found it really cumbersome to use, and wasnt that happy with the quality of files it generated either. At the time, I went for Capture 1 v3.5, which I found to be much easier to use and more flexible, as well as given better IQ. Lightroom takes a bit of getting used to ( I spent about 4 weeks in front of the computer learning the programme while recovering from a knee ligament repair), but after some initial struggles, I quickly got the hang of it, and it means I can find my images so much more easily without haveing to catalogue them in another application. It gives very good print quality too, so I can go from import, through cataloguing, development and printing in one programme.
