Adobe Photo Downloader Dock IconI recently updated to the newest version of the Adobe Creative Suite and was pleasantly surprised by some of the great new features to be found in the whole range of Creative Suite CS3 applications.

One of the most impressive that filled a real hole in my digital asset management workflow was the new Adobe Photo Downloader software that comes bundled with Adobe Bridge CS3.

The Adobe Photo Downloader application will for many, solve the issue of how to handle moving photos from camera to computer and keeping things organized. The Photo Downloader will not only pull your photos from the camera, but will also perform several other key functions including the creation of date named folders, rename the files themselves, convert the images to DNG, make a backup copy and apply a meta data template to each file.
