Note that this is originally software for linux, but I see they have Windows versions now too.

Not sure how many here use linux, but I have been a bit disappointed with the standard Ubuntu linux offerings in the area. F-spot, and Shotwell are both a bit limited. So, this morning I tried digiKam. Wow! It's got so many features. It also handles Gimp xcf files well. It has a built in photo editor that isn't to bad (though not nearly as good as Gimp) and handles versioning of photos well via this editor. Filing by album, thumbnail viewing, exif data display, fuzzy searching, metadata manipulation, geographic search, timeline, blending stitching, light table, exporting, batch processing...

It also has the ability to handle RAW files much much better than Shotwell, and it can be configured for a great long list of cameras and formats.
How's this for a list of supported RAW cameras...
