[Leica] Adobe Lightroom's Newest Update

[Nathan Wajsman]

I am surprised as well. I did not even know there was such a thing as auto eject, since I never import the raw files off a card. I always copy from the card to a hard drive, and import from there.

Cheers,
Nathan

You can't with the new version of LR because it will not recognize duplicates.  They have also gotten rid of the the automatic ejection of cards.  You have to eject each card manually.  Read on the apology page about what everyone is complaining about.
