I ordered a NEX5N last weekend and am patiently (okay, maybe not so patiently) awaiting its arrival in the mail.
I also recently purchased a copy of Adobe Lightroom to play around with my photos, (which is one of the main reasons I decided to purchase a better camera).
I have heard that the NEX5N raw files are not yet supported by Adobe, and I have a couple questions about that.
Generally, how long after a camera is released before Adobe's software is updated?
and
Is it still worth it to take photos in raw format and use some other software to convert and input them for now, or is the quality of the JPEG output good enough for a master copy? I'm not taking any professional or commercial photos, I just want to be able to archive images of the best quality.
I will be traveling in Europe this winter, and want to take some awesome photos... hopefully I will be able to learn the NEX5N and take advantage of all it has to offer!
