Exactly What I Needed

I have been searching for something like this and was very happy to find it. My Aperture library is loaded with RAW versions of things I should have used a point and shoot to take, and I wasnt sure how to slim the library size without deleting pictures. With RawHide, you select the pictures you want to downgrade, and it will create jpegs and mark the originals as Rejected. Then its up to you to delete the RAWs if you feel good about it.

I did find one thing lacking. It doesnt seem to preserve the camera and lens info, which is useful to me. Maybe this is debatable because the jpeg version wasnt taken with a camera, but rather created with RawHide. I would prefer the camera info remain intact if possible. It does preserve other things though like aperture, ISO, shutter speed, and focal length.

Id recommed this app to anyone who was overly ambitious with their DSLR and shot EVERYTHING in RAW. Its a very easy way to decrease the size of your library.
