Description
Digital photo management program designed to import, organize, enhance, search and export your digital images to and from your computer.

Some of the new features in this release of digiKam include (compared to digiKam 0.9.4):
Designed from the ground-up for KDE4, using KDE4 technology:
Hardware handling with KDE4's Solid interface
More comprehensive multimedia file handling using KDE4's Phonon interface
Easy Geolocation with KDE4's Marble interface
XMP metadata support
TIFF/EP RAW metadata editing
Customizable file storage for the digiKam database, supporting remote albums
Support of multiple root album paths (no more importing into one giant album)
Thumbnail-bar integration for easy navigation and editing
Supports the latest camera RAW files

New/revamped tools:
Revamped camera import wizard
LensFun integration: auto-correction of lens distortion
Fuzzy searches based on hand-drawn sketches
Advanced searches using image meta-information, like keywords and dates
Map searching that gives you the power to search for global photo locations
Advanced searches for duplicate and similar images

digiKam can also make use of the KIPI image handling plugins to extend its capabilities even further for photo manipulations, import and export, etc. The kipi-plugins package contains many very useful extentions.
