Apple released Aperture 3 a few days ago with official support for the G1 and GH1, but for some unknown reason not for the GF1. User helloniklas has posted instructions that allow using GF1 RW2 files directly in Aperture 3 on the Apple forum here. Note that this will break support for GH1 in your copy of Aperture and this will also need to be done with ever new RAW Compatibility Update until Apple gets around to adding official support (there is also a risk that a later update without official GF1 support will make...

Yesterday Apple updated the digital camera raw support for both Leopard and Snow Leopard. That's good news for folks with new Canons or Nikons, as the update adds support for recent cameras. But Micro Four-Thirds users are still left crying in the wilderness. No support for the Olympus EP-1's ORF raw format Still no support for Panasonic RW2 raw in the Lumix LX3, G1, GH1, GF1, etc. -- that's any Panasonic camera released since the fall of 2008 No support for DNG 1.3 lens corrections, which means there's...

Micro 4/3 Lens AdaptersFor using alternative lenses with Panasonic Lumix G1, GH1, and Olympus Pen E-P1All support infinity focus. via docs.google.com Monza over at the getdpi photography forums maintains a complete list of micro 4/3 lens adapters.

Mac OS X v10.6: Digital camera RAW formats supported Panasonic DMC-FZ50 Panasonic DMC-L1 Panasonic DMC-LC1 Panasonic DMC-LX1 Panasonic DMC-LX2 via support.apple.com Still no support for Panasonic RW2 camera raw in Snow Leopard, Apple's latest OS. Alas. None of the Olympus cameras that write lens correction data into raw are supported either. This also means that DNGs from images shot with the G1's native lenses aren't usable in Aperature, as I've mentioned before. DNGs shot with legacy lenses still work fine...
