We received a lot of excellent user feedback after publishing the second
digiKam 6 release in April 2019. We are now proud to briefly announce the
new digiKam 6.2.0, a maintenance version which consolidates this feedback
and acts as an important phase of this 2-year-old project.
digiKam tries to fully support all digital camera formats. However, Raw file
support is a big challenge. This complexity, and the associated difficulty
and commitment required to continue full support over time, has led to the
development of applications specifically created only to support Raw files.
Thank you for this new release. It’s remarkable the feedback that you maintain with the community, thru the digikam-users list. And improvements are reaching users more and more faster thanks to use Appimage format to test any change.
