I use a D70 and hav a RAW workflow myself, embedded within DigiKam.<br>
Here's what I do:<br>
<ol>
<li>Shoot NEF only (no 'jpeg-buddy' files).</li>
<li>Exit digikam</li>
<li>Take card, upload into own directory within digicam album
directory using fast reader.</li>
<li>Run a special script (which you may have if you want it). This
script scanss through my whole digiKam album dir and<br>
</li>
<ul>
<li>Moves all NEF files into a (new)./nef sub dir</li>
<li>Makes preview (mail, web) images +/- 700x500 in the original
upload directory using fast DC-Raw settings based on saved profile
(incl exif)<br>
</li>
<li>Replaces any missing preview images</li>
<li>leaves already processed nef files alone</li>
</ul>
<li>I then start DigiKam</li>
<li>Using the right menu (open with...) on my PREVIEW images, I fire
scripts that:</li>
<ul>
<li>Delete jpeg preview and assoc. nef</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Open DC-Raw, Gimp etc with the assoc. nef.</li>
</ul>
</ol>
Basicaly this allows me to utilise my favorite raw converter and the
awesome speed and versatility of DigiKam to best advantage.<br>
<br>
Maybe this could be of help to you?<br>
