Absolutely correct but, unfortunately, the brand/model information is not readily available from Apple.

Jan 15, 2012 12:40 PMby Philly_Phan,That's better than I've found but even that doesn't make sense. Granted, the OS/IOS support is important but so is the application itself. I have three SLRs, two Nikon D80s and one Nikon D5100. I have an iMac with Lion. The D80 NEF (Nikon RAW) files open in every photo application that I have. The D5100 NEF files will not open in Adobe Lightroom but they do open in Adobe Photoshop CS5 via Camera RAW. They also open in iPhoto and Nikon's Capture NX2.
