I've never used Lightroom or any of the others suggested....definitely curious about them tho
I was thinking more along the lines of doing something super simple like resizing 200 images...applying a resize action to one image and then applying that action to the rest of them.. That's easy and something photoshop can handle with out any problems...or at least that's my experience.
As far as color correction and all that other stuff...i'll trust the pro photographers when they say "Use Lightroom"...
