Haven't tried it on a Mac, and it sounds like it is not going to be worth the effort. Another good one for DNG files is Darktable, but I seem to recall that you were not too impressed by it.I tried the Mac version but it's twitchy as hell.
Another potential for Mac (and this is speculating) is the Hasselblad Phocus software, which is a free download.
Thanks - I'll give them both a look.
Ok - So I've started off with Phocus and while I'm not too keen on the interface what I have discovered is that if I load them in the app and then export them as DNG files I can now edit them in Aperture... it's an extra step but I'll take it. Thanks @garyc!

No, but I think it's going to be a long time before I outgrow it.

Should have a Phantom 4 by next week - Prepare for all my questions. (I'll try google first)
Photomatix Pro also reads the files which means I can continue using it for HDR
Enjoy

Hahahaha it took me awhile but eventually I took the risk
I would have risked it to take some photos of the chokka boats outside but it's a little too windy right now. Perhaps later.
The drone is impressive during windy conditions

Yeah but it's really windy - if I was a capetonian I'd probably start a thread about just how windy it is...
SchweetTry taking a quad / drone out "just just" over the sea
Ended up upgrading my OS to High Sierra and everything seems to work - old software and new, and it recognises the DNG files without having to resort to another app.

don't do it man, saltwater and electronics don't mix,
got mine stuck in a tree once, took hours to get it down with a giant pole for cleaning pools.
now stuck with a busted motor
when I tried to locate it in the branches of the tree.luckily I have the citi golf of drones, so shouldn't be too hard to fix this
Awesome! What's your setup? I'm getting into FPV myselfTry taking a quad / drone out "just just" over the sea
