Do you use the default settings in PS or what?
I haven't touched the camera calibration, but I set my defaults for
Camera Raw to open up without the Auto feature turned on. If you find
you are very frequently making the same correction, it's sensible to
adapt the defaults to do that for you as you can always change it
anyway.
BTW, if you haven't already read Bruce Fraser's "Real World Camera
Raw with Photoshop CS2", do so. It is the best book on RAW processing
available, and treats the subject of Camera Raw, Photoshop CS2 and
Bridge integration better than anything I've read from Adobe.
Also, be sure you download and update to Camera Raw + DNG Converter
v3.2. It's available from the Adobe website. Lots of detail
improvements over v3 that shipped with CS2.
