What does this mean- there is no need for Nikon Capture 3.5 or similar, does CS actually "process" RAW files, OR is this just about 'opening' the RAW files? I have been able to do that in PS6 and 7 for ages, with NEF plug-in. Course, you can open the RAW image in PS and then save it, but it opens as a small file; surely just making a file bigger by adding mb in PS isn't the answer using 'file size' - this is why we use raw processing sw - right? I was under the impression that to make a raw file into an image, one should use a dedicated raw processing s/w instead, to allow for things like white balance or interpolation (at source) etc?? Course I could do a print test, but I am still (like Shangara) injured badly from fighting on the color management frontline.. no wish to complicate matters if the list knows the answers! Therefore does Photoshop (I use a D1x with PS7 and Capture 3.5) do what Ricardo is suggesting? Maybe Ricardo isn't using the processing s/w that he should? Apologies if I have it wrong RV. All this - if true, points towards me going Panther... brr .. a shiver just went down my neck. OS9 is now sounding a bit redundant.
