Hi

I'm finding that using the amount of sharpening you suggest in CS raw is
generating too many artefacts. I've found that leaving more of the
sharpening until the end is getting me the best results (landscapes)
especially with bigger (25"x17") prints.

The batch facilities are very good in C1, but I take raw and jpeg at the
same time and use the jpegs for weeding out the frames worthy of individual
conversion. The lighting and exposure often varies quite a bit, so batch
processing would not really help much with this area of my work.  Where I
have used a batch conversion (such as correcting some particularly weird
lighting in a sports hall) the CS actions were up to the job.

I know some people consider the conversion ability of C1 vastly superior,
but maybe they shoot differently from me and have somewhat different
perceptual faculties :-) :-)

I suppose when it comes down to it, any advantages offered by C1 are -to me-
currently not worth the extra dosh, which is also enough to prevent more
extended experimentation.

bye for now

PS Thanks to all those who sent messages of sympathy after I nearly lost my
house in the fire -- I know of several people have also now instigated a
more thorough off-site backup policy ;-)
