|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Something aside from photoshop for RAW files? James Nix, Photographer Charlotte | NC | USA | Posted: 12:05 AM on 01.27.10 ->> Hello all, I'm looking for a little advice here. I recently picked up a Nikon D300s and I have the Adobe Creative Suite 3 on both my personal and work computers. From what I have found, there is no Camera Raw update compatible with with CS3 that will handle the D300s NEF files. I just recently purchased creative suite 3 and I'm hoping not to upgrade to CS4 just yet so I was wondering how you handle raw files minus the latest Camera raw plugin. I've heard good things about both lightroom and aperture, but I've never used either. Right now my workflow is view/edit with photo mechanic and then open/tone in photoshop. thanks James  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I have found that NX (NX2 now) and it's "Saved Settings"Feature is great, especially when I'm shooting Product in the studio, I can save a set of settings and apply them to a continuing Shoot, over and over again!!
