Guess if I ever replace my D200/D300 I'll need to find a new raw
converter. Corel = hell where sw goes to first languish and then die a
slow death.

Amazing what you learn in these newsgroups. I'd never heard of Bibble Labs and
had no idea that Corel was still in business.

Bibble Pro is what got me into a fully-RAW workflow. It's amazingly
fast, and very very good for semi-batch processing (it's easy to make
settings on groups of photos, and then subgroups, and so forth, down to
individual photos; this makes it easy to get "semi-custom" renderings,
which is very useful for event photos and for that matter snapshots).

I'd started Nikon Capture then NX and PSCS2. Then I moved to Raw
Shooter Essentials as that fit the needs of my workflow much better.
When they got gobbled by Paintshop Pro which then went the to Corel to
languish and die I looked at Capture One and Bibble. THere was an
annoying issue of Capture One not deleting files but sending it to the
Recycle Bin under 64-bit XP, so I tried Bibble4. I loved it and even
though have a free upgrade to B5, I stuck with B4. Now it's going the
way of RSE.

Yes, rather the Rolls Royce of RAW processor-catalogers.

Or perhaps your needs, or your preferences, differ from mine. "Think of
the price of oatmeal."

My bad. I guess I merged the bundled with PSP which at some point was
then bought by Corel (either before or after, matters not now) and
then bought by Adobe into Corel buying it.
