Does anyone know of any useful freeware for converting RAW files to JPEG ?


Thank You, Fred.

Did your camera not come with software to convert RAW?

It did, but the software seems to screw up my computer making it slow down. Although it does work fine, its just 57.6mb per file hock:.

I can't believe I'm gonna say this, especially after all this hype about a new camera

I've been using it, but the download is a 30 day trial though. Also don't forget that different cameras use different types of RAW images. For example, my Canon uses a CR2 format rather than .raw. If you just do a google with the title freeware raw converting software, then this link would pop up http://www.photo-freeware.net/raw-shooter-essentials.php

IrfanView is also a good one. It's free, and it's also 'portable', meaning you can run it from a memory stick, portable harddrive, etc.

I did need to install the Canon DLL's to open CR2 files (the IrfanView website also explained how to do that).
