Does anyone have any experience with either of the following for RAW conversion? If so, I would be interested to hear more.
SilkyPix
Helicon Filter
Perhaps my real question is, if Raw Shooter, as bought by Adobe, was so good, what out there, if anything, replaces it? I am inclined to try something other than the Canon-provided RAW conversion s/w.

| I guess everyone is using Rawshooter Pro and bought their copy before Adobe bought them... so they will have to cross that bridge when they come to it. ;-) |

Actually I haven't used either one you are asking about but I have used Capture One for a long time, and I still can't say that CS2's convertor does a better job. The white balance utility in particular is much better in Capture One's software. It's made by Phase One if you wanted to hunt for a demo.

I was using Rawshooter, until someone pointed me to Digital Photo Professional, which I apparently already had on my computer. I think it came with the software/utilties disk that I got with my Rebel. Might want to check it out unless that's the Canon-provided program you're referring to.

I think Digital Photo Professional is the Canon utility. I have tried Bibble, and it has a lot of nice features, but it frequently crashed my computer. Helicon filter has a 30day trial. Tried it last night briefly. Some impressive features, but have not reached any conclusions yet. Other feedback on raw converters requested.

This might be a bit OT but as of last Thursday (7-28) you could still download Raw Shooter Essential from the Pixamantec website at:
//www.pixmantec.com/support/software_updates.asp
under the Feb 2006 software update.
