Hi Matt,
"Convoluted" is an apt desription of chdk raw processing.
Can you tell me how this calibration of a new model works. I am interested in TX1 raws.
I have Lightroom1 and it can produce a good output from the DNG conversions but I can't see a program that makes accurate sense of CRW files. I tried Raw Therapee and the shots in low light were not useable. I also have trouble with Raw Therapee in my computer where it is very unstable and I don't understand the way it views folios. I can only view pictures if I use "open with - " commands.
The beauty of using raw in programs like Lightroom and Picasa is they do not distructive edits on the raw file and save a lot of space and messing around.
