I just got the PhotoShop 7 upgrade yesterday ($105 after rebate).
Now they want $99 for a plug-in?
Seems high...

Well if the results are better then with the Dimage Viewer, with lower noise, 16bit per color chanel, more acuurate colors, sharper images then 99$ would be acceptable for me. I trust as soon as anyone tries it, that that they will post some samples?
I tried many different MRW converters for the minolta and allways get too much nose in the blue chanel and that allways gave me mixed results when I tried to ICC color profile the D7i. Sincerely hope this will imporve things for the Minolta Cameras.

$99 would probably be acceptable to me to if Minolta refunds my money for the piece of c-r-a-p DIVU 2.0 they sold me... and if they won't refund me then maybe they could meet me half way by making a program that actually works on the mac. the update they released for the mac back in sept/oct is not compatible with Jaguar (OS X 10.2.x) and constantly crashes. that was the biggest waste of $40 i ever spent.

from what i remember those 2 free plug-ins are PC only (i have a mac) and you don't have as much control over the levels as you do with the new adobe plug-in.....

Would that home-made photoshop plug-in for RAW be the one from this site?

Hey dont laugh, the images really stunk like crazy. They had too much nose, or maybe the photographer was the prolem....LOL, sorry for the typo and hope it made a few people smile... "nose" was supposed to be "noise".

I can email you the other. It is not as nice though. I tried it first, sometime ago.

If the price tag bothers you, you could also wait till the end of the year when PS8 is release. On the Adobe web site it says that at least the RAW plugin will be included in future versions of PS. Hopefully JP2000 support is also included.

All I know is...if it keeps me from having to figure out how to use and manipulate crappy DIVU, I will do it. Besides...even the "for OS X 10.2" version of DIVU isn't very stable. I'll take anything Adobe makes at any price...any day of the week. Especially since I got PS7 so darn cheap (great being a student at a university...$200 for a full version).

Alien,
IMO, (based on about 2 hours with it today) the MRW support in the Minolta plug-in is at least as good as DIVU and may be better. $100 to get JP2K (effective lossless compression) support and remove an entire application from my workflow was a bargain.
Bye Bye DIVU!
Now if that plug-in worked in PS Album (which I also got today), I'd be downright tickled. But, of course, it does not ..whimper..

Hi Laird,
If you are using the MRW plug-in from adobe, could you post some samples of it compared to a plain camera JPG and a DIVU raw conversion? It would be nice to see how Adobe performs in terms of color acuracy, detail and more importantly, NOISE.
Thanx
