Alternative X3F file converter
1

I am not a great fan of Sigma Photo Pro.  It is clunky and slow.  Searching for alternatives, I tried Adobe Photoshop ACR, didn't work on Quattro files but did work on SD15 files.   Then I tried Faststone version 6.2.  Worked on both SD15 files and SD Quattro files!  And it is fast!  Faststone is free for noncommercial users.  The user interface takes a little getting accustomed to but is very capable.  Below is a sample SD Quattro X3f photo I downloaded from the internet and processed using Faststone.

Processed with Faststone 6.2

The original SD Quattro file is on a website that reviewed the SD Quattro, but I don't remember which one!!  It was stated to be freely downloaded.
