Nice find
It's funny that at http://www.arcsoft.com/en-us/software_title.asp?ProductCode=PS6 their photostudio6 package (image editing) says: "The program fully supports popular RAW file formats by Canon, Nikon, Panasonic, Adobe (DNG), Sony, Kodak, Olympus, Sigma, Mamiya, and Epson". Tsk tsk
This was exactly the sort of step I'd expect a smart company to take - I think the development of software in-camera will hugely outpace hardware over the next few years

... just another middle-aged guy with a hobby. I have an extreme macro learning site at extreme-macro.co.uk - Pentax-centric, your feedback and comments would be appreciated!
