I have two files, from my first go at raw.
The first is a DNG FILE 12.1MB this is the raw one the second file is PDS and is 36.7mb, apart from tweeking the balance on the raw i have done nothing else as yet. So why is the PDS FILE so big.
Regards

If you open a RAW/DNG photo in the editor it automatically goes to the ACR dialog.
I don't know which version of ACR will read K-r RAW. It should tell you somewhere on the Adobe site which version supports it.
If your version can't read them then convert them to DNG and then you will have no problems.
I thought that was answer, just needed to make sure.

The K5 is priced at $699 with free shipping;
The Kr is priced at $248 + $30 shipping fee..
Just in case anybody may be interested!!
As you deal with China do you have any idea what the import duty is on photo gear.

Dave:::
Customs handling fee - typically between £8 - £18 (though possibly higher, or even lower!)
VAT - 20% of the declared value of the goods (20% is UK vat rate)
Import tax - depends on the commodity (lens/ camera body, flashgun, etc)
If you care to PM me what you had in mind for importing, I'll check the online integrated tariff at work for the duty rate. It's a subscription-based service, and I don't have the login ID here at home. As a guide though, work on the basis (for now at least) that import tax is levied at between 4-7%, and you won't be too far out.
If you bought a £500 camera, expect to pay:
Customs fee = £25 (shown for estimated calculation only)
VAT = £100 (£20 per £100 spent)
Import tax @ 7% = £35
So, the bottom line is that all in, your shiny new camera has cost you £660 in total (minus shipping fees).
I will keep the figures in case i need them.
