It arrived in few minutes... Perhaps they are overloaded now. Bit of a warning though - for me it doesn't work. I can't get the 100% zoom image to work. There has been some talk about problems on Athlon machines.
One thing I miss in it are the curves and levels. I have not been a big fan of them, but after I finally learned how to work with them, I would have to learn to use other controls ;-) Same thing I disliked about PS CS - it has that many different controls to adjust exposure! Just too many - especially in ACR it's different from normal editing. I admit that the shadows/brightnes/... sliders in ACR worked quite well, and probably the few sliders in RSE2005 will work quite well too, but it's pain learning completely different ways of adjusting exposure again :(
I would have most liked just "grade 00-5" and "time", with plugin options
for "split-grade" and "two-bath print developer" ;-)
This brings a question - what's your favourite way of adjusting exposure? What is the most natural to you? In digital "developing" of course :)
Good light! fra
