Hi Godfrey there is seldom a day without taking some photographs or scanning old ones or teching myself some photo related stuff on the computer or by reading books for me. And most of the time I carry at least one camera with me nowadays. Yesterday I tried my "cream can flash diffuser" with some close-up of plants and made some night shots too. Today I scan some old photos of my ship travels again with a slightly better scanner ;-)

Why not just continue with what you were using? iView Media Pro and PSE4+Camera Raw 3.6 does fine with DNG files. Convert PEFs from the cameras before K10D to DNG, write DNGs directly from the K10D. Another fine solution is Lightroom. I've been working with it again today. The more I work with it, the more I like it. There are still some things I haven't figured out ... I get better prints out of PSCS2, for instance ... but for many things it is proving to be very good. Both the last two PAW shots were processed in Lightroom.
