as many others I found ACR to be superior over any other RAW converter I've tried so far. However I have Pentax utilities stored on a SD card right inside my ist-Ds "just in case" as they occupy roughly the space of 2 RAW images (PC version) and the conversions are usually very good (version 3 based on SilkyPix) and certainly better than in-camera JPEGs. Actually the only major thing ACR seems to do consistently better is taming moire/aliasing artefacts.
