If you can get your hands on a copy of RawShooter Essentials 2006 it will convert to either 8 or 16 bit tif, or jpg and save the EXIF information. If you're using a K10D, I think someone on the list posted a way to massage the RawShooter program file to work on K10 RAW. If you can't find a copy of the original RawShooter I can get one to you.
