Hi Godfrey I'm mainly using Photoshop CS3 and ACR 4.1, (I've just upgraded to ACR 4.2 with the release of Lightroom 1.2). I was using CS3 at the time and noticed quite a dramatic shift in colour between DNG and PEF, I was too busy to investigate the reason and promptly switched back to DNG. It wasn't long after I'd done a complete reformat of the PC so may just have been a colour space problem or something similar, but I'm curious enough to try a few exposures between DNG and PEF myself on the chance that it's a problem with the camera. I'd like to use the PEF format for the space saving advantages.
