ReaConverter. That is what I used when we did the 5x5, and I converted your raw image

Convert RAW images with ReaConverter (http://www.reaconverter.com/raw.html)

Have you tried the free ViewNX2 from Nikon? It does pretty much everything I need. Their translation will be the best as they wrote the RAW processing program but I haven't tried another for comparison. If there is another that is proven better I'd be interested in hearing about it.

Thanks.

Also..can copy pasting raw images from camera to computer corrupt the files? I tried to use adobe bridge but the computer wouldn't allow that so I tried the copy/paste and now wondering if that my be my problem.

Copy/Paste should work fine. They're just files in the file system. Is it possible that there is corruption of the original on the card?

Another RAW processor that I use as part of my Gimp workflow, though it says it can be used stand-alone is ufRAW: UFRaw - Home (http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/)

htanks for the reply. I made the mistake of thinking I had to download the dng converter for cs3 (which I use). I tried the version for cs5 and it worked like a charm. Please lottery gods..look my way so I can get set up with a new computer and programs again..please!

It costs more than it should but an easy way to finance a new computer is through Dell. You can get quite a humdinger for $50/month or less. Not the best financial solution but sometimes an easier pill to swallow.
