Doesn't seem anything on this new firmware which is worth upgrading for. Does anyone no also whether Raw Files will open in Photoshop Elements 6.0

I'd also like to know the answer to this. I used to use Adobe Camera Raw with cs2 before I upgraded from 400D to 40D but can't any longer. I can't afford cs3 so am thinking about Elements 6.

For information, Elements 6 won't work with the latest Mac OS-X 10.5.1 (Leopard), neither will CS2. I have had to upgrade from Photoshop 7 to CS3 extended.

Yes it will - Adobe Camera RAW supports the 40D RAW format and works with Elements 5 and 6.
