Hello,
since I heard a few complaints among Rawshooter users with the new 400D (pc crashes etc), I think it may be helpful to know that someone offered a potentially valid solution.
Here it's a part of the text found on DPReview written by the user PhotoHans (thank you!) ... haven't tried it myself, but it may be worth looking ...
I like working with Pixmantec Rawshooter very much. But since I bought my 400D, I wasn't able to use my favorite tool anymore...
However, after some experiments I found a way to use it again for my 400D Raw photographs.
The solution involves to steps:
- You have to use DNG files. Download Adobe DNG converter 3.6 (only this version can convert .CR2 files from a 400D!) from Adobe and convert the raw .CR2 file (from your 400D) to .DNG using the converter.
- Make a copy of RAWSHOOTER.EXE and open the copy in an ASCII editor (like Codewright or Crimson). Find and replace the text '350D' with '400D' and save the copy. Make sure the new file has EXACTLY the same number of bytes as the original.
Now start running the new version of RawShooter you've just created. It will 'see' all your .DNG files you've just converted. ;-)
It Works! ;-)
