What you should do is download it to your hard drive

Yup, I was suggested by Siph to do that. I am doing that now including via new iPhoto that gives the option to store raw files then convert later to Jpeg. Lesson learnt :nod:

Thought you had CS5 now?

cs5 is the bomb
once you get it down youll be looking for plugins
get a drawing tablet
from wacom
it will make your art some much easier and fun

I have CS5 but am having difficulty learning the many features & applying it
It seems like Photoshop Elements is more user friendly.

yeah i do...which am not using it given it's quite complicated for me. Been watching tutorials but still confused. What does Cs5 have to do with jpeg and RAW file storing? Isn't it just for editing? :unsure:

Bridge, which I assume you have installed can be used for multiple use, though I don't use it, so can't give you indepth help, though I know it will help you organise, keyword, rate your photos.

I hope this tutorial will give you a guide to use the RAW Editor

Nope, if you are having trouble with CS5, you will still have the same problem with Elements

Oh you mean Adobe Bridge Cs5. Yup, I have it and browsed through it's uses etc but it's almost same use as iPhoto. Since am used with iPhoto for file conversions esp now with HDR ( TIFF) I opted to stay with what am familiar with. iPhoto too is a lot simpler and user guided.

I've had the 15 day trial version of Photo Elements and it was a lot easier esp it comes with a guided and quick fix tabs. I will have to learn more about Cs5 sometime soon :tooth

Pfft, Elements basically the same, but with things that are stripped away. CS5 and Elements' RAW editor is exactly the same. i.e. the one you see in the video
