I use a good RAW converter, Capture One LE, which gets the image into good
shape. It's not too expensive.
Then usually I find Irfanview can do the rest, though I have a version of
Elements and Picture Window Pro for use if necessary.

Thanks to all, so far,
I us e Photoshop7 for serious work, but this one cannot use RAW plugin.
I will try Irfanview, but I fear that user interfacing will not compare
to Rawshooter.
Maybe I want too much: I want a mixed file handler, with the user
interface of RAWSHOOTER and for free (or cheap)

There is no Photoshop "Lite" so Elements would be the choice with

Elements with
scanners, etc., at least here in the US.
Adobe Camera RAW 3.3 is a good choice, and Elements can use it. Also
good,
if the point is just to view rather than view and edit, is the latest
incarnation of Irfanview, which is a free program. It'll open JPEG's,
RAW,
and more file types than you've ever heard of. It will set up timed
slide
shows as well, and will open mixed files while so doing.

Jos, if you want to view all of the file types produced by your DS,
you probably need to get something like Photoshop, either the CS
version or
one
of the Lite versions which often come bundled with scanners, etc.
Alternatives abound, and no doubt many on the list will advise you in
various directions!
For myself, I have found RawShooter excellent for batch conversions,
but
if
I have time and want work with smaller numbers of images, I much prefer
to
use Photoshop, with the CameraRaw converter tool, working on one image
at
a
time. Much more precise control over what the result will be, IMHO.

Elements (3 or 4) will work too.
