I dont use DSS, I use AIP4WIN.
I find the quoted a bit strange As:
1.AIP4WIN does not deal properly with canon 40d raw images.The opened image has severe tinges of green.
2.The canon raw is 14 bits.
3.So to get AIP4WIN to handle the image correctly, I must convert to 16 bit tiff first.
4.When AIP4WIN opens the tiff image is perfect.
5.There is a smaller bit difference of 2 bits between16, 14 and 12 bits so I dont understand why the image should be darker.
Could you elaborate on this theory please.
