Well, what can I say... 1st 12 years of my amateur digital cameraman career I also neglected the raws (because I considered myself to be good at jpegs editing, hahaha). In recent years, I have changed my point of view by 180%. Raws are not evil but very, very good magic! the problem is, they devour the lifetime for their processing and harddisc storage space like crazy! 😜

That is indeed the biggest problem! And I need some new software, like photoshop. I am using an outdated old program from my youth.

Time for some change it seems!

i use photoshop too (have an old version 5.5, and more recent version from 2021), can help you with the installer, that is not a big problem... but one need a powerful PC indeed, to run and process it... actually i do remember some milestones that mark my computer upgrades, and it is exactly the raw processing, that pushed me to do upgrade the N-1 time. 😎

PS. a little free soft RAW Therapee also can do the job...

Sorry for the late reply! Life is a little hectic on this side.

Yeh, that is the problem. You need some power on your side. My laptop I am using is still from 2017 or somewhere there. I have not had the time to upgrade nor the money. But this year or next year I am going to buy a better system with more power and a new camera. If all goes to plan that is! Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.

upgrades are a must, from time to time.
I obtained a powerful Dell notebook for my wife, and myself still work on PC from 2010 8-) I wish you well. 🙏

Thank you so much! I am also thinking about going from a laptop to a desktop PC. You can upgrade it more easily and keep it up to date. Laptops are not that forgiving.
