LightRoom Software & .crw files from Canon hack

[JCAT]

Not sure where to post this, however my camera is a Canon A570 IS, so here goes.

I just received this bit of software and was wondering if anybody had used it before.

I'm using CHDK for RAW and quickly realized that Lightroom did not recognize the *.crw files and declared them corrupted. However Picaso has no issue with the format and opens them with no worries.

I tried using Adobes DNG to batch convert them for importation into Lightroom, but to no avail.

Would Photoshop cs3 be a better choice than LightRoom for post processing?

thanks

You need this:

DNG4PS-2 (http://dng4ps2.chat.ru/index_en.html)

Adobe wont read the .crw files either - just use the above to batch convert them to DNG then pretty much everything should read them.

Thank You Sir!

That sorted it.
