Wait for Adobe Lightroom 3. It's about to be released. It features much improved noise handling and demosaicing routines that are jaw dropping.





The best quality images I ever created came from Phase One Capture One, BUT the program is incredibly user unfriendly and sloooooooooooooow. With the improved demosaicing routines in Lightroom improved (better rendering of raws with more details than before) the quality gap between capture one (their rendering is jaw dropping in terms of sharpness and detail quality and noise) and lightroom... is getting smaller.
