Yeah, you are right. I have to fix the blown highlights. As for the blacks, I just like them that way. I know some people don't, but don't like seeing a greyish background.

Don't I need DPP to convert the .cr2 to .tiff? DSS won't work with .cr2 files, will it? And I like to do some 16 bit processing before going to gimp. Gimp only handles 8 bit files.

Ahem. No. Not this time. The AP really doesn't require flats. This weekend I'm going out again, and I'll take some shots with the Edge HD, and I'll try doing it right (or at least, a little more right) []
