HI Rileyok i chased the inf on RAW processing and this is what I found, It pertains to Olympus bundled software, but I guess if C1 is a more sophisticated RAW processor it might be following the same route.
the author of this is usually right on the money

"If you use an Olympus RAW developer you'll still have to be careful because it will use the camera settings as the default RAW development settings."
and yes I remember it best b/se I was wrong at the time....
I've also been out with the new 520. This is from a jpg processed in LR2 with 'sharpen landscape' preset - is it sharp enough?Awesome it must be I just need to be a little more aggressive with sharpening with C1 than

Me toono idea mysef Jono,
Im on the hunt for editing software and will probably look at Bibble and C1 over the next week or so, although on briefly looking at Bibble seems it wont take 8bf plugins. I never use the Olympus stuff except for lens/flash/body firmware updates its just to darn slow.
Bottom OlyI've found the Canon 5D to be simply too heavy for me to hold up or even carry around, and I use it almost exclusively on a tripod. However, the Oly 520 has given me back the ability to use an SLR handheld. Here's a couple of pix, taken at dawn yesterday and today, one with the 5D [tripod] and one with the 520 [handheld]. Both RAW processed identically in LR2 [including input sharpening, but not output sharpening], and the 520 is cropped to 3:2. I'm impressed with the quality of the 520. Maybe not a fair test, conditions not identical, but which is which?
And apologies to Lili for hijacking what was her thread!
