of choice (I have used all the RAW converters over the years except 
Bibble).  For color--they are still a bit 'off', but I use Capture 
One with custom camera profiles there and have used the RSE 
parameters to get closer to that (be careful of the sharpening/detail 
settings).  I also think (though its possible you do no color 
shooting) that Magne Nilsen will create color profile for RSE when 
they offer the 'for sale' version.  BTW, the RSE version will always 
be 'free'---but they will offer one with a  lot of options in the 
future for a 'relatively' (their words) reasonable price.  The 
developer was the major developer of Capture One--and I much prefer 
it over ACR for color.  My workflow is good---it batches without 
having to play around with an action or script.  I understand that 
PSCS2 allows this also, but I can't see anything that lures me to 
upgrade this time.  RSE will convert Rebel XT (and I expect that 
Canon's own DPP will also--as well as Breezebrowser which uses 
CAnon's SDK).

but much better than their software in the past.
