I have been lurking on this site for quite awhile, and have liked it so much that I have finally decided to join the conversations as more than just a lurker. I am not new to photography, but am far from being an expert. Most of my experience has been with film, but I started enjoying the instant gratification of the digital world a few years ago with a Nikon D80. I just upgraded to a Nikon D7200, and now find myself in search of some new software that can process the NEF's from the D7200. My very old Photoshop CS3 program does not have a camera raw capability for the D7200, and I am reluctant to spend the big bucks for a new Photoshop or Lightroom license.
If anyone has suggestions on alternate post processing programs, I would welcome your advice and comments on using them.
Thanks, and I am looking forward to much more enjoyment with the hedgehogs!
