There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross

I sure hope that Adobe gives RawShooter premium owners a discount on Light Room when it comes out, or I'm going to be upset with Adobe. I use RawShooter on most of my work except for color critical jobs. Capture One's camera profiles are more accurate than RawShooter.

I receive a monthly newsletter from "The Plugin Site" .. and this is what they had to say

Quote ... Adobe acquired the technology assets of Pixmantec. Adobe plans to integrate Pixmantec raw processing technologies into Lightroom. As a result the Pixmantec RawShooter Premium product is being discontinued, but the free RawShooter Essentials product will continue to be available until the Lightroom public beta program is completed. Existing Pixmantec customers will continue to be supported by Adobe and will be provided with an upgrade path to Adobe products.

that, of course, isn't saying much

Adobe upgrades ordinarily cost as much as 50-60% of the full retail price.....

Adobe Aquisition of Pixmantec .. PDF document .. 3 pages

Quote ... Q: Will there be special pricing for those who have invested in RawShooter | Premium?

A: We have listened closely to the opinions shared by customers on the Pixmantec forums and although Lightroom will provide a much broader range of functionality than RawShooter | Premium and will be offered at a higher price point, we will be offering a free downloadable version of Lightroom 1.0 to all customers who have purchased RawShooter | Premium.

A free download of Lightroom!! That's pretty cool since I bought RawShooter | Premium for $80.00 when it was first released.
