It does 16-bit/channel color (whereas The GIMP only does 8-bit), and it's what you want to use for most RAW image editing. That can save hundreds upon hundreds of dollars. <Tangent=ON> I'm a complete and absolute noob to photography. But I've found the included capabilities of CinePaint to be quite adequate. It even has a solid HDR plug-in. CinePaint plus UFRaw (for importing/converting) my 12-bit color PEF (Pentax RAW) shots from my Pentax K100D (a $300+ uber-entry level dSLR) and $50-250 el'cheapo polycarbon lenses. I'm not even an amateur, I'm a novice, but CinePaint gets the job done well for myself. I'm going to try to take a nice bracket set of Pittsburgh the weekend and use CinePaint to show off what you can do with an el'cheapo dSLR and freedomware for under $500 in hardware. I'll blog it when I have a chance. </Tangent> -- Bryan J.
