Great alternative RAW conversion software(Mac), for free!

Post by Stany Buyle »

I was amazed that you can download the Hasselbald RAW conversion software(Phocus 2.5) for free, also while not having a Hasselblad camera.
You only have to register on their website while providing some information about the gear you use.
Even though the software initially works on both PC and Mac, it only opens third party RAW(Nikon NEF), TIFF and Jpeg files on Mac ssytem only(see screenshot at the bottom of this message).
I tested on the Mac of a friend of mine(Thanks Richard!) with a Nikon D3x and Nikon D700 NEF file and everything works great. It was not able yet to open a D7000 NEF file though...

Click on the underneath screenshot to open the link:

Supported file formats from third party RAW(Nikon NEF), TIFF and Jpeg files on Mac ssytem only:

A tutorial to learn how to use this software can be found here:
