Default A question about RAW

Probably been asked before.

I shot in RAW at the weekend but I don't have anything to open the files in. Do I need special software and where can I find it?

Ta!

You'll need Photoshop, Lightroom or iPhoto to use RAW.

I did that at Donny Park ages ago, had nothing to open it with, and forgot about the pics until a year later

GIMP will work too with a plug in which is easily obtainable and its free.

Personally, I still prefer to use RAWShooter Essentials to manage my RAW files but that was bought out and 'turned into' Photoshop Lightroom, so it probably won't support newer cameras.
