Just downloaded a copy of the above program from the Samsung website as it is in fact a version of Silkypix 3 :tup:
However, before you all rush off to get it unfortunately it has been kneecapped somewhat in that the only RAW files it will open are DNG files. I also saw on another forum that someone had tried using the Pentax DNG files from a K10D ie virtually the same as the Samsung GX10 and it wouldn't work so looks like it is only Samsung DNGs to boot.
However, if you're thinking of going for a new DSLR, GX10s are going for a song and, although you don't get SRC2.0 in the box (it normally ships with the GX20) you can get it for free from the website. So its worth factoring in that the total price therefore includes a fully functional version of Silkypix, as long as you only ever buy Samsung DSLRs.
First impressions are that it is really jolly good :D
I also have Silkypix which came bundled with my Panasonic Z8. Only played with it a couple of times but so far it looks a nice little programme and user friendly.
Nothing else I have tried (apart from Irfanview) will open my RAWs from the pano.
Changing tack slightly, does anyone use the "piknix" feature in flkr ?
Some nice little adjustment features in there and very easy to use :tup:
