I'm fairly new to post processing digital images. To date, the only programs I have been using are Capture NX2 and Focus Magic.
So I hope this question makes sense:
I hear the term "raw converter" thrown around a lot and I don't really understand what a raw converter is. I assume it's what you initially use to process Raw files. But what gets confusing to me is that people talk about running an image thru their raw converter and then moving on in their work flow to other programs. So am I to assume that most people use a raw converter and then something else? What is Lightroom considered? And what kind of software should you have to do most post-processing, if my NX2 is insufficient?
