Perfectly Clear plugin still does not work. It looks like no image is being passed. Neil

Same here Fluid Mask is not available in the Windows version. Hopefully Plugin support is one of the priorities as it is the biggest issue I have today. Neil

Opening CR2 files from my 5D MKii was taking around 6 seconds on my main PC (I7 4790K processor, 32 GB DDR 2400 RAM, a GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics card, SSD drive for operating system and applications and a hybrid SSD drive for image storage) but since the latest update which is supposed to have improved the speed opening RAW files it is now taking 9 seconds on average. Is anyone else experiencing the same behariour is is it just something strange my end. I have not timed performance on my Laptop but this also seems slower. Neil

As bridge is an image browser I am not sure if you are looking for a direct replacement or a proper DAM application. In terms of paid for applications I have tried many and use IMatch as my DAM application. The best application I have used as an image browser is ACDSee. You could use this as a DAM application but DAM functionality is not its strong point, it does excel as an image browser though. Neil

I have tried several CR2 images from my Canon 5D MKiii and on average it is taking 3 seconds to open a file in Photoshop CS6 and 6 seconds in Affinity photo so twice as long. Development of the RAW image seems to be as quick as Camera RAW and I am not seeing may other speed issues with tools. The speed difference therefore appears to only be opening the file from what I have seen so far. This is using a PC with an I7 4790K processor, 32 GB DDR 2400 RAM, a GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics card, SSD drive for operating system and applications and a hybrid SSD drive for image storage. Neil
