    I use Capture One, and love it. It doesn't have a save command, because what you do is process the image, which produces a TIFF or JPEG.

    I've tried the PS RAW conversion, and maybe it's just what I'm used to, but I really dislike the PS RAW converter. Personal preference, I'm sure, as so many are successful with it.

    troy- you have ps cs... just use adobe ps cs, and adobe camera raw.

    get the latest version of adobe camera raw, from here, and follow the instructions and voila.

    When you process, the app will process according to your settings. Type (TIFF,JPEG), quality, etc. and to your process folder. So, when you process, you either don't do anything, because you're happy with the result, or you can open it in PS for further tweaking on the JPEG/TIFF file.

    Troy,

    Since 1 week I've got Rawshooter Essentials, a free tool by pixmantec, you can tweak your images:

    And save them by a simple push of "Insert" on your keyboard to a specified folder:
    40973749.jpg
    It's really easy :D
    *In my mind it IS real*
