Can I refine and develop this camera's version of RAW images without having to invest in additional software?

I'm not sure what you mean by "refine and develop" but if the question is whether you can work with the camera's RAW images without buying additional software, the answer is yes. I don't shoot in RAW but I have an associate who has this camera and does shoot in RAW. He found that a call to Photoshop led to getting the update he needed to process the raw images in Photoshop -- and as far as I know he didn't have to pay for the upgrade.

This is an awsome camera with full controls similar to an SLR. You can convert Raw files to JPEG within the camera. You can do a lot of in camera editing like quick retouch, Day Lighting, Skin Sftening, straighten, and crop. The camera usually comes with Nikon View NX2 which allows more image manipulation like contrast, brightness, color booster, red eye, crop, straighten and others. You can do basic manipulation with what Nikon packages up, but for more sophisticated adjustment's you'll need additional software. Nikon has Capture NX2 for further mnulation. Hope this helps.

Do you mean that you want to do in in camera edits of your RAW images? You can to a certain extent. You need to use the edit function when you view your image on the screen.But a better solution is to use the Nikon ViewNX2 software that came with the camera. It's easy to use, it's free and you can do a lot. You can manipulate your RAW images. Personally, I prefer this solution because it's always too difficult for me to do in camera edits. Hope this helps.

The P7700 ships with Nikon View NX. It allows for basic photo editing and organization tasks. This may be a good starting point for you. I use Apeture from Apple on my MacBook Pro or if you own a Mac you can also use iPhoto with the P7700. I'm sure there is something similar to iPhoto on the Windows platform. Adobe Lightroom, while not free, is very good and relatively low cost.

I'm not sure what type of software you currently are using but I've been using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to process, catalog and store all of my RAW images. However, there are many free RAW image processors available. I would suggest doing a google search for free RAW image processing software and try some out. Hope this helps!

Photoshop Elements 11 supports this camera's raw files and is a good buy right now since Elements 12 has been released.

No this software is just a editing software not a digitizing software. You would need the digitize and stitch software.

So long as you have a basic imaging program (paint, photoshop) this is all you need . Once you have the images saved in JPEG, TIFF or a similar setting, you can just import it in, and the software does the rest!

Yes, but you will need a program capable of making an image file. There are a lot, depending upon your operating system, so just read about a few.

I use Premiere Pro 2.0 with some HD encoders, and VoltaicHD to convert the footage from camera for suitable editing (also to deinterlace)

not that I have seen - I scan into Windows Photo live gallery and from there you can edit it into b&w or different tones.

I'd just like to second this question, as I'm facing the same choice myself right now. A review of the Panasonic camera says that unit doesn't offer a RAW image format, but it wasn't really clear if the image compression "noise" was only visible on printouts, or if it shows up on your computer or television screen as well.

Yes you will need software ware to run this program works best with Photoshop!

I can't because I am not that savvy, but I have someone who is, and can use their software to create a seamless presentation.I am very happy with this camera.

you can use the software that comes with the camera (Config tool), which is Windows only. Otherwise, you can configure using the web interface with any browser.

Hello...You can as long as your files to convert ends with .bmp, .tga, .pcx , .tif or tiff. I'm not sure about anything else. Hope this helps.

Not true. You can downconvert in camera and the new file is MPEG-4. The HD File is a MPEG4.H/246 file to begin with.

Yes. Import the photos into a photo editing software. I use Picasa (Google product) and I can crop, change the lighting, contrast, etc. Works great. Only problem with the maching are with pictures that are odd sizes. If the picture comes out of the feeder slide. its hell to get the photo out from inside the machine. I tried using clear plastic but it degraded the lightness of the photo

Looks like Adobe just released an update that now lets you take care of the RAW conversion without having to go via the Sony converter.http://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2014/06/20/adobe-lightroom-camera-raw-dng-converter-updates-support-12-new-cameras

You can still do them the traditional way. The ONLY difference between this camera and the SX260, is that it can be sent via wifi by installing a program. I did not find the pictures with this one very good, so went back to the SX260

The raw footage is in .mts, I use Handbrake (free software) to convert the files into the type that I want. Not a big hassle, I am guessing that the raw files are in a .mts format as it is uncompressed.
