I've just bought a Nikon D5100, my first DSLR after being a long time film user. Can people recommend good freeware applications RAW editing, re-touching and batch converting files into different sizes/resolutions?
I'm not a pro photographer and Photoshop is just too much money, and far too complex for my needs.
At the moment I'm using The GIMP (no laughing at the back) and RAW Therapee. The former seems a bit cumbersome and the latter does not have effective noise reduction.
Also, is there any software that lets you "burn" and "dodge" pictures like in the old days?
