Bibble Pro is a RAW-enabled Digital Darkroom application, capable of converting RAW images from over 100 of the most popular digitalSLR's and Prosumer point-and-shoot cameras. It offers a very customizable workflow to allow many types of users to feel at home in the application, instead of requiring them to conform to one pre-set working style. Bibble Pro can be run as a stand-alone application on Windows PC's, Mac's and Linux computers, or can be run as a Photoshop Plug-in. Bibble Pro is one of the fastest RAW conversion applications available - up to 4 times faster that others, and handles JPEG images as well, allowing you to manage and optimize your RAW and JPEG images in the same workflow. Bibble Pro offers a staggering array of image manipulation tools; below is a sample of the most popular tools: NEW: Healing & Clone tool NEW: 3rd Party Plug-ins and Enhanced Lens Correction One-Click Image Correction with Perfectly Clear® Noise Reduction with Noise Ninja Technology Crop and Straightening Blazing Fast RAW Conversion with Multi-CPU support Highlight Recovery and Fill Light And a growing number of 3rd Party Plug-ins Bibble Pro is optimized for high volume workflows, and includes the following features that Bibble Lite lacks: Fully Multi-threaded to run fastest on Dual Core and Dual Processor computers IPTC Captioning and Editor Interactive Work Queues to help organize your photos Registered N

To speed through your RAW conversions Bibble is the tool!

Bibble Pro 4.9 (Win/Mac/Linux)

I shoot only Raw format as a matter of choice. I prefer the flexibility that raw gives me. When I cover the types of events I like to photograph I will end up with 300 to 400 images.

So I need several things from my conversion software: ease of use, speed, dependability and flexibility. Bibble provides me with all of these things.

I have used Bibble Lite for a number of years and recently switched over to the Pro version. I upgraded to Pro for the additional color management and Noise Ninja capabilities.

Some will suggest that the interface needs to be updated and most likely will be in the next version. But I have used Bibble for several years so it doesn't bother me. I open my images, make basic changes to one image and once I am satisfied with it I apply those same changes to all the images. I then review every photo to prioritize them and tweak those that need it.

I enjoy the flexibility that the plug-ins give me to adjust an image over and above the normal settings. I can do most everything I need to do to an image from with Bibble and that includes opening an image in Photoshop Elements to deal with more serious problems.

If I ever figure out a way for Bibble to handle my back up processes I will have a complete workflow.

Tethering ?

I purchased Bibble Pro in hopes it would make taking product shots for our mail order business a little easier. I was mainly interested in the tethering option. I found the provided instruction manual lacks all information on tethering and the tutorials, although helpful did not cover this ether.
With the help of online fourms and a few hours of dabbling I was able to get it to work. It's not hard to do once you get the needed help. It seems to me the manual should have addressed tethering, that would have been helpful.

Over all I like the program and would recommend it for easy to use and powerful batch processing. After getting Bibble I started shooting in RAW full time because it's easy to view, correct, and convert to jpg, tiff , ect...
After a couple of product shot sessions I'm finding I do save time with Bibble Pro tethered to my Nikon D80, I wouldn't give it up. The basic tools are easy to use and work well.

Good..but the same as Bibble Light, unless you are batch processing. With a hefty additional price tag

Gret Product But Needs An Update To Accept TIF Files As Input

I use Nikon Capture NX to 1.34 AUTOMATICALLY remove chromatic abberation from from the raw Nikon .nef files. They are saved as 16 bit TIF files.
However Bibble Pro 4 cannot read TIF files, but ironically it can save as TIF files.
I'm still buying this program shortly as Bibble 5 is expected to be able to read 16 bit TIF files, and will be a free upgrade. Bibble 5 will cost more too.
I love its AUTOMATED Perfectly Clear feature and its tight integration to Noise Ninja - all run in batch mode. This work flow produces the best picture quality with the least fuss.

Great quality but maddeningly awful interface

I am a professional retoucher and have used Aperture, Lightroom, Capture One Pro, RAW Developer and Bibble Pro extensively but I can barely stand to use Bibble Pro because the interface is so impossibly broken that it makes it a chore to use. I've used niche 3-D software developed by programmers with a complete disregard for usability and not found it as frustrating to use as this program - which I want to love since it produces very good results, especially when combined with Noise Ninja Registered. If you are wondering what I mean about bad interface design, it all has to do with how the panel stacking tries to be customizable but just ends up in all sorts of weird configurations of doubled panes, wasted space and any time you would save by Bibble Pro's fast processing is instantly gobbled up by the constant fixing of crazy configurations you will inevitably find these in. I anxiously await a new interface design that doesn't feel like it was spat out of the bowels of a sadist. Then, maybe I'll drop some coin on this capable app.
