From reading the readme file I understand that to get the full advantage of its magic sauce (=better-looking high-ISO images) I need to upgrade Camera Raw to 6.1, which I am now in the process of downloading. Now, Adobe says that this version of Camera Raw is not compatible with Photoshop versions below CS5. I have CS3 and have no interest in upgrading. I only use Photoshop for my panoramas. The workflow is to export TIFF files from Lightroom and then merge them in Photoshop. So, my questions are: 1) Will installing Camera Raw 6.1 render my CS3 useless? 2) If not, then I will install it, but what do I then have to do in LR3 in order to douse my existing catalog (already upgraded to LR3) in the Camera Raw 6.1 magic sauce?
