A “hidden” option found in PSCS5 / ACR 6 which is such a great advantage. While in CS5, you can open MB [for Mini-Bridge] and if you then select a RAW file, hold down the SHIFT key and Double-click - it will open up directly in PSCS5 without first being processed via ACR [Adobe Camera Raw]. So, why would this be good? Because, one can set certain default handling parameters in ACR for usual post-processing which one might want to by-pass and open the NEF as it is without any adjustments. Also now that ACR has pre-set profiles for all [known] lenses and cameras, these new features in PSCS5, Bridge 5 and ACR 6 just ROCK!
What the dickens is this hogwash?? trying to decipher what the excitement is all about?

This info would be appreciated by co-users of Photoshop – yes I agree it is worthless to photo viewers. Photo on this page has a nice graphic element and is just that. There was no other intent.
