Hi John,
You will get some software with the camera, particularly for editing RAW files, but I would simply buy Adobe Photoshop Elements 5. In my view this is far and away the market leader and does most of what Photoshop CS does but for a fraction of the cost. It will also process RAW files if you plan to shoot using RAW rather than JPEG. You should be able to buy it for around £60.

You should get some programmes with your camera - at least for uploading.
Otherwise try IrfanView - Official Homepage - one of the most popular viewers worldwide
Does most things you would need to do with a picture - and is free!  Quote:

You could try rawshooter its free to download and is very good.Thats if all you want to do is tweak your images ie sharpening and stuff |

You could possibly even find Lightshop V1 which was the last free version

And I believe they have no plans to update it or produce future plug-ins.
