The author requests donations, but the download is free and fully functional. Excellent converter: www.rawtherapee.com

"Raw Shooter Essential" supports RAW from your Rebel XT.

Try Canon Digital Photo Professional, it came with your camera and is designed specifically for Canon RAW files. It is a pretty darn good converter/basic editor.

The OP stated that he is at work and they don't have photoshop available.

There is the sticky that covers RAW and would provide you with a solution.

I think the OP found his solution with the first post... I believe his need was to have a RAW converter quick because he was in a bind without his software CD's from Canon or access to Photoshop. All were valid suggestions for a free converter, just not for the situation he was in.


EDIT: (Beat me by THAT much!) Guess Sheldon has quicker fingers than I.

Agreed, but on a side note, you can download DPP from Canon's website.

Only if you have previous version, zoombrowser, or some other software already installed.
