From TrustedReviews:

Amongst the biggest advances in digital photography over the last few years has been the rise of Raw shooting, especially using DSLRs. By using the so-called digital negative, you have far more control over your images and can achieve significantly higher quality than shooting in camera-processed JPEG.

Of course the popularity of Raw means that there's a need for good, easy to use software in order to process the images. There's a number available, from the high end Phase One package to simple and effective Bibble Light. Manufacturers usually bundle in something simple with their cameras too, and of course there's the ubiquitous Adobe PhotoShop in all of its incarnations.

Photoshop relies on the Adobe Camera Raw module for editing and conversion of Raw files, and this tremendous bit of software is incorporated in all of the Photoshop family. It goes without saying then that it lies at the heart of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
