Don, here is a link to a blog post by one of the founders of the Halide camera app for ios giving their view on the Apple Proraw file format and how they are planning to incorporate it into their app going forward.

Don, you expressed interest in doing the beer can photo thing and mentioned you thought you couldn’t buy photo paper locally and would have to get it from B&H or Amazon. Downtown Camera in Toronto has photo paper in stock. Henry’s also. Please buy locally, especially now when retail is suffering due to pandemic restrictions.
Absolutely great point, Rex! I’ll see what Downtown Camera or Henry’s has to offer for an online purchase. Thanks!
