As I'm currently using C1 3.7, I'd be interested in a comparison there. I have tried other RAW converters, but I always go back to C1...it just produces great things in an intuitive, easy to manage interface, and it batch processes so easily. ACR drives me crazy, but produces good images.
What happened to the collar in the Bibble shot? Notice the very prominent banded, apparently blown, white area.
EDIT: Y'all wonder what the heck I'm talking about. On the LCD monitor I was looking at these on earlier today, the highest-key strip of the collar in the 100% crop Bibble shot was very noticeably blown/banded, in contrast to the other three shots which were not. On the two monitors I'm looking at it on this evening, that effect is not apparent at all on one (also an LCD), and just barely discernable on the other (a calibrated CRT). Weird.

it seems fairly clear to me that ACR is doing some color noise reduction--turning off NR there probably simply turns off luminance noise reduction.
Color noise reduction and luminance smoothing are set separately in ACR, though it's not out of the question that "0" color noise reduction doesn't actually mean "0".
