If your camera writes native DNG files and B4 can't open them, I encourage you to contact the developers via the Bibble Forum and make a request. They pride themselves on compatibility, but non-native (generic) DNGs introduce a bunch of issues for them.
I'll just wait for v5 and see how that handles the Sinar DNGs.

I must be doing something wrong. I tried browsing a folder of images in v4, and all I see is 20 pictures of a cat (not my images), and I can't seem to open any of the images. I'm probably doing something wrong, but I usually master a whole program without any help from a manual (e.g. Photoshop, Lightroom) so I wouldn't call this an intuitive interface.
It's not indeed. Too bad because for everything else I really like Bibble. The picture of the cat (his name is Bibble btw) shows up when something went wrong (as you guessed).
The interface looks much better on V5. Can't wait to download it!
I would love to try it but I've keyworded and smart-collected all my images in Lightroom. Will B5 be mainly a straight raw converter? Or are they making an attempt at a CMS?
I've been using BibblePro almost exclusively since 4.x was released, and it's still my favorite. Aperture 2.x has its benefits, but I haven't used it on enough files to make a firm decision as to whether I have a preference for it over Bibble, yet. I'm very excited about BibblePro 5.x, but they've been dragging out the release since Summer of last year, and that's getting tiresome. Here's to hoping it's all they say it is.
I use Bibble 4, too, and I'm eagerly looking forward to the new version. I love the speed, and I get better results with it than with any other converter I've tried.
