DSLRs

For those of you with Nikon DSLR's --- if you want save your shots as NEF files and be able to view them in M$ Windows XP, here's a review of a RAW image file viewer from M$ (so you don't have to install the Nikon Software).

DCViews - Microsoft RAW image thumbnailer and viewer for Windows XP

I normally run Linux on my home PC, and there are several image viewers available that support NEF files.  But I didn't want to install any non-Microsoft applications at work.  So, I tried the M$ RAW image viewer, and it works.  Basically, it's like a plug-in for the regular Microsoft Picture and FAX viewer.

There are a number of other Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP that you might like to try.  Some have to do with Photo Image Processing, and others do not.


Take Care,
