Hi,

I've just upgraded my system from vista to win 7 x64.

in vista I was using windows photo viewer and had canon raw codec installed.

but is there a windows photo viewer for win 7 x64 or is windows media centre its replacement? Can I install the canon raw codec on 7 x64?

I can see my .cr2 files in bridge but it's just quite nice to have photo viewer as an alternative.

Thanks,

Duncan
 
This works (32 and 64 bit) perfect for me with Windows 7.

It even opens 'Windows Photo Viewer' when clicking on raw thumbnails in any folder.

I downloaded the link in Micks post, so now the CR2 RAW Canon files just look like JPEG thumbnails and I can look at them in the same way. Is that what this does?

I think a more relevant question is what are you expecting it to do and if you dont know what something is going to do why are you downloading it? :nono: asking for a world of hurt:bonk:

Short Answer: Yes.

I knew what I thought it meant, but it didnt say how it was supposed to look. Opening the file you download gives you no clue, just boxes to click of file types. The only thing I noticed is what I said, which it how I thought in honesty, I just wondered if it were like Zoombrowser or something that you open them in their own library or something, thats all.
 
Dawn, it is, like you say, to view your 'raw' files in folders.

You can also d/click one and it will open the 'windows picture viewer' so you can view them bigger or in a slideshow, as you would with jpegs.
 
Thanks
