Must Have Application! (Win 64bitters)

[TheAnimus]

Well its not often I go as far as to say 'Must Have' but this deserves it.

Its a codec plug-in pack that handles well pretty much everything in full 64bit glory. So this means that windows explorer at al will be able to display your RAW images, quickly, these are very well written.

for $10USD its a bit of a no briner imnsho.

Yup, by the looks of things it does deserve it.

The main app sounds interesting too.

yeah i got that when it was still free

Does it do anything other than let Windows explorer view RAW thumbnails? I get this for free on my Sonys, just search for the file on the Sony site. I'm sure the other manufacturers will have followed suit. Seems a bit of a ripoff tbh - just cobbling together files available for free elsewhere...

Canon refuse to support their older cameras when it comes to 64bit OS

Never mind old cameras, the Canon RAW codec doesn't support 64bit OS's at all.

Also these are not a collection of files at all, they are their own decoders, implemented to a MUCH higher standard than the out of the box 32bit ones for Pentax, and without the crashing issue that CS4 introduced!

So as long as I don't use Canon or Pentax I'm sorted? Guess I'm sorted then
