Default A really useful bit of software for quickly

Just found this the other day. Thought I'd share. Apologies if anyone has already seen it.

http://drchung.new21.net/previewextractor/

I've found this application will churn through a CD or DVD of RAW files extracting previews a hell of a lot faster than any of my thumbnailing programs will build thumbnails. This is going to save me some time in future.

I'd be interested to hear other's experiences / opinions.

My computer is slow enough I dont think I can handle another graphic editing software. I just use CS2.

Have you tried PS ACR? I don't use anything else for RAW processing anymore, and it's greatly simplified my workflow.

I like the Adobe Digital Negative raw format (.dng). It stores a small jpg inside it so Windows automatically picks up the thumbnail. It's also a raw format so all your original information is there.

Download the DNG Converter here:
