FastRawViewer 2.0.9 Release

If you are not saving images simultaneously to two memory cards on your camera, or you don’t have any backups, you might be risking potentially losing your images. While FastRawViewer never deletes anything when culling images (files are moved to a “Rejected” folder), if your memory card is about to fail, additional write operations could make matters worse.Remember, the goal is to eliminate all bad images and only be left with real keepers that you will then import into your post-processing software of choice. You do not want to be losing any images in the process!5) Importing Starred and Color-Labeled ImagesAs I cull through images, I also make sure to select images that are worth editing. Similar to Lightroom, FastRawViewer provides two ways to mark images – using stars and using color labels. Once you star or color-label your images, the information is immediately stored in a sidecar file, so that Lightroom or other post-processing software can take advantage of it. This saves quite a bit of time, since you don’t have to render any JPEG previews and look through images again. Once imported into Lightroom, all star rankings and color labels are preserved, as shown below:6) FastRawViewer PL DiscountWe asked our friends at FastRawViewer for a special discount and they happily agreed!

Browsing through images is slower than with Bridge.What could be the issue?I am using Windows 11 Pro. What is your complete setup? What is your complete setup? In particular: to which GPU you connect your display when using A2000? -- Alex Tutubalin/FastRawViewer team reply For completeness, see below. For completeness, see below. After reinstalling FastRawViewer, restarting Windows, and restoring the preferences, the issue went away. But I'm also now running the machine without the eGPU. It is currently only with the internal Intel GPU. At the moment I cannot do further tests because the eGPU is not detected anymore. Possibly the Thunderbolt ports in my machine are flaky again. So, for now, the issue is solved, but it may resurface once I get the eGPU running again. reply Update: After getting the Update: After getting the eGPU up and running again, I cannot reproduce the issue anymore. As before, I can see that FastRawViewer is using the eGPU in the Task Manager. It starts being used when I zoom into an image. Possibly, with the previous installation of FastRawViewer, I had eGPU use assigned externally via the NVIDIA Control Panel.Anyhow, even though I have no idea what was the cause of the issue, I am happy to have FastRawViewer’s fastness back! reply It is slow now even with the It is slow now even with

Was not happy with its slow update cycles, making it difficult to use it when shooting with a new camera, and I always knew that I was looking at embedded JPEG images instead of real RAW files when assessing files.FastRawViewer SoftwareFastRawViewer changed all that. Not only is it far faster and more efficient than any other image culling software tool I have tried to date, but it is also very accurate for evaluating RAW images. With all other RAW viewers, I always wondered if my images were truly overexposed or not, so I had to leave the ones I doubted to be imported into Lightroom in order to see if they were salvageable. With FastRawViewer, I no longer have to do that – I can quickly decide whether an image is a keeper or not by looking at the accurate Histogram and I have other tools to assess image quality at 1:1 pixel level view. Camera updates happen even faster than Adobe’s and thankfully, I don’t have to spend upwards of $100 for all this!2) Download and Install FastRawViewerIf you have never used FastRawViewer before, go ahead and download a trial version for your PC or Mac from FastRawViewer.com (and if you want to purchase, a PL-exclusive 25% discount code is provided at the bottom of this article). Once it is downloaded, installing the software is super easy – just follow the on-screen instructions and you will be up and running within a couple of minutes.3) Culling Images Directly from Memory CardPreviously, my workflow used to rely on importing or copying images from my memory card into my computer. The main reason for that was speed – trying to view images from a memory card was a painfully slow and inefficient process. However, thanks to faster modern memory cards, FastRawViewer’s superb performance and its ability to read RAW files quickly and reliably, I started culling images directly from memory cards, which made it possible to eliminate bad images early on and only deal with images I truly need.In order to cull images from your memory card, all you have to do is insert your memory card, go into the folder where images are stored (typically something like “DCIM”), then right-click the first RAW image and select “Open with -> FastRawViewer”, as shown below:FastRawViewer will fire up, defaulting to its grid view:From here, select an image, then either double click it, or press “Enter” to view it. You will be presented with a screen that looks like the following:FastRawViewer makes it extremely easy to assess the quality of RAW images.

The eGPU connected, like super slow: After clicking on File in the menu bar, I have to wait several seconds for the menu to appear. Navigating into Preferences takes a lot of patience. reply Could you please answer the Could you please answer the question asked in our 1st reply: to which GPU you connect your display when using A2000? -- Alex Tutubalin/FastRawViewer team reply Sure! I use the display of my Sure! I use the display of my ThinkPad X1 Tablet 3rd gen. I don’t connect an external display. It is not necessary to use an external display with an eGPU, something which I didn’t know myself for quite a while. The eGPU sends its output back via Thunderbolt to the host. Anyhow, the slowness now also happens without eGPU. I assume a reinstall of FastRawViewer would fix the issue, like it did the last time. Slow is the whole UI. I tried changing the graphics engine from OpenGL to DirectX 11, but that had no effect on performance. It’s still super slow. reply If your display is connected If your display is connected to internal GPU: please force to use internal GPU with FastRawViewer (via NVidia control panel).Rendering on eGPU results in lot of extra overhead: data uploaded to eGPU, rendered on eGPU then rendering result transferred to iGPU and re-rendered on it in framebuffer (and all transfers are done via 4-lane-max thunderbolt connection). -- Alex Tutubalin/FastRawViewer team reply The slowness persists after The slowness persists after unplugging

FastRawViewer 2.0.4 Release

In FastRawViewer 1.7 we added:• Support for HEIC/HEIF File Formats (in 64-bit versions of Windows, and in regular (non-Legacy) versions for macOS)• XMP support for TIFF, PNG, HEIC/HEIF files• Linear View Mode - a New View Mode, "without beautifications"• Other/minor changes and bugfixesSupport for HEIC/HEIF File FormatsAttention: support for this formats is only accessible in the 64-bit version of Windows, and in regular (not Legacy) version for macOS.Starting with FastRawViewer 1.7, files with the HEIC (8 bit) and HEIF (10 bit) format are supported with the following limitations and specifications:Only real files of the indicated formats are supported, ones that have the format heic or heix (this is HEIF) recorded in the ftyp tag (box).The HEIC/HEIF files most widespread among photographers (taken with iPhone or Canon cameras) are supported.Support for this format is turned on by a checkbox in the HEIC/HEIF files support group in Preferences – File Formats (see the picture below).Other settings in this group:HEIC/HEIF files extensions (types): file extensions that FastRawViewer will recognize as HEIC/HEIFJoin RAW+HEIC: joins RAW and HEIC files with the same name (like it is for RAW+JPEG). If there is a RAW, HEIC, and JPEG, then RAW+JPEG will be joined.Prefer thumbnails in Grid/Filmstrip (faster): Apple HEIC files contain a small preview (320x240). If the size of the preview as set in FastRawViewer is bigger, then when setting this checkbox the preview embedded in the file will be zoomed to the size set in FastRawViewer. If the checkbox is unchecked, then the full size of the file will be used, and previews will be built fairly slowly.Settings in the Non-RAW decode priorities group: settings for individual HEIC/HEIF and for HEIC files in a group with RAW have been added, they work the same way as the settings for JPEGs.Color data: the built-in profile (which is in files from i-Devices) is supported, ITUR_2100_PQ_FULL (the profile for Canon files, which is identified by color tags) is supported. Other variants of color tags are not supported because of a lack of examples, files with other variants will be considered sRGB.When working with files from Apple devices (which are recorded in the Display P3 color space), it is recommended that one set Color space for Thumbnails: Display P3 in Preferences – Color Management (see the picture below), that way the color of the previews in the Filmstrip and Grid View mode will be more accurate.For HEIC/HEIF files, there are separate size limits set for displaying in one window and for previews, they are similar to those for TIFF and PNG: the size (in megapixels) of files displayed as a preview and in one window (see the picture below) is limited.The HEIC/HEIF decoder is multi-threaded, and is launched only when

FastRawViewer 2.0.2 Release

As you might already know, Lightroom is extremely slow when it comes to image culling. Although Adobe updated Lightroom CC to be able to fetch embedded JPEG previews from RAW files for the sole purpose of speeding up image culling, the process is still painfully slow when going through many images. In addition, looking at the embedded JPEG previews from the camera is far from ideal due to the fact that JPEG images do not contain enough information to be able to judge underexposure and overexposure. On top of that, if one has particular color, sharpness and other settings set on their camera, those settings could seriously impact JPEG previews and lie about what’s actually contained within the RAW file. In order to avoid such issues and move away from Lightroom’s horrid performance, I have completely moved my image culling process to FastRawViewer. Thanks to this lightweight and powerful software, I am able to cruise through hundreds of images and select the ones that I will import and edit, while making sure that bad images never make it into my post-processing software in the first place.Table of ContentsImage Culling: FastRawViewer vs LightroomDownload and Install FastRawViewerCulling Images Directly from Memory CardCulling Images From Local StorageImporting Starred and Color-Labeled ImagesFastRawViewer PL Discount1) Image Culling: FastRawViewer vs LightroomAs a long time Lightroom user, I have been extremely frustrated with its lack of performance, even on the fastest PC I can build. While I can understand that software can be slow when doing the actual editing (since it is a complicated process that might require a lot of computer resources), going through images, zooming in and out them and starring / color-labeling them should not be as painful as it currently is in Lightroom. Adobe has been promising to make Lightroom faster, but its overall performance seems to only be decreasing with each new release, which is unfortunate. To make the process of culling images in Lightroom faster, Adobe updated Lightroom CC to be able to show JPEG images embedded into RAW files, so that one does not have to wait for each file to get re-rendered with the “Loading” notification that takes forever to clear. However, even after this feature was rolled out in Lightroom CC, I still encountered a lot of slow downs when doing basic operations, such as moving between different RAW files.In short, as of today, Lightroom is simply an inefficient piece of software for image culling. Because of this, many photographers rely on third party software such as Photo Mechanic and ACDSee for basic image culling and file management. For years, I relied on using ACDSee for image culling and I was relatively happy with its performance. However, I

Actually displaying these files. If you don't have any, no additional resources are used.In principle, it is possible to fine-tune the efficiency of the decoder (number of threads, number of decoders), but (according to our tests) the default values work well for computers with between 2 and 18 CPU Cores.XMP support for TIFF, PNG, HEIC/HEIF filesAt one time, when developing FastRawViewer 1.5, we were unable to find (other) programs that supported XMP sidecar files for TIFF and PNG formats. Modifying the graphic files themselves (by recording an embedded XMP block) would go against the basic concept of "read-only." As a result, XMP support for TIFF/PNG was not implemented.At the same time, if one uses FastRawViewer as the main/sole manager of graphic files, XMP support may be convenient (for example, for sorting/filtering by ratings/labels). As such, in version 1.7 XMP support can be turned on separately for each of the TIFF, PNG, HEIC/HEIF formats. This is done through Preferences – XMP.For TIFF/PNG/HEIC files, the XMP stores the ratings, labels, Title/Description, rotation.Linear View Mode - a New View Mode, "without Beautifications"Preamble:As many know, by default FastRawViewer applies the following beautifications when displaying RAW:S-shaped tone curve, which increases the contrast in the middle toneAdobe compatible' midtone correction (in most cases, this raises it)With these (default) settings, the RAW display becomes more or less "as expected", correlating to the embedded JPEG and standard Adobe rendition (with all sliders in default positions) in both contrast and brightness.Both settings can be turned off in the Preferences:Image Display tab: set the "Contrast curve type" to one of the standard colorimetric curves (this results in contrast change settings being disabled)Exposure tab: turn off "Apply Adobe hidden exposure correction"As a result, you will have a flat, non-contrasty look, which corresponds to what the camera records into the RAW much more accurately. Furthermore, this look can be set into an XMP, (see here: so that Adobe Camera Raw /Lightroom use this look as the starting point, without introducing highlight clipping and contrast of their own.Main BodyChanging between flat and regular view modes through the settings is uncomfortable, so we've implemented a quick way:Menu - View - "Linear mode display" (or Shift-L): temporarily turns on (and then turns off) the Gamma 2.2 contrast curvePreferences - Image Display - "Ignore exposure correction/baseline exposure in linear mode" will also cancel all exposure corrections (both manual and hidden)This way you can quickly and accurately assess what are the tones in this shot.This hotkey does nothing if "Contrast curve type" is set to fixed curve, because it's fixed anyway, and you can turn exposure correction off by pressing the 'A' hotkey.Finally, when yet another button was added to the "USM E D S H" block
