Re: Dimage Viewer 2.37 and RAW files

Update to anybody who read my first post:  Tonight I made a new RAW photo just for a test.  Unexpectedly, I got an image in Windows Explorer, and another box beside it as a placeholder, with a THM label.  That one has the Dimage Viewer icon.  My missing RAW photos show up with a THM label in Windows Explorer.  I just can't do anything with them.  But this test turned out differently.

I opened Dimage Viewer and went to the folder with that test photo, and it showed up in DV also.  I clicked to open it and Dimage Viewer opened the editing panel for a RAW photo.  I was surprised.  It actually worked.  The photo looked ok so I clicked ok and saved it as a Jpeg.  That was the first RAW photo I have worked with.  I still don't understand why the six or seven RAW photos I made Monday while out hiking didn't show up in Dimage Viewer.   After that first test photo, I made four more, and they showed up too in Dimage Viewer.  I guess that problem is done.  As of now, I can't use the Adobe converter, but I can use Dimage Viewer.  That is good.  At least I can do something with RAW photos.  I want to experiment  with that format and see how it goes.  Too bad those RAW photos I made out in the boonies won't show up, but I made a bunch in Jpeg extra fine, and a couple in Tiff.  All those are ok.  I'll try more of this RAW format.
