I seem to recall there was a discussion about Image Viewers some time ago.
As I work with large files (avg. 70Mb~90Mb), a good and fast viewer is an essential tool for me. So I found this:
XnView 1.66
Can be found at: http://www.xnview.com/
It’s thumbnail display is fairly fast and it can output file listings: a text file containing some basic data about the selected files. Also, it supports a HUGE number of formats, can do batch conversion, batch renames, can capture screen shots, do slide shows, output contact sheets, scan images. It also has some filters that work as you’d expect them to. No software color proofing, though (and that’s about the only drawback I can think of). All in all, a fairly complete solution for most pros.
I used IrfanView for a while, but it was too darn slow for me (I’m using a Celleron @ 1GHz w/256Mb RAM). Sure, I need to upgrade my PC, which I will do soon, but XnView works nicely even on the current machine.
