This application focuses on ease of use and speed, removing all the lag your culling workflow.Īll ratings are saved directly to the RAW file, so when you are done culling, you can import the remaining photos into Lightroom (or any other software) and all the ratings will show up. You can view, rate, manage, and delete all your RAW photos straight out of camera without requiring conversion or importing, allowing you to get to editing your best photos as fast as possible. DNG files created from the Adobe DNG Converter© will often generate geometric distortion tags for micro 4/3rds cameras.RAW Viewer is a desktop app which allows you to quickly cull your photos. However, you can then use the ACDSee Pro Develop tools to process the RAW image to use your preferred settings.ĪCDSee will automatically apply geometry corrections to DNG files that include geometric distortion correction tags. Since different camera models apply different color, light, and detail settings to embedded JPEGs, these settings do not always match the settings used by ACDSee. This is due to a difference between the settings applied by your camera to the JPEG and the settings used by ACDSee Pro to develop the image. When View mode changes the display from the embedded JPEG to the decoded RAW image, you might see a change in the color, light, or detail of the image.

When you zoom in on your undeveloped RAW image in View mode, if you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG option, and if you zoom past the resolution of the embedded JPEG, ACDSee Pro quickly develops the RAW image so that you can see the image at that zoom level. If you have selected the Quality: Perform high quality decode checkbox on the General tab, ACDSee Pro quickly develops the RAW file and displays a temporary photo of the RAW file.If you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG checkbox on the General tab of the Options dialog box, ACDSee Pro displays the embedded JPEG, created by your camera when you took the photo.If you have not, ACDSee Pro does one of the following:

If you have, ACDSee Pro displays the developed photo in View mode. When you double-click the thumbnail of a RAW image in Manage mode, ACDSee Pro checks to see if you have previously developed the RAW file. The same as with a negative, it is necessary to develop your RAW file to view the photo. When your camera takes the photo, it captures all the raw data that makes up the image and it includes an embedded JPEG so that you can preview the image.
