FastPictureViewer is an image viewer designed for photographers, helping to review digital photos faster than ever before.

It displays shooting data (shutter speed, f-stop, ISO, exposure compensation) and RGB histogram in seamless floating windows. It features a built-in program launcher, all in a slick and uncluttered user interface. A tethering function is also available and works with all cameras fully compatible with the MTP/PTP transfer protocol, including most Nikon and recent Canon DSLRs.

The software supports fast previewing of raw image formats such as Nikon NEF, Canon CR2, Panasonic RW2, Olympus ORF, and Adobe DNG through manufacturer-supplied or 3rd party image decoders. Standard image formats are supported, such as TIFF/MTIFF, JPEG, HD Photo, PNG, GIF, BMP, and ICO.

The program has been translated into several Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish. Thanks to its support for the Unicode standard, it can browse folders, and images and names can be written in any language. FastPictureViewer is among the firsts of a new breed of hardware accelerated desktop applications and delivers unprecedented speed and ease of use.

This software will help you speed up your digital workflow!

NOTE: Free for personal use ONLY. The program reverts to the free Home Basic Edition when the trial expires, which can be used indefinitely with great JPEG and HD Photo support but tethered shooting, raw image formats viewing. External decoder support will be turned off until you enter a license key (the image decoders will continue to function for other Windows applications and Windows Explorer for as long as you keep them installed).
