"Microsoft has today made their RAW Image Thumbnailer and Viewer PowerToy available for download. This utility provides for viewing of Canon (CRW & CR2) RAW and Nikon (NEF) RAW files as well as TIFF images and other standard image formats (BMP, GIF, PNG, JPEG etc.). The utility is split into a Windows XP shell extension which provides preview / edit / print commands for RAW files as well as a RAW viewer application. It weighs in as a 47 MB download! "

Harry, just curious as to why you didn’t post the Microsoft origin download. Not available there?

Note that

(A) It is a 47 MegaByte download … Dial-up users need not apply!

(B) It requires the (Dot)Net infrastructure to be installed on your computer, and it will install it if it is not present.

Three reasons
1. I thought you might be interested in the description of the viewer on that page
2. As I only became aware of the existence of the viewer because of Digital Photography Review,
I thought it only right to give them as the link.
3. I did not checkout the download link!!!
