"Simple, powerul, quick image viewer/editor"
Pros
I've not felt so good about a piece of software in a long time. This application is truly amazing in the number of formats it supports, the flexibility of use, and most importantly the price. Now don't get me wrong, the Photoshop Creative Suite is the defacto standard when it comes to digital imaging, but this application is a bit more like Adobe's Bridge. Bridge is a tool for quickly viewing , copying, and/or moving the images from your memory card. However, it is not available for the PC. And even if it were the price would be out of the reach of most users. This tool works a lot like Bridge in that it gives you all of the pertinent information you need to decide in you want bring in heavier equipment to alter the image. It has a host of tools that allow you to modify the EXIF data, remove red eye, adjust levels and contrast, and resize; just to name a few. It has a list of effects that can be applied to images as well such as blur, sharpen, swirl, shear, and tile. And best of all it's free to use for non-commercial work! For all you photo buffs out there I strongly urge you to give this app a test drive.
