Microsoft Hearts RAW
October 19, 2006: If you have a Window’s computer and like to view your photos using File Explorer, you can view your JPEGS, but not your RAW files, as thumbnails.
That is, not unless you know about Microsoft’s free RAW Image Thumbnailer and Viewer add-in. According to The House That Bill Built:
RAW image capture is preferred by many serious-minded photographers to preserve all the subtle color and detail possible from digital cameras. However, until now it has been impossible to view thumbnails and previews for RAW images in Windows without use of special software.
The Microsoft RAW Image Thumbnailer and Viewer enhances the Windows XP photos experience by providing thumbnails, previews, printing, and metadata display for RAW images from most Canon and Nikon digital cameras. This tool enables advanced digital photographers to organize and work with RAW files directly in Windows Explorer in much the same way as with JPEG images. No more guessing which image is which!
Version 1.0 build 50 of the RAW Image Thumbnailer and Viewer supports most models of Canon and Nikon cameras capable of RAW capture, including the latest professional models such as the Canon EOS 5D and Nikon D2x. (A complete list of supported cameras is provided in the readme file and in the related white paper.)

As important as the number of megapixels a camera has
is the character of its lens — even if a small camera
were 10Mp, if the lens were a small size (a small glass
area) then the needed resolution just won’t be there.
This is also the reason, by the by, why the megapixel
race in cameras is now coming to an end. For cameras
like Canons and Nikons and such, it’s no longer the
megapixel sensor size which is becoming the most
limiting factor, but rather what the lenses themselves
can resolve. As such, don’t much count on seeing
these cameras go above 20Mp in size, save and expect
for reasons of possible marketing hype.
