While I don't carry around a video display device, these two sentences started me thinking. I don't know about PEF, but DNGs have a full-size (but wretched for compression) JPEG in them, and these can be directly extracted. draw -e *.dng works from the command line just fine, and I'm sure there are other ways to do this. Which gives me a really useful, yeah, that's the whole screen size (which is a quarter of the actual image size, so the JPEG compression isn't an issue) thumbnail to go through and have opinions about which of these is worth actually processing. Is there a widespread sense that you're stuck actually processing all the raw images, or at least firing up the full converter application, to get some sense of what your pictures might look like? -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
