I've just installed the trial version of Thumbs Plus and I'm pretty impressed so far. It allows me to sort RAW files by ISO setting (or any of several other parameters) and does batch conversions to TIFF or JPEG nicely.
I also tried ACDSee. It requires an optional plug-in (which costs an additional $39.00) to handle RAW files. The base version does display thumbnails of RAW files but the color is all wonky so I'm not sure about their RAW conversion. (You can evaluate a trial version of ACDSee itself for free but you can't get the plug-in for evaluation so there's no way to tell how good it is without plunking down your money.) The new version of Bibble (v4.0) is my favorite in terms of usability so far, but it won't sort by ISO setting or other meta data (unless I've just missed this option - always a possibility). Anyone have any other software suggestions that I should try before spending my money? -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
