Irfanview rotates images automatically for any file that contains that
information, K20D and K-5II files show the proper orientation, *ist-D
and Ds files do not. If you click on the thumbnail when using the
thumbnail viewer, it will automatically open the image in the main
Irfanview window, left and right arrow keys let you browse through the
folder in the main viewer.
You can do some editing in the viewer. I believe that Doug Brewer even
used to use it for raw processing, it doesn't offer a lot of control
but it can be used for that.
I also have a utility integrated with my desktop that allows PEF and DNG
files to be directly viewed in folders, I can't remember where I got it,
the link seems to have disappeared, third party since Pentax and
Microsoft don't support XP with the latest products.
I don't know about the other two programs but one nice thing about
Irfanview is that you can customize the size of the thumbnails in the
thumbnail viewer.

Ok Guys -
I got three candidates here..
The key thing for me is...
see list of folders by their folder names
open a folder - view thumbnails
view the first one large, then hit the right arrow on my keyboard
to click through them one at a time with -keyboard- arrow
- like a slide show but moving to next image on my command, not timed.
I presume all three suggested run on XP?
I don't need it to do anything else, except possibly rotate the view.
It would be especially useful if I can view canon raw files as well
as DNGS, PEFS if possible.. but if it only does jpgs that is ok.
I'm pretty sure FastStone Image Viewer meets all your requirements.
I'm also pretty sure InfanView doesn't. I'm not certain how xnview is
with raw files.
FastStone is what Doug and I use at Grandfather Mountain for the
presentations. It's free but very good.
