Hello all,
as incredible as it may sound to all of you (and also to me BTW), a small cam2pc update is under the works. For the moment I have added:
- decoding of ISO rating for latest Canon cameras (including S3 IS)
- support for
SimpleViewer galleries creation. You can check one sample of such a generated gallery
here
I would like to add other fixes that you may list in this thread. As stated before, I do not have the same amount of time to spend on cam2pc but this update won't do bad to anyone so I will try to spend as much energy as possible to get some bugs fixed with this 4.5.3 release.
I am also thinking of adding
flickr image upload in cam2pc but do not hold your breath.
Regards,
nabocorp

Wow, welcome back! It's good to see you are still alive and kicking! I think most of us had thought that cam2pc was dead - I'm glad we were wrong.

Dont know whether this is a bug or not but I cant see CR2 (Canon Raw) files in the preview pane. Thumbnails appear OK. Have installed the Canon-specific update but to no avail.
Good to see you back on the forums. Would hate to see Cam2PC disappear.

stephenjd,
I have two CR2 files that I use for my testing and they both show fine in the Preview pane. Maybe you can send me a file that does not show by mail: info at nabocorp.com so I can see what is going on.
Regards,
nabocorp

As Cam2PC is still the best viewer ever tried, I just have only one wish... the support of PENTAX *ist Ds RAW files (PEF) :D :?:

I have the same problem with the RAW files from the Canon 350d
Can see the images in thumbnail view but not in preview.
I will send you a file for test.

My ideas to an updated version: folder manager and straighten image as in picasa.

No problems with cam2pc. On the contrary, it's the best viewer (and much more) I ever had. I am very glad with the announced update. I was already for months looking for an alternative for cam2pc - without success
Nico :D

I am so glad to see that you are back! I have not been able to find anything that quite replaces Cam2PC.
One issue that I have is that the colors do not display properly on a NEF file that is produced by a Nikod D70s. It appears that two (or more) of the color channels is swapped. I believe that the NEF files from a D70 work properly and that there was a minor change in the NEF from a D70s. Let me know if you need an example file and I can get one to you.
Thanks!

I would like to see an update which will properly decode ISO setting for Nikon D70 - it's written in non-standard, Nikon-specific field.
If You work on ISO setting for Canon, maybe it's good opportunity to make both changes at one time.
If You want, I can provide some samples and additional info.
Nice to see You again :)

Hi, nabocorp:
1.- Nikon NEF format looks ok in thumb mode but in fullscreen the image has incorrect colour.
2.- No JPEG lossless rotate, the date change when I rotate the image.
Thanks in advance.

Hello all,
could you send me Nikon NEF files that do not show up correctly and D70 files so I can check the ISO stuff?
Thanks,
nabocorp

* Fixed EXIF Maker Notes decoding for latest Nikon cameras (incl. D70)
* Updated RAW decoding library for more cameras support
* Fixed Advanced Renaming when using exposure time

The download URL is (shareware only):
http://www.nabocorp.com/cam2pc/4.5.3/cam2pc-setup.exe
If no major feedback is given this will be probably officially released by sunday...
Regards,
nabocorp
PS: BTW, flickr rejected my request to get a key to be allowed to use their API. That's why Zenphoto upload is included in this release!
