I use Fast Stone (somewhat comparable to WheezeBrowser) for quick viewing
but have an right-click action-thingie to open the image in Bridge if I
want to go further. FS makes some auto changes for viewing purposes which
are misleading. Sometimes the raw image looks worse and sometimes better.
Passing it through Bridge is a reality check of sorts. Once I am in the
area I want to be in Bridge, FS has done its job.
On the subject of ACR vs Viewer -- ACR has gotten SO much better in recent
years that, while I used to use Viewer exclusively, I can't live with its
blocky highlights now. I will have to give Viewer 3 a run, however. The
E-620 holds highlights pretty well. I sometimes miss real Olympus reds.
