Thanks: Gave 63, Got 49 | D300 RAW preview images?
So used to viewing a preview of my images in CS3 bridge but since upgrading to the D300 I cant do that  Downloading the updates now but unsure if this will allow viewing a preview in Bridge. What are you guys using to preview images.

Thanks John, the D300 came with NX but never used it before, guess I'm so used to Bridge.
Will install NX and see what I think.

Jon | That is true - I think that offer ends next month. However, ViewNX is free and a lot quicker that Capture if you just want to review your RAW files.

View NX is a sorting tool, like bridge.
Capture NX is the editing suite like Cs 2/3 etc.

The default that shipped with CS3 didn't support the D300. I could be talking rubbish though as Bridge possibly reads the small jpg embedded in the RAW file. In which case I'm not sure why yours doesn't work.
As others have mentioned, highly recommend using ViewNX as well. I'm sure a lot of people complaining about the speed of CaptureNX have never used it. It's a decent tool for sorting out the good shots before loading them into Capture for processing proper.

Got it to work after a few updates, although it doesnt preview all of the RAW files that I had just saved to disc, its no worries though.
Thanks for the assistance all.
