IrfanView

IrfanView is the latest version of the well-known and widely appreciated image viewer. This software can be most certainly found on the computers of people who are somehow connected with photography – photographers, editors – and who have large archives of photographs saved on their hard disks. Thanks to IrfanView, we can quickly and easily catalogue large numbers of folders, change the names of files, create new folders and move photographs from one folder to another. Of course, it allows also for viewing photographs saved as RAW.This image viewer allows also for preliminary photo edition. Among others we have such options as cropping, reduction of the red eyes (which is the result of the inappropriate usage of the flash lamp), color saturation, white balance change, and so on. Another interesting option here is the possibility to change the resolution of several files at once.IrfanView may be used not only to view images, but also to capture photographs from memory cards or directly from digital cameras. Additionally, we can integrate this viewer with the scanner.Moreover, we can improve the functionality of this application installing additional plug-ins, which are easily accessible on the Internet. By doing this, we can change our image viewer into a multimedia viewer, and use it to overview not only photographs, but also movies and music.Certainly, this is one of the most interesting image viewers available to the users and it will be able to satisfy even the most demanding users.
