jthurber’s weblog has posted a quick and dirty review of Canon’s new EOS Viewer Utility, which is their replacement for the pretty terrible File Viewer Utility (FVU). jthurber is pleasantly surprised by how good the new software actually is at converting your RAW files, when compared with Capture One and Adobe Photoshop CS RAW (found via alexking.org):

“Personally I’m planning to get C1 (the workflow piece is really slick), but that purchase will come sometime after a 1D Mark II (priorities ya’ know). For the present I’m planning to use EOS Viewer for most of RAW conversions. I’m as surprised by this as anyone, as the original File Viewer Utility was pretty bad! “
