|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Help with canon g10 raw files in windows explorer Harrison Shull, Photographer Fayetteville, WV | Asheville, NC | | Posted: 10:34 PM on 07.30.09 ->> I recently got a G10. I am running Windows XP. The RAW files from the G10 come up in Windows Explorer along with my 5D files. But I cannot see the thumbnails of the G10 images like I can the 5D in Windows Explorer. This is a hassle. I checked the forum search function here at SS and came up dry. There is no Q&A for the G10. I searched Google and found what I thought was the solution - I needed a RAW Codec from Canon (ver 1.5.0)(http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=Downlo... I downloaded and installed this but it did not help. I am sure that there is some little bit of software updating that I need to do but I am not having any luck finding it. I am hopeful that the good ol' trusty SS forum turns up someone that has already been thru this before and can show me the light. Thanks!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I am searching online for a fix but thought I'd see if others here had run into this.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I had problems with an S3 several years ago, could see photos on camera and computer info SAID there was data but nothing would download. I used the disc that came with the camera and everything straightened out. Oh, and I never had to use the disc software again. Sounds weird but it worked.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I have LR and DPP for processing and they work fine with the G10 once properly updated. I just can't get a folder of images to reveal G10 thumbnails in the explorer window in Windows XP. It is not the end of the world, but it is proving inconvenient with the way I sort images from my 5D.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I'm pretty sure that since the .CR2 or .CRW types are propietary that windows doesn't know how to read them. open the folder in bridge, photomechanic or another software package that uses it's own software to interpret the raw file and you should be able to see the thumbnail.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

If anyone has a solution for that, I'd love to hear it.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh? (0) | Off Topic (0) | Inappropriate (0) |   Definitions Add your comments...
