I've tried what seems like all the image viewers I could find that will run native in OS X. My impression of all of them has been less than enthusiastic. In fact I've thought they were all terrible - as viewers. Some of them did a few interesting things, but they all suffered from very poor interface design. Even the award-winning (and my personal favorite for Windows) ACDSee was a pretty shabby effort, IMO. I want (need) something that approaches the level of viewing capabilities of ACDSee for Windows (even something at the level of ACDSee 3.1). When I click on an image in the finder, I want to have it show up in a viewer window at its original (non-scaled) size.

• Faststone Image Viewer For Mac

I want to have some controls for easily panning the image around (cursor keys would be nice), zooming in and out, one-key to fit-to-window, one key to go to next image in the same folder/path, key for previous, etc. I'd like this without having to have a seperate file-browser window open. ACDSee for Mac OS, unlike the Windows version, seems to always want to treat viewer windows seperately from the browser window. It won't close the browser (or replace it with the image) when double-clicking an image. And I've found no way to configure it to behave the way I'd like. It's not a very good mirror of the functionality that established their Windows product as the best-of-platform. Do I hear any suggestions?

The built-in helper in Previewer in Mac OS X is simply unusable for anything in my opinion, so that's obviously out of the question. I faced the same dilemma some months ago.

I went through every viewer application I could find and bought most of them, in search for a Mac equivalent to Windoze's ACD See. I have iView Media Pro, ACD See v1.65, Portfolio 6.1, Curator, and Graphic Converter. While I have several issues with it, I've determined that Graphic Converter is the best choice for a viewer for me. Download an evaluation copy. I think you'll buy it. It'll do what you want, but you'll not like it as well as ACD See for Windoze. Such is life.

It will read any document that's readable in Photoshop. If it's not readable in Photoshop, I'm not working with it anyway. I have no problem with the preview feature in OSX, except that it will not read 16 bit tiffs.

The browse feature in Photoshop lets you read each file, shows the exif data, and shows a slightly larger thumbnail. To view it full size, open in Photoshop. Works for me.

Others may want more features, but I just want to be able to check out my image files. TwistedMelon wrote: I've tried what seems like all the image viewers I could find that will run native in OS X.

Hi, I'm also coming from Window and deeply missed the facility of Thumb Plus for which I never found any equivalent in Macs. I've been using Canto Cumulus, but it isn't as easy to view pictures with it and it can be very slow. However, recently I've found Iview Media Pro and think it is great and offers me approximatively the same as thumb plus did for window. What I like is that it allows you to edit the pictures you have just taken rapidly, extracting the JPG from the raw files; then you can view the pictures in three different way: a list, a collection of thumbs or one by one and as you click on the arrows it would become like a slide show. You have the possibility to view the EXIF information (although not all, or I didn't find how) and to anotate the picture, to give them keywords or categories.

I don't think that it makes slideshows which you could give away to friends with a runtime version. But there is a little applescript which is quite convenient (for osx): as you drop a folder on it, it makes a pages, which you can view in Internet explorer: you have the mame of the pictures in a left frame and when you click on the names, the pictures shows in the main frame.

In my not so humble opinion, it sucks. It has virtually no preferences. It clutters the window with a bunch of controls I don't need nor ever want to see. It doesn't display the info I DO want to see (such as magnification ratio).

Seperate viewer and browser? What were they thinking? It's an attempt at copying ACDSee, but they failed to bring over everything that made ACDSee great. I totally agree. It's definately the best browser that I've seen and very full featured, it's had many years of refinement and the author is not slowing down one bit!

One recommendation, before you use it to view pictures and browse folders - be meticulous about going through EVERY preference in the program. It's default set-up is set to modify many different aspects of your files as you view them, not bad changes but things you should be aware of!

I have downloaded the Ulead viewer. I think that Iphoto is much better and it doesn't cost anything. The, too, if you are using PS 7 it has some very powerful features too, Iview media pro or whatever is a 2.5mb programe selling for $50-$90. Somehow I cxan't see paying any money for this little program. Maybe $10.00 as a shareware fee.
