Second IE10 platform preview available for developers

IE10 Platform Preview 2, the same HTML5 engine seen in the recent public “Windows 8” demos, is now available for download. With this update, IE10 continues to deliver support for site-ready HTML5 technologies as well as improving performance. IE10 continues IE9’s precedent of enabling Web applications to do more in the browser without plug-ins. It also continues the pattern of offloading work to the parts of a PC that are best suited for them, like the GPU for graphics, and different processor cores for background compilation of JavaScript.

Now view and edit RAW image files in Windows

You can’t view RAW image files in Windows Photo Gallery and no preview in Windows Explorer, because no native support for RAW images in Windows. RAW files are a camera specific file format to record loss-less images by DSLR cameras. The RAW files are very big may be 500MB or more, sometimes more than GBs.

Now Microsoft came up with a solution to view/preview/edit RAW files in Windows natively with the camera codec for Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems. So now you can view and edit RAW files without using additional software.

The codec released today will bring support for more than 120 cameras to the Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011 as well as Windows Explorer for previewing. But the edited images can’t be saved in RAW formats, but will saved as JPEG or JPEG-XR formats.

Download the Camera Codec from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=26829. Both 32bit and 64bit versions are available. Check your camera model supported by the codec before download.
