    Canon RAW (CR2) file issues

    Greetings,

    2 minor bugs noticed in handling Canon RAW (CR2) files.

    1) When opening, the image is displayed at a much smaller dimension size than the original, and when saving as a jpeg, it won't save at the full resolution of the original file. As an example, a file from a Canon 5D measures 4368x2912 pixels. When viewing the thumbnail in Windows Explorer, it reports the dimension at 2496x1664 pixels. When opened in Infranview, it reports the same smaller file dimensions and when saved, also, saves at the 2496x1664 pixel size.

    2) Canon's 40D RAW (CR2) files are having some displaying and conversion issues, particularly in the smoothness of gradients such as subtle color shifts in the skies. The images look "blotchy" and pixelized. Not sure if this is a 14-Bit to 8-Bit conversion issue, or something in the resampling method as noted above. The images convert to jpeg using Canon's DPP software just fine without causing the blotchy/pixelized color shifts, so I know it wasn't an issue with the camera and/or original image.

    Regards and Thank You for all the years of development.
