right, a workaround is to use embedded image in Settings>Read>CameraRAW

While the camera does not seem to be supported by LibRaw yet, the main FOSS raw editors - RawTherapee, ART and darktable - can already handle this format. (With no LensFun support for this lens.)

Hello Pierre,
thank you. At least I can now see the picture in low resolution.
However, it's still not enough for me to decide whether the image is good enough or to delete it.

It would be nice if further updates would show the RAW file in full resolution, especially after pixel shift.

Nevertheless, thanks for the great software itself.

Hello mudo_j,
thanks for the information.
I have already tried Rawtherapy and darktable. I always went to the programs via XnView MP because opening them via the path input is too inconvenient for me.
I don't know ART, I'll look for it online, and I don't know the term FOSS either.

Greetings, Frank
