I have always used DPP 3 and it was excellent and fast. It turns out that DPP 4 is so slow to open the new .CR3 files making it impossible to make the selection of photos from a shooting session (check photos when similar (sharp, focus, etc) to delete, etc.).
What do you recommend for a quick opening of photos for selection / comparison between them before starting really editing in Lightroom?
I can't believe how Canon did DPP4 so much worse than DPP3!
Share your experience!
I use ACDSee ... but you will have to check it has support for the latest Canon raw files

I will try it for sure, thanks!!
I think DPP4 is great, maybe it depends on what machine you're running it on, and maybe there is a support issue for the 'R' files - just guessing there though.
That said, I always use Photo Mechanic to view the files before import - a great and really fast program that gets rid of the rubbish files prior to downloading them to your RAW converter

Photo Mechanic looks amazing, will give it a try!
Look at Breezebrowser Pro, it is very fast for reviewing and you can do a fully functional 30 day trial. I use it and have the preview quality set to highest. It is purely a reviewing program - I wouldn't use it for raw conversions. It's Windows only

I will have a second vote for Fast Raw Viewer. I just finished my trial and I will be buying the software with a smile next time I need to sue it.
