I wonder if my question belongs to the business of photography section or presentation section. Anyways, I was asked by a client that whether I can show the photos on a monitor right after shooting for him to pick and choose. I primarily shoot in raw (1d/1ds) and the only software has preview function I have is CS3's bridge. But it is way to buggie and slow. Is there any simply raw file slide show/display software will also display the camera file name on screen? I heard about LR 2.0. Does it have the function I look for?

Thanks,

Yes, Lightroom will do it but you will also need to install EOS Viewer.

Adobe Bridge also shows raw files.

Won't the canon software that came with your camera allow for this too?

Thanks, all.
Bridge is too buggie and slow.
I never actually looked into/used the canon software once. Just got a LR 2. Looks good.
