People sorting through photo folders, checking downloaded images, or reading digital comics need a viewer that opens files without a separate extraction step. Honeyview is Bandisoft’s image viewer, with direct archive browsing, animation playback, and batch conversion tools.
Photo folders, formats, and metadata
Honeyview displays common formats such as JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, PSD, WebP, and DDS. It also supports camera RAW files, including DNG, CR2, NEF, ORF, and RAF. This range lets users browse everyday photos and many camera images in the same viewer.
For JPEG files, the viewer can show EXIF details, including GPS information when that data is present in the image. Animated GIF and WebP files play as animations; Honeyview also supports animated PNG and BPG.
Can it open image archives directly?
Yes. Honeyview can display images stored in ZIP, RAR, 7Z, LZH, TAR, CBR, and CBZ archives without first extracting them. Comic readers can open CBZ and CBR collections and move through their included pages in the viewer. The same archive browsing works for image collections packaged in the other supported archive formats.
Batch conversion and everyday browsing
The batch image conversion feature can resize images as part of the conversion task, which suits a folder of pictures that needs consistent output dimensions. For simple review, Honeyview’s image-viewing workflow keeps browsing and file conversion close at hand without requiring a separate image editor for those tasks.
Supported still-image formats also include JXR, J2K, JP2, TGA, PCX, PGM, PNM, PPM, and BPG. Opening a photo folder or an archive therefore provides access to a broad assortment of raster and camera formats.
