I am having a problem with viewing my new Olympus E-M1-II raw files. I would like to view them in MS Pictures format before transferring them to Lightroom as I have done with my Nikon pictures. I have not been successful in using new Codecs.
Is there an replication for something I can do to view a group of Olympus Raw files. I do not seen to be very successful with the Olympus software.
Thanks for your advice.

Have download their very latest processing software (February or after Feburary this year)? And have you uploaded the latest firmware to your camera?

You can get FastStone Image Viewer for free. It is my go to for viewing raw from any camera. I have never had a camera that it did not handle. When I got my MII, FS did not need an update to view the raw files.
But, why not just import the photos into LR? Once you do, you view them and mark for delete or move on to next (X then Right Arrow for delete; Right Arrow for keep). After you have marked all the deletes, then Ctrl-Backspace. When LR asks to remove from catalog or delete from disk, choose delete. Done.

Indeed, FastStone is great. Olympus Workspace is also not a bad RAW editor

Olympus has no codec to view the images from their cameras. Fast Stone image viewer is a free software that allows to see those RAW files.
If you decide to use it they consider very nice any donation.

FastPictureViewer worker just fine. Thank you everyone for your recommendations. This is such a great group.
I am posting another question that has to do with Olympus and possibility other manufacturers I will post separately. I may be more difficult.
