He has pretty much been able to live off the program.Ī top feature of Irfanview is its powerful batch conversion-rename utility. Yes, Irfanview has always been free, though Irfan Škiljan does accept donations and sells the product when used for commercial use. Either way, the list of Irfanview tools, features, functions, and tricks is impressive. If you’ve never heard of it, it’s time you did. If so, you might learn some new tricks it can do now that you didn’t know about. It could be that you’ve used it in the past, but have forgotten about it. (Especially considering that since 2003 it’s been downloaded over a million times each month.) If you have been involved in digital photography for a long time, you may already be familiar with Irfanview. (Providing you work on a PC, sorry Mac users, this one’s not available for you unless perhaps you use a Windows emulator). If you could only have one digital photography tool to work with, I daresay this might be the one you’d want. Not only has Irfanview been around for 23 years, like the Swiss Army knife, but it also is small, compact, can fit on, and even be run from a thumb drive and performs more functions than I’ll even be able to cover here. I would venture that some of the readers of this article weren’t yet born. To put that into perspective, the first commercially successful consumer digital camera, the Apple Quicktake 100, was introduced in 1994. This little do-all program is the brainchild of student Irfan Škiljan, from Jajce, Bosnia/Herzegovina, who first introduced the program in 1996. Such is the case with the utility program Irfanview.

Irfanview is like a Swiss Army Knife – Lots of tools in one compact package.
