A very special iView Multimedia user makes these comments.

I've always preferred bits to atoms. But my Mac started looking like
my photo shoebox - stuff everywhere. I don't need overkill. I simply
need an easy-to-use, powerful, "shoebox" organizer for my
photorealistic renderings, hi-res textures, and even digital photos
of my family vacation. iView Multimedia is my solution.

Multimedia also supports Camera Bits Photo Mechanic and Camera Bits

through Camera Bits Photo Mechanic or AP Viewer software will be
especially happy with the new features in iView Multimedia 3.6."
