S5is Raw files are only 1649X1239 and 9MB in size

I have allbest CHDK version allbest-s5is-101b-51-444 installed and have just shot some RAW files and noticed something very strange. I viewed the CRW files in XnView and the JPG's are 3264X2448 but the CRW RAW files are only 1649X1239. I then converted the CRW files using DNG4PS-2 0.2.2 and also DNG4PS-2 0.2.3 Beta build 56 and the resulting DNG files are also 1649X1239. Can anybody tell me whats going on ?

Thanks

It looks like XnView shows wrong size

Yes Your right it seems it was Xnview, I've since changed to faststone Image viewer and it much better and faster than Xnview.

There's a setting in XNView for this in Tools--Options--View--Misc.: "Camera RAW" [Thumbnail / Half Size / Full Size]

Actually it was here for me as that was already on full size in  my XnView, thats what threw me. And it makes XnView so slow at viewing RAW files it's a joke. I have since tried Fastone image viewer and when you view RAW files Fastone is 5-10 times faster. But thanks anyway.

Nice - there are 2 settings im XNView: one for the picture view (mine) and one for the browser preview (yours), i think this will slow it down...but i agree with you, the Faststone Viewer is great stuff and it's faster than XNView (on my A64-3400 ~25-50%)...
