Hello

I usually get two images which should be identical.
I would like to be able to compare them visually in an easy manner

I was wondering if anyone knows of a software that provides the mechanism to load 2 images (show them one next to the other in a split screen)
allow to perform a zoom on both image (both are being zoomed in the same time)
I then should be able to use the scrollbar to move across the images.
dragging the scrollbar will move both images by the same amount.

This will allow me to visually compare the two images
Does anyone know if such software exists?

thanks in advance

if the images have identical dimensions why not load both into one photoshop document in two respective layers. Cycle through the layer blend modes... differences should become readily apparent

May I recommend a small utility I use? It is from Prismatic, and is a free utility called dup detector. It will candidate similar or duplicated pictures, present them side by side, and allow you to delete one or the other, or not to not delete either. See the screen print and download information at:

Regards,
John
