Right, just read your earlier message. This is what the SizeFixer Faq 
says about the problem:
----------------------


      I know my images have EXIF data but the Super Resolution will
      still not activate. Why?

This is probably one of two reasons.

a) The source camera has incorrectly saved the parameters and 
*Size*Fixer can not validate the information provided. We know of a 
couple of leading cameras where the F Number details are completely 
incorrect and this fails the *Size*Fixer internal validation. The only 
work around we have at this time is to use an external EXIF editor to 
correct the information. A future upgrade will include an EXIF editor 
within the *Size*Fixer control panel.

b) The source image has been preprocessed or perhaps converted from RAW 
and this external programme has removed the EXIF information. Our only 
recommendation in this case is to avoid all image processing before 
using *Size*Fixer and in our experience Adobe Photoshop retains the EXIF 
data when converting from RAW.

--------------------------------

I tried files from 3 cameras (2 Nikon and 1 Canon) and they all worked, 
so I didn't look into this.

You might find it worth downloading the trial version of Photozoom Pro 
in that case as it seems almost as good. But if you already have QImage 
its probably not worth bothering.

Peter

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
