I have a question for any 10D users. When I upload my photos from the camera to Photoshop I find that most of the photos show on the screen at 16.7% but in the same upload a few will appear at 25%. There seems to be no reason for this as far as I can tell. It doesn't just happen to all vertical shots or all horizontal shots. Seems like a random sampling and I just can't figure out why it does that. Never happened to me with the Nikon 5700 or the Nikon 990. Does this happen to anyone else and/or does anyone know why?

I'm purely guessing here, but...

I think the 25% size is just within the window size you have available. If you are opening multiple files at once, the program will stagger the window position. Photoshop calculates the displayed "zoom value" based on available screen space, and does take into account other windows that would overlay, e.g. the floating pallettes, so as the window position moves, the available space may not meet the requirements to display at 25% and it drops it to 16.7%
This is the most likely source of the behavior. In any case, it's nothing but a nuisance.
To confirm the hypothesis, try upping you screen resolution one notch if you can, then see if it goes away. I assume you are running 1024x768, unless you are running on an LCD screen, you should be able to increase it. Even on LCD, you may be able to increase it and let the desktop fall off the screen edge, you can still scroll over/down to the invisible areas by moving the mouse to the edge.
