This is a no-brainer.  ImageJ will meet your needs, and much much more,  Free for PC, Mac, Linux.  Huge user base, updated frequently, reads almost any file format with the aid of the LOCI Bioformats importers.  I like the version with the microscopy plugins collection, which can be obtained from this site:

Hi all,

(I have searched through the archives without finding any recent posts)

Does anyone know of a basic (and free) image viewing software capable of
viewing 8, 16, and 24bit images?  A bonus would be 3D tif (.stk, .lsm)
support.  I know Zeiss distributes Axiovision LE free of charage, but
this is a large install with lots of unnecessary extras for only viewing
images.

We already have many Metamorph licenses, but I'd like to give individual
user's the ability to view images on their desktop.

Thanks,
Doug
