Making the most of your Canon EOS software
Handling images from your digital EOS can be a daunting task. Images today are much larger than ever before and the downloading, storing, back up, processing and printing of them can prove tricky, even for seasoned computer users.
We look at the software that is supplied with the camera that can be used to speed up and simplify this process. The comprehensive software often gets overlooked and yet it is easy to use and gives great results. We also take a look at RAW image processing using Digital Photo Professional (DPP) which is also supplied and show where RAW processing can be beneficial in some aspects of photography and why the supplied software will produce superior results for the majority of users.
