Help downloading RAW

[Dan AU]

Hi Becstarr


To see the files under native windows programs you need the windows Codecs otherwise you will only be able to open them in DPP, can't say I had the problem of not being able to view any images in DPP other than when they have been processed in another application and not flattened out of Photoshop or similar.

Here is a link...

Canon RAW Codec is a plug-in software that enables the import and display of Canon RAW image files when installed in Windows Vista (including SP1)/Windows XP SP2 and Windows XP SP3(*).
* To use the software with Windows XP SP2 and Windows XP SP3, application software that supports WIC (such as Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery) will be required.

Consider this for safety; don't do any more yourself; and take your card to a photo shop tomorrow and get them to put the images onto a CD/DVD for you. I did have trouble once with Nikon (I think) and I used to Windows to down load; this should work with Canon also.

Bec,
Copy them across to your PC and put them in a folder whilst you have the camera connected - insurance for if the card has a brain spasm. I don't have a Canon or the DPP software, so I bow to the Canon users as to the cause of your particular issue and whether it's because of the version of DPP or something.

The worst case is that some of the photos are truly corrupted - I'd not be trusting that memory card any more if that was the case.

Regards,
