Now would be a good time for some high ISO 7d ii RAW files to play around with. 8)

I wont lie... i am intrigued by the movie utility... what exactly does it do?

 

[JRPhotos]

Does this mean that the 7DII wont be supported by DPP 4?

I see a few reasons to dislike this update immensely right now. Let's hope that can be fixed soon for me.

DPP4 initially supports full frame, but Canon has said it will eventually support all of their cameras. DPP4 is like IOS 8, pretty buggy, you don't want to use it.

After this last update, DPP seems to run better than before and I like the small but new export features as well. I've played with DPP4 with some 5DIII images from a friend, it is nice but DPP3 is nice for what I need.

Delete shooting data? Great, now no one will learn from my photos by examing my EXIF anymore! Yeppe!

Does anyone ever use that option in the editor to 'update' the lens data (via "add or remove lens data" dialog)? What's the benefit if you do? I find it downloads a lot of data and I don't see any difference - the Canon lenses are suitably correctly even if I don't download anything.

It's interesting to see what improvements Canon has made. I never particularly liked Lightroom but I am forced to use it for my Sony raws, and I've started to use it for my Canon files too if I've used the Samyang 14mm in a series (to correct for distortion). DPP has a much faster workflow but offers less editing latitude.

Please be aware that EOS utility for MAC in the package is the WRONG one to run on Yosemite.
You need to separately download eu3.0.1.x-installer.dmg
By the way this is the ONLY version of EOS utility that works on Yosemite

Does this timing imply that nothing new will be released soon? I think so.

 

[Rob Carter]

Disappointed that the cropping ratio still defaults to 'free' with each image change and that you cannot copy recipe and paste to all images like you used to be able to.

I have updated the lens data a few times. It took a long time before 400/5.6L USM appeared for the first time in that list.
You don't have to download the data for all lenses Canon released, but if you want to apply the DLO corrections you will have to do so manually.

Interesting, I did register those lenses in my collection with my Canon bodies via EOS utility, so I wonder if this data is now embedded in the raw files?

If applied, it will show up as a plus sign under the lens symbol in the top right corner of the thumbnails you see in the program. Typically, your CR2-files will grow to double the original size. Did a quick check on two of my 7D-files: The one without DLO - 23.3MB, and the other one with DLO - 44.8MB.

DominoDude, thanks for sharing this info.

Recently updated to Eos Utility 3 on a Mac 10.9.4 tethering the laptop to either a 5d or 6d with a USB cord. I can' find where in EOS Utility I can set it to record the file both to the laptop as well as in-camera cards(CF or SD)? There is not the normal check box under Remote Shooting in the preferences .

thanks, jeff

Hrmpfh! The forum didn't agree with me and my posting. Doing it again in a separate post.

Update 2 - The thumbnails of two images in DPP. One without, one with DLO.

Thanks again! I found this on the matter, too: http://web.canon.jp/imaging/dlo/howto/index.html

However S-RAW, M-RAW, JPEG, and TIFF images are not supported and I usually shoot SRAW1 (5DMkII), and MRAW (5DMkIII). I will evaluate if there's an advantage in it for me, but I normally downsize my images for digital viewing and well below the ~10 megapixels I shoot with. The 10 megapixels is sufficient for any material I've printed, largest on canvas. The hit on storage space is definitely not a plus because I shoot and process a lot of images... also not sure how my aging computer would handle these files.
