Editing RAW Images

You can specify the processing parameters for RAW images so that the RAW images are
optimized for their intended purpose.

Processing RAW Images

RAW images are processed based on the settings specified on the camera (including the
processing parameters and white balance) and then displayed on the computer.
When the following operations are performed, RAW images are processed and displayed:
• When the preview window is switched from the main window
• When the processing parameters are specified on the preview or main window
• When the image is converted to the TIFF or JPEG format and saved
• When the image is transferred to the specified retouching software
When the images are processed, it takes a while to display them.

vary widely depending on the images and the computer system.
• Processing times are based on Canon testing standards.
(OS: Windows XP; CPU: 2.2 GHz Pentium 4; RAM: 256 MB)
• The processing time in the retouching software includes starting up time of the retouching
software (when using Adobe Photoshop 7.0).
You cannot display images in the preview window (W-20) or edit RAW images saved on
a memory card in the camera directly. Before working images with EOS Viewer Utility, be
sure to download images saved on a memory card to your computer.
