Photoshop CS can see Exif 2.21 files. When an Exif 2.21 compatible application is used,
it is automatically opened using the Adobe RGB color space. Exif 2.21 compatible print-
ers will produce prints with optimum saturation adjustment.
Software Package
The EOS-1Ds Mark II is bundled, at no extra cost, with two software CD-ROMs. The EOS
Digital Solution Disk (v. 9.0) includes EOS Viewer Utility (v. 1.2), EOS Capture (v. 1.2),
PhotoStitch, a TWAIN Driver and a WIA Driver. Macintosh and Windows versions of
Viewer Utility, Capture and PhotoStitch are provided. Digital Photo Professional (v. 1.5)
is on the second disk.
Digital Photo Professional (DPP) offers high-speed and convenient processing of RAW
images. Rivaling and even surpassing features of expensive, stand-alone and plug-in
RAW image processing programs, DPP streamlines professional photographers' work-
flow, providing time and labor saving options such as instantaneous RAW image
adjustment display and support for .CR2 and RAW .TIF as well as Exif TIFF and JPEG
formats. Among the numerous features DPP provides is the capability to save multiple
adjustments to an image as a "recipe" that can be reloaded and used again or applied
to other images. In comparison mode, original and edited images can be compared side
by side or within a single split image.
DPP is compatible with multiple color space settings including sRGB, Adobe RGB and
Wide Gamut RGB as well as Color Management Settings using ICC profiles. Among the
array of processing options provided by DPP are color channels, tone curves, exposure
compensation, white balance, dynamic range, brightness, contrast, color saturation, ICC
Profile embedding and assignment of monitor profiles. DPP allows continuous editing
while batches of previously adjusted RAW files are rendered and saved in the background.
Planned changes for DPP version 1.5, compared with v. 1.1, include a cropping tool, a
navigation tool, CMYK printer simulation, multiple image downloading and downloading
to applications other than Photoshop, and support for high-end compact models, such
as the Canon Powershot Pro1. Continuous refinement simply means that the
functionality and value of DPP will increase over time.
The EOS Viewer Utility/EOS Capture programs bundled with both Mark II cameras permit
downloading of images directly from the camera's CF or SD cards to the computer (utilizing
the supplied IEEE1394 cable or a peripheral card reader) for use by DPP or other programs,
and the EOS Capture program in particular works together with DPP to support tethered
shooting with a full range of image adjustments in studio environments, an application
at which the EOS-1Ds Mark II will excel. Once images have been adjusted in DPP, a
transfer function allows immediate editing in Photoshop or any other imaging program.
The PhotoStitch program automatically composites multiple images into a single image.
In addition to the single-image printing function available on normal printers, DPP
supports linked printing with the Easy-PhotoPrint software for Canon Inkjet/Bubble Jet
