Canon's Digital Photo Professional Tutorials


We're back after a crazy weekend with MacWorldWe're back after all the MacWorld announcements. But since not much of that pertains to us, and the fact that you probably got your information the second it came out, we took a break for a few days and basked in all the Apple glory.

Getting back to business though, Canon has released a web page totally dedicated to helping users learn its Digital Photo Professional application (PC/Mac). The program is a free software that comes with most Canon digital cameras and all Canon EOS digital cameras. The video tutorials take you through the latest version of DPP to edit and process files. You are guided through the somewhat easy to understand videos by a Canon professional market rep, Elizabeth Pratt.

I use DPP sometimes to batch process RAW files on our windows system sometimes, but at home, I am a Mac guy and thing Aperture is worlds better. (But it cost money compared to this free alternative, granted you own a Canon EOS DSLR). Their workflow is not simplified and uses complicated terms for the beginner. But most users will get the hang of it to understand the basics of the interface.
