Hi All
I have a problem!
On the canon website it says if i connect my camera to the computer i can download the required software!
I have done this and the camera connects OK but NO software like comes up. Can any body help me! I cannot download from their website as it tells me to connect the camera. Do I try to find our of take it back to the shop and swop it for a Nikon?
HELP
Mike

Actually, it used to be pretty good. But two or three years ago they completely revamped it, resulting in the turgid mess that it is today. But be assured that in matters like this, they are well beyond listening to the likes of us. The fact that some of us have been in computer services and software development since before they were born is of no consequence. They know best, and we will eventually realize that if we live long enough.

There is Canon supplied software, but none of it is "required" to use the camera or download and process images.
If you don't have other photo software then DPP would be required if you are shooting RAW (which I recommend). If you are shooting JPEG the Windows 10 Photo software can be used.
You can EOS Utility to downoad images, or you can just open the card folder and copy directly.
