5D Mark III copyright information

[msrtex]

5D Mark III copyright information shows up in the metadata but the copyright notice needs to be turned on manually in photoshop for each file. Is there anyway to turn it on with the automatic copyright within the camera?

I assume that the manual step you mention consists of copying the copyright notice from Canon's vendor-specific metadata to the corresponding IPTC field. The camera is ignorant of IPTC conventions; so if there's a way to perform the step automatically, I think it would have to be a setting in Photoshop.

Correct, I have written a Photoshop script but was hoping it could be done with the copyright.
