The DPP4 I use it a lot. The best Raw editing program for Canon cameras. The color that is achieved with this software is very good. Also the PictureStyleEditor is fantastic!

It would be useful when referring to DPP (but it may exist somewhere already) to have the logical progression within DPP to produce the best result when post-processing. As an example if you sharpen before you remove noise you enhance the noise and make it more difficult to remove. If you remove noise too much in certain windows you degrade the picture sharpness and cannot recover the sharpens of the image. The same goes for contrast shadows highlights color correction cropping etc. It would help the beginners to provide some logical workflow steps with guidelines of what to do first and which tabs in DPP to start with and end with. This would also apply to output sharpening re what you will use the image for as a final product and how to not over/under-process or do something in the wrong order and get sub-optimal final products. Just my humble opinion

Thanks Canon USA, Great tutorial, big thumbs up

Thank you very much for this video, I perfectly understood everything, now I can approach every tool

Thank so much for a clear demonstration for editing.

Very informative, easy to follow along. Thanks.

I believe the masking/set adjustment area feature can be improved by adding a brush to remove the mask from places we don't want in order to refine our selection. Adding more adjustment sliders within our custom adjustment area would save me from needing to use third-party applications for fine tuning.

Can’t wait to edit

Thank you for the DPP demo, would you make DPP like Capture one, for canon users that would be a great help

I think Photoshop is a tool that should be held in reserve for what it does in all of the detail areas of photo work that are outside of what a program like DPP4 does best, and that is to make the image that comes out of your camera the best that it possibly can be. After you get to that stage, then you can customize you image in so many different ways, and Photoshop has an arsenal of choices on its own. To further complicate DPP4 is not a good thing to do... I like it being held to simply making adjustments to bring the image to it's highest level.

it's a great tool, thanks for the videos tutorials it's really helpful for beginners like me. do we have an undo key? I messed up an image and wanted to back a the previous one but couldn't.

I have recently downloaded DPP 4.8.30. My major difficulty is that, although I have a reasonably fast PC with adequate RAM for most applications, I find this software extremely slow. The worst possible function is in the "partial image adjustment" department. I have not managed yet to "paint" a partial image area correctly. The cursor moves freely, but the brush does not follow but with several seconds' delay. In this does not allow you to see immediately the effects you are creating but when it is too late to make any corrective moves. Is there a later version released yet? I read about DPP 4.9.20; logically this should be a more recent version, but I am not sure how Canon assigns software numbers.

Thanks John Already watched the video. The explanation is very limited though. Was comparing DPP with ACR and DXO last night and noticed the OOTB colour rendering is very good in DPP however the limiting factor for me is the availability of good tutorials for DPP. For example; the DR adjustment tool itself is proving hard. We can slide all 4 sides but I need to know the basics behind that. Downloaded the manual but it's more like a technical guide and explains what is what instead of guiding when and why. I am not very experienced in photography and some basic understanding of a tool makes my work bit easier. Regards

At 6:08 your cursor turns into an arrow and you can click and drag to crop. No such thing happens in my DPP 4. The cursor stays in the shape of 4 arrows. Like a + sign with pointers at the end. And no clicking and dragging is possible, which makes the cropping virtually impossible.

Also, it appears that DPP was for RAW images but I just noticed that it can also be used with JPEG images too. I can trim and alter all the main characteristics of the photo but not resize. I came across this while researching Picture Style. DPP is the only place I could find the complete Picture Style that had been used on my JPEG images AND my video clips. I thought it was important to know what Picture Style the pics and videos had originally been taken in. For picture editing I have been using Corel PaintShop Pro X6 (on Vista) and previous versions mainly for trimming and batch resizing for uploading to websites or emailing.

Wow! I stumbled on 4 of these videos for version 4 of DPP. Why are these so hard to find? Are there more than the first four that I found or are the other videos not out yet? How can I make sure I will be able to see them? Can I subscribe or something? A comment on the software - I am a very serious semi-pro photographer and I had been using Aperture since its inception. I found the earlier versions of DPP very unappealing, although DPP has always had certain advantages. Now that Apple has seen fit to abandon Aperture and the serious photographers, I have been in search of an alternative. I found the new version of DPP and I am very impressed with the improvements Canon has made. It certainly does not accomplish all that I was able to do in Aperture, but I will be using another editor (Acorn) to make those kinds of edits now. Speaking of which, I wish DPP4 would allow me to export to an editor besides Photoshop. Perhaps something in settings to designate the external editor? Obviously I can simply leave DPP and manually open the file in my editor, but being able to ship it right from DPP would be nice.

Hi Samuel! If the images you are trying to make adjustments to were shot as JPEGs, you won't be able to change the White Balance because the camera has already processed the White Balance you set for the shot into the JPEG image. Try making the adjustment to a RAW file instead. Also, once an image is a JPEG, much of the data that was there when the image was in its RAW form is gone, so it cannot be converted back to a RAW. We hope this answers your questions!

Check out the one for the EOS 90D at canon.us/3Bg7SDf and you'll find what you're looking for. Hope this helps!

Why does the latest version of dpp crash every single time i open it? I had to revert back to an older version. This is on a gaming comp so the specs are well above requirements. Will Canon be releasing bug fixes?

Hello That's an interesting question. The Tags category shown in the window at 9:28 is a function of the Finder app on a Mac and the Mac OS. They can be used to find files or folders within Finder. The Apple website has more details here: canon.us/3VWeweh. The Canon DPP program does not make use of those tags. If you have any other questions on DPP, our camera support team is happy to help. Reach out to them at 1-800-652-2666 Monday- Saturday; excluding holidays. Outside the USA, visit our Global website at Canon.us/globalsupport. Hope this helps.

@@CanonUSA Thanks for your assistance. I downloaded the software. But it appears there is no way to save all your hard effort, to organize your photos with collections & keywords or data. The manual does not give more info. There is no export or backup of collections. That automatically means I cannot use the software, except only to convert raw files. If you have such great, top notch equipment, why not a great program at least with the basics, with DPP 4. It is lacking in just some basics, to the point I find it a serious lack & so cannot use it for such purposes. No one expects that canon Dpp must have adobe level of features, but DPP is a far cry from even just giving a great, basic, yet very solid, full functioning software with such INITIAL photo processing needs, to go along with your great equipment. I need to be able to sort/ create collections / add keywords or metadata/ tags, etc, at the same time as initial processing from raw, & not need to use some separate program that adds a second step, with need to go through all photos again, a 2nd time, to take such a step. That is a BASIC need that DPP should be notch with & excel at. Thanks for listening Blessings. Peace.

A few newbie questions. Why doesn't this program allow you to sort images by Edit Time? Why does it open each image individually but don't allow you to move to the next image by simply pressing the arrow key or rolling the mouse wheel? Also why is it such a memory hog? I mean, I have a very powerful system with tons of memory and a top of the line graphic card and it still moves slow as heck. Not even going to get into the saving slow. Is this because I'm using a PC?

I had the same problem and have been looking all over for a solution, till seeing this post. Two things: why does the DPP 4 descriptions and advertising not mention this prominently, or at least when one tries to use that function with a JPEG why does the program not give a message that the function is not possible with a JPEG (instead of the user wasting time trying to find a solution)? Secondly, I find this a REAL drawback to DPP 4 and will switch to another editing program.

Hi Clive! The advantage of RAW is that all of the original data is there with the image so you can make more detailed changes or edits before you process it into a usable format, such as JPEG or TIFF. Another benefit to this is you still have the original RAW if you want to come back to it later and do something differently with it, whereas a JPEG or TIFF with those previous edits is final. We hope this helps!
