10D Software

[LeeO]

My 10D should be here this afternoon (assuming UPS doesn't get lost). As I already have PS7 I obviously don't need Canon's PSElements. I have heard many pros and cons to Canons included software. What would you recommend I install and what would you just leave on the CD. And why. Thanks in advance.

I would just installed the FILE VIEWER UTILITY and that's it. You only need this for the RAW file format and to change the settings.

PS7 will then take the JPG from there.

Oh, and the Remote Capture utility *may* be useful to some. I installed it, and it just lets you make settings and snap a pic and sends it directly to the PC. Kinda cool, but not really usefull for the field except maybe for sit down portraits.
