Hi
I can't seem to see the AF point selected when I review the photos in Canons DPP software [that came with my 7D]
What I'm trying to do, is to review how good my focusing is at say 50 & 100%.
A bit like if I review on camera a previous shot I can see the AF point in the red box.

Is this possible on the Laptop using DPP?
If so how do I activate it?

Just an aside I transfered the files using a Sandisk Imagemate card reader, by viewing the images on the card, copying them and pasting into My pictures.
Does the transfer method matter re transfering this info? i.e. if I had connected the Camera via the std. cable and downloaded the images using EOS utilities would I be able to see the AF points? or any other way to do this much appreciated.

Open the image in DPP right click the image > AF Point, I wouldn't imagine how you transfer affects it.
