Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Canon DPP and metadata
In DPP if you press ctrl-I you get a view of meta data in a raw image, include IPTC metadata. However none of it can be edited from within DPP, at least not that I can see. It's the same for a jpg, look but can change.

The meta data in the raw image can be edited, for example exiftools has no problem with it. And if I do edit it with exiftool, then when DPP creates a .jpg, the metadata I added is there. Also DPP will display at least some of the meta data that is added to a raw file, so it can see it.

Soooo is there any way to edit the meta data directly with DPP?

Thanks

Thanks David,

After a lot of poking I've come to that conclusion too

With a few scripts and other stuff integrate ExifTools to update the raw file exif with out to messing up my workflow too much.
