Jim, is this the software that came with my Rebel XT. If it's is, I don't need to download it, right? I can just download the other two files.

Yes but I think it's just the latest version... Same goes with the XTI, 30d, 20d, 10d etc.

Here's the link to Canon's website...

Select Digital Photo Professional 3.0 Updater for Windows from the list, and the link to download the software (DPP30UPD_EN.exe) is located at the bottom of the page...

So I would adjust and convert one of your images, then post it up here?

I'm not sure why... I normally make all my adjustments with DPP or Adobe Lightroom before further editing the image with Photoshop.

Ok, I did my best at this, but I don't think I have an eye for deciding what looks best. I changed and changed things! When I compared to the original they did look better, but how much????

I think they look great... Which program did you end up using? How long did it take from start to finish?

I used the Canon Digital Photo Professional then resized them with Windows My Pictures. I sometimes use paint shop pro to resize, but was in a hurry today and can do all at once from the album in My Pictures. I didn't think to watch the time. I saved each one separately. What do they mean by batch processing?

Here's my attempt... I used Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop for all my post-processing. Total time spent about 10 minutes.

Jim, would it be possible to post the uncorrected pics in the original post. I would like to compare them to the ones that people post. I downloaded them to my other computer. I'm not networked to view them on this computer. It would be a help to have them right in this thread for comparison.
