What is ImageBrowser?
What Can ImageBrowser Do? (1/2)
This chapter explains the various basic skills required to master
ImageBrowser. Let’s begin with an overview of the main features of
ImageBrowser.
Connect the camera to a computer to:
•View an index of the images from the camera on the
computer monitor.
• Download images from the camera to the computer.
•View information about images stored in the camera, such as
the shooting date and camera settings.
• Use your computer to set up slide shows or DPOF print
settings (not available on some models).
• Save computer images onto your camera.
• Operate the shutter of a camera connected to a computer via
an interface cable to take pictures remotely. Or to perform
interval timer shooting after specifying an interval and the
number of images to be taken (only on models supporting
remote shooting).
• Convert RAW format images (change them to the TIFF or
JPEG format and resave them). Adjust the brightness,
contrast, color and other settings as you convert them. Some
camera models do not support RAW images.
Use the file management features to:
• Categorize, sort and manage image files on your computer
with easy procedures.
• Move or copy images.
• Perform simple editing such as cropping images or adjusting
their colors.
• Run a slide show displaying the images in sequence in fullscreen mode.
• Use the TimeTunnel feature to display images in a tunnel-like
arrangement in the order of their shooting dates.
•Create and edit movies, adding various effects: link movies
and still images, superimpose titles and other text, and add
background music (supported by Mac OS X only).
Use the My Camera Settings function to:
• Save the My Camera Settings in the computer to the camera
or vice versa.
• Manage newly created image and sound files as My Camera
Settings.
REFERENCE
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
• The start-up image, start-up sound, shutter sound, operation
sound and self-timer sound are collectively called the “My
Camera Settings.”
• The Canon CD-ROM supplied with your product contains
several prepared My Camera Settings files. These files are
automatically copied to your computer when you install
ImageBrowser.

By using other applications:
ImageBrowser gives you additional power when you use it
together with the following applications. (You can start these
applications from within ImageBrowser.)
■ PhotoStitch
•You can stitch multiple images (which were split and shot
individually using functions like the camera's Stitch Assist
mode) together to form a single, large size, panoramic
picture.
•You can stitch images horizontally or vertically or in a matrix
format.
• When you shoot the surroundings in 360 degrees, you can
later stitch the images to form a 360-degree cylindrical
shape. By saving this stitched image in QuickTime VR format,
you can then get a virtual view of the various parts of the
image.

Using Contextual Menus
When you hold down the [control] key and click the mouse
button, a menu is displayed. This is a contextual menu.
In ImageBrowser, you can access many useful functions through
contextual menus.
For example, when you hold down the [control] key and click
an image, the following contextual menu appears.
A contextual menu is, as its name implies, a menu whose
options vary according to the context. It is a collection of the
most commonly used buttons and commands that apply to a
given situation.
Contextual menus allow you to use ImageBrowser more
efficiently. When you feel comfortable with ImageBrowser, try
using the contextual menus in different situations and you will
be impressed with their convenience.
Note that, in general, this manual does not cover operations
using contextual menus. (This is because explaining the many
menu variations would take too many pages.)
Nevertheless, a full explanation is provided on the
corresponding page when a contextual menu is used in a
procedure.
