In addition to the aforementioned software tools, your Canon CD contains two additional programs: ZoomBrowser EX (Windows) or ImageBrowser (Mac), plus Digital Photo Professional. In this section, you can find out how to organize your photos using the ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser tool. Although you can view thumbnails of your images in Digital Photo Professional, that tool is designed for advanced users, so I don't cover it in this book.
ZoomBrowser EX 6.9.0a on 32-bit and 64-bit PCs. This download is licensed as freeware for the Windows (32-bit and 64-bit) operating system on a laptop or desktop PC from camera software without restrictions. ZoomBrowser EX 6.9.0a is available to all software users as a free download for Windows. We also encourage you to check the files with your own antivirus before launching the installation. This download is absolutely FREE. The version of ZoomBrowser EX you are about to download is 6.9.0.1. The package you are about to download is authentic and was not repacked or modified in any way by us. Last modified: 11-Dec-13. ImageBrowser EX 1.1.0 for Mac OS X. ImageBrowser EX is a new image management software program for Canon digital cameras and digital camcorders. This software makes managing and searching for images shot with cameras and camcorders very easy.
The next sections give you the most basic of introductions to ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser, which, in the interest of saving type, I may refer to from here on in as just 'the browser.' If you want more details, the CD that ships with the program offers a very good online manual.
kBEff Before you move on, though, I want to clear up one common point of confusion: You can use Canon's software to download and organize your photos and still use any photo editing software you prefer. And to do your editing, you don't need to re-download photos — after you transfer photos to your computer, you can access them from any program, just as you can any file that you put on your system.
Getting acquainted with the program
Figure 8-14 offers a look at the ZoomBrowser EX window; Figure 8-15, the ImageBrowser window. As you can see, the windows contain most of the same basic components, although the Mac version of the browser is lacking the row of task buttons found in the upper-left corner of the Windows version. The two versions also offer a different set of image-viewing modes — Preview Mode and List mode on the Mac, and Zoom, Scroll, and Preview modes in Windows.

Whichever version you use, you can customize the window layout via the View menu. The arrangement you see in the figures is the Preview mode setup. I prefer this mode because it provides easy access not just to your images, but also to details about the camera settings you used to shoot the picture. Note that in Windows, you can display and hide the Explore and Information panels by clicking the little vertical buttons that border the preview area (the 'Information panel' label in Figure 8-14 points to one of the little guys.) On a Mac, choose ViewOView Settings to display a submenu where you can toggle the panels on and off.
Here's a quick guide to viewing your photos in Preview mode:
✓ Select the folder you want to view. Click the folder's icon in the Explore panel, found on the left side of the window and labeled in Figures 8-14 and 8-15. If you click the Favorite Folders tab, you see only the My Pictures or Pictures (Windows) or Pictures folder (Mac) along with any custom Favorites folders that you create, a topic that you can visit in the upcoming section 'Organizing your photos.' By default, picture files that you transfer from your camera or memory card using the Canon software go into these folders. To view all folders on your computer, click the All Folders button.
✓ Preview the images in the selected folder. In Preview mode, the current image appears at a large size in the middle of the window, as shown in the figures, and a 'filmstrip' of smaller thumbnails appears beneath.
To view the next image in the filmstrip, click its thumbnail. On a Mac, you then can press the right and left arrow keys on your keyboard to view your photos one by one. In Windows, the same technique works on some keyboards; if not, click the Next and Previous buttons (under the large preview) instead. Drag the scroll bar under the thumbnails to scroll the thumbnail display as needed.
✓ View an image in full-screen mode. For a larger view of a photo, doubleclick its thumbnail. (You must double-click the thumbnail, not the larger preview image.) Doing so opens the image in its own browser window, displaying the image as large as possible to fit the available screen space. This full-screen window is the Viewer window. The next section explains more about the controls therein. To exit the Viewer window and return to the main browser, just click the window's close button.

✓ View shooting information. Check out the Information panel, located on the right side of the window. If you click the Shooting Information button, you display all the settings that you used to capture the selected image, as shown in Figures 8-14 and 8-15. Reviewing this data — known as metadata — is a great way to better understand what settings work best for different types of pictures, especially when you're just getting up to speed with aperture, shutter speed, white balance, and all the other digital photography basics. (Note that you may need to scroll the Information panel display to access the Shooting Information button, depending on the size of the program window.
Those are the basics of navigating through your images. In the next section, you can find some hints about viewing your photos in full-screen mode, inside the Viewer window. After that, the section 'Organizing your photos' explains how to customize the folder setup that the Canon software creates for you.
Viewing photos in full-screen mode
Double-clicking a thumbnail in the main browser window displays the image inside the Viewer window. Figure 8-16 shows the Windows version of the Viewer; Figure 8-17 shows the Mac alternative.
After opening an image in the Viewer window, use these tricks to inspect it more closely:
✓ Magnify the image. You can zoom in on your image for a closer look by using these techniques:
• In ZoomBrowser EX (Windows): Drag the Zoom slider or click the preview with the Zoom In tool, both labeled in Figure 8-16.

• In ImageBrowser (Mac): Choose a specific magnification level from the Display Size drop-down list, labeled in Figure 8-17.
✓ Scroll a magnified image. After you magnify the photo, a tiny Navigator window appears in the top-left corner of the screen, as shown in the figures. The little red triangles in the Navigator window indicate the area that you're viewing in the main preview. To scroll the display to see another portion of the image, put your cursor in the Navigator window, within the area bounded by those little red triangles, and drag.

In Windows, you also can click the Hand tool, labeled in Figure 8-16, and drag in the preview itself. On a Mac, just drag in the preview; your cursor automatically sets itself to Hand-tool mode as soon as you enlarge the image display.
✓ Reduce the view size. In Windows, click the preview with the Zoom Out tool or use the Zoom slider. (Refer to Figure 8-16.) On a Mac, choose a smaller zoom size from the Display Size drop-down list.
To zoom out so that you can see the entire image, click the Fit to Window button in Windows. (Refer to Figure 8-16.) On a Mac, choose Fit to Window from the Display Size list instead.
✓ View the next image in the folder. If you want to inspect more images in the Viewer, just click the Previous and Next buttons, labeled in Figure 8-16, if you use Windows. On a Mac, click the Back or Next button located under the preview.
✓ Edit the photo. To use the editing tools provided with the program, open the Edit drop-down list, found above the preview in Windows and beneath it on a Mac. Then select the editing task you want to perform. Chapter 10 provides more details about shifting into Editing mode and using the available tools.
Keep in mind that the preceding tidbits just give you the basics of using the Viewer window; for additional tips, check out the program manual.
Organizing your photos
By default, the Canon download software puts your picture files into either the My Pictures or Pictures folder in Windows and the Pictures folder on a Mac. Within that folder, the downloading tools organize the images by their shooting dates, creating a new folder for each date found on the memory card, as shown in Figure 8-18. Each folder contains only the images shot on that particular day.
If you don't like this organizational structure, you can change it. For example, you may want to organize images by category — family, travel, work, and so on. I took this approach to customize my folder collection in Figure 8-18.
- Figure 8-18: You can create custom folders to organize images by category.
To keep things simple, I suggest that you add these custom folders within the My Pictures or Pictures folder (Windows) or Pictures folder (Mac). That way, you'll always know where to look for images on your computer's hard drive. And programs that default to looking to those folders for photos will be able to find them as well. The next mini-sections show you the basics you need to create custom folders and then organize images in them.
Creating custom folders
Take these steps to add a folder to the My Pictures or Pictures list. (Again, which folder is the default image-storage tank depends on your computer's operating system.)
1. Click the Favorite Folders tab of the Explore panel, if it isn't already visible.
2. Click My Pictures or Pictures.
The folder should appear highlighted.
3. Choose FileONew Folder.
The New Folder dialog box appears.
4. Type the name of the folder in the text box and click OK.
Your folder appears as a subfolder under the My Pictures or Pictures folder.
To create a subfolder within your new folder, follow the same process, but click the new folder in Step 2. For example, I created two subfolders within my Travel folder in Figure 8-18.
Managing your image collection
After you create your folders, you can place images into them in two ways:
✓ Move an image from one folder to another. Display the image thumbnail and then drag it to the desired folder. The program moves the image file to the new folder and removes it from the old one.
✓ Download new images directly to your desired folder. You can specify a custom folder as the download destination when you use the EOS Utility and MemoryCard Utility software to transfer images. See the earlier sections of this chapter for details.
Use these techniques to maintain and further organize your image collection:
Delete a folder. First, click the folder name to select it. Then, in Windows, choose FileODelete. On a Mac, choose FileOSend to Trash. In both cases, the program displays a message asking you to confirm that you want to get rid of the folder; click Yes (Windows) or OK (Mac) to proceed.
Be careful: This step deletes both the folder and all images inside it!
Rename a folder. Click the folder and choose FileORename. In the dialog box that appears, type the new folder name and then click OK.
Ex Machina
Rename a picture file. Click the image thumbnail and choose FileO Rename. Type the new name in the dialog box that appears and then click OK. Note: Do not type the three-letter file extension (.jpg or .CR2) at the end of the new filename. The program adds that data automatically to the filename for you.
Delete a picture. Click the image thumbnail to select it. Then, in Windows, choose FileODelete; on a Mac, choose FileOSend to Trash. As with deleting a folder, you're presented with a dialog box asking you whether you really, really want to dump that image. Respond in the affirmative to do so.
