Digital Photo Professional Updated V3.11.26

[Andy90]

Canon have released the latest version of Digital Photo Professional (version 3.11.26). It now supports pictures taken with the Canon 5d Mk III and Canon 1D X. It also adds the following lenses

EF24mm F2.8 IS USM, EF28mm F2.8 IS USM, EF24-70mm F2.8L II USM, EF500mm F4L IS II USM, EF600mm F4L IS II USM

and adds the following tools

1) HDR (can merge three images)
2) Image Compositor (seems a little basic, but you can overlay images)
3) Digital Lens Optimiser

It can be downloaded from the Canon Software Support Centre at

Thanks for the heads up, grabbing now

Just had a little play with the Digital Lens Optimiser. Seems you need to click on the "update" button and then select the lenses you have. This causes the Program to download data (have to be connected to the Internet) for those lenses. Not all lenses are supported, though I suspect they will add to them bit by bit. Having a quick play with the settings it seems to add a very subtle sharpening effect to fine detail and in particularly to edges of things.

 

[And]

While it adds those superteles (500/600 MkIIs) it doesn't support any of the MkIs. Can't see the 300mm F4 L IS or 400 F5.6 L on that (short) list either.

Don't know what Canon are thinking to be honest, other than they want me to invest the price of a new Golf in new glass

Eh?

DPP supports almost all of the Canon range of lenses when it comes to Chromatic aberration or distortion. Nothing has changed with the new release other than they have added the following lenses

EF24mm F2.8 IS USM
EF28mm F2.8 IS USM
EF24-70mm F2.8L II USM
EF500mm F4L IS II USM
EF600mm F4L IS II USM

As for the NEW feature, Digital Lens Optimiser, so far only the following lenses have profiles (expect more to be released with each update).

EF 14mm f2.8L IIUSM
EF 24mm f1.4L II USM
EF 35mm f1.4L USM
EF 50mm f1.4 USM
EF 50mm f1.2L USM
EF 85mm f1.2 II USM
EF 300mm f2.8 II IS USM
EF 400mm f2.8 II IS USM
EF 500mm f4 II IS USM
EF 600mm f4 II IS USM
EF 16-35mm f2.8L USM
EF 16-35mm f2.8L II USM
EF 17-40mm f4L USM
EF 24-70mm f2.8L USM
EF 24-70mm f2.8L II USM
EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM
EF 28-300mm f3.5-5.6L IS USM
EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM
EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS II USM
EF 70-200mm f4 L USM
EF 70-200mm f4 L IS USM
EF 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM
EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM
EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM
EF-S 15-85mm f3.5-5.6 IS
EF-S 17-55mm f2.8 IS USM
EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM
EF-S 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 IS
EF-S 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS

A fairly good list for a new feature and I suspect covers their most popular lenses.

The new DLO feature is what I'm talking about, which doesn't cover the MkI superteles, of which there are many times more in circulation than the new ones. The 500/600 MkIIs aren't even in the hands of the general public yet.

My point was that I'd have expected the original superteles to be in that list. Maybe support for them will come in an update, but it seems odd they are not there from the start.

As for the NEW feature, Digital Lens Optimiser, so far only the following lenses have profiles (expect more to be released with each update).
