However, if you still have the software CD's that came with the camera you should still be able to install that in Windows 7 64-bit. I know that as Canon updates their software they tend to drop support for earlier models. My bad on that but I still hope the camera can contain my info. Lightroom and Bridge let you add metadata in post, but I seldom remember to do that. I'm hoping that there is something out there that maybe someone on here will know. I guess you could as I have a mothballed system that I still own that I'm hoping the 20D version of the software is still on. However, once your system battery dies you can't reload your personal info into the camera. Sure the camera will still operate and you will be able to download your pictures. That kind of concerns me knowing that my cameras life cycle to a certain extent is tied to the compatibility of future OS software. It (new EOS utility) does not recognize the 20D and Canon does not support (newer versions of Windows 64bit) older software for previous models.

For instance, with the EOS utility that came with the 5D, I can attach the USB cable and the utility allows me to edit and display what the file info for my name, copyright, etc. to each photo as the 20D captures the picture. Meaning I cannot add my personal info, copyright, etc. My only problem is loading new meta data into the 'old' 20D. I'm using CS5 camera raw and it works great for the photos. I do have a card reader (several of them) and I don't have trouble getting photos into the computer.

It think my original post was a little bit murky. I tried it there but if it can work I'll try it again. The system battery ran down in the 20D and I'm trying to use EOS utility to reset metadata information. Going to take the disk from my 7d and see if that helps. I would enjoy to hear if you have any luck as I'm heading up to see my brother next week and maybe I can get his stuff running. I don't use them but they come in handy for doing things like restoring camera info like you are doing.

#WINDOWS 10 DRIVER FOR CANON EOS 20D UPGRADE#

I'm looking at that issue now as I'm thinking about the upgrade to Mac Lion OS and some of the Canon utilities are not compatible. Other then that maybe you could find someone who has a new set of disk and install them on your PC.

#WINDOWS 10 DRIVER FOR CANON EOS 20D UPDATE#

Have you tried to do that to up date all of them yet? Since you have them installed I would hope the update would work. He uses PSE7 so didn't have a problem so we didn't try to upgrade the utilities off the Canon site. We couldn't get some of them to function either and I believe it was a 32bit to 64bit issue. I gave him my 30d last year and took the disk that came with that camera. Here's the URL to read more about the SDK's and apply for them.I think I had the same problem with my brother's PC running Windows 7. It's possible the libraries will just compile without much hacking, but I'm a little bit out of my element when it comes to comparing Ubuntu and OS X.

#WINDOWS 10 DRIVER FOR CANON EOS 20D FOR MAC OS X#

Yes, I wear a tinfoil hat.Īnyway, there's an SDK for Mac OS X written in C that you should be able to hack up a bit to work with Linux instead of Mac's pimped BSD kernel. It's hard to devalue something when you can't read the mileage. My guess is Canon purposely hides these so that the resale price of their cameras stay high. (was looking to make a simple app that grabbed the shutter actuations, but couldn't find the data strings anywhere. I've installed the Windows one for the 10D and it's interesting, but I couldn't get the info I wanted from the camera.

If it still doesn't work, get help from someone else, as I'm not going to explain how to compile and kernel or configure hotplug/udev on a dpreview forum :).Ĭanon released a Software Developer's Kit that should have at least some functionality with the 20D. If it did not appear, try a 'modprobe ehci-hcd' and start over again. If that appeared, do the steps I mentioned above, but as root, as this is probably just a privileage problem. Usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2 Once that is done, open a terminal and type 'dmesg', if your computer is correctly configured you should see something like:

If you are using Linux, which I'm guessing you are, connect the camera to the computer and turn it on. Secondly, libgphoto2 uses PTP to communicate with the 20d, so set the 20d to use PTP.Ĭonnect the camera, turn it on and start your favourite camera application and if everything went well, you should be able to import your pictures now. I'll try to help.įirst of all, gphoto2 is actually just libgphoto2, you'll need a frontend to use it, like digikam, gtkam, gthumb or any other app that uses libgphoto2. I recommend you get gphoto2 to work with your camera instead. Well making a driver is quite complicated, and would still be too complicated for most, even if Canon was so kind to release the specifications for camera-communication. How make a driver for this camara ? Any idea? Download gphoto2 but have problems does not detect and have 2 weeks
