If you bought the camera new, then you might have a cd in the box that's labeled "Canon Digital Solutions Disc" or something like that.
There will be a program on the disc named Digital Photo Professional. That will let you view and edit as well as convert Canon RAW files to JPEG. Check here for updates to the software under your camera model: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras |

Before you go doing that, there's A LOT of cool post-production stuff you can do with RAW that you can't do with jpg. Many programs listed by people, Gimp is free and pretty good. Also check, for the future your camera may be able to shoot and save RAW and jpg at the same time.
If keeping the original RAW won't break the bank, do it. 2TB+ drives are dirt cheap. |
