“Why are the edits I made to Raw shots using DPP v3 not carried to DPP v4?”
Carl Poinder, Gloucestershire
BRIAN SAYS… When you edit an image with Digital Photo Professional (DPP), the changes you make are stored in a recipe container within the image file itself. There are separate containers for DPP v3 and DPP v4 recipes. DPP v4 does not read the DPP v3 recipe and vice versa. DPP v4 has improved image quality and more editing possibilities, so they cannot be interchanged.
DPPv4 fully supports all the Raw images from any EOS camera, plus works on the latest computer operating systems. I suggest using DPP v4 primarily, with DPP v3 only for images already processed.
