Changing the Size and Type of an Image and Saving using ZoomBrowser EX Ver6.7.

Solution

To change the size or type of a captured image (still image) and save it as a different file, use the [Export] function of the bundled software, ZoomBrowser EX. Using [Export Still Images] of the [Export] function, you can convert a JPEG image to a TIFF image, or reduce the size of an image.

Important:
  • To perform these operations, ZoomBrowser EX must be installed from the supplied CD-ROM.
  • In this section, Windows 7 is used as an example. Depending on the version of Windows you are using, on-screen displays and operations may differ slightly.
  • To change the type of RAW images, please use Digital Photo Professional. For more information, refer to .

1. Double-click the [ZoomBrowser EX] shortcut icon on your desktop to start [ZoomBrowser EX].

If the [ZoomBrowser EX] shortcut icon does not appear on the desktop, click [Start](), [All Programs], or click in the following order: [Programs], [Canon Utilities], [ZoomBrowser EX], and then select [ZoomBrowser EX] to start the application.

2. The following window appears.

Click [Export].

Click [Export Still images].

3. The following window appears.

Select either [Favorite Folders] or [All Folders], and select the folder that contains the images to export. Images exported to [ZoomBrowser EX] are usually saved in [Pictures] or [My Pictures] folder.

Select images to export. To select multiple images, click on the images while holding down the <Ctrl> key on the keyboard.

After selecting images, click [Specify Export Settings].

4. The following window appears.

To change the size of an image, select the [Resize images during export] checkbox (). Specify the size of either the long or short side of the image to change the image size. The aspect ratio will stay the same, so the other side will be set automatically.

To change the type or the quality of an image, select the [Change image type] checkbox (). Depending on the selected image type, the detailed settings will vary as follows.

Image type Shooting Properties (Exif info) Image Quality (slider adjustment) Remarks

Click [Calculate] to start exporting the file and the file size will display in [Modified File Size]. In this case, the file export is already completed, so it is not necessary to perform step if you do not change the saving location in step .

The saving location specified in step will be displayed.
