I bought this camera used and the guy did not have the software disc. Canon
does not make this available online, and wants to charge for it to send to
me. If anyone can make an image of this and make it available for me to
download, it would be greatly appreciatted. Unfortunatley, I have no place
for anyone to upload it to.

Pay for the disk.

The disc is free when you purchase a camera. There is none to buy.

Everybody thanx you for the useful help.

It seems that there is lots of software for download on the UK site. I
assume you are UK because of the spelling of disc instead of disk.

The Canonusa site has software for USA consumers.

If you have win2K or XP just plug the camera into the USB port. There is no
software required.

Look under "My Computer" and you should see a "removable memory drive" with
all your pics on it. Copy and paste to a permanent location.

Thankyou tot he two who replied, but regarding the first guy, all the
software Canon posts on their site, is just the drivers or updates. I need
the actuall original disc.

Yes, I know I can access the pictures by just using the camera as a drive,
but that will not allow me to do anything with "RAW" images, thus my want
for the original disc. Hopefully someone can create an image of their disc
and let me know where I can dload it from.

As for where I am from, I am actually Canadian. I just like the spelling
"DISC". ;\)

It figures the USanians can only spell by phonetics anyway. If you use a
letter with two different sounds they have to go to war over it.

Canon offers a utility specifically for processing Canon RAW (.CRW) files
that works for those created by the PowerShot G1... and might well work
for others.

I located the package, labelled "Raw Image Converter v2.0.2 for Windows"
via a pop-up window from the following link:

http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/controller?
act=SupportDetailAct&fcategoryid=222&modelid=8282

via the link Drivers & Software -> Software.

Hope this helps...

Thanks for the tip. I actually found someone awhile ago that gave me a copy
of the discs. I might just grab this and see if it suits my needs.
