EOS Utility for Windows

User Reviews

• This software is NOT what it says - UPDATER only.

  5/9/2015

  Pros

  None. Simply not what it says.

  Cons

  Says it is the EOS utility but is only the EOS utility UPDATER which is easily available from Canon's own site and requires you to already have a version of the uitility.

  Summary

  Wasted my time.

• Only the "update", and loaded with malware

  IHKumicho2/22/2013

  Pros

  Avoid at all costs. If you just need the update, get it from Canon. If you need the full version, look elsewhere. THIS WON'T WORK WITHOUT AN EARLIER VERSION

  Cons

  Doesn't work

  Summary

  I expected better from CNET, instead I get a worthless file that's available off of the Canon website WITHOUT the ton of malware that CNET's trying to shove down my throat.

• It's not the utility - it is just the updater.

  NeilInOz511/14/2012

  Pros

  None. Easier to get this from Canon.

  Cons

  You need the utility installed.

• Works well for tethering, but not with RF Remote.

  1inthelight12/23/2011

  Pros

  Easy to install (yes, with previous version installed). Worked flawlessly with my Canon 40D using live view. Easy to setup the utility to handle files.

  Cons

  Will not work with RF Remote Shutter release, apparently the EOS utility overrides the RF.

  Summary

  This is what I use for shooting tethered, it works great. BUT, when I tried to use it with the RF Remote, it would not work. I ended up having to use the video cable to a TV using live view to accomplish that. I would like to have been able to choose to use the EOS shutter release button or antoher shutter release method, but apparently that is not an option.

• really useful

  kayfenton12/19/2011

  Pros

  It works! I had struggled with tethering my canon camera to my laptop. Despite numerous attempts to download working progs from canon site and losing hope - this came up trumps. Not only that, but it was free.

  Cons

  I had to rid my laptop of a few similar canon downloads and reinstall others. More space on a filling hard drive!

  Summary

  Thanks, really useful.

  Can't tell - product will not install unless previous version exists.

  Cons

  Product will not install unless previous version is already installed.
