New DPP
For those of us that like DPP, which is me (don’t hate me). Canon has released a new version of the software with the following new features and fixes.

• Supports images taken with EOS Kiss X6i / EOS REBEL T4i / EOS 650D, EOS 60Da.
• Supports new lens (EF-S 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 IS STM).
• Fixed a phenomenon where the camera’s serial number that is displayed in the shooting information of the image is not displayed correctly for some of the EOS 60D.
• Fixed a phenomenon where the buttons for HDR tool cannot be displayed under specific settings of the display.
• Fixed a phenomenon where check mark or rating that is set using Quick Check Tool may not be displayed correctly.

Download from Canon USA (you know the drill, select your OS and download)

Thanks Martin

 Has anyone successfully done this?  Lots of users were having issues yesterday, so I did not download it.  It might have just been a Canon server was down.

Fixed a phenomenon where the buttons for HDR tool cannot be displayed under specific settings of the display.

I personally experienced this "phenomenon" on my laptop. The HDR tool worked on my desktop. I called Canon support when I encountered the problem and they were quite perplexed and didn't seem to believe me. I downloaded the update this weekend and it fixed the problem.

The HDR Tools actually works pretty good. Very basic and simple controls and you can produce realistic results, if that's what your looking for. It can also produce extreme results, that everyone identifies with HDR.

Wake me up the day DPP looks and behaves like Lightroom.

You'll be Sleeping Beauty then. Adobe is several times bigger than Canon, so it doesn't seem Canon could buy it in predictable future

fixed "phenomenon" when transferring to PS CS6 on 32 bit machines, no longer hangs every now and then, no problem with 64 bit though.

Different tool.

Just an upgrade to ACR

Why do they even bother to develop this software? It has got to be the most hideous piece of crap on my Mac.
A part from being dog ugly, it's marginally useful and I only use it when I'm waiting for Adobe or Apple to update their RAW support for a new camera on the market. As soon as my regular applications get updated, I immediately dump this ugly beast from my workflow. Why can't the programmers at Canon see how ridiculously ugly the UI is on this software? Why don't they bring in some graphic artists to make it look better?

Obviously a question of personal taste - I find it functional and fast.

I'd like to like DPP, I really would. But it's got too many showstoppers for me to even consider it.

Some are so trivial that I can't believe they weren't fixed years ago, like how the histogram always reflects the full image before cropping, even after you've cropped it. Totally useless!

Others I can almost forgive Canon for not implementing, but that doesn't do me any good. A way to build a camera recipe from a ColorChecker comparable to the way that ACR and the ColorChecker Passport do would be the perfect example, there.

So, sorry. The cameras are awesome, but the bundled software just doesn't cut the mustard. Sorry.

I downloaded it several days ago. I went straight to the DLO update to see if they had added any lenses. It couldn't find the server then, and it has been the same message ever since...

[briansquibb]

I downloaded it very early and had no problem getting the lens information

The lens site is now reporting that it cannot be contacted - therefore it is a site problem not a software issue

Likewise. "Cannot connect to server" is the error message. Sure it will be fixed soon(ish).

Ok, so I'm not the only one! I dropped Canon a note via their website today. Hopefully it's an easy fix...
