As I write this update (September 2012), the only downloadable item listed is the latest firmware update. OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion updateĬanon now provides a Mac OS X 10.8 choice in their Choose Operating System menu. ( Update: Canon changed the page and link, so I updated the link and the Canon page now looks different than the screen shot below.)Īlthough it isn’t necessary to install the Canon software if you use software such as Lightroom, Aperture, or Camera Raw to import and process your Canon DSLR images, you may find Canon EOS Utility easier for a few things such as tethered shooting and camera configuration. To download it, go to the Canon USA Digital SLR Cameras web page, click the picture of your camera, and then click Drivers and Downloads. If you’ve had any trouble running Canon EOS Utility on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, you’ll be happy to know that a new version of EOS Utility was just released, and it’s listed as supporting Mac OS X 10.6.8 and 10.7. (see bottom for OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion info)
