    Default 7D Mark II RAW Photos Are Pink

    I shot a series of photos recently for the first time in straight RAW format - all 700 images are IMG CR2 Files.. Where and how can I convert them from pinkish-orange to the natural color as taken? Are there free converter software downloads for the Canon 7D-II?

    Regards,

    Jonathan

    This looks like you may have an extreme white balance set in camera. Usually Auto or Daylight is best. Your raw converter will read the in-camera setting as the initial setting, but it is completely non-destructively flexible. Just try Auto for the WB setting in the raw converter to get you in thea ballpark then tweak from there for each image.

    Diane and Arash, thank you for your replies.

    The in camera WB setting for all 700 images was set on Auto.

    I'm looking for a converter that is user friendly. I only tried Paxillon, but can't seem to get it to work. A net search showed Canon had a converter called DPP, but I couldn't find a download for my 7D-II.

    Further directions would be most appreciated.

    Regards,

    Jonathan

    I see, It's not the WB, the software you are using is garbage it cannot read Canon RAW files. you need to use DPP, Adobe LR or capture one.

    Canon DPP comes with your camera it's on the EOS solution DVD that comes in the box.

    If you need a guide for DPP4 Jonathan the one Arash and Artie have produced is very good, see the link at the bottom of Arash's reply.
