If you specify which camera you are using someone might be able to help :)
 
Look at your file name, nikon will be .nef, not sure about cannon. Either way, it will not be jpeg and you'll have to do something with it to show it to others. You should have an option in the menu under picture settings to choose quality of image. Hope that helps

Your files will have a .CR2 suffix.
 
It will also say RAW on the LCD when it shows all your settings, or under the Quality setting in the menu :)
 
Just be aware that if the 1000D is similar to other Canon cameras, it won't shoot in Raw if you select one of the creative modes on the dial.

Use the free software that came with your camera - Canon Digital Photo Professional. Does everything you need to process Raw files and a few special Canon tricks that some other Raw software programmes don't. It's very good :thumbs:

I brought it off a friend and didn't have the software :-(
 
I think that DPP link is only for (free) upgrades. You need an original code first.

Though there are various hacks out there if you google it.
