Hi,
I do amateur phototaography and thought I'd chime in. Since your daughter is
well versed with Canon RAW files I suspect she's using tools such as Adobe
Photoshop and perhaps Canon RAW converter utilities. However, since she doesn't
have access to her usual tools, she can use irfanview (www.irfanview.com). It's
windows based freeware image display and converter application. When I want to
do quick and dirty RAW conversions in batch, I use this.
Basically, it's the VLC of the image world, it'll display pretty much any image
format in existence. Unfortunately, it's only Windows based. If you're running
only Linux, perhaps you can get it running via Wine.
Hope this helps.
Peter

Thanks for the offer Matt. This question was actually for our daughter who
is home for a visit and doesn't have her usual system resources to do the
conversion as she is used to doing it. But the previous suggestion to use
'convert' worked okay albeit incredibly slowly. She is at a much higher
level of expertise in both photography and computers than me and uses much
more sophisticated equipment. I just use a point and shoot camera. She
uses a sophisticated Canon to take 25-meg shots. I use a Kodak to take
1/2-meg jpg shots ;)

1. convert FILE.cr2 FILE.jpg
2. if FILE.jpg is not an appropriate JPEG, or you get an error ...
I've always grabbed files from my digicam as JPEG not RAW, but I could
try grabbing one as RAW and trying /usr/bin/convert after dinner.
Well, According to everything I'm seeing in The Fine Manual
for my camera, it won't record still images in anything but JPEG.
Joe, if you want to send me a test RAW image for me to try to fiddle
with, please do so. If it's over 8M, use split to split it up into
4M slices before mailing it to me, or holler at me off-list and
I'll get you a user account so
you can scp/WinSCP/sftp:// the file right to my webhost.
