Preparing for Use with Mac 4-33
Installing the KODAK Driver for
Adobe Photoshop Software
(Macintosh) and the Calibration File
NOTE: We assume that you are familiar with Adobe Photoshop; if you are not,
refer to the instruction manuals that accompany that product.
In this section you will install the special software driver provided with
the camera back for use with Adobe Photoshop software as well as a
calibration file for your camera back. Then you can use the driver to
ensure that the camera back has the latest firmware (camera back control
programming), and to format a PCMCIA card(s). Once the software is
installed, you can also use it regularly to move images and sound files
from the DCS 465 Camera Back to your Macintosh computer by acquiring
them while running your copy of Adobe Photoshop, as described in
chapter 7.
Installing the software is a onetime action; you complete these steps once,
and do not repeat them each time you want to acquire images. The DCS
465 Camera Back can remain connected to the AC battery charger/
adapter while you complete these steps.
1. If your Macintosh computer is not on, turn it on now; after a short
wait you will be in the Finder. (If your Macintosh computer has been
configured to open applications other than the Finder, return to the
Finder now. If Photoshop is running, quit that application.)
2. Locate the diskette labeled “KODAK Driver for ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
Software for use with KODAK Professional DCS 465 Digital Camera
Backs,” and the diskette labeled “KODAK DCS 465 Calibration (CAL)
File: Macintosh.”
IMPORTANT: Make a backup of the calibration diskette; you cannot move
images into Adobe Photoshop without the proper CAL file.
