ImageTransferUtility

ImageTransferUtility is a Canon-supplied utility for transferring photos and videos from Canon digital cameras and camcorders to a Mac. It provides an interface for importing media from connected cameras via USB, organizing files by date and camera model, and optionally applying batch operations like resizing or format conversion. The app is typically bundled with Canon camera drivers and is used by photographers and videographers who prefer a dedicated transfer tool over standard file-browser import methods.</description> <parameter name="recommendation">We could not find public information about whether ImageTransferUtility has been updated to a native Apple Silicon build. Canon bundles this utility with camera drivers and support software, and driver support varies by camera model and release cycle. Contact Canon directly — either through your camera model's support page at canon.com/support or via their general macOS drivers section — to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon version of ImageTransferUtility is available for your specific camera. If Canon has not yet released a native build and your utility is running under Rosetta today, be aware that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), at which point an Intel-only version will stop working. As an alternative, modern versions of macOS include native Photo Import functionality in the Photos app and Finder that work directly with USB-connected cameras, so you may be able to migrate to those built-in tools if Canon does not ship a native update in time.
