Canon EOS 20D SLR and Vista x64 support

Canon RAW codec

So, Canon doesn't yet have an x64 Vista RAW codec (as of 2007-07-17). They have a 32-bit codec for Vista, which is specifically noted at not being 64-bit compatible.

Not content with this, I submitted a query (2007-07-18) asking when they would support the RAW codec on a 64-bit Vista platform. This was their response (2007-07-19):
