I assume you set the camera to take RAW. How are you transferring? What software do you have? Open the card folders, copy and paste everything to your hard drive. If you don't have a raw converter, you won't seen them in Windows.

Confirm that you are saving in RAW. You can do this by checking the top LCD screen. You should see the word RAW appear in one of the boxes.

If it is you should also see the file name with the CR2 extension, this is a Canon RAW file. Now in order to view the images you need software that candecode the data. Canon supply DPP with the 30D this software will read Canon RAW files. Photoshop and Lightroom will also decode these files, as will versions of Photoshop Elements.

I seem to remember that Windows did have an image viewer that would read RAW files, but as I have been a Mac user for a few years now I'm not sure what it was and under what OS it worked ( I suspect it was XP as that's the last Microsoft OS I used )
