Can't See RAW Previews Import Direct From Camera

v. 1.4.1
Hi. I tried to import RAWs directly from a Canon XTi to LR 1.4.1 and couldn't see the images in the preview window. Is there a way to fix that? Thanks.

Hi Jay,
I wasn't really concerned about the speed. I rarely read more than one card (400 10MP RAW images) at a time. But will a card reader allow me to see the previews?

    I have just updated to LR5.  I also have a new Camera.  Nikon D800.  Trying to import directly (from camera) into LR.  But unsuccessful. Getting the following message.  "The files are from a camera which is not recognised by the raw format support in Lightroom."  How can I import please?

    Hi,
    I assume you mean the Nikon D810 because D800/800E support has been there since Lightroom 4.1
    Currently, because it is a new camera (D810) the only support is in a RC of ACR 8.6 for Photoshop CS6 and CC, as the RC runs out on 31 August it is expected support will be there in the next dot release of Lightroom.
    Current limitations are that only full sized NEF is supported.
    If you wish to import to Lightroom 5.5. you will need to download the DNG Converter v8.6RC and convert the NEF files (full size RAW ony) to DNG then import into Lightroom 5.5

  • LR displays "no preview available" upon import direct from camera after last update. How do I fix this?

    I have the latest LR update with Nikon D700 and import directly from camera. I purchased a new CF card in case the old one was the problem but I get the same thing with the new card. Is there a bug in the last update or is this a problem with my equipment?

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • When I copy files from my camera to my C drive and import to PP there isn't any meta data when I import direct from camera it is available.

    My camera is a Sony HDR-CX730 AVCHD format
    Software is Windows 7 and CS6 Production Suite
    When importing images direct from the camera all metadata such as dates, time etc is available in PP
    When files are  copied from the camera to C Drive on the computer and then imported into PP the metadata is lost.
    What do I need to do?

    Thought it might have been the case. My GH3 also shoots both AVCHD and MOV/H.264  files. With the GH3, the AVCHD is both more complicated (on account of the folder structure) and a slight bit noisier ... with no other image quality gain. So I've done as most folks, shot really only the MOV with it.
    But that first bit of shooting with it ... um ... naive, shall we say? ... after 35+ years of pro stills portrait shooting, and more than a decade totally digital, well ... yea, I just grabbed the image files too. As do an awful lot of people. A very common thing to solve around here!

  • AVCHD 1080 Import direct from Cam

    Gibt es eine Möglichkeit wie beim MAC die Videos in Full-HD direkt zu importieren um sie auf dem iPad zumindest zu schneiden? Die finale Bearbeitung möchte ich auch weiterhin auf dem MAC machen. Dann hätte ich weniger zu schleppen wenn ich unterwegs bin und könnte die freie Zeit schon zum Aussortieren nutzen.
    english(not so perfect) Can I AVCHD 1080p Videos import in the iPad for first steps? (Cut) The finally work can I do later on my MAC.

    It's a shame, but there's no way of directly importing avchd files directly to the ipad. They have to be imported onto a MacBook, iMac or Mac mini and then converted. If your camera supports recording in mp4 or mov format then it can be transferred, but only in 30p which doesn't really give you that nice film look. My canon 5d records in mov format only and it easily transfers directly onto the ipad, but my sony nex will only transfer directly if I choose the mp4 format for recoding in the image size menu. If only sony allowed for recording in 60p and 24p in mp4 formats..... Sigh.... And on we wait....

  • Preview of CR2 raw files on import window from camera

    Hi
    I have this problem with my Canon XTI. When I connect the camera to the computer and open the import dialog window, I can not see the previews of my CR2 raw files. But if I copy the CR2 files to he hard disk and try tho import from it, then previews are shown on the import window.
    Can anybody help me?

    Probably because the program is trying to write back a marker to the card as it "opens" the images for the preview and the camera won't let it.
    It's not a good idea to import images directly from the camera anyway. Card readers are really cheap - and they WILL let you see the previews.

  • Not able to import canon raw CR2 photos direct from a camera into Lightroom 5.5

    I’ve just purchased Lightroom 5 and updated it with the latest version 5.5, and I am running windows 7.  Everything appears to be working fine, however I am not able to import Canon CR2 raw files directly from my camera.  Importing JPEG files directly from camera works fine, however Lightroom can not find any CR2 raw files? 
    If I copy the raw files through the Canon utility tool on to my hard drive, it appears I am then able to import into my Lightroom catalogue, as Lightroom is then able to see these files on my hard drive.  However why can not Lightroom see these files on my Canon 450D camera and import directly from there in Lightroom?
    Are there any setting or preference I need to change to be able to do this?

    Are you able to import 450D raw files into LR5.5via USB connection and are you on Windows 7/8?
    I agree with your observations concerning SD vs CF card fragility, but they also have a limited number of insertions before failure.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Durability
    The newer Micro-USB receptacles are designed for up to 10,000 cycles of insertion and removal between the receptacle and plug, compared to 1,500 for the standard USB and 5,000 for the Mini-USB receptacle. This is accomplished by adding a locking device and by moving the leaf-spring connector from the jack to the plug, so that the most-stressed part is on the cable side of the connection. This change was made so that the connector on the less expensive cable would bear the most wear instead of the more expensive micro-USB device.
    All my Canon cameras have micro-USB connectors. With one (1) insertion and removal per day that equals 10,000 days, or about 27 years before end-of-life! SD and CF cards are also rated at ~10,000 insertion and removals, but more prone to damage from static electricity and handling due to the exposed contacts and fragility of CF card sockets.
    So there's no real advantage from the camera wear perspective to using a card reader. I'd say use whatever method is easiest for your workflow, but handle memory cards with care and avoid exposing them to static discharge.  Ground yourself to something metal before removing memory cards and inserting them into the card reader, especially in cold Winter months.
    BTW- I helped design one of the first semiconductor DRAM memory systems back in 1970. We killed more memory chips than I care to count before we discovered they were easily damaged by static electricity. Today's ICs have built-in protection, but you can still damage them with a big enough static ZAP!

  • Raw files missing in import direct from canon eos 350D

    Hi,
    I realise that files missing for import is fairly common, but I still haven't been able to find a reason. I can load jpg and cr2 from a folder no problem, but when I attach the camera, using the latest canon WIA driver on windows xp, the window that comes up shows only the jpgs on my camera. I realise that a workaround is to get the files on the pc and import from there, but I don't have my canon software anymore to do that, and besides, I'm using the trial version to decide whether or not to buy. Is this a LR problem? a canon one? and is there a fix in the pipeline?
    Apart from that, really like the product.
    Many thanks
    Dave

    Dave
    There was a problem with version 1.0 about importing JPG's and RAW's because although they have a different suffix i.e. JPG or CR2 they have the same file name. LR, as primarily a RAW converter sees these as one and the same file and only imported the RAW file. The work round for this was to rename the JPG's slightly outside of LR using a name that you could yourself identify with the original RAW e.g. RAW 0000001.crs with the JPG being renamed to 0000001A.JPG followed by Importing. I had thought they had cured this with the update but as I don't shoot JPG + RAW haven't tried this for myself. What's strange about your post though, is that if memory serves me correctly the problem lay not in the Importing of the RAW file but in the JPG file as described above. Perhaps someone with more up to date knowledge of this will jump in here.
    The importing directly from the camera I referred to earlier was a known problem with Canon cameras - perhaps something to do with the folder structure although I couldn't swear to it. Hence the reference to using a Card Reader. In any event downloading from a Card Reader is faster as I'm sure you know.
    If you right click and explore the Card you'll find that not all of the files are empty. The top folder will be something like DCM and by double clicking on this top folder it will open up the others.

  • Can't Import Directly from Card Reader or Camera anymore

    I am using aperture 2.x and all of a sudden I can't import directly from my G9, 30D or San Disk card reader anymore. I have to copy files locally first to make this work.
    This is what happens: I can see and select the thumbnails off the card just fine but when I select all and import it immediately says "0 files imported".
    Any ideas?

    For the record, the workflow you describe is a good way to lose image data. The anomalies that you are experiencing should be a clue; you could just as easily be losing image data.
    I guess it just depends on how important the images are to each individual photog,

    I can't see .NEF files in finder from mi NIkon D7100. Helllp !!!!!
    I can open NEF files in Camera Raw but Im not seeing tumbs in finder !
    Also I cant see them in preview too.

    Well, I don't know what the problem actually is in the first place, it should work as is, I think something is messed up with the present driver and replacing it would perhaps get around that problem.
    It seems like I'd be adding one more layer of complexity to the Vista machine...
    Not sure how the Vista machine is involved in this, since these are drivers for the Mac.
    Though to involve the Vista Machine, One option not mentioned yet is MacDrive for you PCs... allows them to Read/Write HFS+...

    How  can I see the previews of my D610 in bridge cs5 and how can I open them in my CC photoshop?

    Nah. Raw support is version specific and that extends to Bridge as well. Older versions simply won't handle new cameras. If this is important to you, you will have to use Bridge CC.

  • How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

    How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

    I have an XA10, and importing is quite simple.  But you do have to make sure your camera is set to the proper settings to allow you to import the files into FCPX.
    First, make sure the camera is powered on.  Connect it through the USB connection.  Then open the camera's viewfinder and press the button on the side of the camera that allows you to see the videos you've shot in the viewfinder.  (This toggle button toggles between seeing what the camera is pointed at live and seeing the thumbnails of the video you've already shot that are stored on the internal memory card.)  Now, the camera will present you with a menu asking which memory card you want to look at (there's an internal flash memory card, plus you can insert SD cards as well).  Choose the memory card on which your videos are stored within the camera, and then you'll be good to go.
    Now you can go into your FCPX event and do the Import from Camera.  Now the Import from Camera interface will open up and you'll be able to select the XA10, where it will present you with all the videos that are on the camera's memory card that you selected.
    From here,  you can select individual videos and import them, or you can set in and out points on videos and just import the parts you want.

  • How can I process raw files in Aperture from a Sony RX1?

    How can I process raw files in Aperture from my Sony RX1?

    Here is a list of supported cameras
    <http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html>
    Your Sony RX1 is not listed. Your best bet would be to use the software, that came with your camera to convert the raw files to tiff and to import the tiff to Aperture. Or to shoot raw+jpeg and to import the pairs and to work with the jpeg versions as original master files, until Aperture supports your camera.
