Lauching Lr import window with Canon Utility 2.8.1.0

Hi
Using a Canon 7D I have configured the Canon Utility to lauch Lr when the Utility opens & begins to download images from the camera. (see attached file)
And Lr opens OK, and goes straight to import, but then only shows say the first few images (even if there are say 100 actually imported) (see image)
I can get ALL the images to show if I close & reopen the import dialogue, but it seems like if LR does open at this import dialogue box, then it should show ALL images ready to import wouldn't you think?
Its not a major problem, but seems like a software bug and could mislead a user
ANy suggestions / fixes?
thanks in advance

Mucx,
The 50D is supposed to be a bit "noisier" than its predecessors according to some reviews, but at ISO 100, you should not be seeing any. The full suite of Canon software including DPP should have come with it. Before this is a Lightroom issue, you should make sure it isn't the camera. Try DPP and see what the RAW images look like there. Better yet Grab a screen shot of the two side by side if they are different, and post that.

  • Import failed with canon 6d footage after latest update

    After I updated to Final Cut X 10.0.8, I've been getting "Import Failed" messages during the import process when taking in footage from my Canon 6D
    The import process also seems to be going very slow (slower than usual)
    I've tried duplicating the SD card locally on the hard drive and re-importing, but have gotten the same results.
    If I click OK on the error dialogue box, the import will continue. but another box will pop up every 5 to 10 minutes or so
    Any ideas?

    Hey Russ, it actually works fine for me too the few times I've used it but I point it out as a common denominator with people who have trouble importing that way. Separating the .mov files into their own folder eliminates the camera and card reader, both much slower than just transfering files from a connected drive. But I'm doing newspaper video with Canon DSLRs - including 5D3 video, similar to 6D - almost daily where speed is of the essence and this is by far the most foolproof method I've come across.

  • Fundamental importing problems with Canon PowerShot

    when i connect my camera, a Canon PowerShot SD300 [digital elph] to my new MacBook Pro and turn the camera on, it opens iPhoto [6.0.6] and asks if i would like to import photos. i click "import," and tell it not to import duplicates. it tells me the count remaining and says its importing. i can wait any length of time and the number never goes down.
    it has sort of successfully imported photos in the past [hence the 'do not import previous' above], but it seems to skip some photos and also downloads the same movies [avi's] each time.
    is this bizarre behavior common? thanks for any help!
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   iPhoto 6.0.6 (322)

    Dan,
    There is a problem with iPhoto 6 not respecting the "do not import duplicates" when importing directly from cameras. It obeys better when importing from a folder already on your hard drive.
    iPhoto can also balk at longer video clips. I can import shorter clips (under 1 minute) directly into iPhoto, but have had iPhoto crash with long (3 minutes or more) clips.
    Here's how I import from my Canon. I place the card in a USB card reader. This mounts on the Desktop as an external drive. [Many cameras do this, but most Canon models do not.] When I plug the card reader into my USB hub, I ignore iPhoto's "ready to import" dialog. Instead, I do File > Import to Library. I navigate to my camera card on the desktop, where I can preview the photos and select only the ones I need to import. I import all the pictures first. When they are in my library, I go back and select the video clips, one at a time. It can take a few minutes to import one, and there is no progress indicator, so I have to wait patiently.
    If iPhoto crashes on the video clips, I open Image Capture, choose "Download Some" and select one clip at a time to upload to my Desktop. Given enough time, the clips will import successfully. Once on the Desktop, iPhoto has not had any trouble importing them.
    If you don't have a card reader, you can use Image Capture to import all the files from your camera. Upload to a folder on your Desktop, then import that folder to iPhoto and delete it when done. In Image Capture's Preferences is the setting for what happens when you connect your camera or card reader. You can leave it set to iPhoto, change it to Image Capture, or set it to Nothing.
    If you have had to cancel an import, then there may be an extra folder inside your iPhoto Library folder. In the Finder look just inside Pictures/ iPhoto Library and see if there is a folder called "Import" (or "Importing"). If there is, drag it out to your Desktop and see if it contains photos that you need for your library. Make no other changes inside the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder, as changes made this way can damage your library. If there is no Import folder, then you are in good shape.
    Regards.

  • When will the File menuitem on OS X be released after having opened and cancelled out of the Import window with Fx 4 beta 12?

    This [http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4186/screenshot20110226at124.png (Image)File menuitem not released after closing Import window.]
    It has been there since early Firefox 4 betas. With 3.6 and 3.5 of Firefox it happened with the Tools and Bookmarks menuitem, also on Leopard and Snow Leopard the same way like the screenshot above. It happens more often that I would like. I'm not in the File menu at all and yet it's highlighted. I've closed the Firefox window and reopened a new window but the File menu remains active until I actively press it again or any other menu in the Firefox 4 menubar.
    You can try it by choosing the File menu -> Import and then simply close the Import window and return to Firefox 4 for a browsing session. Does the File menuitem remain active? Happens each time now that I figured out the correct trigger that I mentioned with the Import window.

    Hi Rick & Todd
    thanks for testing & responding
    @ Rick - ProRes cannot be fixed with color management. At all. It is a problem that adobe has setting a correct quicktime gamma flag.
    I am color-tight if re-importing encoded file back in to AE or any other adobe app. When exporting to PR or Quicktime in General, something is going terribly wrong.
    @ Todd - This whole thing did not leave me alone and I have figured out what the problem is (aside from the Quicktime issue)
    If AE's Audio Hardware Preferences is set to anything else than built-in audio this problem occurs. Setting it to Built-in Audio all the issues are remedied.
    @ Todd - I have Crash Reporter Enabled.. but AE never crashes ;-)
    @ Todd - I spent the better half of this year beta testing PT 11 for AVID along with another dedicated set of folks... The reason we test so long prior to release is to get rid of all the small issues that should never surface in a commercial software. Of Course you cannot get all of them but such as testing the audio hardware capabilites of AE prior to a major release should have been cought by the beta crew.. If any.
    The quicktime issues are long standing - how about opening contact with Apple ( you are a developer and entitled to Apple Support) and tell them about the problem. And have them help you.
    I mean, you offer Speedgrade which is a fantastic app, PPRO, AE & PS (All great) but what good is greatness if neihter is able to deliver. The quicktime file is being displayed with a .8955 gamma offset (What one would have to offset the quicktime file by) when viewed in any other app than adobe's That is a lot.

  • Import problems with Canon 1Ds Mk3 raw pictures

    Lightroom 2 does not recognize any raw files from my 1Ds Mk3 - says "found no files to import". It does recognize jpg, though. Lightroom acceps raw pictures from my other camera body, the Canon 1 D Mk3.
    Any pictures imported from these cameras are upside down in the import preview mode but correct after import. The same goes for my Canon G10 camera as well.This upside down phenomena was not any problem with LR 1 - came with the release of LR2.
    Any suggestions out there?

    The problems occur only when importing directly from the cameras
    Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bits
    I'm not trying to be a smart a**, but don't do that! When you d/l from a camera, the OS gets involved in ways that it doesn't when it's seeing merely an external drive, as it does when you use a card reader.
    If you have to d/l from the camera, put them into a directory, then disconnect, then Import.

  • Strange Import Issue with Canon 7D Footage Final Cut Pro X

    I'm hoping some folks can help me here as I'm stumped.
    I shot around 60 minutes of last evening with my Canon 7D.  File sizes ranged from 500MB to 4GB.  I imported from my 8GB memory card a 3.6 GB file and a 500MB file with no issue.  I then moved on to my 16GB memory card, which was full with around 7 clips, and started importing.  I noticed the import was going slow but I was also importing some audio from SD cards on the same card reader, which I've always done in the past, and figured it was just a USB 2.0 bandwidth thing.
    I then got an error regarding the Import Failing (see attachment) but the file appeared to have imported without issue.  Upon further inspection during the import however, I noticed any file larger than 1GB was showing as the PAL codec (after it imports it correctly shows H.264 but more on that later).  I checked the 3.6GB file from my first import and it did not share this issue. While on the shoot I had backed up a number of these files to my iPad so I attempted to import them from there and althought he PAL codec was not listed, I did get the Import Failed error.  I also tried a brand new card reader and a different Event/Destination the issue remained.
    I've restarted, repaired permissions, and the issue remains.  I have never encountered this error and imported a similar amount of footage and clip sizes two weeks ago.  I'm stumped, has anyone else seen this? 

    I did some experiments this morning, and Richard's method worked. Thank you!
    However, I didn't follow Richard's steps 2 & 3.  When importing, I let FCP copy the files to the FC Events folder. It still worked.  In step 1, I did not copy the .THM files to the new folder on my HD.
    I did a second experiment that did not work:
    1) Copy .mov files (only) from CF card to new folder on HD.---no .THM files
    2) "Create Camera Archive" with FCP - Store new archive in its own folder on my HD
    3) Tried importing from the new Camera Archive -  This crashed just like before.
    This tells me FCP is OK with importing individual media files to a FC Event.  It seems to crash when it thinks there's a camera involved.
    Later today I'll try to import some AVCHD files and see if it crashes on import.  For AVCHD footage, you need to rely on FCP's "Import from device" capability.  Those files need to be transcoded to be usable at all.
    More later.

  • New to apple, not a techie. importing problems with canon hv20 - new imac

    hi team
    i'm just starting out, and have honestly tried to look through the boards, but its just to much stuff to read.
    i'm trying to import minidv tapes from canon, newer tape recorded on the canon imports ok on manual.
    older tape recorded on an older canon around 2004-6, which plays in my new canon ok, apart from its not wide screen in the lcd, wont import.
    what's the difference between my new wide screen tape, and my older recorded tape?
    my imac is great, but the tutorials to get started with are smooth and basic, and assume you have no porblems.
    thanks in advance

    thank you for your time team.
    why isn't imovie clever enough to receive my older tape which i guess isn't digital? its hardly ancient technology or tape. if my hv20 plays it, why doesn't imovie just receive it?
    to me its all just movie footage, i'm confused as to why it doesn't give me options or ask me question's about what i'm uploading...
    does imovie only work with digital footage?
    cheers

  • Import movies with Canon A540

    Hello all...
    I've read a number of posts, but I haven't found anything that has solved my problem.
    I am unable to import movies (.avi) into iPhoto 6.0.3 via USB cable. The thumbnail shows on the screen, but the file is never downloaded to the computer. I also tried Image Capture to the same result. Both programs see the file, but do not download it.
    FYI, I have not installed any Canon software.
    Is there something else I can try? Or will I have to get a card reader?
    Thanks!

    Ah! I bought a card reader.

  • Importing Issue with Canon 7D

    I am having a problem when I import my photos into aperture 3. I have the latest update to aperture 3, raw files, and latest camera firmware as well. I have tried 3 different CF cards as well. When I import a new project only a fraction of the photos are imported and aperture says that is wasn't able to import them all. I can repeatedly do an import and all of them will eventually make it into the library, but obviously this is not how it is supposed to work. I have tried importing into iPhoto 11 and everything works fine. I have reinstalled Aperture 3 as well and created a test library in case of library corruption. Any insight from anyone would be great. I have an airshow I am shooting this weekend and this could be a huge pain. Thanks!!

    Recently, I have been experiencing the same problem.
    Aperture 3 will only download a fraction  of files via USB through the camera.
    Card reader or camera, it should work.
    This has never been a problem, this started about four weeks ago.
    Actually, this has only been a problem on my IMAC 24" - my laptop with the same installation of Apeture 3 works as it should; downloads all files on the card via the camera.
    This is something that needs to be reported by all experiencing this challenge and then perhaps there will be a fix.
    So, to get around this, I have tried a card reader ( which is a option ) but once again it should work via the camera.
    Funny, there is no problem to down load with the same camera and the same usb connection and the same card into iphoto

  • Problems importing footage with Canon GL-2

    I'm brand new to Mac & FCP, migrating from Casablanca after 8+ years.
    I've had no luck using the "Capture Batch" option, so I've reverted to "Capture Now"...after reading lots of issues with the gl2. "Capture Now", though very time consuming, seems to work okay. I'll need to break the clips for editing. I'm thinking wedding recepiton (with lots of rec/pause). Using "Mark" then "DV Start/Stop Detect" works nicely, but when I trim the clips and put them in the timeline with a transition (such as page peel), the clip somehow continues past the end. For example, as the page is peeling back, the same piece of video is under the page...then it cuts to the next piece of footage, and continues the peel. FYI, all transitions do the same. I'm just using it as an example.
    However, if I trim the pieces of video and put them in the timeline instead of using the above proceedure, the transitions work perfectly. BUT, unless I use the method above, I'll have to scrub through hours of footage. The Casablanca has an "auto split" option. I dump the footage, hit the button, and end up with a bunch of perfectly cut clips. FCP has to have something similar...
    Thanks in advance for your input

  • 1.1 bug: Import window from Canon XT not sorted by date correclty

    This was in 1.0.1 as well. When I first plug my XT in and it goes to import the images, they are not sorted correctly. Clicking on the thumbnail will show that the image dimensions and date/time are that of the the thumbnail, and not the original image. If I close the import panel by clicking on the arrow in the top left, and then click it again to open the import again, it usually sorts the images correctly. If they are sorted wrong, one can't use the auto stack feature by time, because they'll be stacked incorrectly.

    Hi,
    I reported this bug to Apple and it was marked as a Known Issue. I've also found that opening Image Capture.app before opening Aperture cases the imgaes to be sorted correctly.
    See my thread: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2138270#2138270

  • Importing and editing Canon Raw images with iPhoto

    After importing pictures as soon the editing window is open, the picture turn green as showed on the enclosed screenshot. The pictures remain green after edit.
    Already tried to repair disc and permission via recovery function at restart, then because negative,
    Yosemite reinstalled.
    Tried also different ways to import pictures without results.
    Only the pictures imported with Yosemite are affected. Raw files already imported with Mavericks are fine.

    Unfortunately I still have the problem. When importing pictures via Canon Utility in iPhoto, the editing window was fine. But shutting down iphoto and re-opening the problem appears. So the problem is not related to the importing method.
    I confirm that these are the pictures imported after Yosemite intallation. With mavericks it was ok. The old pictures are not affected.
    The problem is also present opening the library in Aperture. Enclosed an example of  my turned "green" Picture

  • Trouble importing RAW from Canon 50D to Lightroom 3.3

    I've searched the forum and can't find much reference to this -- I shoot with a Canon 50 in RAW format only.  When I attempt to import from the camera (File -> Import Photos then select Canon EOS 50D as source) into lightroom 3.3 (same with 3.1, 3.2), no photos appear in the import window.
    As an experiment, when I changed the format to JPEG, the JPEG photos appeared in the dialog as I would expect.
    My operating system is Windows 7 64 and I am using Lightroom 3.3 64-bit version.  In the help menu under the version is says "Camera Raw 6.3"  On the 50D the Raw format is set to "Raw" rather than S-Raw-1 or S-Raw-2.
    I am able to import the photos by importing through the Canon utility and then importing those photos into Lightroom.
    Any help you can give would be appreciated.  File management is starting to become an issue.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the replies.
    First, I don't have a card reader and yes, I probably should get one eventually.  To clarify, import is not slow, it simply does not even attempt to import.  When I connect my 50D with a card full of RAW files, LR detects it but it shows "No Photos Found."  I honestly don't think that it is LR's fault, it really seems like there is some obvious setting I have missed on either my camera or LR.
    Thanks.

    What Tom said.
    Or you may be able to import using a different program - try with Quicktime Player, "New Movie Recording". If the camera appears as an option, it should work.
