RAW Support for Sigma Merrill and Sony RX-1

When does Adobe expect to be able to provide RAW support for the Sigma X3F files produced by the DPxMs and the SD-1/SD-1M? I am also interested in RAW support for the soon to be released Sony RX-1 Cybershot FF camera. Thank you for the time and response.

Thanks for the information. As you can probably tell I haven't posted here before. It's where Adobe's FAQ section sent me to "Ask a Question." Therefore, I thought it was the place Adobe looked to for feedback on what customers wanted. I'm not sure why future camera support should be such a secret. In the case of the RX-1, I suspect they will have it fairly quickly as there will be many phtographer's asking for it. In the case of the Sigma's, I suspect that since the cameras have been out for a while now that they are waiting to see how much demand there is for support. The DPxMs are receiving very good reviews for their image quality and it is well deserved in my opinion. I haven't seen the output from any camera that can match it for detail below the Nikon d800 or the Canon 5D MK III and even then it is very close at ISO 100-200. I was surprised at how good 800 ISO can look with these cameras when the tif file is processed in LR 4.2. A comparison of the .jpg processed for best image and the .tif processed for best image in LR 4.2 both at 50%. The .tif cleans up very nicely while preserving significant detail.

Is there Camera RAW support for Lightroom 4.4 and Canon 7D Mark ii?

I need Camera RAW support for Lightroom 4.4 and Canon 7D Mark ii. Is there a Camera RAW version for me?

Thanks for your help. I checked out DNG on YouTube and understand more
about it. I downloaded the DNG converter and transferred in files from my
camera. Then I imported into Lightroom. It works! Thanks again.

RAW Support for Sony

Any idea when RAW support for the Sony Alpha 330a will be added to Aperture 3? I would have thought that most all late model SONY's use the same RAW specs, but I cannot import my RAW pictures at this point. Thanks

Sonyman,
only Apple knows the answer to your question.
If I had to guess, I would say it is likely that the V3 will not be supported. That camera was announced in August 2004; chances are that Apple will add support for RAW format of new cameras before they worry about old ones.
Then again, that is only my guess.

HT201071 When will RAW support for Pentax K3 be available for OSX and Aperture 3, finally? Really very much waiting for it!!!

We're all other users here, so can't answer that question. You can request it by submitting feedback here:

HT4757 RAW support for the SONY RX100?

Anyone know when will Apple be adding RAW support for the SONY RX100?

Unfortunately this is a user forum, so no-one can answer that one for you. You can use the feedback option in aperture to request it though. More than likely it wont come until Canon or Nikon release some more DSLRs, which is usually what prompts an update. For what it's worth you can use the Adobe DNG converter which will convert the sony .arw file into a .dng file that Aperture can read. It is another step to your workflow but you can do it.

Support for Sigma DP2M x3f

When will support for the above camera be available in LR4 or CS6 ( I have both) ?
Thks

Jim Stop and think what you are saying. Take a look at the number of cameras that aresupported and are continually supported under LR or Photoshop.Sigma wants to sell cameras right ? The camerain question is nothing more than a Foven in a body ...full stop. You would thing is you wantto sell what is a good sensor (not camera) for landscapes and you are trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear from a camera function standpoint you would appeal to the editing audience that use LR and Photoshop. They can't do anything about the camera's functionsat this point but they sure could from a workflow perspective. Any review on this camera is all about the great sensorand all the negatives (and there are tons) is all about functionality.   It does not seem to matterto other camera manufactures that they share their proprietary file formats because they want theirpotential buyers to be able to edit under some of the best editing software currentlyavailable and if you are already an Adobe user that may have some bearing whether youbuy the camera or not. It's not rocket science. To further support my contention I havegarnered the Sigma distributor in Canada's support on this particular issue. In other words it makes not sense tothem either, if Sigma wants to sell anything with a Foven then have raw supported in LR andPhotoshop. Most upgrades in LR and Photshop are to add the new cameras as they come on stream except Sigma Foven. As to being asenseless discussion I disagree...Sigma owners need to howl like hell to get their attention andsmarten up ! Sigma's first foray with the sensor was in the high end arena. It went nowhereand they finally had to blow them out a fire sale prices. I think they are a buck short whenit comes to marketing their Foven sensor products. They should stick to lenses. They get thatright sometimes. t

As long as we have to continue to deal with proprietary raw formats this issue is not going to be resolved satisfactorily for the consumers. There has been very little cooperation, as far as I know, between camera manufacturers and Adobe. And why should there be? Some camera makers (Nikon for one) sell their own software. So, why would they want to cooperate with Adobe? Adopting the DNG format would be a solution, but not very many camera makers are going in that direction. And until acceptance is much more widespread I'm not interested in using DNG. I suppose this discussion could go on for pages. But it's kind of senseless. Adobe provides support as quickly as it can. But there is never in any indication beforehand telling us what to expect.

Why no RAW support for Fuji X10?

The Fuji X10 has been on the market for almost a year now and there still is no RAW support for it in Aperture. Why?

Only Apple can asnwer the "Why?" questions, I'm afriad.
Aperture menu -> Provide Aperture Feedback and let them know you want it.

Camera Raw Support for Canon 7D MkII

Just trying to get some idea if I should spend the $99.00 to buy Aperture from the Apple Store. This might sound a little over the top, but the work flow I miss by not having RAW support in Lightroom is worth the expense of buying Aperture.
I do find it very disappointing that Adobe have not as yet provided support for the new Canon 7D MkII. This will be a VERY popular camera.
More importantly I find this tardiness on Adobe's part very disappointing because they market CC buy saying "You will always have up to date software". When you consider Apple and Google Picasa have both already supported the Canon 7D MkII. I might add they both had support for the camera within days of it's release on 31 of Oct.
So after my little rant.
Can anybody from Adobe advise when we will see Camera Raw support the new Canon 7DMkII?
Even if it is in Beta form I would be very happy to be a Beta tester. I have very extensive experience in testing software and would be prepared to do structured Beta testing. I would be very happy if someone from Adobe Labs would contact me for the purpose of Beta testing Camera Raw support for the 7D MkII.
Kind Regards
Tom Croll

Thanks ssprengel, you have clearly put into words what is currently reality at Adobe, and confirmed my suspicion of Aperture being a dead product. Although Google's Picasa is not dead.
I do realize Adobe Products are very well developed and software does take time to perfect before it gets released. I have been in the software development game for 35 years
But Camera RAW is an adjunct to Lightroom, Photoshop, Premier Pro etc. As such the support for new camera models should be a relatively simple exercise and should not be held up by other R&D on the products that Camera Raw plugs into. I believe they have in the past released updates to Camera Raw that essentially was just for new camera models. I do realize I could be wrong on this point, but I fail to see why they can't achieve this outcome.
Also, as I said Adobe Market Creative Cloud membership saying you will always be up to date. Or words to that effect.
To have an Adobe support person get upset because he has a large number of people pestering Adobe, and not him personally, trying to get ans answer as to the timing of the release of support for a new camera model, quite frankly is totally unacceptable. Not acceptable to the customers and not acceptable to the poor support person who has to handle disgruntled customers due to poor planning on Adobe's part.
In my original post I made a very serious offer to do Beta Testing on support for the Canon 7DMkII Raw files. But when i last checked with Adobe Labs the current Beta does not include support for this camera.
There maybe extenuating circumstances around the timely supply of this support. Like when did Canon provide the Specs for the 7D MkII and are those specs so different from other currently supported models. Even some feedback as to what the problem is, would help us understand.
I hope I have expressed my thoughts objectively and hope this discussion stream will get to management at Adobe. In fact I am very inclined to ensure it does get to senior management. I don't want to start writing a personal letter to the Chairman of Adobe's Board, but sometimes things do need a shake up.

RAW support for Olympus E-5

I upgraded my E-510 to an E-5 last month (the E-5 was only released in November) and discovered that I can't process my RAW files in CS5. Does anyone know when, or how long it will be before, RAW support for the camera will be available?
Yes, I know I can use the Olymus software to process the files, but I prefer PhotoShop.

You might get an answer in the Camera Raw forum.

[Consolidation-Locked] Please add RAW support for the Nikon D600 to Lightroom as soon as possible!

My Fair Adobe,
Please add RAW support for the Nikon D600 to Lightroom as soon as possible!
ViewNX lets me get to the images, but come on!!! I know Lightroom, and you, ViewNX, are no Lightroom.
Yes, I see everyone else ASKING for D600 support. I'm here to beg for it! Don't make me wait much longer!

Rob, my reading of your site is that this plug-in copies settings from raw to jpeg, does it work the other way around as well?
Rob Cole wrote:
One of the great things about the new 0-based defaults and linear tone curve is:
You can develop the jpegs now, in Lightroom, and then sync the settings to the raws later (e.g. using RawPlusJpeg), and provided you select a matching camera profile, they will look almost the same (white balance won't translate over, but everything else will, more or less). Beware lens corrections applied to the raws might alter the registration of precision local adjustments.
Note: I recommend shooting with ADL off in order for this to work better, and consider turning sharpening off in camera as well, and noise reduction and everything else to whatever extent is possible.

No Raw support for Olympus e620

Cant believe aperture 3 does not have raw support for the Olympus E620. I am nearly ready to upgrade. Can Apple get there act together on this.

Harass the company - go to
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
select Aperture
and request support for the cameras that you use and want to be supported
Tell them you will have to migrate to LightRoom if they do not support the camera.
Now that Apple have moved to a new version of the Raw converter program they have little excuse for not adding these cameras.

When will the RAW support for Nikon DF be release?

Anyone know when they will release the RAW support for Nikon DF?

Anyone who knows that, would not be allowed to post this information here. Only the Apple developers could tell you, and they never announce this kind of information in advance, sorry.

Raw Support for Panasonic LX-5

In trying to keep aware of when raw support might be added for my 2 month old LX-5 I came across an update that someone had referenced from January of this year that added raw support for the LX-5 and some other cameras, when I tried to download it my computer said the latest update on my computer was newer than that. Does that mean I should already have it? If not does anyone know when it will be added? When I first took pictures with my camera I had images saved in raw and j-peg and i photo only recognized the j peg formatted pictures. The j pegs are beautiful but I would like to experiment with raw.

I reply now only to validate my ignorance..
I think what happened is the update that added the lx-5 raw support came out a couple weeks after I got the camera, so I tried it initially and was not able to import raw files and gave up and went to j peg. I tried again this morning after posting, and have been happily dealing with raw files all morning.
Love the camera and am glad i photo will allow me to realize all that it can do!

Camera Raw support for new Nikon D810

Hi, could you please advise when we can expect to see camera raw support for the new nikon D810.
Thanks

Adriana – I installed the download from the link in the 7/27 post and was able to convert my NEF files to DNG format from my new D810 camera, but could not view/edit the NEF-smalls. When I saw your latest post I used your link to go to that download and noticed that in the description it mentioned that the issues with the D810 NEF-small have been resolved. I deleted/emptied trash of the 7/27 download and re-installed the one mentioned from your link – although they were both identical in file size and version: 8.6 – hmm? I tried the converter – but nothing new was converted (I presume because all had already been converted before?). However, CS6 is still not able to open/edit neither the NEF-small file formats, nor the DNG created from it. I am thinking maybe I am missing a step, because when I select properties for Camera Raw in CS6, the version is 8.5.0.236 – is that ok (my CS6 version is 13.0.6 – and no other updates appear available)? I only downloaded the DNGConverter_8_6.dmg; installed the .pkg – did I forget a step? Thanks for your help!

RAW support for Olympus XZ-1?

With the Olympus XZ-1 quickly gaining ground as one of the most popular compact-enthusiast cameras, I'd think Apple would be very keen on getting RAW support for the camera into Aperture. We're going on six months since the camera's release, and still not there. Does anyone have any line, at all, as to if/when this is going to happen?

Keith Barkley wrote:
"much"? Considering that Canon and Nikon have a huge share of the market, it is unlikely that Apple lost very many customers because of this.
What I said was Historically Apple has lost much market share to Adobe Light Room through slow support for important cameras... That does include slow support for new cameras from Nikon and Canon. Why Apple gives up this market share must only be because no one has told Steve it is happening; some VP is not doing his/her job.
