Adobe Raw and Canon 6D

As an OAP who has recently upgrade my camera to Canon 6D I now find that Photoshop 5.5 will not open the raw files, if I use Lt Room 5.7 no problems (Lt Room 6 just been ordered).as a photographer I mainly use Lt Room. At the last meeting of my local Photographic Society I picked up an old copy (july 2014) PhotoPlus in a discussion on Raw files it show that for my camera I would need to purchase Photoshop 6CC. As some one who uses photoshop on an irregular basis to purchase CC version would not be economical.
Has anyone created a plugin or an update which will help with this?

Yes, you can save directly from Lr to a DNG, backwards compatible to as early as ACR 2.4.

I already use DNG to convert Yes it works but still not acceptable it should if anything work as Lightroom 5.5 does and have Adobe Camera Raw built in or at least a method of automatically opening the converter from within cs5 as you open an individual picture.
Lightroom doesn't actually use Camera Raw, it has the same interface built in. Camera Raw versions newer than 6.7.1 simply are not supported in CS5. You'll have to use the DNG converter or Lightroom to convert.

Why do my raws look different when I view them in Adobe Bridge/Adobe Camera Raw and Canons Digital P

Hello all,
I am sorta new to taking Raw photographs and I have been been using Adobe Bridge/Camera Raw to edit. When I take my photos (I am using a Canon t2i) I have it set to save a raw and a jpg. When I view these images in Adobe Bridge/Camera Raw I notice a clear difference in the jpg and raw (I understand the whole concept behind raw vs. jpg. so im not questioning why one looks different) It is obvious all the adjustments that were applied to my jpg. vs the natural raw. My question is: When I view the same two images in the software that came with my camera, canon digital photo professionals, the canon and raw look almost identical.... My assumption is that canon is applying the same "adjustments" to my raw as it did to the jpgs? Has anyone used these two programs and noticed this?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Michelle

Can't say I'm an expert on DPP myself either. I've only run it a few times myself.
If you're seeing Photoshop freeze just by looking at the File Info tab, that's certainly not expected and you should start a tread specifically to discuss that. The forum may be able to help you get that working.
I happen to like the color my camera delivers in its embedded JPEGs (which I use to quickly review shots via IrfanView). Starting with that color in Camera Raw by default just feels very natural and integrated.
Without a specific custom profile to help you with the task, here's my suggestions for the next best thing:
1. Take an image with a range of different colors in it.
2. Open the embedded JPEG also using whatever means you have to do so.
3. Open it also in Camera Raw and make sure you're using the Camera Raw default parameters.
4. Go into the Camera Calibration tab (little camera icon), and choose the Camera Standard profile as provided by Adobe.
5. Tweak the various sliders so as to match the color between what you're seeing in the JPEG and Camera Raw.
6. Save new Camera Raw defaults.
Some notes:
Make sure you leave the White Balance on As Shot, since storing a specific white balance is probably not going to be helpful.
Test your settings and repeat the above to tweak them as needed using other images.
Keep in mind that not every application does proper color-management. IrfanView can be set up to do so, and I don't recall whether you have to tweak a default setting to make it do that or not (it's been a while).
Hope this helps!

Adobe CS4 and Canon Scanner LiDE35

I have Adobe CS4 and a Canon LiDE35 scanner. (Mac OS X 10.5.6)
Although I've downloaded the latest scanner driver from Canon, the scanner is unrecognized in, for example, CS4's Photoshop.
I have a temporary work-around: Haven't yet uninstalled the CS2 that CS4 replaced. Looks like I can scan into CS2, save, close, and reopen in CS4.
Anybody know how to get this scanner to play well with CS4?
Thanks.
Andy

"Seems silly to use $1000 application as a UI for a scanner that costs less than $100"
Yep, plus the Canon "toolbox" was handy for other scanner uses, too. (Faxing, copying, etc.)
I deleted the latest Canon Toolbox software and reinstalled the older toolbox that came on disc with the scanner. It works fine with Mac OS X 10.5.6. Strange that the newer TB doesn't.
I'll give Canon an "A" for effort in the customer service department, though. Direct emails from me have been replied to promptly and personally.
The only suggestion I haven't tried that Canon suggests is moving the scanner connection from a USB hub directly to the computer.
Might check out VueScan anyway.

JPEG color difference between Adobe Raw and Microsoft Image Viewer

When I calibrate my monitor or use the monitors ICC file which came with the Monitor, there is a color difference between Camera Raw image and the JPEG I save from Camera Raw, displayed in Microsoft Image Viewer.
However, if I make my ICC file for the system to be SRGB Color Space Profile, and go through the same conversion, the JPEG image created and viewed in Microsoft Image viewer is identical to the one seen in Camera Raw.
It appears therefore, that the operating system only uses SRGB Color Space profile for Microsoft Imaging Viewer?
Most people I give photos to, do in fact look at them in microsoft viewer.
How can I use the ICC profile for my calibrated monitor and end up with the same results in terms of color with Camera Raw and Microsoft image and Fax Viewer.

All profiles are not created equal. There's a basic version issue (ICC v4 vs. earlier), and profiles are complex things containing many fields. Lots of things can go wrong in the creation of a proper color transform from the combination of the document and device profiles, and it kind of depends on what color management code the software uses whether it can be done properly. Adobe has their own - the Adobe Color Engine - and there are others such as LittleCMS or even Microsoft's system-provided ICM that application designers may be using in their code.
It may be that the profile your calibrator/profiler has produced for your monitor (or other device) isn't compatible with every application. It happens.
This isn't intended to provide a solution or workaround, just to help explain things a bit.

Camera Raw and Canon S95 Not Recognised

Hi,
I have bought the extremely expensive Photoshop CS5 in summer and I have been waiting Camera Raw opens Raw files shooted with my compact camera Canon Powershot S95 (on the market since August).
Can you please fix the problem or should I wait till the next model of compact camera?
Thank you

Note that there is a Camera Raw 6.3 beta copy available. I don't know whether it understands your camera.
You might have better luck posting this question in the Camera Raw forum, if you have not already done so: http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw

Camera Raw and Canon 70D

I just got a Canon 70D. Great camera, but having trouble opening the CR2 files. I have a Creative Suite 5. I tried doing an update to the version 6.7 that is needed. I found the files and updated to a recent version 6.7.1.340. That is what my camera raw lists now, however I am still not having luck with the CR2. I am not want an upgrade of the who Photoshop at the moment and only asking to upgrade the option to make me see my 70D files. Do I need to upgrade just for that? I downloaded a DNG converter 8.2 for now to do the work I need, but what should I do? I searched around and had little success. Troubleshooting issues like that can be time intensive especially on days when you cannot just contact support. Thanks
Brent

Your camera requires Camera Raw 8.2, which is not compatible with your version of Photoshop. You will either have to use the DNG converter, and Lightroom to your workflow, or upgrade your Photoshop.

RAW and Canon G2

Does anyone know how to get Canon G2 RAW files into iPhoto 5+?

I also have a G2 and the iPhoto 5 help info says that they focused on SLR type cameras in this first attempt with RAW. Future versions would be adding more cameras to the supported list. So far I havent found the specs for iPhoto 6 that list the supported cameras. Bummer for us !!

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log in

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log into CC since I am not a subscriber, and this means that I have to work around, and go back to Bridge, and tell it to open the file in Adobe RAW. However, this does not work for older psd files which for some reason cannot be opened in RAW. How do I return to the process of simply allowing RAW files to open automatically in Adobe RAW, and simply right clicking on the image in Bridge to bring up the option of opening it in Photoshop?

Adobe Camera Raw and using a Canon 5D Mark2

I wanted to share my learning curve about this problem for CS3 users and below who use a Canon 5dMk 2.
My previous workflow had been to convert all my CR2 files to Adobe DNG using Lightroom version 2 which works fine. However I have started using DXO Optics Pro v 5+ which is unable at present to read the DNG files.
So I now use DXO to convert the CR2 files into Linear DNGs which I can then use in PS and LR etc. What I didn't realize is that PS is unable to read the native RAW CR2 files from the Canon as the minimum ACR specification is 5.2! CS3 ACR is stuck at 4.6.
If you were only using PS CS3 you would be unable to read your RAW files created using the Canon.
Just thought this might be helpful for anyone out there.
I back up and archive all my original CR2 files to a separate hard drive in case I need access to them in the future. Interestingly there is a very technical discussion out there about Linear DNG vs Adobe DNG and the potential merits/ demerits of the two formats.
As I have a large library of Adobe DNG files I would hope that DXO optics Pro is in future able to access these.

Correction:
<If you were only using PS CS3 you would be unable to read your RAW files created using the Canon.>
This is not meant to read as it sounds. Yes you can use CS3 with Canon 5DMk 2 files provided they have been converted to DNGs.

I am trying to update Adobe Bridge and Photoshop CS6, because it is not opening my CR2 files taken by my Canon 6D. I have tried to go to help > updates, and the software says that it is "Up to Date". However, if I view the plug-in, it says that Camera Raw is only version 7.1. I can not find a direct download for Camera Raw 7.3, only the DNG converter, NOT CAMERA RAW! Please Help!

Canon 7D Mark II Raw and Elements 13

I can't open Raw files from this camera with Elements 13. When I download Adobe Raw version 8.7 it doesn't seem to install.
What can I do?
Mary Lou

Well, Yes,
Should she uninstall and start over? But, only from her disk. PE 13 should have the plug- in installed , PE 9 does and it is dead simple, my wife uses it on craft work..
Sometimes the download is corrupted, but, the main problem I have found is with the installation of unzipping and where to place it.?.A novice will have heaps of trouble with this unless you get 99jon to walk her through it.
As Jon says the Canon Digital Professional Software is more than capable and it works.. The file is automatically saved to the folder you nominate in MY Pictures. No plug ins , No installation issues. That is you Save & Convert in one stroke..
If your student does not know her way around a computer she may get lost, initially..
Get her to install Canon DPP off her disk , sometimes the professional software is easier to use than Photoshop Elements. #### and try it .

I have a Mac with photoshop CS6 regularly updated. I am unable to read RAW images CANON Power shot G16 /ADOBE LISTING WAS of NO HELP

Is there any one who could let me know how to read Raw images Canon power shot g16? I tried all I could and followed the suggestions given by ADOBE but noting works. I see the images with other program but I cannot work on them.

Check your version of Camera Raw installed: Help (Win)/Photoshop (Mac) > About Plug-in > Camera Raw.
If it is less than 8.2, it won't work with this camera.
If it is less than 8.6, you don't have all the updates installed.

RAW output to an adobe rgb and srgb look identical in bridge but different in PS on wide gamut monitor.

Photoshop CS6. Wide gamut HP LP2475w monitor. Spider 3 Elite calibrated. Working space adobe rgb. When outputting a raw to Adobe RGB jpg it looks a bit whacked with color blotches/jumps in PS. The sRGB of it does not. BUT......in bridge they look identical. The adobe rgb jpg almost acts like viewing an image in a non-color aware browser on a wide gamut monitor. Like bridge shows it right but photoshop is showing it whacked out. I can't tell what is lying to me and if there is even a problem with the image. Here is a half second 2 frame gif alternating between the two from a screen cap. http://www.extremeinstability.com/hmm.gif Abrupt blotchy color changes with the adobe rgb when viewed in photoshop. And again, when you look at the two images in bridge they don't show that, they look identical.
Thanks,
Mike

I guess I now learned that Bridge only generates srgb previews. So I see them the same in there I guess. Looks like it comes down to the adobe space and jpg. Oddly enough an 8 bit adobe tiff covers it fine without breaking up. Can see the 3 on this gif. http://www.extremeinstability.com/3.gif
