Aperture not showing camera settings applied on RAW images

I have the Canon EOS 1D Mark II N. When in-camera settings like contrast, sharpening, etc are applied in camera, then those images are loaded directly from card reader into Aperture the in-camera changes are not applied to the Raw images. The Jpeg images DO show the in-camera settings contrast/sharpening etc being applied. I can take the memory card and load those same images into DPP Digital Photo Professional and the settings applied in camera do show on the BOTH Raw and Jpeg files.
In Aperture when I look at the thumbnails of the RAWs and JPEGs side by side. It is obvious which ones are the jpegs just by the contrast added in camera.
I can Also take the images within Aperture-export masters to desktop, then open them in DPP and the contrast/sharpening shows on the raws and jpegs the same in DPP.. It seems to be just Aperture..
Is this Normal? That Aperture does not read the in-camera changes on the Raw files? On the Metadata EXIF Expanded, It does read the exposure Bias, shutter speed etc correctly on the Raws, just not the Contrast or sharpening changes.

Hi Kathy,
This is expected. Settings you make in the camera, for things like color space, sharpening, white balance, etc. don't really apply to RAW images. This is the way the camera and RAW software are designed -- the RAW is really untouched, and this information is tagged along as "meta information." No actual transformation on the image is performed.
You take the RAW image into a RAW converter (Aperture's a good one and make the changes you want. In some cases (White Balance) the tagged info is used, but in others (sharpening, color space) it's not. Aperture uses the widest possible color space (it's wider than ProPhoto RGB from what I've been told, though I haven't used my handy gamut checker to verify
So this contrasts with JPEGs. JPEG is a "final" format -- so the settings you have configured in your camera are actually used in the creation of the JPEG. It is sharpened, color balanced based on your settings, fit into a color space (sRGB, Adobe RGB, etc.) compressed, and written as a JPEG. You can't take these things "back" once that has been done.
Aperture actually makes working with both types of images so similar that it's difficult to really notice the differences. If you work with a more labor-intensive workflow like Adobe Camera RAW, you'll notice all the extra steps you must employ to get from RAW to JPEG.

  • Aperture not showing (just black) newly imported JPEG files

    RE: Aperture not showing newly imported JPEG files.
    In fact its just black instead of the actual image. (see attached screen shot)
    When double clicking on this - i.e. to go to the edit mode, the image then appears.
    If I return to the viewing screen without changing anything to that image it remains black.
    If I make any kind of change to the image, the image will appear when returning to the viewing screen.
    Aperture seems only to have started behaving like this after update to OS X  10.10 (Yosemite)
    I have the latest Aperture 3.6
    Latest Digital Camera Raw 6.00 Build 761.5 and Digital Camera Raw Support 6000 Build 131.1
    RAW files (taken with same camera) are displayed without any issues.
    JPEG image files have been taken with a Sony RX100
    JPEG image files taken with the same device imported into Aperture before OSX update to 10.10 have appear to have no issues
    I cannot say if JPEG files taken with a different device have similar issues.
    All files have been been reprocessed to latest edition of aperture
    I have had other issues of other types of files (i.e. TIFF output  files 'unsupported image format' behaving oddly including inconsistent behaviour after having been processed by 3rd party aperture plug-in's -  although this has now largely been solved.
    I remember having similar issues of files behaving strangely in Aperture after last update to OS X (Mavericks) - forget how this was solved -  but I'm pretty sure it was not an issue involving JPEGS
    Many thanks

    ...this sounds very similar to the problem I had on a previous aperture update and I had a similar issue  -  to that - with the .tiff files output from RAW files and an HDR plug-in.
    In the first instance, I cannot remember for sure, but maybe it was something to do with not having the latest RAW File update for Aperture specific to that latest Aperture Update and specific to a Sony RX100 (or it could have been a Nikon d700).
    I found the RAW file update  -  I'm not sure it was being made available from the App Store -  and everything was fine.
    With the more recent issue, I'm pretty sure this was resolved by updating to the latest Photomatix HDR plug-in.
    So I'm just stuck on the issue with the JPEGs now.

  • Aperture not showing up in app store

    Why is Aperture not showing up in the app store for re-download? I purchased version 2 and upgraded a while ago, and it works great on my old Mini, but with the Macbook Retina coming soon, I'm worried that I have to purchase again?

    How did you upgrade? From the App Store? Somewhere else?

  • Does Aperture 2 have a way of converting raw images to png or jpeg.

    Does Aperture 2 have a way of converting raw images to png or jpeg

    That's why we're here
    In regards to your original question converting RAW images to JPGs is one of Apertures reason for being. As Terrence stated once the image is in Aperture ad you've made chatterer adjustments you want to it you then can export the image in a wide array of formats, sizes and qualities depending on what you will be doing with the exported image.
    The Aperture user manual is a good place to start, it's well written and has a lot of good info in it.
    Good luck

  • Bridge CS6 not showing Camera Raw adjustments

    I am wanting the adjustments I've made in Camera Raw to show on the thumbnailed images in Bridge CS6, but after I've made the adjustments in CR, it still shows the original/uncorrected image in Bridge.  Help?
    Also, I am wanting to copy+paste the adjustments I've made in Camera Raw from one image to the next, but "Develope Settings ---> Copy Settings" is not highlited in the Bridge menu for me to do so.  Neither is it showing any option to do so when I right click  on the images.
    Thanks!

    Embedded thumbnails are included in the raw file from cameras.  Question, as Curt Y wrote in reply #1, is whether you are viewing these embedded from-camera thumbnails or viewing bridge-generated hi quality thumbnails.
    What thumbnail quality have you selected in the 'Options For Thumbnail Quality And Preview Generation' button in the Adobe Bridge application bar?  Should be Always High Quality (or possibly High Quality On Demand).  If the selection is set to 'Prefer Embedded (Faster)' you will not see the camera raw changes in the Bridge Content thumbnail images.  Check this selection in your laptop and see if it is same as in your desktop.

  • PSE Not showing camera raw update 8.8

    My PSE13 is saying that camera raw is up to date at 8.7 but it will still not read my NEF Files.. I saw camera raw 8.8 is available but my PSE is not showing an update available so how do I manually update my Camera Raw?

    Perhaps that is your experience, MBP, at a particular point in time and/or on a particular platform for version of PSE13, but for me on Windows 7 and Windows 8, with PSE 13.1 & ACR 8.7.1 installed, there still is no update found when checking from Help / Updates in the PSE 13 Editor.  I have also downloaded and installed the Camera RAW 8.8 installer from the Adobe HelpX page, and that installer installs ACR 8.8 for PS-CS6 and PS-CC but no PSE13--I have all three on my system.  I can manually copy the plug-in from the PS folder to the PSE folder but that's not something the updater is doing on its own.
    For someone who has some computer savvy, and is running Windows, at least, you can download the ACR 8.8 installer EXE, rename it to have a .zip extension, open it with 7zip (not Windows native compressed folder handling, or WinRAR) and unzip the contents to somewhere, then look for the Camera Raw.8bi file, and copy that over the top of the PSE13 file of the same name.  There are two Camera Raw.8bi files.  The one under $SHELL[70] is the same size as in my PS-CC so I assume that is the 64-bit one.  There is another one under $MUSIC that is slightly smaller so maybe that is the 32-bit one but the folder structure also says CC so I'm not sure.
    The installer is here:
    Camera Raw plug-in installer
    Besides the .8bi plug-in there are also new camera profiles.  Those can be more easily installed by installing the DNG Converter 8.8 available from the Adobe Updates page:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

  • Lightroom 5.7 Not Showing Camera Profiles from DNG File

    Hello,
    I just installed Adobe DNG Converter 9.0 and converted some Nikon D7200 fles to DNG for import into Lightroom 5.7. This works fine except for the Camera Specific profiles not showing up. Only Adobe Standard shows up.
    When I open the same DNG file in Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop CS6, [it] properly shows all the camera specific profiles for the D7200. What am I doing wrong?
    Here is what the develop module Camera Profile drop down menu looks like in LR 5.7
    And in Photoshop CS6 Adobe Camera RAW ( ACR ) 8.7.1.311
    Thanks for your insight.

    gonzalu,  the reason is because the profiles are installed separately for Camera Raw vs Lightroom. 
    If you're using Lr 5.x, then to get the extra D7200 profiles visible in Lr, you'll need to manually copy/install them.  Try looking here:
      C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Camera\Nikon D7200
    and copy the contents of that folder to here:
      C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
    (where you should substitute your actual username, above).
    Then restart Lr and the profiles should be visible now.
    (You don't need to do this step if you're running Lr CC, because the new profiles are included with that installation.)

  • LR2.1 Not Showing Camera Profiles List

    I'm probably misunderstanding something here, but I've checked the installation instructions and the faq and can't figure out what.
    I'm using Win XP Pro SP2 and LR2.1 (the just released final version). I've downloaded and installed (automatically, by running the .exe) (cameraprofiles_b2_win_102208.exe) the camera profiles.
    I use a Leica M8 (which provides .dng raw files) and a Canon 5D (which provides .cr2 raw files).
    I understand from what I've read that I should be able to go to the camera calibration panel in LR 2.1 and get a list of cameras to pick from,
    but I don't.
    When I open a Leica raw image I get these choices under camera calibration:
    ACR 4.4
    ACR 3.6
    Adobe Standard beta 2
    Camera Standard beta 2
    Opening a Canon image gives me a longer list of choices:
    ACR 4.4
    ACR 3.3
    Adobe Standard beta 2
    Camera Faithful beta 2
    Camera Landscape beta 2
    Camera Neutral beta 2
    Camera Portrait beta 2
    Camera Standard beta 2
    Is LR somehow automatically recognizing which camera shot the image and assuming I don't need to be bothered with a list of possible cameras to choose from?
    Any help on what I'm missing will be appreciated.

    >I understand from what I've read that I should be able to go to the camera calibration panel in LR 2.1 and get a list of cameras to pick from, but I don't.
    No, you get a list of camera profiles, not cameras. The list only shows profiles that are made for your camera model.

  • Finder not showing camera, Image Grab sees it

    Hey,
    I have a Canon EOS 400D, but when I plug it in via USB it fails to show up in Finder.
    I can grab the images from the camera using Image Grab, so OS X definitely sees it -- just for some reason, it's not showing up on the Desktop or in the Finder sidebar, as other cameras (or flash disks, iPods, etc) do.
    Any thing I can do to make it show up?
    Thanks!
    --Public.

    I don't know about that model specifically, but for a camera to appear in the "Finder", it must be able to function as a "mass storage" device. I get the impression that many Canon cameras do not support this mode...

  • When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage it is terribly slow to attach photo or take a photo the app does not show camera and slow... like 2 mins at least.

    When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage and then attach a photo or take a photo... the app does not show the camera fully or even to attach a photo does not work. I have about 8-9000 phones and like 10 short videos in there but it is incredibly slow and almost unable. I have the 128GB iPhone 6 Plus with 46 gb still available. I think this should not be so slow with so much memory still available. Please help. I am using 8.1.2. Yes I have set up the phone as a new phone. Apple store even reformatted this iphone 6 plus 2 months ago but it is still terribly slow Thanks

    Hey Bender1031,
    Thanks for the question, I can definitely understand how frustrating this issue may be with a brand new phone. Great troubleshooting so far by already attempting a restart and reset. If the issue persists, let’s try restoring your device and updating to the latest software (iOS 8.0.2):
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    - If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    - If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
