Applying saved jpeg settings to raw (.raf) file.

Hi,
Please could someone help me out? I have previously imported some raw (.raf) files into Lightroom and done my adjustments - i then saved as jpegs and took all files out of the lightroom dashboard.
I now want to go back into a raw (.raf) file that I have re-imported into Lightroom, and apply the same settings that I did previously to the jpegs before.
Obviously, on re-importing the raw files, they have reverted to the original settings and not the jpeg settings that I saved at.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your help

If you exported them with 'All Metadata', then you may be able to recover the raw develop settings from the exported jpegs using Wreck Hover (a plugin I wrote).
'Recover from export' is the menu item to use.

    Ah, gotchya. Your Fuji camera must not then be on this list here?  http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html  You could presumably use the sw that came with the camera and create jpegs or tiffs with them and keep them in aperture along side the unsupported raws, in stacks.

  • Fujifilm X20 - RAW (.RAF) Files support

    I have just purchased a Fujifilm X20 camera and was surprised to find that RAW (.RAF) files taken by it are not supported by Apple Aperture. Seems that X10 users are still waiting for this to happen as well. This is hugely disappointing as the supplied Fuji software is just sooooo PC. Does anyone have any idea at all when such support will be forthcoming? Surely if Adobe can issue the needed updates to camera RAW (not yet for the brand new X20) then Apple should be able to do likewise. Aperture is a Pro application and should receive pro support.

    RJ,
    I am still testing what my favorite presets are. So, any advice might be ill advice. Jsut try a few shots and play with highlights, shadows, lights, darks, noise reduction, clarity, vibrance, and color saturation. For most of my shots so far, I use: NR (Lum) set to 10, lights +15, darks -15 (resulting in a modest S-curve). One reason is that I prefer detail instead of lack-of-noise. NR will increase when ISO rises. Highlights and shadows to your liking. Same for color-specific saturation. Otherwise LR default (incl sharpening en color NR.
    I hardly do anything with WB because it is usually OK.
    The basic message is: be conservative in your PP!
    One thing to keep in mind: shooting ETTR is recommended. Don't use DR400, DR200 at the most.
    Out of curiosity: Will you be using Aperture as library for the jpegs resulting from the LR conversion? Have you considered using LR for all your X20 photos and Aperture for your dSLR?

  • Opening & Saving JPEGS in Camera RAW

    I just started using Photoshop ( version CS3) and am concerned that I'm doing things incorrectly already.
    I'm not doing any huge retouching work, but am using camera RAW to open and clean up some JPEG files. I'm just doing a bit of re-white balancing, etc.
    I've noticed that when I save the files ( again as Jpegs) they seem to be reduced from around 5mb files to 1.5mb files. When I open the reduced sized files in Photoshop and/or Mac Preview they are the same resolution and dimensions as the larger files, but it seems that somehow the file is being compressed.
    Do I have a box checked somewhere that shouldn't be checked? And if so, does it matter ( am I losing resolution in a way that I can't see or haven't discovered?
    Or is this compression just another side benefit of CS3 (along with being able to make 'RAW' modifications to Jpegs)?
    Thanks, Gllenn

    In the Save dialogue in camera raw, when you choose JPEG and choose maximum quality it sets the level to 10, but you can change that number to 12 if you want to. I just tried it with my setup. With the quality level set at 10 the file size was 2.51 MB, with it set at 12 the file size was 5.76 MB. The difference is in the amount of compression that is being applied to the pixels when the image is saved. If you want maximum quality from your JPEG images I would suggest changing that setting to 12, although it will probably be very difficult for you to see any difference.

  • Quality Loss when saving Jpeg from Camera Raw

    I am try to do some color correction on 400 wedding photos. I open like photos in Camera Raw then synchronize, make a few additional adjustments and then save the photos as psd files. When I save the files, the quality drops dramatically. I can see pixels and jagged edges (looks like steps) on anything curved. The photographer will not give me the RAW files, so I have to work with these high quality jpegs and I would prefer to use camera raw as it is nice and easy to fix many of the photos quickly. How can I save these files so as to not lose quality? Oh, I am on a Mac.
    --K

    Ramón,
    now I am quite baffled. For years ago I conducted respective tests and demonstrated, that repeated saving with the same "quality" does not introduce image deterrioration; others did the same tests and came to the same result.
    Now, to be sure, I did it again, and the result contradicts my earlier findings. Although the deterrioration is after five consecutive savings practically irrecognizabe without hugely amplifying it, it is there, and that is an issue of principle.
    While it is possible, that I and others made some error in those tests, the question is (for me) what causes the difference.
    I verified, that the encoding parameters are unchanged. Thus the difference must come from the calculation required to transform between the original pixel values and the encoded values by
    a. the conversion between RGB and YCbCr,
    b. the discrete cosine transform (a variation of Furier transform).
    However, any differences resulting from the calculation (iteration, rounding) should be eliminated by the subsequent lossy step, the "quantization" (which is an euphemism for "throwing away most of the data"). Even if there is a difference between the first and second savings, there should not be any between the fourth and fifth savings - but there is.
    One explanation could be, that the encoding and decoding functions work with different precision, though this sounds very outlandish.
    Anyway, darn.
    Re the encoding parameters: they *have to be* stored in the JPEG file, otherwise the data could not be decoded, except by that program, which knows the parameters. However, JPEG is not designed for human consumption but for computers (this fact makes testing a program, which reads or writes JPEG data a serious PITA). The metadata can be analyzed only by a hex editor, and one has to know the structure of that data.
    Re knowing, if the file has to be compressed or not: JPEG is *always* encoded. There are different variants of the encoding method, but there is no "unencoded" version.

  • Cannot apply any color settings to RAWs from CompactFlash card

    Usually we shoot tethered around here, but i had to shoot to card yesterday and was having no luck using Bridge and ACR to apply color settings to my files. I would open a .MOS file in ACR from Bridge and change its color balance and/or exposure, etc. and click DONE and nothing would happen in Bridge. It would make an XML file that sat alongside it in the folder, but Bridge would not recognize these changes. There preview and the thumb would stay the same, and i wouldn't get that little circle icon with the arrows in it next to the thumb in Bridge.
    Changing preview types, thumbnail types, auto-exporting cache, purging cache from Tools menu, reapairing permissions, changing parent folder permissions, restarting my Mac, dump Bridge's preferences etc. nothing worked. i even tried the same images on a different Mac with CS3 and Bridge and got the same results. If i made a New Camera Raw Default, that WOULD work, but i could not make specific single-image changes.
    BUT, somehow as i was pulling my hair out, i found a fix. Going to the Finder, i Got Info on the RAW file, went to the Open With popup, found Adobe Photoshop CS3 again (even though it was already highlighted), clicked ADD, and closed the Info window. Instantly that file's Thumbnail in Bridge got rebuilt and now my color changes would stick.
    Every file that comes off these cards needs that done to it, but never when we shoot tethered to the computer. Weird. I'm not sure if it's specific to the Digital back or not.
    This was using a Leaf Aptus 75S mounted to a Mamiya RZ67 shooting to SanDisk 4GB Compact Flash cards. I'm running a G5 tower using OSX 10.4.11, Bridge 2.1.1.9, and ACR 4.4.1.
    Any ideas?

    With that version of Photoshop, the most recent version of Camera Raw you can use is 6.7. If updating your Photoshop or subscribing to the creative cloud is not an option then you could use the free DNG converter provided by Adobe. The latest version of the DNG converter is 8.7.1. I am not familiar with Mac operating systems, so I'm not certain if your OS is compatible with the latest version. You can download it and try.

  • Any plan to support Fujifilm IS PRO RAW(.RAF) file?

    Hi,
    Fujifilm FinePix IS PRO is UV/IR capable camera with S5 PRO system (Nikon D200 body).
    It's RAW structure is 99% identical if not 100%.
    Unfortunately, all Apple products is not support its RAW image because it's not on its supporting list although the file structure is (almost) same.
    Please let me know is there any chance to support this camera in future.
    I can supply sample RAW files if you require.
    Adobe is currently supporting FinePix IS PRO in Camera Raw.
    Regards

    I have the same problem using the RAW-Files of the S5 pro with Aperture. I really would use this greate Apple-Software but I switched to Adobe Lightroom. In Lightroom my Camera is fully supported.

  • Aperture applying D7000 jpg WB to RAW previews--I do NOT have that selected

    I have always, and still have, set Aperture to NOT apply jpeg settings to RAW previews. Now, with my new D7000, it is doing this no matter what I do. I have the Preview settings in Aperture preferences with the apply jpeg settings Unchecked.
    I do NOT have this problem with my D90.
    Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated, as would anyone else experiencing this problem chiming in (in case there is an issue with the D7000 RAW conversion in Aperture 3)
    I have the latest versions of Aperture, Mac Os 10, etc.

    Chromey,
    I am importing only RAW files. The setting I mentioned in Aperture is to allow it to use the settings for the imbedded jpeg to generate the previews in Aperture. RAWs have imbedded jpeg data, since even if you only shoot RAW in camera, there is a small jpeg that needs to be created for your camera LCD.
    I think this setting is a red herring with respect to your problem. The setting you are chasing is only to allow Aperture to show you a preview quickly, *while it is importing*. I.e., before Aperture parses the 12MB RAW file, it can parse the first 40K of it and extract the embedded JPG to show you. If you were to walk away from your computer as soon as you hit "import" and then come back only after it was done, the setting would be meaningless.
    The real issue is that Apple's RAW decoding is applying the white balance, as indicated in the metadata. There have been a couple threads recently about this sort of thing, but I cannot seem to find them right now. Interestingly, though, I think the other threads were questioning why Aperture was not applying some of the attributes to the RAW decoding for a particular camera.
    I guess I do not know what the right answer is. I am actually very happy to be able to set white balance in my Canon XTi and have Aperture apply that setting.

  • How do I process Fuji XE2 raf files in lightroom 4.4

    New to Fuji cameras! Love the camera, now I need to know how to get Lightroom 4.4 to preview and process my XE2 raf files. My issue starts with a message 'can not preview image' and the raw raf files do not come up at all. Ideas?

    Where did you see this false information--about LR 4.4 supporting the X-E2?
    LR 4.4.1 was released June 2013.
    The X-E2 was announced October 2013, some months after, LR 4.4.1.
    Adobe's raw conversion software needs specific information for each camera, to support raws from that camera.  Adobe needs a production-ready camera in hand to determine this information so there's no way LR 4.4.1 would already have information from a camera not announced until some months later, and available for sale even later.
    If you have simple software that supports the camera, either it is newer, or it is merely reading the embedded JPG preview and not interpreting the raw data.
    The DNG Converter 8.3 or newer should work fine to create DNGs from the camera's native raw files; however, when you specify the source, the usual confusion is that you are selecting a FOLDER and you won't see any image files listed.

  • Camera RAW auto tone settings applied to jpegs

    I posted this in the Windows Bridge forum, but a camera raw preference controls this so I am also posting here.
    On jpeg files without any RAW setting applied, Bridge still applies RAW settings to the thumbnails and the preview are thus display incorrectly. Opening the file shows the jpeg as it should be, without RAW settings applied.
    I have RAW preferences set to apply auto settings to RAW files without any current settings.
    I have my RAW settings to open jpegs in RAW *only* when they already have settings. If I set this to disable jpeg support, then the RAW settings are not automatically applied to jpegs without existing settings. aka, Bridge redoes the thumbnails without the auto setting.
    While it is correct to apply auto tone to RAW files without settings, jpeg files are already "developed/printed" and should not get additional auto develop settings automatically applied.
    My Bridge is 4.0.4.2
    Raw is 6.3

  • TIFF & JPEG renders of RAW files appear different when viewed in Bridge

    I am working with the demo of Photoshop CS6, with ACR 7.1. CS6 System Info will appear at the bottom of this post. Summary: AMD Phenom II x6 1090T, 16GB RAM, Win7-64bit, nVidia GTX 460 video w/1GB RAM, approx. 2.5 TB free space on multiple internal physical drives, Canon 50D, CR2 files. I have a camera profile generated through Profile Editor, and the monitor is calibrated with i-1 Match.
    I have been practicing with the new Basic Panel controls (Process 2012). When I felt that I was getting the hang of them I started saving JPEG and TIFF files and noticed differences between what appears in Bridge and ACR. I worked on this for some time and searched out some other discussions in the Forum which seemed to talk about similar results. I have now tried Image Processor via Bridge, Save Image in ACR, and Open>Save manually in PS CS6. By whatever route, the TIFFs and JPEGs are different (lighter in the following examples, but this is not always the case), while PSD saves seem to be close, but not identical to the CR2 when viewed in Bridge or Photoshop. Here is a screen capture of Bridge thumbnails which show the differences.
    I hope the labels come through legibly. The two images on the second row are CR2 and PSD respectively. What is really odd to me is that when I resaved the PSD file as a TIFF, the same sort of difference shows up in the TIFF. (See _MG_7960_via_PSD.tif above.) I have uploaded the CR2, its XMP, a TIFF and a JPEG on Sendspace (107 MB). I did this earlier in my experiments and regret that the file naming is not as informative as might be.
    http://www.sendspace.com/file/t0lhko
    I have run a few other ACR adjusted CR2 images through Image Processor and seen a variety of differences between the rendered files and the RAW versions. The differences seem to be in Exposure and Contrast. Most of these looked somewhat darker, unlike the examples above.
    I will happily provide any other information on request. Thanks!

    Thanks very much for that lead, NormanPCN. I do have Auto Tone checked, though the rendered files in the example above do not have XMP sidecars. I will try unchecking Auto Tone even so, and post back when I see what happens.
    Thanks again,
    Kieren
    EDIT: Bingo! I took Auto Tone off in ACR Preferences (in Bridge) and the non-RAW files immediately regenerated thumbs and previews. They now are indistinguishable from the PSD. There is still the very slight difference which I mentioned between the PSD and the CR2. While that seems odd, it is small enough to be relatively trivial.
    Many thanks!

    Have you checked your "Import" settings for "Raw&Jpeg" pairs in the "Import" panel?
    You can set Aperture to import raw, jpeg, or raw&jpeg.
    If you imported Raw&Jpeg, but have set Aperture to use the Jpeg as original, you will see the imported image as Jpeg image, not as a raw image, even if the raw has also been imported. You can switch between Raw and Jpeg originals for selected images from the Photos menu:
    Photos > Use Raw as original.

  • In case my input RAW/DNG files are already applied white balance , is there a way to cancel the white balance in light room ?

  • Aperture Exporting JPEG's from RAW: file size and quality questions?

    Hey Everyone,
    So, I'm using Aperture 2 and I've got some questions about exporting from RAW to JPEG. I shoot with a Nikon D70 so original RAW files are 5-6mb in size. After doing some basic post processing when I export the pics at "full size" with picture quality of 11 out of 12 then the resulting JPEG is about half the file size of the original RAW file. For example a 5.6mb RAW becomes a 2.6mb JPEG. The resolution in pixels per inch and and the overall image size remain unchanged. Have I lost picture quality due to the exporting JPEG being smaller in file size?
    My friend who works with me prefers to edit in Photoshop and when he follows the same workflow his saved JPEG from the identical RAW file in Photoshop is minimally smaller in file size, say 5.6mb to 5.3mb. He's telling me that my Aperture edited photos are losing quality and resolution.
    Is he right, are my pics of lesser quality due to being a smaller file size? I've always been told that the quality of a picture is not in the mbs, but the pixel density.
    I've bee told that Aperture has a better compression engine and that the resulting files are of the exact same quality because the PPI and image size are the same. Is that what explains the much smaller file sizes in Aperture?
    I tried changing the picture quality in the export menu to 12 out of 12, but the resulting JPEG then becomes larger than the original RAW at over 7mbs.
    Can someone please help me understand this better? I don't want to lose picture quality if that is indeed what is happening.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    JPEG is a "lossy" file compression algorithm. Whether Aperture or PS, *every time a JPEG is saved some loss occurs*, albeit minimal at the 11 or 12 level of save, huge losses at low save levels. Some images (sky, straight diagonal lines, etc.) are more vulnerable to showing visible jpeg artifacts.

    *Both of you are losing image data when you save to jpeg.* IMO the differences between the apps is probably just how the apps work rather than actually losing significantly more data. The real image data loss is in using JPEG at all!
    Is he right, are my pics of lesser quality due to being a smaller file size?
    I doubt it.
    I've always been told that the quality of a picture is not in the mbs, but the pixel density.
    The issue here is not how many pixels (because you are not varying that) but how much data each pixel contains. In this case once you avoid lossy JPEG the quality mostly has to do with different RAW conversion algorithms. Apple and Adobe both guess what Nikon is up to with the proprietary RAW NEF files and the results are different from ACR to Apple to Nikon. For my D2x pix I like Nikon's conversions the best (but Nikon software is hard to use), Aperture second and Adobe ACR (what Photoshop/Bridge uses) third. I 98% use Aperture.
    I tried changing the picture quality in the export menu to 12 out of 12, but the resulting JPEG then becomes larger than the original RAW at over 7mbs. Can someone please help me understand this better? I don't want to lose picture quality if that is indeed what is happening.
    JPEG is a useful format but lossy. Only use it as a _last step_ when you must save files size for some reason and are willing to accept the by-definition loss of image data to obtain smaller files (such as for web work or other on-screen viewing). Otherwise (especially for printing) save as TIFF or PSD which are non-lossy file types, but larger.
    As to the Aperture vs. ACR argument, RAW-convert the same original both ways, save as TIFF and see if your eyes/brain significantly prefer one over the other. Nikon, Canon etc. keep proprietary original image capture data algorithms secret and each individual camera's RAW conversion is different.
