Bug in Crop tool with Olympus E-M5 raw files (ORF)

There is a bug in the crop tool with Olympus OM-D E-M5 RAW files (ORF) that is still not fixed with the recent update. Here is how to reproduce the problem.
I setup my E-M5 camera picture aspect ratio to 3:2 (instead of the sensor 4:3) and file format to RAW.
I take a picture.
I import the picture in Lightroom. The first thumbnail I see is the full sensor, then Lightroom computes a new thumbnail and correctly display the 3:2 crop factor.
I select the picture in the library and press [R] to bring the Crop tool.
BUG: The Crop tool does not let me recover the full 4:3 sensor image and is locked to the 3:2 crop factor.
Can this be fixed? Thanks

Are you sure you mean Photoshop version 6 the is a very old version of Photoshop before ACR existed. ACR first became available as a extra cost plug-in for Photoshop version 7. ACR started to be shipped with Photoshop with Photoshop CS. Each version since Photoshop CS has a newer version of ACR which is not compatible with older versions of Photoshop. So
CS ACR version is 2.4
CS2 ACR version 3.7
CS3 ACR version 4.6
CS4 ACR version 5.7
CS5 ACR version 6.7
CS6 and CC ACR version 8.4 however the new features in ACR 8.4 for CC are crippled in CS6. CS6 just get the new Camera support.

If you have CS6 use menu help>Updates it should find the ACR 8.4 for CS6 and update your installation. If it does not you can down load it and the DNG converter. However don't convert to DNG just use your OFR RAW files.

If you do mean Photoshop version 6 you need to see if Olympus has a RAW converter for Photoshop version 6 for your camera.

Aperture 3.1.3 and Olympus E-PL2 RAW files

Hi all;
I'm using Aperture 3.1.3 on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz, 8 gig RAM. OS is OS X 10.7
My new Olympus E-PL2 RAW files (.ORF) do not seem to be compatible, despite Apple indicating that they are supported. The corresponding DNG files produce the same error message. Whenever I try to export or use a plug-in, I get the following message:
Editing Error
This image cannot be renedered for editing
because Aperture does not support the image format.
Does anyone have any recommendations for fixing this issue?
Thanks!!
Tim

Hi Tim,
I'm running a similar configuration (hardware and camera) and I'm able to edit RAW in Aperture/Lion. Do you have all other s/w maintainance applied?
Only problem I've seen since Lion is problems with images not on the MBP, in particular my NAS library is no inaccessible.

Problems with Lightroom 5.2 and Olympus EM-1 RAW files?

There have been reports on DPREVIEW of color problems using Lightroom 5.2 with RAW files from the Olympus OM-D EM-1 camera. This causes difficulty creating camera profiles, and creates a red shift in Images. JPG images are unaffected.
Anyone else seeing this?
When may we look forward to LR 5.3, hopefully with a fix?
Thanks............... Jack Winberg

The read me file from Adobe indicate that LR 5.2 has "preliminary" support for the Olympus EM-1 raw files.
I would make sure you keep your original raw files so they can be converted when the support is finalized. i.e. I would not convert to dng on import if that is your normal workflow.

Olympus E-500 raw file problem with long exposures

Hi,
This topic has come up before, but wasn't resolved. Maybe its somewhere else, but I can't find it.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4994383&#4994383
Raw files from my Olympus E-500 with exposures over 3.2s come up with overexposed looking previews in Aperture. I think there is some automatic noise reduction (dark frame) info in these files, since they are 16.68Mb instead of the normal 13.47Mb. Apparently Aperture doesn't know what to do with these larger files.
Is there a known way around this within Aperture? The files open fine within Olympus Master 2 and Raw Photo Processor.
I've pasted a screen shot here with some links to raw files:

cheers

Yea, I've had that issue also and figured out the DNG workaround. Filed a bugreport with Apple on Nov 2nd, 2006. It sat with what looked like no attention right up until I got an e-mail on Oct 26th, 2007 (notice the date) saying that the issue was fixed in 10.5. I had already preordered Leopard so was hoping this was right. It wasn't. It's still borked. Logged notes back into the issue saying it wasn't.
Perhaps if more E-500 users report this it'll get more attention.

Heavily Jagged Curves/Diagonals on Olympus EP-L1 RAW Files and possibly the whole PEN Family

Hello everybody
I have a serious situation here. My Olympus EP-L1 raw files have serious jagged diagonals. It's only visible on sharp curved surfaces. I ran some test on straight sharp diagonals from 45º to 0º but found no artifacts. Here is a comparison between in-camera jpeg and .ORF converted to DNG in Lightroom 3.3, ACR 6.3. BTW, this is visible on .ORF files as well as DNG. I took these photos with RAW+JPEG at full resolution, highest quality.
Full thread and samples here
Thanks

RC 8.6 Issues with Nikon D810 NEF RAW files

RC 8.6 does not correctly process Nikon D810 NEF RAW files. See the following blog article for some details:
Nikon D810 vs D800E ISO Comparison

This is very helpful. My current workflow, until ACR 8.6 and LR fully support the Nikon D810, are to use the DNG converter and import the resulting D810 DNG files into my LR catalog.
I have not yet tried this (traveling right now), but I assume I can still make a custom profile using the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport and it's associated software for my D810 using the RC 8.6 DNG files. This is my normal workflow for all of my other cameras in LR, but the process is direct from native RAW and not DNG (to produce the custom profile).

Until Lightroom gets D810 support, you will need to use the ACR plugin in order to see the profiles. The DNG Converter always uses Adobe Standard, and embeds it into the DNG. Lightroom 5.5 doesn't have the D810 profiles.

Olympus E-PM1 raw files

Does anyone know how I can edit Olympus E-PM1 raw files in Photoshop elements?....is there a plugin or something?

Can you look at what version of Camera Raw you have. Launch the Editor and click the menu:
Help >> About Plug-in >> Camera Raw
You should see a version number on a pop-up (press Esc to close) and it needs to be version 6.5 or later.

What level of Elements will support Olympus OMD-M-5 Raw Files (.ORF) ??

What level of Elements will support Olympus OMD-M-5 Raw Files (.ORF) ??

Yes it is the OM-D E-M5 Newly purchased. Love the camera but don't like the Olympus software.
I have Elements 7, but have previously been a Canon user and have hitherto used Canon DPP software to process my CR2 Raw files.

Olympus E-P1, RAW files, barrel distortion and Snow Leopard

I currently use Aperture 2.0, a MacbookPro, and a new Oly E-P1. I have just returned from a trip to Spain with over 1000 RAW files. Aperture won't recognize them. Tricking Aperture into accepting them as E-30 RAWs leaves in huge barrel distortion issues. Always silent Apple won't even say if they're working on recognizing them in an upcoming release. The native OLY RAW converters mostly correct the barrel distortion with funny math in their extremely lame Olympus Master 2 that came with the camera. Raw Photo Processor (which I was counting on to save me) which will recognize the files, also leaves in barrel distortion.
I understand that the latest Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 will read Oly E-P1 RAW files. I see no way to use Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 without upgrading my current Photoshop from CS to CS4 and purchasing Lightroom. Total cost, about $400. I might be willing (as an amateur) to do this, as I probably need to upgrade to CS4 anyway, BUT, I understand through a little digging on the web, that I will probably have to downgrade my OS from OS X v. 10.6 (Snow Leopard) apprently not supported by Adobe yet. Both of these will be a major commitment of time and money.
I would like to make sure that the Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 does indeed correct the barrel distortion first. Anybody out there using it? Also, if anyone has any other suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

If you want to try, just download the LR 2.5 demo version from the Adobe Website. You don't need to upgrade Photoshop. Lightroom will work just fine by itself, even when using CS as the external editor as it contains the full ACR raw rendering kernel and you can just have Lightroom render tifs to be sent to PS. Also, Lightroom and CS4 work perfectly fine on 10.6. Lightroom should be run in 32-bit mode for the time being if you need the tight Photoshop integration, but that is about it. I don't know where you got the info that you would need to downgrade. That is simply false.

Problem with D-Lux 3 raw files and Mac OS X

Hello everybody… my first post.
Last year I purchased a D-Lux 3, which is my first digital camera and my first Leica too.
While I enjoy this little camera, recently I have noticed that all my pictures shooted in raw have at least 4 black pixels in the exactly same position.
I’m using Mac OS X v 10.4.10 (last version) on a new MacBook 2.16 GHz and the dead pixels appear using both Preview and Aperture (trial). While at first I thought to have a defective sensor, making additional trials, I found out that if I shoot in JPEG or if I open the raw files with Adobe Camera Raw the pictures are just fine, no “dead” pixels appear.
I’m wondering if other D-lux 3 and Mac OS X users have ever noticed this kind of problem.
Is it some sort of very strange bug in Mac OS X?
Thanks

Thanks everybody for the answers.
The pixels are in the top part of the frame but not on the edge.
I think the best explanation could be the automatic “dead Pixels” correction pointed out by jrg_uk.
I really didn’t know some applications make this kind of automatic corrections.
I guess at this point I need to have my camera sensor repaired by Leica.

Has Lightroom been updated with a good RAW Converter that will work with Fujifilm X-T1 RAW files?

Hello,
I just purchased a Fujifilm X-T1. The camera produces excellent jpeg files. However, I prefer processing my work in RAW. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble deciding to upgrade with Adobe if their RAW converter is not up to par with Fuji.
Fujifilm renders images on their sensors differently than conventional Bayer sensors like Canon, Nikon, Olympus etc. Fuji uses an X-tran sensor with pixels arranged in a different pattern.
This has presents a new challenge because now one has to buy a third party in order to process Fuji RAW files and this disrupts the workflow between Lightroom and Photoshop.
I really love using Adobe and hope they will come up with a fix for this.

Aperture 1.1 and Olympus E-500 RAW files

Hi there.
My problem:
RAW data from my Olympus E-500 isn´t supported by Aperture 1.1
After importing RAW files there´s no image data and the preview displays "unsupported image format"
I wonder why, since that camera is listed in the compatibility list under http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/cameras.html
Even if it is not listed in the compatibility list of apertures supported RAW filetypes, in my understanding aperture should deal with those files if the OS supports the camera. But this understanding seems to be wrong..
I know that RAW files can be quite different in structure, so files generated by the E-1 seem not to be the same as RAW files generated by the E-500.. even if they have the same files extension. But I wonder that even the E300 is supported but not the E500.
Does anybody knows if there is a workaround for this or if there is a chance to use Aperture with these files in the near future?
Thanks for any information.

I know that RAW files can be quite different in
structure, so files generated by the E-1 seem not to
be the same as RAW files generated by the E-500..
even if they have the same files extension. But I
wonder that even the E300 is supported but not the
E500.
You are indeed correct that the .ORF raw files generated by the E-1 and the E-300 are different from those generated by the E-500. Olympus must take the responsibility for this. I will assume that they had some good reason for changing the file structure between camera models, but I don't know what it is and have difficulty imagining what it could be. When the E-500 was released, there was considerable discussion about this on several forums (notably the Olympus SLR forum at dpreview.com) as there were several other software programs (sorry, can't remember which specific ones) that also had been working well with .ORF files from the E-1 and E-300, but did not support E-500 .ORF files.
Why Apple has not added support for the E-500 raw files is another good question, and I hope you've posted your request as feedback for the Aperture team. I am using Aperture and an E-1, and have been enjoying the combination ever since Aperture 1.0 was released. The raw conversions for the E-1 have definitely improved since 1.1 was released, so Apple knows something about .ORF files. I hope that you will also get to experience that (soon) when support for the E-500 files is added. I'm not aware of any workaround at this time, but will post here again should I come across one.
Let's hope that Apple has not simply assumed that all .ORF files are equal, and has not noticed that you have a problem.

Olympus E20N Raw Files (.orf) not supported?

Am I doing something wrong? The .orf files from my Olympus E20n import as empty images (metadata seems to be importing) with the message the image is an unsupported format. Are .orf files from the E-1 different than E20N?
Also, from the Apple web site, it states DNG files will not work if the Raw format is unsupported. Does that explain why converting the E20N Raw files to DNG fail to display with the same error.
Sorry if this sounds like a "Duh!" but I'd like confirmation before I waste additional hours trying to get this to work.
Thanks!

Sad but true. I also thought that .DNG was the .PDF of the RAW photo world, but no. One man's DNG is another man's poison. Each DNG contains information to that specific camera RAW and parameters on how to process. So unless the application understands the RAW, it won't understand the DNG either.
Lots of old family snaps from a Canon Powershot s40 stuck in limbo land, unless I go editing plist files ..... or reprocess to TIF's and then import. And yes, that's how I found out about the .DNG gotcha!

Olympus EM-1 raw files look flat in LR 5.3 RC

Raw (ORF) files from the OM-D EM-1 look much flatter in 5.3RC than with the Olympus Viewer software. I'm having to add considerable exposure and contrast adjustments to give good results. Is the support for the EM-1 optimized in the Release Candidate?
A second question: Why are there no lens profiles for micro four thirds lenses? I'm having to manually correct vignetting.

One approach is to stop shooting JPGs with your camera and concentrate on getting the look you want from your raw files in LR.
It could also be that LR isn’t able to display your images properly due to an incorrectly calibrated monitor. Are you using hardware calibration?
Many micro-four-thirds cameras have always-on profiles built into LR, so you won’t see them listed. This is due to Adobe needing to agree to non-disclosure agreements with some camera manufacturers for help in profiling their camera lenses and not being able to show the images raw from the camera, and not even being able to say whether a particular camera has a built-in profile or not.
You can see the distortion of the original using a program like RawDigger:
