Camera Raw with iPhoto8

Ok,I've imported my RAW files into iPhoto and made adjustments with Photoshop CS2 camera Raw. How come I don't see the adjustments in the iPhoto Program? And where are the jpgs? Do they have to be imported to be seen?
Thanks!

Sue
Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
The only way to successfully edit iPhoto photos with PS is to set it as the external editor for iPhoto (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> "edit photo in" set to external editor and point to PS), edit and then save (not save as) your photos - this will update the iPhoto database files and show your edits in iPhoto

You need to buy PSE13. But you can continue with PSE9 if you download and install the free DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will work with yoir existing software(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.8
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.8
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

Using the Open button in ACR to get to PS doesn’t create a PSD or a TIF, it just transfers the image in memory.
As has been asked, already, what are the precise steps of your workflow starting with your painting the adjustment brush strokes in ACR and seeing the image in PS without the strokes, and what exact versions of PS and ACR are you using?

Use Camera RAW with Sony Nex-3

Hey Guys!
I want to get out more details from my photos.
Im using Adobe Photoshop CS5
Sony NEX-3 Compact Camera (listed in the camera raw compatibility list)
First i changed the cameras picture format from jpg to RAW & made some photos.
At home i tried to open the files with Camera Raw. Doesnt work. The sony camera saved the pictures as an ARW File.
So i downloaded Adobe DNG Converter. I converted the ARW into a RAW file and opened it with camera raw.
So far so good! I opended the RAW picture with Photoshop. Just for testing with 8 & also 16 bit. Does my camera support 16bit?
I compared the RAW File with the new created jpg.
Normaly the quality of the raw file should be much better than the compressed jpg i think.
I took a look at some other jpg pictures (i shot them in JPG Mode) & compared them with the RAW Images (RAW Mode).
I saw absolutely no difference between RAW & JPG.
I also tried a exact tonal value correction at both images.
Same with other picture corrections. Details, Noise, Sharpness.... same.
With the Sony NEX-3 there also was a RAW Program included which opens the ARW Files.
I cant see some differences between RAW & jpg here too.
What I am doing wrong?
I have to say that i am an camera raw beginner. I tried this for the first time. I thought this would be easier!
At the screenshot below you see a JPG picture on the left & a 16bit DNG on the right.
I found no differences!
I would be very happy about your help and some good advices.
Best regards Andi

Basicly i understand how RAW works. But im still wondering why i cant see just only a very little difference to my jpg Images.
The image of the Mountain Railway Station i postet has a lot of dark shadow areas & details.
I´m also wondering why these chromatic aberrations are shown in the RAW file? I thought its only in the jpg images because of the compression.
Your raw file may be 12 or 14 bit, and have no output colour space - it is only limited by its physical characteristics and analogue-to-digital converters. You should set Camera Raw for the biggest workspace necessary, which in my case is 16 bit AdobeRGB. Others work in ProPhotoRGB—it's a personal choice. This has the effect of constraining the raw data, and you will learn to use the sliders to work within those constraints.
Using normal processing settings there will only be subtle differences between the conversion preview and the camera JPEG. The tonal response will be slightly different, seeming slightly lighter or darker, and the colours' hue/saturation will be slightly different too. Also, depending on the camera, automatic distortion/vignette/aberration correction will be missing. This is all to be expected, and your expectations have been misplaced.
However, this is only a starting point. Whilst JPEG shooters can go on to process their images, the resulting quality will be inferior; JPEG is a finished image format. Raw shooters have much more to play with, and can manipulate the conversion's parameters to boost shadows, recover highlights, adjust mean exposure, increase/reduce/localise sharpening and noise control, apply processing gradients and masks, apply local contrast and selective saturation boosts, and correct your camera's colour response, as well as apply lens defect corrections—all before the conversion to JPEG.
So, you won't start to see the difference until you start to push these adjustments. You have been given a second (and a third and a fourth...) chance to create your JPEG using your own set of picture parameters, and the ability to change these parameters for each photo after taking the photo.
In your photo above, you can bring out detail in the shadows by boosting Fill and Blacks. As you shot in Raw, you will have a good amount of tonal resolution recorded in the shadows (assuming you didn't underexpose in the first place), which would be absent from a JPEG. You also have the ability to change the sharpening to suit the image, and even apply local sharpening where it's needed most (and less where it's not needed).
You also have the ability to modify Camera Raw's default settings how you like it. You can enable automatic lens defect corrections (like chromatic aberration—make sure you're on ACR 6.7). You can change the default camera profile (which dictates how tone, hue and saturation is translated) to a preset, or make your own using a calibrator. Do this and your starting point will be how you want it, not how Sony wants it.
I could go on, but I think you have probably heard much of this before. The main point I'm making is that you shouldn't expect to see a big difference straight away, but the possibilities you have created are much greater.

Editing in Camera Raw with Bridge in CS6

Whenever I try to edit an image with Bridge I get a message saying: "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature" I have looked throughout the Adobe site and have not found an answer to my problem. Thanks....

This message usually occurs when you have an expired Adobe trial. Bridge is waiting for program to respond. Search your directory and uninstall the trial.

Camera Raw with Elements 7 and Windows 7 ?

I just got a new computer (i7-2600 quad core processor, running Windows 7) and installed Photoshop Elements 7.0 (and Premiere Elements 7.0) from thew original installation disks. Everything seems to work so far, but I want to be able to use my Canon's (EOS T1i) RAW format (extension .CR2) as I did with my old computer (running Windows XP). I followed the on-line instructions and downloaded the Camera RAW 5.6 plug-in (stated to be the last version which works with PE 7.0). I then ran the CameraProfiles application. I then tried to navigate to the Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 7.0/Plug-Ins/File Formats folder to find the Camera Raw.8bi file. However that path does not exist. I did find the Camera Raw.8bi file in Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 7.0/Plug-Ins/File Formats (not surprisingly). But then the instructions say to copy the plug-in to the original folder in mycase, Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 7.0/Plug-Ins/File Formats) and launch PE. After doing so, I still can't open the RAW files. (I even tried creating a new path in the original Program Files folder, but that didn't work either.) What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do to access the .CR2 files in PE 7.0?

Can you check that Camera Raw 5.6 installed correctly.
Open the Editor and on the top menu click:
Help à About Plug-in à Camera Raw
You should see something like the following confirmation. Make sure it is version 5.4 or higher. Press Esc to close

Understanding Camera RAW with JPEGs

I usually work on the design end, hence I rarely work (professionally) with files straight-from-camera. I get the stuff after the photographers are done with it.
However, that is slightly changing and so I have a question about the Camera Raw plugin in Photoshop. In particular, processing JPEG images with it.
If I understand correctly, it does not actually modify the JPEG image itself, but merely saves the correction information as metadata in the JPEG file, which is then re-constructed when the JPEG is re-opened.
This would (assuming I understand it properly) make it a "safe" way of tweaking JPEGs as unlike most JPEG operations, no resave/quality-loss is occurring. Only the metadata is changing.
Am I correct or have I horribly misunderstood this process?

I can appreciate that - my own plug-ins all do their work in linear space as well for the advantages thereof. However, it's not as if one can't get good results with the normal Photoshop tools, which for some reason seem to be out of favor... One can convert to a linear profile to work on it in Photoshop proper, for example (though one has to craft or find a linear profile to use for that, as none is provided by Adobe). I do my astroimage processing that way.
I might change my workflow to involve Camera Raw where JPEGs are concerned IF Camera Raw could be set to write its metadata back to a sidecar file or the central database instead of rewriting the JPEG file. I understand that it is not rewriting the actual image data, but I just don't want it writing back to my JPEGs at all.

Camera RAW with new computer ?

New computer with Win 8.1...I use Photoshop CS5 and I have a Canon EOS600D. Please can you tell me which DNG converter I should download. Also will it combine with PS automatically or will I have to insert it in plugins for instance ?
lea

Actually, you should be able to use camera raw 6.7 (plugin) in photoshop cs5, which should open those files into photoshop cs5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If in photoshop cs5 you go to Help>About Plug-In and click on the words Camera Raw, what version does it say?
If it's a version number lower than 6.7, you get the camera raw 6.7 update from here:
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
You can also try Help>Updates from within photoshop cs5, but that may not work.

Camera raw with a Mac problem

For anyone that can help I will give many thanks.
I bought a Nikon D90 and I have a Mac. I took a few shots with the camera raw format ( yes the images are in the camera) and tried to get the image on elements 6.0 for Mac and it did not work. Every image came up grey and grainy looking when I opened the file. Went to file>open> tried to use the camera raw but had to use the photoshop raw to open it and that is when I got the grey image. Then I downloaded the Camera Raw 5.4 and tried to open it and it read that it was not compatible with the photoshop. What did I do wrong? How can that be?
Please send advise in a easy way (kind of new to all this) so I will not pull my hair out.
thanks in advance,
marycarnahan

I am not sure about the grainy images. If ACR is too old to recognize RAWs
from your camera it should just give an error message, not produce a strange
image. If you are trying to read the images directly from your camera
using Elements, I would suggest copying the files to your local hard drive,
first. I don't know if it will make any difference, but it is usually
faster and less chance to wear things out on a expensive camera body if you
take the SDHC card out and put it into a card-reader and use that to access
the images.
As far as installing the ACR 5.4 update, which I suggest you attempt to do,
again, but realize that the setup program that comes with the ACR 5.4
updater is for updating Photoshop, not Elements, and if you have an older
version of Photoshop than CS4, then the isntaller will likely complain that
it doesn't find one that is appropriate.
There are special instructions to install the Camera RAW 5.4 update for
Photoshop Elements 6 on a Mac:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4523
The instructions, above, were linked about halfway down on the the main
Camera RAW 5.4 update page:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4517
I am a PC user and also have to use a similar manual process to update ACR
for Elements on Windows.

Unable to upgrade Camera Raw with CS4 in Lion...

Hi All,
very frustrating; I have been unable to upgrade Camera Raw despite several attempts.
I've downloaded the latest version as an upgrade; I've done Software upgrades through PhotoShop, but for some
reason these do not seem to have taken, ie., the version of ACR in Bridge preferences remains 5.0.
This makes it impossible for the computer (a brand new MacBook Pro) to read or convert to DNG raw files
from a Nikon D300S.
Oddly, ACR 5.0 converts raw files from a D700 just fine.
Also puzzling is that my attempt to upgrade to ACR 5.7 in a 5 month old iMac have been smooth as silk (OS 10.6.7)
Help!

At one point, I was one of the most vocal critics of camera raw in the CS4 / Lightroom v2 days. In short, I felt that there was not enough control over noise reduction and fine detail rendition when processing digital camera raw files, especially at higher ISOs, although I had been quite pleased with earlier versions. That all changed when CS5 / LR v3 was released. You now have an enormous amount of control over exactly how much sharpening and how much noise reduction will be applied to an image. The amount of fine detail one can extract from a low-ISO raw file is extraordinary. When you crank up the ISO and an image gets noisy, you now can choose whether or not you prefer a smoother look at the expense of some of the more subtle texture details, or a slightly grainier look where one has a feeling that no significant fine details are lost from the original capture (what I prefer). The raw processing defaults in Adobe's latest software are good starting points, but for my personal tastes, I generally do modify them a bit with less NR and slightly more sharpening at a smaller radius.
Even out-of-camera JPEG files will benefit from the new processing engine. I find that turning down the sharpening and NR in-camera, and then applying some subtle tweaking in LR, for example, makes for much better looking images even when starting from a JPEG. If you are a raw shooter, like I am, then upgrading to the latest Photoshop and Lightroom is absolutely 100% worthwhile in my opinion!
I personally feel that the quality of raw conversions in Adobe's latest software are pretty much the best there are. I have used many other raw converters (Capture One, Aperture, RAW Developer, Silky Pix, Canon's DPP etc.), and while each have their strengths, overall I far prefer the look of the final image from Adobe's latest software. Sure, I might find the colour rendition slightly better, in some cases, from some other raw converters, but colour I can fix. Poor detail rendition or heavy-handed/crude noise reduction I cannot.
EDIT: Also should mention how good the lens correction controls are. Not only are there automatic lens corrections available (possibly of limited use with an M8 due to potential lack of lens EXIF information), but the manual corrections are extremely useful. Chromatic aberration, vignetting, highlight fringing and distortion control all work extremely well and are minimally harmful to image quality, unlike performing those same corrections in Photoshop after the raw conversion stage. You also have excellent perspective corrections that, amazingly enough, seem to have very little impact on image quality even when fairly dramatic adjustments are made.
Lastly, I own both Noise Ninja and Topaz DeNoise and since upgrading to Adobe's latest software, I don't think I have felt the need to use either of those two third party NR plugins once. Purely from a noise reduction standpoint, upgrading to CS5 or LR v3 is almost like getting a new camera, almost like moving from a cropped sensor to a full-frame as far as high-ISO image quality.
I would suggest you download Lightroom v3 and give the 30 trial version a whirl. Spend some time in the Detail section of the Develop module and make sure that for each image you are looking at, ones that you may have edited in previous versions of Camera Raw or Lightroom, that you have "2010(Current)" chosen in the "Process:" section of the CameraCalibration tab in Develop. That will ensure that you are fully benefitting from the latest raw conversion engine. Zoom in to 100% before you tweak the Detail settings to make sure you are seeing actual pixel-level detail. I think you may be amazed at what you can do...
Regards,
Mike Mander

Camera issues with Iphoto8

Hi guys I am planning to upgrade to iphoto8
I have a sony cybershot DSC-W50 camera.
Has anyone used and found this camera to be compatible with iphoto8.
Macbook intel core Duo.
thanks

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If it works with iPhoto 6 then it will with iPhoto 7.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Correctin camera distortion in Camera raw with PSE8

I have a question,
In PS CS3 when i open a RAW file from bridge, i can correct Camera distortion (lens distortion) for example Lens vignetting in the raw converter CAmera Raw .
There is a TAB with this options.
Now i downloaded (for another computer) PSE 8 with bridge for CS4
When i open a RAW file from bridge in Camera Raw 5.5 there is not the option anymore for correcting the camera(lens) distortion.
Is this because it is a trial version or is this because it is PSE in stead of Photoshop CS?
does anybody know this?
I like to know before i buy PSE 8
I know i can correct in PSE itself but then i need to do for every photo itself and not in batch
Thanks in advance for an answer
Best regards,
Gluay

BArbara,
thanks. Yes i was talking about PSE8 for MAC.
It works now.
Best regards,

Opening files tiff files from desktop always open with Camera Raw with Photoshop 2014

Why do my desktop tiff files which in the previous version of PS CC, opened directly into Photoshop (File>Open), but with PS 2014 always open into Camera Raw first? Is there a setting/preference that needs to be changed?

Preferences - Camera Raw...
Under JPEG and TIFF handling, change to "Disable TIFF support" to have images open straight into Photoshop.
Edit: R_Kelly, you beat me to it.

Compatibility of Camera Raw with Photoshop CS5

Just bought a new camera (Canon T3i). Took a scandisk full of pics in "Camera Raw". Tried to open in Photoshop and got messsage that "Camera Raw" from my camera is not compatible with Photoshop CS5. What can I do??

Download the most recent version of ACR which for CS5 is ACR 6.7. (which if you had mentioned your system I could have pointed you to the download). You'll just have to find it yourself in the Adobe Updates.
