Camera Support - Olympus e620

Hi All,
I've recently bought an Olympus e620, and Aperture 2.0 thinking there wouldn't be any problems with the camera being supported (given the E-3 is supported, and the formats are the same).
Unfortunately it seems the camera isn't supported, and as such I can't use Aperture for my photos without going through a rather involved conversion process (using Adobe Raw)
Does anyone know of any updates (in beta, perhaps) which are available for use? I'm perfectly happy to put up with bugs if it means I can use my copy of Aperture!
Thanks

This lack of support is shameful.
I spent an hour in the Birmingham Apple store last week. Saw an excellent demo of Aperture and like a fool I assumed that it would import .orf files from my Olympus e620. Paid £120.00 for it and it's completely USELESS!
The fact that it doesn't import my RAW files is an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE!
Why should I have to mess about with an intermediate step of converting to DNG by using a FREE piece of software from Adobe to enable this CrApple (not free) software to work?
Adobe? Aren't they a major competitor of Apple for photo imaging software?
Can someone from Apple please comment on this as a matter of urgency. Come on Apple. You used to be a good company - now we're all rapidly becoming rows in your spreadsheet who don't matter.
Pete.
Here's what you do:
1) Go back to the Apple store with your copy and (if you have one) your laptop. And your E-620.
2) Book a Genius, and get them to try and do it. Take lots of time. Lots and lots.
3) When it does not work, get a refund.
If you think you are a line on their spreadsheet, then don't make Apple a line in yours.
Then buy Lightroom.

No Raw support for Olympus e620

Cant believe aperture 3 does not have raw support for the Olympus E620. I am nearly ready to upgrade. Can Apple get there act together on this.

Harass the company - go to
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
select Aperture
and request support for the cameras that you use and want to be supported
Tell them you will have to migrate to LightRoom if they do not support the camera.
Now that Apple have moved to a new version of the Raw converter program they have little excuse for not adding these cameras.

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.

RAW support? Cameras supported list?

I've gotten my first Mac after 25 years of PCs (27" iMac with yellow tinged display, oh well)
I THINK this is going to be better (eventually, even the display I hope) but I cannot figure out how to do ANYthing right now.
Just tried to download my first pictures into iPhoto.
Got message to the effect of "No can do, Unrecognizable File Type" or something.
They were raw files, .orf (Olympus Raw File) files out of an Olympus E20 camera.
Does iPhoto not support raw as I thought?
Not support Olympus .orf files?
Not support this particular camera?
I can't find a list of cameras supported anywhere?
(this changeover of platforms is very taxing to me)
Any knowledge about what I'm trying to do would be much appreciated.
James

The list of supported cameras is here
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3825
The E20 isn't on it.
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback for feature requests.
iPhoto supports the same Raw formats as Aperture. The usual workaround for unsupported cameras is to convert them to DNG with Adobe's free Raw Converter.
Having seen a few people switch over can I suggest that the best thing you can do with iPhoto is get 100 pics into it and explore it rather than migrating your whole collection over at one go.
By all means post back if you need more help.

IPhoto does not support Olympus Raw

Understand that IPhoto does not support Olympus Raw, and since IPhoto will disappear from support next year, will the new Photo support this version of Raw?

It isn't just iPhoto - if RAW is supported, it will also be in Aperture and ( I believe, but am not sure) in Image Capture.
babowa,
I think, only Aperture and iPhoto are supported.
See the requirements in the Raw Compatibility updates:
Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01
System Requirements OS X 10.10 w/ iPhoto 9.6 or Aperture 3.6

8.3 Is Not Just for New Camera Support

I read all through the gumph when DPReview announced that ACR8.3 was available, and decided not to bother because it only seemed to support some new camera models. But just seen a post in John Nack's blog that suggests there's a bit more to it. So in case I was not the only person missing out...
http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2013/11/camera-8-3-rc-for-photoshop-cc-cs6-available-on-adobe -labs.html
or
Camera 8.3 RC for Photoshop CC & CS6 available on Adobe Labs
Camera Raw 8.3 is now available as a release candidate on Adobe Labs for Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC on Adobe Labs. For both versions it includes the new camera support mentioned below, and for Photoshop CC includes the following new features:
Whites and Blacks now support Auto Levels-like functionality via shift-double-click on the sliders.
Separate Auto Temperature and Auto Tint feature. Shift-double-click to invoke “auto temperature” and “auto tint” separately.
Ability to option-click shortcut in Synchronize, New Preset, Save Settings, and Copy/Paste (Bridge) dialog boxes. Option-click a checkbox to check that box exclusively. Option-click again to toggle previous checkbox state.
Set the background color of the work area. Context-click outside the image in the work area to select a background color from a popup menu.

I thought I started this thread in the Photoshop forum, but I guess it might have been moved. Just my mind set, because I never browse this forum. The thing is I had people like JJ in mind who I am not sure if he will continute with the CC trial, and may just use CS6, but I hadn't thought about the extra features being for CC only.

Third-party plug-in for camera support?

Hi. My Sony F707 is not on the list of digital cameras supported by OS X ... I'm on a brand-new MacBookPro, and I also have a PowerBook G4. The G4 used to work with the Sony, but I upgraded to Tiger a few months ago, and I guess I hadn't tried it since then ...
I don't have a card reader that will read the old skool "memory stick" format, and I'm hoping there's some kind of driver or software from a third party that will allow me to drop the images onto the desktop, if not import them into iPhoto.
Any advice is appreciated.

USB connect (normal, PTP) - put it in PTP mode for Mac OS X only.
Use the "System Profiler" (under the Apple menu) to make sure your camera is recognized. Then use Image Capture (Applications folder) to get the files off your camera.

Pentax Optio W60: Is this camera supported?

Is this camera supported by iPhoto? I have tried numerous ways to import the photos into iPhoto, although nothing works. Am I missing a driver? The avi. files will not play with quicktime either. Normally you plug in an sd card via usb and away you go, the iPhoto importer opens automatically. This does not happen. Nothing happens. I have saved the jpeg files onto my desktop and dragged them into iPhoto, I get this reply:
"The application iPhoto quit unexpectedly. The problem may have been caused by the Avilmporter plug-in"
I have even tried to import with image capture, but all it does is safe the jpegs on my desktop.
Help!

If the camera shoots jpeg then yes, it is supported.
"The application iPhoto quit unexpectedly. The problem may have been caused by the Avilmporter plug-in"
Remove the AviImporter plug in. This is usually found in one of two Quicktime Folders:
HD/Library/ Quicktime
or
HD/Users / Your Name / Library / Quicktime
If the avi files you import then do not play, try install Perian

Is the multi shoots feature for the new iso 7 camera supports iphone 5 or just the 5S

Is the multi shoots feature for the new iso 7 camera supports iphone 5 or just the 5S

The 10 fps burst mode will only be available on the iPhone 5s. I believe all of the other features for sharpening photos from multiple shots are iPhone 5s only as well.

RAW Camera Support

On an otherwise big news day for Aperture users, Apple has let down the Leica community once again by not including RAW camera support for the M9 rangefinder. Leica provided M9s to Apple back in September, and Apple should have had more than enough time to include RAW support for the M9 in Aperture 3. Many pro photographers and Leica owners are mac owners, and expect more of Apple. Come on Apple, please deliver the goods.

Aperture 2.0 does read M9 DNG / RAW files, but it does not support the M9 with a camera specific RAW profile. Instead, it applies the RAW profiles Apple created for Leica's M8 and M 8.2. The results are OK, but with the M9's full frame sensor, they fall far short of what would be achieved with an M9 specific RAW profile that reads the M9's internal configuration data. Apple has had M9s from Leica since September, when the M9 was introduced. The expectation of M9 and mac owners has been that by now, Apple would have developed a specific RAW profile for and supported the M9. Without such support, many M9 owners have been taking a pass on Aperture, and Aperture 1.0 and 2.0 owners will surely not upgrade to Aperture 3 without an M9 profile.

Will Adobe Premiere Pro support Olympus E-P1 videos and when?

Premiere Pro does not support Olympus PEN E-P1 videos.
Will this be supported and any indication of when?

How would appealing to Professionals by excluding windows XP be suicidal? Assuming the next version takes a year or so; what pro editer will be running a 32 OS a year from now?
I didn't say anything about "professionals" (that's your addition) and I didn't say anything about Windows XP. As far as I'm aware, even Windows 7 will still be available as a 32-bit version. And I would submit that a large percentage--perhaps even a majority, though I have no numbers to back this hunch up--of the installed Premiere Pro user base are not what we would typically classify as "professionals". I quick reading of a cross-section of posts on this very forum should be evidence enough of that. I think the notion of a "video professional" went out the window when desktop video editing software and production equipment became affordable to Every Joe, and I say this as someone who considers himself a "video professional" and tries to make his living as such. The barriers to entry were removed, and for better or worse, Adobe is largely responsible for that--giving Premiere away for free with hardware back in the day, or providing the Creative Suite bundles today, for example. This is why Avid, which was always The Professional's Choice (tm) had to do away with half of their product line and slash the price on their flagship product to an obscenely affordable level. They realized that prestige meant nothing for market share and for profit.
I don't think Adobe necessarily cares too much about being the professional's choice at this stage of the game, at least not with their video editing product. They want to be as much to as many as possible--there is little benefit in being elite, and a move at this time to a solely 64-bit platform is elitist. They are digital media socialists, at least while they're trying to overtake Avid and Apple. I think of Premiere Pro in its present state as sort of a gateway drug--it may be as hardcore as you need to get, or once you get a taste, you need to move on to something a little more powerful. Look at how Premiere now interfaces with Avid (AAF import/export) and FCP (XML import): it's the digital equivalent of passing the dutchie. Once they've got enough loyalists, I do believe you'll see a move to an all 64-bit platform--but not until everyone's feeling reeeeeeeeally gooooooood.
Rats. Now you've got me thinking all seriously about this. Somebody pass the chips.

Tethered Camera Support for Nikon D3200

I need to shoot in tethered capture mode and have found that my D90 in not fully supported in this mode. A D7000 is fully supported, but will cost somewhat more than I had hoped to spend. The new D3200 would be an excellent match for our needs (dental photography). My question: Does anyone know if this camera is supported in tethered capture and if not, does Adobe plan on adding it as a compatible camera anytime soon?
Thanks,
J S Mott

Doubtless Adobe knows, but this is a user to user forum, so I wouldn't hold your breath for anything formal from Adobe here except "eventually". Maybe.

60% of the cameras 'supported' in 3.2 that take video use AVCHD

Of the cameras purported to be newly supported in LR 3.2, 8 shoot video. Of those 8, 5 use the AVCHD codec (and one of the remainders doesnt shoot HD). The 5 that use AVCHD include the LX5 and the Sony Nex cameras, both likely to be popular as compact cameras for those who normally use a DSLR.
It seems a bit silly and shortsighted that Lightroom doesnt support AVCHD, when it is rapidly becoming the most popular format. Even the newest cameras that Adobe is trying to develop support for, the majority use a format that LR ignores.
The problem will only get worse, as Nikon is reputed to be using AVCHD in its new DSLRs.
At the very least perhaps new announcements could specifiy whether or not the full camera is supported, because when you tout video as a key selling feature of LR3 one might assume that a claim of supporting that camera would include more then just still images.

I want lightroom to work properly, where on earth did you get the idea I did not want video?
Thronsen wrote:But just as a basic point of education, its alot more then 5 cameras that use AVCHD. Its 5 cameras just out of the 8 that LR recently supported.
You mentioned 5, I am now more educated, thank you for that apologies to the other manufacturers of those cameras, I have shot video for many many years, but using professional equipment for TV, commercials and documentaries, I am not yet as familiar using with DSLR's to shoot video, compression is always an issue and ACHD does cause ugly artefacts, but it is plenty better than many of the prosumer codecs.
If you dont want to use your camera for video, thats up to you. But many people do, in fact apparently the highest growth segment of DSLR purchses are video people.
I can't wait to get the new Canon 3D with even better video support than the 7D, Cant wait to use video commercially in the shoots I do.
And Im pretty sure the LR staff, or at least Adobe disagrees with you. Video was one of the most important changes highlighted in virtually every piece of marketing material I saw. On the main LR page it was listed 3rd.
I"m sure lightroom working properly was the 1st, I was talking about priorities.
Finally, please dont make the same tired argument about how tough it would be to implement editing.
so, its easy to write Final Cut Pro 7 for lightroom is it? Barely a tired argument.
All most want is the ability for LR to import the videos (so we dont need 2 programs to do so), show a thumbnail (so we can see our videos mixed with our photos from the same shoot), and hand off the video to the OS or chosen player. All of which is already done by LR for other formats (and all of which is done for free by Windows 7 natively).
That was my list of questions I asked you,
"And anyway, what do you want to be able to do with AVCHD? edit? record? Store? Playback?"
Is that not a fair question to ask you?
I simply asked a couple of very pertinent questions, and I can read and write to any post I want to. I did not expect to get some kind of bullish response.

Still no galaxy camera support?

is there any good reason why this app is not available on the galaxy camera?
i sideloaded it by restoring a backup from my phone(galaxy note 2) and it works perfectly.

Apple puts raw support at the operating system level. The advantage of this is that once the OS has it, everything in OS X gets it. The disadvantage with this, is that for even one camera to get an update, Apple has to test and greenlight an update for the entire OS, meaning a user with a new camera must always wait until the next 10.x.xx update comes out, whenever that is. It will be interesting to see if they break camera support out into its own update, like they do with QuickTime, AirPort, and other features. It sure would probably work better that way.

Native XD-CAM support

I was at NAB and was talking to the guy demonstrating working with FCP Sudio 6 and XD-CAM. He said that the new version of FCP supports native XD-CAM files but I thought that they are MXF wrapped whereas FCP is QuickTime based.
So my question is... does this mean that FCP will now work native MXF as well as QuickTime? This will be a big help as I need to push clips to and from an MXF media server as fast as possible without time being wasted re-wrapping the files.

Thanks Andy,
So this shows that FCP is still QT only and I guess the 'native' XD-CAM support is only relating to the codec and not the wrapper so in my mind I wouldn't call it truly native but at least you have clarified the exact support.
I'll runs some tests to see how quick the wrapping process is when sending to playout.
