Can I send my raw file from my camera to someone?

I would like it if someone would allow me to send my raw Sony camera file to them on DVD so that you can see what I'm doing wrong... when I import it into PP CS4 I get video but no audio, and when I export it... the file is wacked out unwatchable (a sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kaHnGkHGJ0k)
If someone is willing to help me, please contact me

Ooh boy, there's your problem....
You aren't going to like what I have to say, but keep in mind that I do believe things will get better in the future. Your cam records with the AVCHD codec. Now I really do see this as the codec of the future; however, right now no editing apps work well with it on a PC, and I do mean NO editing apps including Premiere. CS4 is Adobe's first attempt to edit AVCHD and nobody is having luck with it. To top it off, your cam also records 5.1 surround audio. That's also likely to be a caveate when trying to use CS4.
What most guys are doing is transcoding to another codec before editing. Unfortunately, it will cost you a bit of money to do so. Here's one converter software you can try, although I don't think it can handle surround sound or even AC3 stereo, so I'm guessing it either won't read the audio or it will change it to another stereo format:

If I were you I would put up another question in this forum asking for reccomendations for transcoding software for the AVCHD codec with 5.1surround sound. There must be somebody else in this forum who has already been doing this for a while that can assist you better than myself. I can tell you that Final Cut Pro seems to edit this format really well for most people, but of course you have to be using a MAC for that.

I have just bought a Panasonic Lumix compact camera. Aperture and Preview can't open the RAW files from this camera. Panasonic recommend downloading 'SYLKPIX Developer Studio SE' to save RAW file formats.How can Aperture and Preview read the files?

Either use 'SYLKPIX Developer Studio SE' to develope the RAW files and to save them in another lossless format like TIFF, or try if Adobe's free DNG Coverter can convert your Lumix RAW files to dng. Then import the dngs. This way, your files will still be RAW files. This works (most times) for my Lumix FZ28.

I can't open three raw files from Adobe Camera Raw to Nik Efex

Something strange is going on that never happened before. I used to be on CS6 but now am on CC with the latest Adobe Camera Raw. I used to be able to select three photos in camera raw and then click Tools and then I'd see my Nik Efex plugins and choose which one I wanted. But all I see now is Photoshop under Tools at the bottom as an available option to open the files.
How do I open three files into Nik Efex HDR from Camera Raw? Is there something wrong here or am I just not doing things correctly. It seems I was doing this before and now I can't.

Oh good lord. I can't believe I spent so much time on this and it's right there under Google. Thank you so much! Happy Thanksgiving!

I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - no joy. Any ideas please?

I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion (10.7.4) - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - all up to date apparently but still no joy. OS X Lion shows the LX5 as a supported file format. I dont want to have to upgrade to Mountain Lion just to see if this solves the problem. Any ideas please.

Since when did this happen? Directly after you upgraded to Aperture 3.3.2?
If it happened directly after the upgrade the problem may be, that the raw support for your camera got lost. For some posters it helped to register the raw support again, see this post by Alan Roseman:
Aperture 3 preview of raw file greenish
If this does not help, you may need to reinstall Lion to bring back the raw support.
But if the problem occured independent of a new installation, ypu may have a problem with your camera or the card you are using. Have you tried to use a different card or to reformat the card in the camera?

Why can't i open raw files from my eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

Why can't i open raw files from me eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

Because your camera is newer than your software.
You need ACR 8.7 which was released this week, to open CR2 files from the 7D.2. Only current Adobe products can use this version, which would be PSE13 and the Photoshop versions CS6, CC & 2014 and some Adobe video products.
You can also use the free DNG Converter 8.7 to create DNGs of a folder of images at a time, and then open those DNGs in an older PSE version, but you’ll never be able to open the native CR2 files unless you update the host software to the current versions.
The DNG Converter 8.7 is available from the Adobe Updates page:

I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D4s camera in photoshop? How do I download the latest software for RAW files? Cheers!

What version of Photoshop are you running? You will need at CS5, CS6, CC or CC2014. Each version needs a different ACR-plug-in to open files from that camera.
If you are on CS4 or earlier, you'll need to upgrade—or, in the alternative; look for, download, instal, launch and run the free, stand-alone DNG Converter 8.6 on each file of raw NEF files to convert them to raw DNGs first so you can open them in your version of Photoshop and ACR plug-in higher than 2.4.

I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop cs5, but they dont save properly after editing

I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop, but then after I have edited, i save as .raw, and open up the newly saved file and it just comes up as a grey messed up picture. What am I doing wrong?

Yes, it is preferable to do as much editing on the raw files as you can including global and local tone & color correction in Camera Raw...but there is a limit to the work you can do and sometimes you must go ahead and render the raw file into Photoshop for additional work. Then you'll be needing layers and other functionality that can't be done on a raw file. At that point you'll need to save as a TIFF or PSD. If you work in 16 bit and a large enough color space, the TIFF or PSDs will still be capable of the highest quality...as others have indicated, the Photoshop .raw file format ain't for photography per se.

How can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

how can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

You can download the 7.1 DNG converter to make copies of your canon raw files in the adobe dng format, which can then be opened in pse 9.
As said above the the latest camera raw plugin 6.5 for pse 9 won't open those files directly, but will open the the converted dng files.

Can Aperture 3 read Raw files from Canon G1X?

Is Aperture 3 capable of reading Raw files from a Canon G1X?
I'm currently using an elderly version of IPhoto, having resisted upgrading because of negative feedback about the latest version. My IPhoto version cannot read the Raw files from the G1X. I also tried importing one into Picassa, but the colours looked completely wierd.
I'm now considering buying Aperture 3 but will maybe wait until:
a. Aperture 4 is released and;
b. I know that Aperture can indeed read the Raw files from the G1X.
Any help/advice gratefully received.
Frank P

see this list:
Aperture 3: Wide raw support for leading cameras:
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
Your camera is supported by Aperture 3.
P.S. and the camera is supported by MacOS X 10.7.4.,
see: OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757
What is your MacOS version? Perhaps upgrading to 10.7.4 should make the raw support available in iPhoto too.

Will we ever be able to import RAW files from iPad camera roll into Lightroom Mobile?

Is this a planned feature, or should I look elsewhere for iPad photo editing?
I only shoot in RAW and I would sometimes like to do a quick edit in the field. As it stands, Lightroom Mobile is a completely useless application for me. Needing to import the photos to my Macbook in order to use a dumbed-down version of Lightroom makes no sense to me. Why do I need Lightroom Mobile if I need to have my computer with me to use it anyways?
Without this feature, I don't quite understand what Lightroom Mobile is supposed to accomplish. Is it purely for people who only own a desktop and need to perform basic edits on the go? Is that a large enough demographic to develop an entire app? Even if it is meant for only those people, it would still likely be far more useful to them if they could import RAW photos in the field and not have to stop by their studio/home to import and move into a collection first.

The likely real reason why Adobe doesn't do this yet even though many people have requested it is that it would cost them dearly in bandwidth and storage capacities. Right now only smallish lossy compressed, downscaled dngs or simple jpegs travel to and from Adobe's servers which is tenable. Sending full raw files from 24+ MP cameras is probably not something they can realistically do yet. Having the iPad try to generate the lossy dng will likely show how very low powered they are in comparison to a simple laptop and is likely not yet a realistic solution so you'd still have to send the file online and have the dng generated by a server.
I use the mobile thing for simple iPad slideshows and simple portfolios. The color is really good as the current generation of iPad screens is very well done with close to sRGB gamut. I'll sometimes do some simple edits but it is really not very useful for that yet. It shows promise but is not useful as a laptop replacement yet on trips. You're better off getting a lightweight laptop (many cheapo ultralight windows ones out there nowadays and the MacBook Airs are great for this) and running the full Lightroom on that if you are traveling.

Elements 10 can not read the raw-files from my Sony a-57

The raw-converter is updatet to 6.7 and according to Adobe it should be able to read Sony a-57. When I got Elements 10, a file had to be moved so it could read the raw-files from my Minolta 5D. Can this be the cause of the problem ? What to do ?

What version of ACR does Help / About Plug-ins… / Camera Raw… show you, and is more than one Camera Raw listed in About Plug-ins…?
