Canon 40D RAW Files and Leopard???

Hi all,
Haven't actually bought Leopard yet (have to wait till pay day!!) but have a pretty serious question to ask.
Has anyone tried opening the RAW files from a Canon 40D on Leopard?? Just I know that in 10.4.10 they are simply unsupported. Just in case no-one has access to a 40D at the moment, here is a link to a 40D RAW file (zipped). If someone would be so kind as to try it out and post back, I would really appreciate it!! It's killing me having to use JPG in Aperture!!!

Yes, 40D raw files are now able to be opened by Preview.
I just upraded to Leopard, and in addition to confirming that 40D files are now recognized by Preview, iPhoto'08 and Aperture, I noticed another interesting new feature.
- in Leopard, you don't even need to open Preview or any other app to view RAW files.
the new Quick Look feature in the Finder views all sorts of files right from the Finder, including 40D RAW files.
Just tap the spacebar with any image file (or files) selected in the Finder, and up pops the Quick Look window. works for RAW or JPEG. you can switch to full screen view too. if you have more than 1 file selected you can view index sheet or slideshow, like the old right-click feature in Tiger. works in any Finder view - icon, list, browser and Cover Flow too. looks very handy.
p.s. the Finder Get Info in Leopard now correctly displays EXIF data, including proper shutter speed and aperture (Tiger did not display aperture, and shutter speed was awkwardly displayed in decimal, not a common fraction)

  • When will iphoto accept Canon 40D raw files?

    When will iphoto accept Canon 40D raw files? I have a new camera and would love to use the raw files in iphoto. No luck so far. Aperature seems to lack the abilty to open them also. Anyone here as to when iphoto will be updated?

    Hi again.
    No, I don't use aperture, I tried the demo and liked it, but I'd previously bought the commercial version of Pixmantec RawShooter converter for my 10D - Pixmantec were 'bought out' by Adobe, and Adobe generously offered all RawShooter purchasers a free licence for Lightroom, which I also like a lot (though haven't fully got to grips with), so can't currently justify Aperture too.
    The one thing I'd say about Aperture is that the colour management for some reason just nailed the colours when printing using canned profiles, in a way other apps hadn't on Windows (including QImage). I was particularly impressed by this using an old Epson 1290S A3+ printer which always tended to produce prints with a colour cast.
    iPhoto seems to handle RAW conversions very well and simply, although it's not as refined as the high end apps. This together with organising features are probably what make you find it so easy. Remember though that when you display/tweak RAW files, iPhoto will be creating a file to store these changes as the RAWs do not get directly manipulated. As all this is done behind the scenes again this probably makes it seem easy.
    If you don't have Aperture or Lightroom, both were available for 30 day demo last time I checked.

  • When will LR read Canon 40D RAW files?

    Any ideas when Adobe will post an update for the new Canon 40D RAW files?
    Neither LR 1.1 or ACR 4.1 can read them.
    Thats the major problem when new camera models are introduced and one have got used to the LR workflow.

    I know that when the 30D came out, it was not similar to the 20D. One main difference as these new models come out is that they are higher resolution than their predecessors. There was a hack that came out shortly after the 30D came out that managed to make ACR work by using the 1D Mark II specification (I think), but it did not work reliably.
    At the time, the history was that ACR was being updated about every 4 months if for nothing more than to accommodate new cameras. If you assume that that pace would continue, then ACR would be "due" late September, and LR maybe a month after that.
    That is pure speculation on my part based on history, no guarantees, of course.

  • Camera Raw 4.4.1 has bug with Canon 40D raw files

    I shoot with the Canon 20D, 30D, 40D, 1DMII, and the Rebel XTI. The Raw processor is showing an anomaly only with the 40D files. When I load raw images, and when the image is displayed, it is shown at one setting. Then in 3 seconds, its updated again at about 1/2 stop brighter. Each time I click on another image on the left column, same thing. The new image is displayed, then 3 seconds later, updated at about 1/2 stop brighter. THe histogram reflects the changes showing the data moving to the right. This only happens with the 40D raw files.
    Whats up?
    It happens regardless if "Auto" or "Default" is selected. I use "default" as a norm, never letting PS do an auto correction.
    How do I stop Camera Raw from doing the second update? This has to stop.

    Thanks John,
    Now moved to ACR -

  • Canon 60D RAW files and Apperture 3.0

    I have OS X 10.5.8 and Aperture 3.0. My new Canon 60D RAW files can not be seen either in Aperture or Finder. Is there newer version for Aperture or is it the OS X that is too old?

    Here is a list of raw formats supported by the current Aperture version:
    Raw Support for Leading Cameras: http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    The current Aperture Version is AP 3.2.2., and to use the most recent raw support, you need to be running AP 3.2.2. and MacOS 10.6.8 or later.
    If you find your camera in the list of supported cameras, you might consider to update your OS, if your hardware does support the newer systems.

  • Canon G15 raw files and DNG converter

    DNG 7.2 does not include the G15 raw file format. When will the Canon G15 raw files (CR2) be converted by the DNG converter?
    This a question to the Adobe staff. Thanks for your answer.

    You can use the DNG Converter 7.3 Release Candidate currently available on Adobe Labs:

  • Cannot recognize Canon 40D RAW file

    My Photoshop CS3 Extended cannot recognize the raw files generated in my Canon 40D, however this camera is on the list of recognized cameras. This camera generates files with extension .cr2. I downloaded the updates to photoshop CS3 and the DNG Converter 4.3.1, but still no luck. I am working on a Mac, if that makes any difference. Any suggestions on what else I can try?
    Thanks.

    >I downloaded the updates to photoshop CS3
    Did you also download, decompress and correctly install the ACR 4.3.1 plug-in, replacing the old one in the same location? Are you sure you downloaded and install the Mac version of said plug-in and not the Windoze version?
    When you go to the Photoshop menu > About Plug-in , does ACR 4.3.1 show up there and only once?
    Did you purge the Cache for each folder through the Tools menu in Bridge after that?
    All of that has to be done precisely according to the very detailed instructions.

  • Canon D1X Raw Files and IPhoto 6.0.6

    I'm unable to load Raw files into IPhoto 6.0.6 from my Canon G1X on a Macbook Pro using OS 10.7.4.
    I've resisted upgrading to a later version of IPhoto because of the negative comments about the later versions, and indeed never would as my existing version does all I need - except for this small problem, of course :-)
    If anybody can provide a work-around so that I can read these Raw files in 6.0.6, I would be very grateful.
    Regards,
    Frank Pole

    As long as you have a copy of the Library that's not upgraded...
    Later versions of iphoto update the Library (to cope with added features and so on) and early versions cannot open the later version. So keep a copy of the library not updated and yes, you can go back.

  • Canon 50D RAW Files and PSE6

    I've followed the instructions to add the latest Camera RAW files but still cannot get PSE6 Organizer to recognize the RAW files from my Canon 50D. The editor has no problem recognizing them and allowing edits to take place. Anyone have additional ideas to remedy this?

    The issue happens either when downloading from a card or attempting to open the files from the card reader or a folder. I get the message "You are attempting to open a file that is an unrecognizable format or is corrupted." I got similar responses from the Canon software and Irfanview until they were updated with the latest rev that included the 50D.

  • Cs3 extended bridge not previewing canon 40d raw files

    ok, i just loaded cs3 extended onto my laptop and when i opened bridge the fist time i got a error message that these were not the the right king of file. so my next step was to update ACR to 4.5. i intalled that and put the plugin into files directory. that worked, but now my problem is that bridge will not preview my raw files in bridge. i then went to tool and purge the cache and that also didn't work. so my next step was to update bridge to 2.1.1. so i went back to tool to purge the cache and it still not preview raws in bridge. i converted  several to jpegs and they show up in bridge. i am at a loss of what to do next
    thanks

    The ACR plug in has to be in correct folder and only one copy there.  If you copied it there the old copy my be present so delete or rename it.
    The ACR plug in does not go in the plug in directory. 
    It goes in Program Files/COMMON Files/Adobe/plugins/CS3/file formats.   Should be one file here - Camera Raw.8bi
    I think when you get this sorted out it should work.

  • I use Photoshop CS4 Extended.  Today I went to load a Canon CR2 Raw file and Photoshop could not open it.  Any help?

    I had to reload my software about month back,  would this have anything to do with this issue?

    Check for yourself here:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    To check what version you currently have installed, in Photoshop choose Help - About Plug-in..., and pick Camera Raw from the list.

  • Canon 40D RAW (CR2) Files import

    I've Photoshop and Aperture. Cannot install Elements which would be my preference - so help needed here.
    Also - I use iPhoto mostly in the latest Apple OS, yet I cannot import Canon 40D RAW files. I get an error message saying they could not be imported - import failed.
    Help please.
    Freshacre

    Freshacre:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What version of PS Elements are you trying to install? I've installed the PSE 6 demo without any problem.
    What type of files are you trying to import and from where?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 created 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Camera Raw 4.4.1 still unable to preview Canon 40D CR2 files

    Even after installing Camera Raw 4.4.1 plugin update as per installation instructions and purging central Cache...I am still unable to preview Canon 40D Raw (CR2) or Digital Negative (DNG) files on CS3 Bridge or Photoshop.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

    Jeff..thanks for your helpful feedback. OS used is Vista. After recieving your suggestion I confirmed that I saved the plug-in to Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats - and then rebooted the system. This seemed to resolve the problem and i can now preview raw file.
    Jeff, thanks again. Cheers, Doug

    You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
