Canon 4k Raw sequence being brought in skewed

Just shot a project on the Canon C500 & Gemini 444 in Canon Raw (UHD) and come across an odd problem (though perhaps there's an obvious solution).  When I select the footage in the media browser and the preview is created for some reason the footage is skewed (it's all there an plays).  This remains the case even after I import the footage.  I've attached a screenshot to better describe what I mean.  The footage opens fine in both Da Vinci Resolve & Canon's own development software so just wondering whether I'm missing something really obvious.
I know I have a couple of alternative workflows that I could use to avoid this but would be grateful if any one has any suggestions since this would be less than ideal

Never did get an answer to this problem - in the end I opted for slightly different workflow. 
For my first project I had recorded MXF on the camera as an extra backup.  However under the circumstances I used these as a proxy for the editing process (in Premiere) then imported the project into Resolve - replaced the MXF files in resolve with their Canon Raw couterparts did a basic color correction and exported the project (clip by clip) as DPX files, which I then brought back into Premiere for the rest of my post work flow (green screen material).  Then back into resolve for the Grade.
My second project was somewhat more substantial and required greater flexibility so I actually 'developed' pretty much all my raw footage into DPX (using the Canon Development software) - it was honestly a time consuming process - there was a lot of footage to process -  (not helped by the fact that Canon Development software is really clunky) and obviously more than doubled my storage requirements but allowed me more flexibility in the edit.
To the best of my knowledge still no solution to the RTF format issue in Premiere Pro, however hope this helps.  If you'd like the specifics of my process  feel free to get in touch, it wasn't quite as straight forward as I'd hoped but ultimately possible.

  • Is there any hope of older Canon CRW RAW format being supported?

    I have many RAW pictures taken on a Canon Powershot G1 that uses the older CRW format. These import, but do not render in Aperture. Is there any hope that this format will ever be supported?
    (As an aside, these have never rendered in iPhoto either).
    Brad

    <snip>
    I wish that the raw support in the OS were user upgradable so that I could program my own G1 plug-in or get some open source support. Of course, opening up the interpretation of raw formats to third parties might introduce a thorny set of problems.
    </snip>
    Chris -- I thought the same thing, and had thought about posting it, but didn't. You are exactly right -- RAW converters ought to be plugin implementations of an open, published plugin API. Then it wouldn't be a game of blind wait-and-see, either for a camera to be supported, or for quality problems in a supported camera format to be fixed. Someone else could program alternatives, until Apple chose to release their own plugin versions.
    I guess its worth adding that as a software programmer, I'm a little perplexed at how any major software application from a significant corporation with obvious functionally same, but repetitious variants of componentry (such as supporting many different RAW formats) is designed without pluggability. Of course, it probably is pluggable -- the API just hasn't been opened up, which could be for various reasons: either to make Apple the sole source for upgrades in functionality, or because the API is still in a state of flux (publishing an API prior to API stability is bad news).
    At any rate, I hope an SDK/API for Aperture eventually emerges.

  • Problem opening Canon 6D RAW even after upgrade today to PS CS6, WinXP-SP3

    Givens: PS CS5>CS6 upgrade via $199USD download today, Non-CC upgrade. OS: WinXP SP3, camera: Canon 6D RAW (.CR2 files) and prefer to work on RAWs via Bridge.
    Main goal: view Canon 6D files in Bridge, do adjustments, open via ACR into PS CS6 for further work.
    My fav workflow for photos is: Bridge>ACR>PS. Just got a Canon 6D camera. So I updated to PS CS6 today and I did go through PS CS6 menu: help>update mechanism for all available updates, which was one round of ACR (and Bridge) updates, no more were offered. That brought ACR from v7.0.0.308 to v7.1.0.354--still could not see Canon 6D RAW files.  I went to Adobe.com and did manual download for ACR/DNG 7_3 but it did not enable Bridge to see my new camera files nor could I open the 6D .CR2 files in PS. Got PS error message about not recognizing filetype, update ACR, etc (which of course I just attempted). (Seems as through PS and Bridge did not know the ACR/DNG 7.3 "existed" IF that is a capability).
    Then I tried to install ACR 8.7 from the "Fix your 6D RAW problems page" and got error messages in PS CS6 (perhaps bc I am on 32-bit system). Decided to start from scratch; uninstalled PS CS6 upgrade.
    Secondary issue is: Now I have uninstalled PS CS6 and done System Restore to the point just after I downloaded PS CS6 upgrade. I want to reinstall but the installer fails. Support chat told me to download PS CS6 Upgrade again (doing that now), then reinstall.
    Solve: Main problem: Be able to work on Canon 6D RAW through Bridge and ACR (prefer NOT to workaround with DNG if possible) At time of writing, as mentioned, I am downloading PS CS6 upgrade again, then plan to reinstall. If that works, then I need steps to update ACR so that I can work on 6D RAWs through Bridge and ACR. Please know that going through Photoshop's Help>Update mechanism does NOT seem to work. Do I need manual updates? If so, please direct me to the correct ones and order of procedure to execute this upgrade successfully.
    Many thanks, Paul

    Yammer, thanks for the info about Camera Raw 8.3--that is my goal to load PS CS6 Upgrade and update to Camera Raw 8.3  Currently, I am having problems installing PS CS6 upgrade after uninstall. I have used Adobe CC Cleaner several times. It seemed to help, and the installer proceeded further with next try. Then I looked and there was no PS CS6 icons. I have done system restore also several times and am about to try again. It seems that my original PS CS6 upgrade installed, but when I tried to load ACR update, problems arose. Is there a way to remove recent version Camera Raw remnants from my computer. There is no Photoshop CS6 folder and further none for the CameraRaw.8bi for PS CS6. One possible clue: Yesterday I did two upgrades: 1) PS CS4>CS5 via box, then 2) PS CS5.CS6 on-line download non-CC. In one round of update, I saw that PS CS*5* Extension Manager failed to update. Seems unrelated but mentioned here for thoroughness.
    Running ACR 8.3 in XP SP3 would be most useful and timely today as I have work to do. Many thanks, Paul

  • Displayed white balance differs from camera value (Canon .CR2 raw)

    I've noticed that Lightroom will often display a sequence or group of pictures with a very visibly different white balance between consecutive frames.
    Looking at the EXIF info in a sample Canon .CR2 raw (EOS-350D), the recorded colour temperature is 5200K (camera set for AWB), but Lightroom reports this as 4950K after import. For the next frame (continuous shot), the EXIF colour temperature is again 5200K, but Lightroom reports 4900K.
    This still happens in LR1.2 (on newly imported photos).
    Why does Lightroom appear to make its own decision for white balance rather than use the recorded value?
    Thanks,
    Barrie

    In any case, I'm worried about the discrepancy
    between Aperture and Camera Raw on something so
    basic.
    Sorry I can't help you directly with Aperture as I haven't bought it - yet. However, re-the above quote, I'd just mention that the interpretation of colour temperature values is not quite as simple as it might seem. Even more so when you bear in mind that RAW converters from 3rd parties like Adobe or Apple are not based on the RAW conversion engine produced by the camera manufacturer - in effect they have to guess/estimate what the temp/tint values in the RAW file actually mean...
    Some time back I made a series of tests using 3 Canon cameras, with ACR, Capture One & the Canon RAW converter. Each produced noticeably different results, and C1 & ACR showed quite different temp/tint values. (The Canon software only showed 'As Shot' - no values). The differences were consistent between shots from each camera (using WB values input or AWB) - but they weren't consistent from one camera to another. Which program produced the best result depended very much on the Camera/Subject/Personal taste...
    Hope someone can help with Aperture specific info, I'm sure there must be a way of making camera specific adjustments to the RAW conversions...

  • Canon G1X RAW won't open in PSCS5

    Even though Camera Raw plug-in lists G1X RAW as supported, PSCS5 will not open the RAW  .cr2 files. Camera Raw plugin version 6.6.0.261
    Likewise, Adobe DNG Converter says it will, but will not. Likewise Lightroom 3.
    I have seen mention of a beta 6.7 that will, but I am a publisher, and don't like having to use beta software!
    Why is Adobe behind on this? The G1X is being sold (I have one), and should be supported in PS and Lightroom
    PSCS5 12.0.4 x64
    DNG Converter 6.6.0.261
    Lightroom 3 3.6 with Camera Raw 6.6

    The Canon G1X RAW file format is currently supported in LR4 and should be supported with ACR 6.7 for PS.  There is a release-candidate available for ACR 6.7 at Adobe Labs:  http://labs.adobe.com/ along with the DNGC 6.7 RC.
    It is your choice whether to use ACR 6.7 RC (or corresponding DNGC 6.7 RC) or wait for the release version of ACR 6.7.  If you need to wait, then take comfort that there is a beta which means Adobe is working on a solution that should work for you.
    Be aware that there is a bug with ACR 6.7 RC when using PV2012 and LR4 so if you are thinking of upgrading to that, soon, then there will be rendering differences using PV2012 until Adobe updates ACR 6.7 to either RC2 or the release version.  With LR3.x you can only use up to PV2010 or earlier and the bug doesn’t manifest, there.

  • Canon 60D RAW Photo Granulation in LR3 normal? Or is this a BUG?

    Hello, in most Photos from Canon 60D RAW is the Photo Granulation very high in LR3.
    Is this normal or is this a bug?
    This photo grain occurs immediately after the load on the RAW file without any aftertreatment.
    It looks as if the LR3 sharpens automatically.

    The noise granularity is normal when working with RAW files because this is how the data comes off the sensor.
    It can help to change your LR defaults to use a sharpen mask that is quite high.  I use 75.  The higher the sharpen mask the more distinct the edge needs to be before the capture-sharpening is applied.  Hold down the Alt-key while you adjust the Mask slider to see what is being sharpened and make it high enough that the general areas are not sharpened, only the edges.
    For lower ISOs, this noise isn't necessarily a big problem for ink-jet printing that already consists of little dots, and actually helps the export sharpening have something to bite on if you are resizing significantly smaller, but it can be a problem is you are cropping down instead of resizing and displaying images close to full-resolution.  In this case you'll want to adjust the Luminance slider up a bit more than normal. Don't go overboard with it, though.
    Having worked with RAW files for many years, I actually prefer my images to be a little grainy and don't like in-camera JPGs where things are smoothed out too much.

  • New Canon 60D RAW in Aperture

    In case anyone is still having probelms in working in RAW prior to Ap3 camera list being updated here is how i get around it. Download Adobe dng free converter. Load the Canon camera software that comes with the 60D.
    Import raw files from camera into the Canon software. Move those files to a folder on your desktop. Then open the Adobe dng converter and select the folder on your desk top conatining the camera RAW files. Convert the files in the Adobe converter. Then back in the Canon software drag all the converted files straight into the Ap3 icon. You now have a folder containing RAW files in Ap almost as good as original but not quiet. A long process so hopefully Ap3 will be updated soon with the 60D JohnT

    Answering myself:
    RAW compatibility support is not Aperture independent, it is a OS wide issue. To get support for Canon 60D RAW you must upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.5 as described here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3825.
    I've just completed such upgrade and I can now see my RAW images in the finder (with quick preview). However, upgrading rendered my Aperture useless as launching it reports "Aperture can not be opened because of a Problem". Off to the forums... Feel like I'm setting up Linux here... Apple!

  • Seeing Canon G9 raw images

    Now that Aperture recognizes Canon G9 raw files, how can I make this happen for G9 raw files already imported into Aperture? I previously imported raw and jpg images from the G9. The 10.5.2 update still does not recognize G9 raw files.
    Many thanks.
    Richard Clompus

    Based on earlier parts of this thread I ran out this morning to get the Aperture 2.0 upgrade. After installing it and the two online updates one of which was the graphic upgrade I now find that it doesn't even acknowledge there are any Canon G9 CR2 files. At least before the upgrade 1.5 would import the file and give a distorted preview.
    I can use the DNG conversion route for 2.0 and for Iphoto. It seems a real shame to have to go through this extra step.
    It looks like for each step forward it ends up being two steps backward. It looks like it was something with the online upgrade, probably the graphics one.
    Help!

  • Lightroom 5.5 Canon 5DIII raw files misinterpreted

    When I import Canon 5DIII raw files into Lightroom 5.5 some of the file end up with rectangular areas of garbage, often diagonal lines.
    The problem is generally remedied by importing the file again.
    I use Downloader Pro to get cards from the CF card and then import into Lightroom.
    I have tried different memory cards but doubt this is the problem because reimporting same file generally solves the problem.

    My guess is that the files are corrupted—part of the raw data is missing.  The slight curvature of the border is due to a lens profile being applied.
    If the situation can be fixed by redownloading the file, then something must be happening in the transfer.
    If this cannot always fix the situation then perhaps the card is bad and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.  If downloading the file multiple times always results in exactly the same corruption then I’d guess the image is on the card that way.  You can try using another way to download like Explorer or Finder, and see if the same situation happens.
    If you want to upload one of the files that LR says is corrupted, others can test it to see if it is also bad on their systems.  Sometimes a computer’s memory is bad on the image will only look bad in LR, but usually this manifests as things streaks and spots, not a block in the corner.

  • 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.

  • How to open canon 70D RAW files in Lightroom 4?

    I have udated LR 4 to LR 4.4. It is supposed to open the newer Canon camera RAW files like the 70D. After updating with the download from Adobe LR ver. 4 will still not open the 70D RAW files. Does anyone have any suggestion? I must be doing something incorrect or am missing a step to the update. Thanks!

    Not so, 70D support was added in Lightroom 5.2 ... Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    You have a choice to upgrade to Lightroom 5.6 or use the DNG convertor to convert the CR2 files to DNG and import.

  • Horrible Adobe Chat Experience - How to open Canon 6D Raw files in CS5?

    Hi, I just had an awful Adobe Chat experience with agent Dharma. I waited a very long time and when Mr. Dharma finally was able to help me, he wasn't able to. I was told that my product would no longer be supported and I couldn't be helped by Adobe because it was CS5. I was also sent to a faulty link. Anyway, I recently purchased a Canon EOS 6D and when I tried uploading my photos to Photoshop CS5 it said my RAW photos could not be supported. I followed the appropriate links for support and help.
    My CS5 is updated, the Adobe Bride is updated. The extension for the photos is CR2 and they will not show the thumbnails in bridge and won't load in Photoshop. I need help. Now, I am hoping Adobe will support it's product and customer.

    As each new camera comes out, Adobe have to write the code that enables Camera RAW to work with its RAW files.  It is nrealistic to expect them to keep doing this for all previous versions of Photoshop.  The Canon 6D needs ACR7.3 which Photoshop CS6
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    You have several alternatives. 
    As an owner of CS5 you can take up the BUndle deal at $10 a month.
    You can download the free DNG conversion software, and convert your CR2 files to DNG which CS5 can read.
    You can buy Lightroom 5, oir even Lightroom 4 (if you can still find a copy)
    I'd go with the Bundle deal.  There is a lot more to CC than reading Canon 6D RAW files.

  • Adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.

    adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.
    why?
    need help!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Zach.
    Sorry to say but Elements 12 came out several months before your camera. Adobe stops updating camera raw files for old software editions so that people have to buy new versions of the software when they get a new camera. It happened to me with LR3 when I got a new camera.
    There are works rounds but they are a lot of extra steps and I think you would be converting the files to Some format other than RAW (tiff?) and which I am not sure will perform the same.
    I think you just need to get a newer version of Elements.

  • Adobe Lightroom 5.7 does not recognize Canon 60D raw files. I have Camera Raw plugin 8.7 installed. Is there solution?

    Is this only when reading CR2 files on the camera memory card or also for CR2 files that were previously imported to your hard drive (i.e. ALL of your 60D CR2 files)?
    LR 5.7.1 is only at Camera Raw 8.7. so OK. What Bridge, PS, and OS versions are installed? In Bridge go to Help> About Bridge
    From inside Bridge launch any raw file and check the ACR version:
    From inside PS go to Help> System Info and check PS and OS version:
