Canon 60D and Aperture/iPhoto - RAW support?

I realize this camera isn't supported yet, so my question is really how long does it typically take Apple to begin supporting new RAW files after a camera's release? It's been about two months for this one :/ Month? Two months? Three months? Is a pattern documented anywhere?
Photoshop has supported the 60D for about a month now. That's frustrating.

I would be interested in seeing anything history of release dates and RAW file support dates also. I am a newbie with only a S95 but also interested in when Apple will release RAW support for my camera [it came out approximately the same time as the 60D]. I have been advised to be patient...it will happen. My issue is that I download a 30 day trial of Aperture before I realized at the moment I can only try it out on jpegs, not RAW. I just hope it happens before my 30 trial runs out.
I did put in a request through the Aperture comment function but was advised it was probably unnecessary since Apple is well aware of new Canon and Nikon cameras.

  • Canon XSi and aperture, both RAW and jpg viewing?

    I just got the Canon 450D and using Canon utility I see both the RAW and jpg pics import next to each other when I shoot in in the RAW and jpg mode. But I import to Aperture and I seem to only see one of them, the RAW one, not the jpg one. Is there a setting for this or am I missing something?
    Thanks

    Just right click and choose new version from master JPG.

  • Hi, i have a canon 60d and i have been importing videos from it onto my mac for months but suddenly when i go on image capture or iphoto it no longer allows me to import them help!!!

    Have you launched and tired Image Capture? When it's launched with the iPad connected the photos will display in the window.  Select those you want to upload and use the Import to: menu and select Other.  Navigate to the Desktop and select the folder you created to hold those photos.

  • I have a canon 60D and I'm trying to view images on the Ipad using the sd reader but no luck. Any help or ideas?

    I have a Canon 60D and I am unable to view or transfer photos to the Ipad using the SD Card reader. I have been able to view images with a Canon T3i. Are there certain settings I need to set on the 60d or should it work automatically? anythoughts or ideas? thanks

    Are the photo's you're trying to view/download in Raw?  I've had difficulty downloading Raw files, but have had no issues downloading JPEG files. Also, check a setting in your Canon, called communication.  From what I've read (I'm a Nikon D5100 guy myself), communication needs to be set to PTP, not normal.  I'm not sure how that will help if the pictures are already encoded?
    Well scratch what I've written.  I just googled the 60D and supposedly, JPEG and Raw are supposed to transfer through the SD card reader easily.  So, I'm clueless.  Sorry.......

  • When will Aperture provide RAW support for the Nikon D4s?

    Just got my D4s and can't work with the RAW files in Aperture 3 ... It says 'incompatible file format'...

    Wait and see, the currently available raw support is here.
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
    But even, when the raw supoort for your new camera will have been released, it will probably only be available for you, if you upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and at least Aperture 3.4.5. The most recent Digital Camera Raw Support releases have all been released for these versions only:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1734
    Give Apple a little time to do a decent job with the raw support. Your new camera is particularly challenging with the high ISO sensor and the excellent low light sensitivity (ISO 409,600). You will want that the raw support can deal with these new features properly. Last year we have seen quite a few threads with complaints about strange blueish or pink colors on raw images taken in low light for new Nikon and Canon cameras.

  • Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III RAW support PLEASE!

    Seriously, the camera was announced in August 2007. 6 months have passed and Apple has failed to provide a RAW support update for this camera!
    Why is this program targeted towards professionals if RAW support takes longer than a half a year?
    If this goes on much longer, I might have to make the dreaded switch to Lightroom. And i truly do not want to do that.
    Sorry, I am upset.

    Large Photographic software developers (of which I'd consider Apple, with its iPhoto and Aperture applications, to be part of the group) can get early access to preproduction copies these high end cameras so their RAW definitions can be nearly complete at camera rollout time.
    This is a process problem that Apple has (batching RAW definition creation and distribution for all cameras, mostly all those digicams, with OS updates). Apple needs to see this (time delay) is a problem for their Pro application users and set up a new process to to fast-track DSLR RAW definitions (creation/distribution).
    The E-3 has been waiting since its release in October as well.
    Word is that the new Nikon Defs are in the OS X 10.5.2 update (according to beta testers), so the E-3 and Cannon EOS 1Ds Mark III is probably in there too. Couple of weeks now...would be the expectation...no word on what you'd do if you're running 10.4.

  • Sony a700 dSLR, iPhoto RAW support

    I recently purchased a Sony a700 dSLR. jpeg files import into iPhoto without trouble. I want to try to use RAW files but they can not be imported. The camera supported list has the Sony a100 but not the a700. Is there a plan to support the a700 in the future on iPhoto or Aperture.

    Patrick
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    No one on this board has any idea what Apple's plans for the future are. It's a user-to-user forum.
    RAW support is a function of the OS, not either application.
    Let them know you want it though:
    iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback

  • When will aperture provide RAW support for Olympus EM-5

    I have the new Olympus OM-D EM-5 and I cannot get Aperture to read the RAW files....when will a software upgrade be availble?

    If the camera is not listed here Mac OS X v10.6: Supported digital camera RAW formats
    then Aperture does not support it as this time.
    When it will be supported no one here can say, we're all just users here like you. Apple never releases this information before hand.
    You can let them know you want the camera supported by going to Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback.

  • Canon 7D and aperture.

    I just got a Canon 7D and I am trying to import the pictures. I am using a CF card reader, and all of the pictures are raws. When I import the pictures they take close to 45 minutes to import then about 5 minutes to actually load each picture. I have been using a Canon XSI up until today, and that has been instant loading. Any ideas on what is wrong?

    That is very odd indeed. I have experience with both cameras and my 7D raw files import quick, quick, quick, even with my Best Buy branded (Dynex) card reader.
    Do you have another CF card to see if it's a card problem? Is all your software (Aperture and OSX) up to date?
    Are faces/places turned on or off? Automatically generate previews option on or off as as well?
    Good luck.

  • Canon 60D and HDV workflow

    Looking for suggestions on this workflow...any better way to do it? I shoot and edit primarily in HDV, with a little added footage from a Canon 60D, resulting in two different video formats. I don't want to mix them in one timeline, requiring frequent renders -- so my solution for now is to ingest the 60D as prores 422, edit it in a prores timeline, then send to Compressor and downconvert to HDV 60i, which I can then bring into my main HDV project and easily mix. I have been happy editing in HDV despite frequent urgings in this forum to ingest as prores. So this is working but I'm still wondering is this the best route for combining these two formats. BTW 60D video looks good, except when you move the camera, so best shot locked down. Better than FX7 in low light. Nice machine, unobtrusive, good for candids.

    Unless very little of the media is from the 60D and/or you have to output back to tape you're better off doing it the other way around. Gets you out of the whole world of conforming an MPEG codec, which is very weak codec for compositing.

  • Samsung GX-10 and Pentax K10D RAW support?

    I recently bought a Samsung GX-10 thinking it was essentially the same camera as the Pentax K10D (which is it in hardware). However, it appears that the RAW images cannot be read in Aperture or iPhoto, even thought the K10D is listed as supported. The RAW files are .DNG which I thought was some kind of standard. To make matters worse, Samsung doesn't even provide any of it's own Mac software, so I currently have no way to read its RAW files at all. Doesn't anyone know if/when Apple will add support for the GX-10?
    Thanks in advance.

    yeah,, I know about raw data , and yes, wrong or not, the rendition of gx-10 pictures are very "bad"  compared with other softwares and with my eyes, and I think that you can understand when i said "bad" no?, there aren't a wrong or correct in raw color but the people speaks about the wrong o correct colors all the time, i think that you understand when speak about  bad colors, a bad WB , etc.
    I know that i can make my own profile but is not easy, to generate a good profile I need a  Macbeth ColorChecker or something like that for example and precise sources of light (like a tungsten) and taking account about that samsung cameras are "clones" of the pentax ones and that samsung shoots in DNG format (and not a propietary raw format)  seems easy solve the problem about color interpretation of GX-10. With time I will buy a color-checker and try, but would be great a correct interpretaion of the own samsung colors
    PD2: When i know about samsung "adobe-DNG" capacity, i didn't expect have problems with adobe soft and color intrepretation or something like that.
    PD: Sorry , I don't speak english  well, and so I can't express me very well , only basics

  • Compatibility issue with Nikon's D700 and Aperture downloading RAW files.

    Need a little help with this one - purchased a NIKON D700 (today) and tried to download RAW files into Aperture - got a bad message - unsupported image format - (shows on a reddish background)
    I worked on the problem for about 4 hours, both with the software and the camera, but to no avail... upon inital download you see a small image but the message occurs when the image is clicked on.
    Thank you in advance for any comment or idea you might have.... occurring

    You will have to wait until Apple updates the MacOS to recognize the D700 in its RAW profile. It's not listed yet:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475
    You'll have to shoot JPEG or use Nikon's software until Apple gets around to it. Maybe try Lightroom.

  • 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.
