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.

Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and Aperture 2?

I was wondering if anyone using a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III can confirm if they're able to shoot tethered using Aperture 2? Though it's listed under the RAW support page, this model of camera is not supported in the knowledge base article called: Tips on tethered shooting.
I tried the demo and though it registered my camera, it wouldn't allow me to capture. Not sure if it's a limitation of the demo, or ignorance on my part. If you know for certain one way or another, please share.
Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge the tethered shooting does not work with any of the newer Canon DSLRs. A workaround that may be good for you is the Aperture hot folder script that I used with Aperture 1.5. If you can't find t just hit the thread back.

SRaw support for Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III

I just shot some images in sRaw and was suprised to find the "unsupported image format" message...
I'm using Ap2, 10.5.2 and the latest graphics libraries...
Is this not supported or am I experiencing a unique problem?
I realize the convert to DNG is a workaround - but I'd rather not...

When the 1D Mark III came out (first with sRaw), I saw someone at dpreview (a sports photographer) saying that for the sort of work he did, the resolution wasn't important, but that it would be valuable to be able to send a smaller file wirelessly (using the WFT-1 or whatever it is called) to his editor. The smaller file size would speed up transfers.
On a 1Ds Mark III, the 5MP sRaw seems more useful to me, as it is more than enough for casual shooting. Though, why you would bring a 1DsIII for casual shooting is beyond me.

O.T. New Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III - 21 megapixel full frame slr

Rumoured body price on Amazon $8000
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0708/07082009canoneos1dsmarkiii.asp

That was apparently the price Amazon showed before Canon presumably got them to pull the listing - it seems they jumped the gun on publicising the new camera.
U.S. customers shouldn't complain as, on current form, it'll probably be nearer £8000 in the U.K. !

Nutzt Lightroom die Korrekturdaten für Vignettierung und Aberration der Canon EOS 5D Mark III?

Hallo,
in der Canon EOS 5D Mark III, und auch weiteren Kameras, kann man ja direkt die Objektivkorrektur für Vignettierung und Aberration aktivieren, so dass diese beim RAW-Bild hinterlegt sind.
Wisst ihr zufällig ob Lightroom diese Daten auch verwendet und verarbeitet?
Meinen Versuchen zufolge scheinen diese Daten nicht verwendet zu werden.
Hintergrund ist dass die Korrekturdaten von Canon natürlich schneller zur Verfügung stehen als von Lightroom bzw. auch vollständiger, da u. a. keine Korrekturdaten von meinem Objektiv mit 2x III Extender zur Verfügung stehen, Canon diese jedoch schon hat.
Vielen Dank!

Ich habe sie seit einiger Zeit, bin mit dem Rauschverhalten sehr glücklich und man kann sogar die H-Einstellung 3200 gut verwenden, wenn man exakt belichtet und nachher noch einen Rauschfilter verwendet bzw RAW fotografiert. Allerdings kenne ich die 1d Mk II selbst in der Praxis nicht und habe keinen vergleich, die Kollegen sind eigentlich auch mit deren Rauschverhalten ganz zufrieden. Allerdings haben immer mehr 1D-Nutzer zusätzlich noch eine 5D. Nur ist die 5D im Vergleich seeeeehr gemäääääähhchchlichh... mit den 3B/s. Wenn dich das nicht stört... Auch den Autofokus finde ich im Vergleich zu 20D , die ich auch noch habe, noch zuverlässiger, insbesondere mit dem Sigma 2,8/120-300. Das machte bei der 20D gelegentlich Probleme, mit der 5D eigentlich gar nicht mehr.
Andererseits hat ein Fotokollege, dem ich sein 2,8/300 von Canon abkaufen wollte, einen kleinen Test durchgeführt. Er wollte sehen, wie viel besser meine 5D gegen seine 1DmkII ist (er ist auch Agenturfotograf). Er hatte bei ISO 100/400 ein paar Vergleichsbilder gemacht. Letzlich kam er zum Ergebnis, dass eine 5D keinen richtigen Qualitätssprung darstellt - er hat sich jetzt eine 1Ds MkII mit 16 MP gekauft und ist super zufrieden. Wobei die 5D bei hohen ISO laut ColorFoto besser als die 1Ds sein soll. Einen echten vergleich konnte ich selbst zur 1Ds mit der 5D nicht machen.
Andererseits war aus meiner 5D das Sigma 120-300 bei 300 mm nicht sichtbar schlechter als das Canon und "nur" wegen dem IS wollte ich das Geld auch nicht ausgeben und Zoomen ist manchemal saupraktisch... nur sind die 300 mm bei Sigma etwas weniger als bei Canon - liegt wohl an der Toleranz, ebenso, wie sie 2,8 da nicht wirklich 2,8 dondern eher 3,2 oder 3,5.
Wie lautete nochmal die Frage??
;o)

Hi WC!
Thanks for posting on the forum.
It is very likely that the issue is with the cards you have tried and not the camera.
You mentioned that you were going to try a faster card.
Were you able to do so yet?
If so, how did the faster card perform?
Do you experience the same issue when recording to a high-speed CF card instead of an SD card?

Canon EOS 5d Mark III

I bought yesterday the Canon EOS 5D Mark III, when can I get the Camera RAW 6.7 for Lightroom 4.0?

Several abusive replies have been deleted from this discussion. Personal attacks on other users will not be tolerated.
Support for the 5D MklII is included in LR4.1, and how that works (including sharpening) is of course a perfectly-valid point of discussion. Whether the camera itself is sharp or not isn't anything to do with Adobe software, and everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I know people who think it's fine, and others who've taken their bodies apart to remove the OLPF. Both are convinced about what they see, and they'd argue about it all night.
If you put three photographers in a room you get four opinions on which camera to use, but let's keep things polite.

1ds mark III raw files

Hi folks,
I use to work with Canons 1Ds Mark III raw files (all about 21MP or more).
Using Quick Preview mode everything runs fine in terms of speed.
But as soon as adjustment mode is used it takes up to 10secs to laod the raw files. (Loading...)
Comparing this to the latest DPP Version or Capture One 4.1 this seems to be an incredible long time as the other apps take 2 to 3 secs to show the raw file.
What's going on here? I suppose this to be a raw decoding issue rather than a hardware issue???
Anyone else similar experiences ?
kind regards Frank

i work the same files on my G5 and usually wait a few seconds to load ... soon i will upgrade to a new MacPro, but this old beast has been great for me, and i am not sure how to break it to her that i want to "trade" her in for a newer model ...
i've also heard the the ati is better .. there has been talk of it here on this board, also check out barefeats.com to see what tests they have done ...

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Using a 70-300mm Lens without a flash?

I just recently purchased a Canon EOS 5D Mark III and would like to know what you would recommend as a good setting to take photos of someone bowling at a center with the camera using a Canon 70-300mm Lens without a flash? Thanks in advance!

Yes the black one since that is the one I have at this time and it seems to work! Why wouldn't I want to use this one?

Is the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II compatible with iPad Connection Kit

Hi All,
First post in the forum. I was wondering if the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II is compatible with the iPad connection kit via USB, as it uses CompactFlash not SD.
Thanks
Dill

Lightworksuk-
I would think so. My 5D Mark II and three other Canon cameras are compatible.
Some people have received an error message that their camera drew too much current from the USB adapter. In those cameras, there was usually a setting option to charge their batteries from the USB cable. By turning that option to NOT charge, the problem went away.
There are several CF to USB adapters on the market. I have a couple that work with the Camera Connection Kit's USB adapter, but others that draw too much current. For those, as well as cameras that draw too much current, use of a powered USB hub may solve the problem.

Best External Stereo Microphone for the Canon EOS D5 Mark iii

I am looking to purchase an external stereo microphone for my Canon EOS 5D Mark iii camera. Will the Canon External Stereo Microphone, DM 100, work on the Canon EOS D5 Mark iii? If not, do you have recommendation for an external stereo microphone?
Thank you.
Regards,
Zigmund

I don't know if it is the best, but I use one of these on my 5D III.

Recognize Canon EOS 7D Mark II RAW Files in PS CS5 on Windows

I'm trying to get a RAW files from a Canon EOS 7D Mark II recognized by PS CS5. I'm running a Windows 8.1 desktop.
That camera format is supported by ACR 8.7.1 update. But that appears to be only backwards compatible with PS CS6.
Is there any recourse other than upgrading Photoshop? Thanks.

Yes. Download the DNG Converter free from Adobe: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1 in order to convert the Canon raws to dng format which can then be read in Adobe Camera Raw.
Here's how to use it: Camera Raw: How to use Adobe DNG Converter - YouTube

•Canon EOS 5D Mark II Raw Files Won't Open?

I use PE 11 and normally shoot with Nikon cameras. I recently used a friend's Canon #EOS 5D Mark II and the Canon Raw files will not open. I found a Camera Raw plug-in (5.2) that addresses this but am concerned this plug-in will override the camera raw plug-in already installed to read my Nikon files. Is this a valid concern?

Thanks for your response. What I think the problem was had to do with a couple of corrupted files. The jpg versions displayed correctly but the raw files did nothing when they were selected. I deleted 4 files that would not display and then randomly selected another which did. All the remainder of 46 files display in PE. I might have a bad CF card on my hands even though it is new. I’ll send it to Lexar for examination.
Good to know the question forum works. Thanks.

Using PS CS5. Cannot open Raw files with new Canon EOS 5D Mark III. Works fine with Mark II. Any answers?

Current camera raw is 6.6.

Support for the 5D Mark III was added in ACR 6.7:
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
