Canon EOS 350D .CR2 pics still 'unsupported image format'?

I was releaved to see updates in Mac OS X (10.4.8) and Aperture 1.5 the other week, hoping it would solve my problem, being able to finally work with my RAW files (.cr2) from the Canon EOS 350D (yes, being in Europe these days).
I followed the posts on the forum throughout the summer, which recommended waiting for the next OS X update (which should support the camera in that raw definition file) and I didn't want to use the workaround, which clearly had problems with the colors on the pics.
After all the updates the other week, nothing has changed on my MBP. Still the 'Unsupported Image Format' on my RAW files. On the other hand, I don't see any posts on problems with the 350D camera anymore as well (only on CR2 files in general).
Am I missing something really basic here (tried rebuild library)? Or, have all the CR2 formats gone down the drain on Aperture 1.5?
Any help is appreciated, as I have already looked into Adobe Lightroom Beta and although I don't want to switch, the files seem to work there...

Yes, the import thumbnail is as you describe, the low res. JPG that is embedded in the RAW wrapper.
10.4.8 needs to be installed prior to Aperture 1.5 .... from a functionality point of view. I am not aware of a dependence that says AP 1.5 has to be uninstalled before a 10.4.8 upgrade or any such, not that AP 1.5 should need re-installing after a 10.4.8 upgrade .... assuming it was working correctly beforehand.
But to this last point, since you have an issue which may be related to AP or OS X, it is likely worthwhile updating both and in order.
Final thought. do you import directly from the CF card / camera vs. using an intermediary tool such as ImageBrowser or DP Professional? I am wondering if Aperture is very OCD aboout the image format wrapper and chokes at the least excuse that other apps. and tools ignore.

After loading Lion I cannot open some pictures. I get Unsupported Image Format. It tells me picture was taken with Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens

After loading Lion I cannot open open some pictures in Aperture. I get Unsupported Image Format, all files even the ones I can open are .JPG. Also it tells me picture was made using Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens.

You mention that 'most' of your files are DNG. Try
running the effected files through Adobe DNG
converter again and then import your reprocessed
files to Aperture and see if the problem persists.
I had a problem with a batch of D2x files converted
to DNG which had been metadata tagged by
PhotoMechanic (the evil app).
B.T.W. You mention that you had been using Bridge.
Are you getting any of the embedded XMP metadata
coming into Aperture during the import process?
Already tried that multiple times...no luck. I'm wondering though if it might be related to metadata as you suggest. I'm still trying different things to see what happens.
I was able to alleviate the problem on one set of images by painstakingly searching my external drive for the oldest backups I could find - CR2 files from before DNG conversion. I then ran those through DNG Converter and tried importing them again (this time, I embedded NO thumbnail, but I'm not sure if that made the difference - I think it was more likely a fluke in the original conversion that caused the problem). This time, it worked.
Now, the big problem is that I still have a couple hundred images for which I can't seem to locate the original CR2 files. I don't typically keep them after conversion, as I don't have the space for both.

DNG (created from EOS 350D) sometimes unsupported image format...

I've imported some DNG files created from EOS 350D .CR2 files (Compressed, preserve RAW image, JPG preview full size) and I keep getting unsuported image format. Now .DNG files without fill size jpeg preview do show well (these where also created with DNG Converter 3.1).
This jpg preview size shouldn't matter I hoped. I switched to a .dng based workflow since August, all my latest photo's can't be handled with Aperture....

Thanks for the info!
I hadn't checked out the specific 350D support, since I though (hoped) that once using .dng (without the embedded original .cr2 file), it was a pure .dng thingy, in that sence that it doesn't even have anything remotely to do with the original .cr2 raw file anymore, since that's just the reason why I use .dng.... I guess the .dng implementation in 10.4.3 is not done completely as it should then.
Anway, I'm thriled I can use the compare, select, loupe (simple but well implemented!) in Aperture, which rocks. (There are some gems in Aperture for sure, next to th numerous odities.
Thanks again!

Canon 7D, .CR2 and the miserable RED "Unsupported Image Format" screen

I have seen a lot of posts on this:
First, yes, all of my software is up to date ~ running Mac OS X SL 10.6.2 and Aperture 2.1.4
I just got the 7D ~ my system is set up to automatically open Aperture when card reader and/or camera is plugged in.
I have been shooting in Camera Raw, not sCR2, not mCR2, just .CR2 and large JPG simultaneously.
Obviously, the JPG imports fine, but that dastardly "Unsupported Image Format" red screen pops up.
I can't seem to find the file to open and see if it works in iPhoto ~ even when I am in iPhoto and try to show my Aperture library, it is not there.
So, the big question is this: how do I download .CR2, find them to then convert them (and what am I converting them to?) and import those converted files into Aperture?
I know, I know a lot of questions...but am appreciative of any help someone is willing to throw my way.
Thanks

I mount the drive to see it in the finder only.
I shoot both RAW & Jpeg the same time.
I explore the Jpeg thumbnails, skipping over the raw files which takes a little longer to load.
One main advantage doing both/
Now anyone can load the Jpegs to view, otherwise they may not have viewer or software to see RAW files.
For safety, I load the whole card file to the desktop.
From here, I pre-sort the images to a folder within.
Otherwise it's back & forth reloading the whole card file into Aperture picking out a few, and doing the process 10 - 20 more times for other images not related.
Or making mistakes along the way. A simple slip of the wrist, or happy mouse.
Now any software you chose, It can load from saved file on desktop.
**The card anytime it's put back in camera gets reformatted.
Or set aside for safe keeping until the process is complete in case of power failure and or crash.
Reformatting the card is a must in the camera vs just deleted at computer.
This might be the X crisis you see of old data mixed in.
Other Issues/
By default for years, compact flash cards & reader.
On the Canon 1DsMkII, it has two slots, CF & SD.
Along comes SDHC, and off to do wedding, get back to computer to load from reader and the computer says, we have no clue.
Card readers are specific to SDHC.
I had a thumb drive reader for SDHC but never gave it a thought there was any difference.
Prior/
The camera smarter, picked the SD slot to record to if pulling & replacing CF.
So I was shocked not finding the images on CF at first.

Canon EOS 6D - Unsupported Image Format

Hi,
when I import RAW pictures from my Canon EOS 6D to the library, Aperture shows me this message: "Unsupported Image Format".
I updated Aperture to the last available version (3.4.3 - Digital Camera Raw 4.00 - Build 658.1) but nothing changes.
Any ideas?
Thank's!
Luigi

Ok, I need Digital Camera RAW 4.03

Unsupported Image Format? CR2 from Canon 20d

ok, so my jpg's import fine. my problem is with my CR2 Raw pictures from my Canon 20d. I tried to import some. They import, all the metadata info is there, but there is no thumbnail in aperture and in the top viewer it says unsupported image format. Has anyone had this problem? After import why are the CR2 thumbnails missing and why do the viewers say Unsupported Image Format? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

Since I can't open the problem RAW files in Preview or import them into iPhoto, but can open them in ACR/Bridge or DPP, I'm fairly certain this has something to do with the underlying RAW support at the OS-level in Tiger -- and not just an Aperture issue.
I have had no problem with some older RAW files captured using my 20D. I think I may have upgraded the 20D's firmware since those images were shot -- could it be an incompatibility brought on by that?!?!

1.1: stacking RAW images from Canon EOS 350D at import

I'm noticing a strange problem with Aperture 1.1 and my Canon EOS 350D. If I shoot only RAW images and try to import, Aperture thinks that the timestamp of every image is the time at which the camera was connected. Obviously, this breaks the possibility of stacking before import. If I shoot JPEG, there's no problem, and using the Auto-Stack HUD after importing RAW images works correctly too.
Anyone else seen this?
Thanks,
Fraser

I wasn't using Aperture before 1.1, but I reinstalled from my DVD on a supported machine and the bug does occur.
Strangely, if you open Image Capture before opening Aperture, everything works as advertised. It's only if you have Aperture set as the automatic application to open when a camera's connected.
For any Apple people that might be reading, I've reported this as Radar bug #4515776

Can't Find Or Acces My RAW Files ( Canon EOS 350D

I'm new to SLR Cameras.. I have a Canon EOS 350D So y decided to shoot in RAW. But i have problems and question. If you just go to the camera directory can you see the RAW images? And i cannot find my RAW files that i shot..in my camera i can see them but in Bridge CS3 and PS CS3 nothing...i've already downloaded the update Camera RAW 4. But Nothing So how to work with RAW.. Pls Help me..because i need to shoot again tommorrow so i'm short on time..
Raizen Albertsz,

I found some one with almost the same problem so i am going to change his words a little bit so that you can understand my problem.
I'd taken a few shots here and there this week in RAW + Large format, but wasn't able to find the RAW files. OK, I thought perhaps I was mistaken and didn't have the settings correct & didn't really take any RAW shots.
So I reformatted the 4GB Scandisk CF card (via the camera) and took more shots, all in RAW + Large. Going thru the camera display with Info turned on, I can verify that each one was indeed on RAW + Large. But I still can't find them.
I'm using a cable to connect my EOS Rebel XT (EOS 350D) to transfer the files to a selected folder on my pc. Opening that folder in Windows (I have Win XP)there are only the the JPGs in it. If i open Adobe Bridge CS3 or PS CS3 i would find only the JPGs. Where are my RAW .CR2 files going? I was under the impression they would be in the same folder as the JPG images, with same file number. So that i can see like a thumbnail or something.
I've downloaded the Camera RAW 4.4.1. Upgrade. I did what is written
To install with Adobe Creative Suite 3 or Photoshop CS3:
1. Exit Photoshop CS3.
2. Open My Computer.
3. Double-click Local Disk (C:).
4. Navigate to: (Please read directory carefully)
Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats
5. Move the existing Camera Raw.8bi plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw.8bi, from the download into the same folder as in step 4.
7. Launch Photoshop CS3 or Adobe Bridge.
Note: If generic camera thumbnails appear in Adobe Bridge, follow these steps:
1. Check to make sure the plug-in was installed in the correct directory in step 4 above.
2. Start Bridge.
3. Choose Tools > Cache > Purge Central Cache.
but still nothing. So what else could i do?
Raizen Albertsz,

My RAW files suddenly says "Unsupported Image Format" and can't import new pics

Hi all,
A week ago I imported the latest bunch of RAW-images from my Canon EOS 30D (.CR2-files) and all was working great. I did take some of the pics and exported them to an e-mail and sent them off to a friend. Then after rearranging my home office I was trying to import some pics from my iPhone 4 - won't work!
And the RAW-images are not supported any longer!...??
Facts:
- iMac 2,66MHz Core 2 Duo/4GB/OS 10.8.1
- Aperture 3.3.2
- Aperture Library located on a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+
Have searched for a solution without finding anything that works...
Have tried to:
- repair permissions
- examine database
- tossed com.apple.Aperture.plist to the trash
- am right now trying to rebuilding database as a last resort
Anyone have a good idea as I'm very reluctant to belive that rebuildning will work?
BR,
Pete

Thanks for your reply!
I've looked into it a bit.
The ReadyNAS uses Linux Ext3/Ext4 file system.
Found that my rights to Aperture Library has been downgraded to "Read only" even though I'm the admin...
Won't take changes either... Get a message stating that I don't have the privilage to change file rights...!!
I've just started a copy session of the 125 GB large Library to the internal HDD... It seems like a good idea to have it there - even though it's eating massive amounts of disk surface! Almost 20%...
I'm calling Netgear tomorrow - how the heck can may rights be changed, just like that???
Funny thing it's been working fine for a pretty long time, it's after Mointain Lion it has started to acting up.
I did have similar problems the day after upgrading to ML but after a firmware upgrade of the ReadyNAS it worked like a charm again - until yesterday...
Hope that I'm allowed to change the rights when it's been copied to the internal disk... Been typing and researching file system type etc for at least 15 mins now and it's still "preparing to copy"
Here's what I found in Console, the line called "2012-09-13 01:13:16,238" gave it away for sure (while trying to import new pictures).

Intermittent "Unsupported image format" message with either CR2 or DNG

I am seeing "Unsupported image format" messages once files created by a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark iii (+stored in Canon's CR2 file format or when the same file is converted to Adobe's DNG file format+) have been imported into Aperture.
Some files will import and be viewable. However, most of the time the files are not viewable. This occurs even after updating Aperture to 1.5.6.
Is anyone else seeing problems with CR2 or DNG files created by Canon EOS 1Ds Mark iii?
Has anyone see a solution?

I think Support is confused with the Canon camera models.
10.5.1 supports 1D Mk III, but only 1Ds Mk II.
(http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306835

I don't believe that 10.4.11 supports anything that 10.5.1 doesn't support. In fact, the docs at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306297 say "Adds RAW image decoding support for the following cameras: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50, Leica V-Lux 1, Olympus E-400, Olympus EVOLT E410, Olympus EVOLT E510, Canon EOS 40D" (the 1D Mk III came in the 10.4.10 update.)

Unsupported Image Format when inporting from my new Canon 400D (KISS X) CAM

Could someone please tell me why Apeture is giving me the Unsupported Image Format notice when trying to view and import Raw images from my new Canon 400D camera? I can view the photos on my Canon software. Is it possible that just becase the file is 10.1 MP on my new cam instead of the 8mp that my rebel XT (350D) was that Apeture can not use the format? If in fact this is the case, what can i do to get the 300 plus photos that I just shot at a paid photo shoot into Apertue and still be able to work with them raw?
I would be grateful for any help I can get.
Thank you.

Two problems with this workflow:
1) A 16 bit TIFF file is 52 megabytes. Ouch. Reading them bogs down my little MacBook like you wouldn't believe. I may have to work with JPEG or, god forbid, use Photoshop until Apple's devs can get support for the XTi
2) Aperture seems unable to figure out the colour balance of the TIFF files. I added a bit of saturation and colour correction (working in the Adobe RGB space) in Canon DPP, but Aperture seems to totally screw up on these files. http://images.dasmegabyte.org/wine_tour/large-37.html almost no detail at all in those bins (plenty in the RAW) and I had to boost the gamma on the web gallery by 1.2x so they didn't look fire engine red.

10.5.2; Canon 1DsM3 Raw Files = "Unsupported Image Format" in Aperture

Just did the update and pointed Aperture to a folder of Canon 1Ds Mark III raw files (standard raw files, no sRaw or anything like that). Thumbnail previews are grey and Viewer says, "Unsupported Image Format".
Tried rebooting and verifying/fixing permissions. No help. No thumbnails, no images in Aperture.
Canon 1Ds Mark III raw files do show fine in the finder and in Quick Look.

I have the same exact issue.
I do get the same error with 1Ds MIII raws.
Also the G9 raws are not working.
Finally after 3 months it's still not working
I could imagine that there is the need to edit some property file (like I have read before in the forum somewere) to add the new cameras to the list of supported cameras.
Are the D3, D300 raws working?

Aperture 2 Raw Conversion and Canon EOS 350D? Getting slightly worse?

Hi,
I have compared a few images I shot with my Canon EOS 350d using the RAW converter in version 1.1 and version 2.0. These pictures showed flowers with special lighting conditions (high contrast, with selective sunlight). Then I've looked at some other pictures.
* 1.1 shows better distribution of light. In 2.0 a wall was more evenly lighted, where 1.1 showed that there are different different levels of light.
* in 2.0 one often has to apply 'recover hightlights', where this was not necessary in 1.1. Bright areas on flowers are much brighter in 2.0.
* in 2.0 dark areas are quite a bit brighter
* in 2.0 some pixel-size artifacts were introduced. For example on some leaf, darker green pixels appeared that were not there in 1.1
For the images I was looking at (especially when 'played' with light), the new raw converter of Aperture 2.0 seems to be a step backwards.
What are others' experiences?
Regards,
Rainer Joswig

I wonder if the slowness is related to the rendering of the canon raw files.
As an experiment, you might try exporting the raw photos and creating a new separate library with them to see if aperture runs just as slow.
Even if you find the nonraw library runs more smoothly, I am not really suggesting you adopt this as part of your workflow. It just might be good to know if the format is a factor or if something else is causing the laggardly performance.

CR2 as "Unsupported Image Format" on Aperture 2.1.2?

I just installed aperture on OS 10.5.5 and immediately installed the available update via Software Update. Then, I imported a day's worth of shooting from my EOS 1D Mark iii (one of the models listed on Aperture's Supported Raw Formats webpage - http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html). The .jpegs display fine but my CR2 images only appear as preview thumbnails - when I click on the preview a red box appears with the text: "Unsupported Image Format." I'm a bit incredulous that Apple would fail to support this enormously popular image format - say it ain't so.

Excellent information that confirms my experience. It has only happened to me in the midst of an editing session, and has always been corrected by a restart of the application.
I don't know if it answers Alexandra's original question.
I have also found that Aperture has gotten progressively slower over the last few months, perhaps a function of a growing managed library?? It's to the point where if I edit to fast, I'll start getting beachballs, and have even had the app quit -or go to the red screen/unsupported file type message.
I don't have the latest machine, but it is a fast one, (Mac Pro Quad 3.0 Ghz 11 gb ram and the nVidia 8800 GT graphics card driving 2 23" Cinema Displays) My startup drive is a 750GB Seagate Barracuda partitioned 250/500 with everything but the Aperture library on the 250 partition (100 gb free space left) and only the Aperture library on the 500 partition (aprox 200 GB free). (there are also 3 more 750 gb drives in the machine for Time Machine & other stuff.
This machine should be really fast (it once was) so I may be doing something wrong, but can't figure what is wrong.
Is anyone aware of an article on speeding up aperture? My previews are limited to the default (2500 x2500 aprox) yet my activity window always seems to have a backup of previews to be built once I'm going in an edit session.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Canon EOS 350D .CR2 pics still 'unsupported image format'?
