Canon Powershot G2 RAW import

This camera is a bit old but if you want to import images in RAW format you can try this hack. Hopefully Apple will have official support soon.
I started with the settings for the already-supported G3. Feel free to modify the values if you've got any idea what they're for...

I tried making the edits to the plist file as suggested in this topic, and can confirm that these do allow RAW files from the Canon G2 camera to be imported into Aperture. However, I am finding that the resulting default conversion is a fair bit darker than what Adobe CS RAW plug in does. Colors are reasonably accurate, but quite a bit darker. I realize that I could make further adjustments to lighten up the shadow areas, but this will likely add more noise in the shadows than would result if the RAW conversion were to be a bit brighter up front.
Does anyone have ANY idea what all the numbers in the plist represent? And which ones could be tweeked to get a better conversion that preserves more of the shadow details?

IPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW Format

Hi,
It seems iPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW file format. Can this be added to be supported!?
Does anyone know how to report this to Apple and request this as a feature enhancement?

Also note,
Powershot S40 CRW's I'd archived within Aperture rendered almost immediately (as did .DNG's based on them). But the RAW adjustment fine tuning did not appear in the Inspector/HUD.
(My assumption on the above is that Aperture initially identified them as non-RAW vs. unsupported, and therefore set a flag somewhere saying that RAW adjustments were not valid).
There is another thread on this for the Nikon D80, so I followed its solution ....
Export the masters, delete masters, re-import the masters!
All works well!

Canon Powershot S100 RAW files with Elements 9

I have Photoshop Elements 9 and am trying to display and work with my RAW files that I've taken with my Canon Powershot S100 but it doesn't want to read the files... I've tried the lateset update from Adobe but that doesn't seem to work either... any ideas?

Use the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your RAW files to DNG, and open the DNG files in PSE9:

Canon Powershot G16 RAW files and CS5

I want to be able to work with Canon RAW files shot on my G16 but CS5 doesn't seem to support this. Is there a plug in? or do I need to purchase new/latest software? I really don't want to if I can help it - I have a budget and I'm quite happy with everything else about CS5.
Nick

Photoshop uses an Adobe plugin called Camera Raw to read Raw files. Camera Raw must be updated every time a new camera comes on to the market and not all versions of Camera Raw are compatible with all versions of Photoshop.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
The Canon Powershot G16 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 8.2 which is only compatible with CS6 and later.
To open Raw files from the G16 in Photoshop, your choices are to upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud.
Alternatively, you can download the free DNG converter from Adobe, convert all G16 Raw files to DNGs then open and edit the DNGs in CS5

Canon 5D MII raw import problems in LR3

My installation of LR3 will not import .CR2 raw files from the Canon 5D MII. My LR2 imports fine. What am I missing?

Are you importing them from a card reader, camera via cable, or from the hard drive?
If one of the first two, just try copying them to the hard drive and seeing if they'll import that way. If they do, it's a clue as to why.

Canon Mark 3 Raw Import

With my new MacBook Air I can't see the Raw files from my Canon Mark 3 camera. Don't see it also in my Photoshop Bridge. I have all the new updates. Does anyone have a solution?

Go into preferences, select the Presets tab. Hit "Reset all Default Develop Settings". You probably by accident set a default Develop for the 7D. Also check that you don't have a preset selected in the import dialog.

Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS3 do not recognise Canon PowerShot S90 raw files

My husband has lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS3 but they don't recognise CanonPowershot S90 camera raw files. I've tried searching for the problem on internet but can't find anything that helps. Adobe's DNG converter doesn't work either. I've tried different versions of the DNG converter to no avail. Buying a new Adobe product is out of the question.
Another problem is that his e-mail address has been changed so that he can't login to his Adobe account. We used to be able to contact Adobe Netherlands by phone or email but that option isn't available anymore.
Can anyone help please?

Go to here:
Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6
or here:
Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6
for the final versions of LR3. Download and install the software. You do not need to remove your present installation first, LR will install over it and fix any faults that now exist.
Your husband can log onto his Adobe account with the old email address and when in the account can edit the address to the new one.

Canon Powershot G1X RAW conversion

Altthough the G1X is not yet included in the Beta camera database, will it be included in the final Lightroom 4 release?

Unfortunately Adobe can't answer that now (by policy). Just have to wait and see.

Canon Powershot SX1

Hi!
I'd like to know if the Canon Powershot SX1 RAW format will be supported in ACR 5.4. At the moment, the SX1 is not listed among the supported cameras (Camera Raw 5.4 plug-in release candidate).
I'd pretty much like the update to support the SX1 because I hate using Canon's software for RAW conversion (not flexible, slow, etc.).
Cheers,
Aline

PSE11: How to import Raw files from Canon Powershot SX60 HS Bridge Camera? [was: Dear Sir,]

I have just purchased a Canon Powershot SX60 HS Bridge Camera. I have Photoshop Elements 11 and I cannot import Raw files. How do I download the latest version of Camera Raw into Elements 11?
T.W. Gasby

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
With Elements 11 you cannot.
The SX60 HS was first supported in Camera Raw 8.7 which is only compatible with Elements 13 and later.
Options:
Pay to upgrade to Elements 13
Free option: download the Adobe DNG converter, convert all SX60 HS Raw files to DNG format then edit the DNGs in Elements 11

Can't import RAW files from Canon Powershot S50.

iPhoto6 will not import RAW files from my Canon Powershot S50. It says the files are "unreadable". Image capture will import to the desktop, but neither iPhoto nor Photoshop Elements can open the file. I checked and the S50 is supposed to be compatible with OSX and RAW files.
SFR

I agree but I was responding to someone with an S50. That's hardly an "advanced amateur" camera. iPhoto has some rather neat catalog features but the editing is purely for the snapshooter. Heck, I suspect that redeye removal is the most popular feature and, as far as I'm concerned, if you have redeye to begin with, you're a snapshooter.
I'm an extremely advanced amateur with my film setup but, because of cost, I'm still a snapshooter with my digital camera. My film setup is two Nikon N80s with a top-of-the-line Nikon flash head that I use only with a Stroboframe bracket. The bracket and the necessary extension cord cost me nearly $200! My lenses are pure Nikon, including a single focal length f/1.8, 85 mm. portrait lens.
I consider 10 MP to be the bare minimum for "advanced amateur" shooting and both Canon and Nikon have recently introduced 10MP SLRs in the $1000 range. However, I'm waiting for the next advance - an SLR without the reflex mechanism - interchangeable lenses and an FP shutter but no mirror! Let's face it, the reflex mechanism adds cost but a digital screen gives the same view and even better (you can see the color balance) and screens are now available that can be viewed in bright sunlight.
I'm also hoping for one thing that will probably never happen - physically larger CCDs so that I can get the same focus control (small depth of field) that I can get with my film camera.

Is the RAW format of Canon PowerShot G7X possibile in Lightroom ver. 5.7?

I use Lightroom 5 on my Acer PC. I have just bought a new camera, Canon PowerShot G7X, with Raw format possibility. I have also upgraded my Lightroom 5 to version 5.7. Still the application will not accept the RAW format pictures taken with this camera. Do I do something wrong, or does the latest version (5.7) not include the RAW format of Canon PowerShot G7X?

Hi Jan,
Yes your PowerShot G7 X is supported with LR 5.7. Would suggest you to make sure your Lr is up-to-date(From Help>Updates).
In case you still get that issue, try the below suggestions and check.
Restore Lr preferences. Recover catalog, images after resetting preferences
Create new Lr catalog, import G7 X raw files and then check.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks

Importing photos from Canon PowerShot A710

I'm using iPhoto for the first time and can't import the pictures on my Canon PowerShot A710 digital camera. Is this camera incompatible with iPhoto?

Are you shooting JPEG? If so every camera is supported
are you shooting RAW - if so RAW is unique to each camera and then only these cameras are currently supported - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475

Canon Powershot S95 video und raw compatibility

I'm considering to buy a Canon PowerShot S95 camera. Does anyone already have experiences how well this camera works together with the iPad and the camera connection kit? Will the photo app display the S95's RAW files? And will the iPad play back 720p videos from this camera when transferred with the camera connection kit (not via iTunes sync)?

I have the S90 (and two Panasonic MFT-cameras) and there are no problems to import the RAW-files to my iPad using the Camera Connection Kit.
I always do that when I travel and I use Lightroom to transfer them to my iMac at home and that too works fine.
All in all I don´t need to bring my MacBook to backup my pictures from my SD-card anymore. iPad takes care of that.
