CS 4 and DNG Converter

Hi,
1) I'm trying to get my CS 4 work with DNG Converter but it seems hopeless. I've downloaded the ARC 5.7 and DNG Converter from the site but when I try to import a raw file via Bridge using the "Convert to DNG" function, it fails only saying "Convertion to DNG failed". I'm using Mac. The Photoshop CS 4 is a part of a "Master Collection"
2) I've recently switched to Mac and would like to use my Elements 9 disc I bought for Windows about 6 months ago. Is it possible to find Elements 9 on the site? I've tried...and if I would find it, can I download a Mac version using my licence key?
Thank you someone out there / Fredrik

Freddy71 I would recommend posting your inquiry to the Camera RAW forum.

Camera Raw and DNG Converter 4.4 Now Available

Details here: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2008/03/lightroom_14_and_camera_raw_44.html

Hmmm... I got the DNG Converter and ACR from the page I listed.
If you go to the DNG page at http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/ and click on Downloads (in the light gray box on the upper right) for Mac or Windows (I'll use the Windows example here because I'm on a PC right now, but it also worked from my Mac) you will go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3894 and then you have to click on Proceed to download and it should say filename DNG_Camera)Raw_4_4.zip and be 5.4 meg in size (If you follow the Macintosh link the filename is DNG_Camera_Raw_4_4.dmg and is 12.5MB).
However, if you go to the Camera Raw page at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html and click on the download links under the main gray box you will only get the Camera Raw file (filename is Camera_Raw_4_4.zip at 3.3MB or Camera_Raw_4_4.DMG at 7.8MB).
Both download places list the Product name as Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter. But the filenames are different and indicate which one you are downloading.

Camera Raw and DNG Converter for PSE10 and PS CS5.5

I recently bought a Nikon D5200. I have Photoshop CS5.5 at home and PS Elements 10 at work. I had to download a DNG coverter in order to open my RAW files (NEF). I have 2 questions: 1) Which are the latest updates that will work with each of these programs (the listings on the Adobe Download pages are confusing) and 2) Do any of these updates allow a new NEF file to be opened directly without the extra step of DNG conversion? Bit of a pain.

Latest DNG converter can be downloaded from following link:

Would this also be the case for the DNG converter? (just curious because I had been evaluating E-3 ORFs with DNGC 4.3 and ACR v3.7)

Well, I managed to locate and download both the ACR 5.2 and the DNG 5.2, but it was a bit of a challenge. I have a couple of comments regarding the DNG installation.
As a sometime OS beta tester, I have developed a habit of keeping C:\ for the operating system only. When a new OS or beta is issued, I just format C: and install the new OS. I try to keep applications off C:. It is hard, though, with all the default installations. It would be nice to have the option to install DNG.exe in my applications partition.
My workflow involves importing NEF's from the memory card to a folder, and at the same time converting those NEF's to DNG's and putting them in a different folder in a different partition. Both these NEF's and DNG's are archived. A copy of the DNG's are used as working images. The virtue of DNG's is that there are no sidecar files to keep track of when exporting images. Unless I really mess up, I never go back to the NEF's again. I guess that I am an "outlier" too. I guess that this is essentially the 5 - A "double DNG-only" workflow, using type 2, the native-DNG-DNG system. This is discussed in detail by Barry Pearson at http://www.barrypearson.co.uk/articles/dng/safety.htm#personal
I do like the camera profiles. I previously have used the Fors script. My Nikon D200 lacked red and the Fors script fixed that. Not surprisingly, different profiles are appropriate for different image types. Is there any way of determining the methodology and reasoning between the different profiles, and what specific problems each one is designed to correct. This might permit better matching profiles to image types, with less trial and error.

CS3 with Bridge and DNG converter on new MacBook Pro and update recognition

I have CS 3 with Bridge. I installed it on my MAC desktop in 2008 and had to update the DNG converter to recognize my Nikon D700 raw files. I have a new MAC Book Pro and installed the software on it but it does not recognize the raw files, I downloaded the updated DNG converter but unlike the desktop it did not automatically update as I recalled it did in 2008. On the DNG Converter window the #1 selection is select image to convert, #2 Select location to save conver timages and #3 select name for converted images. Not sure what to do here, it all most leads me to believe i need to do this each time I download raw images?
Any step by step help is appreciated!

CS4, Nikon d3100 and DNG Converter

I have CS4 Web Premium and can only update the camera raw to 5.7. I want to download the DNG converter which supports the D3100 and that would be 6.3. However, it appears you cannot download a standalone DNG converter. It is coupled with the Camera Raw update, which is not compatible with CS4. So, what do I have to do to work with my Nikon NEF files in Camera Raw CS4?
Thanks for any and all help!

The DNG Converter 7.4 installer does install the 1+5 Adobe-supplied Nikon D7100 profiles on my Windows 7 64-bit computer. I ran the installer, after deleting the profiles just to make sure they came back, and they all did.
Are you or DxO saying your or their systems do not have the D7100 profiles after installing the Adobe DNG Converter 7.4 or are you or they saying something else?
This is what I see on my computer that was populated by the DNG Converter 7.4.exe installer this morning:

D300 and DNG Converter

Hi,
I am trying to convert my RAW D300 images to DNG using the converter programme (latest version, 6.3.......whatever it is, just downloaded an hour ago). For some reason when I go to select an image from my source file I cannot see any NEF files to choose. I did use the DNG converter about a year ago with D300 Raw files and had no problem. I don't quite know what I'm doing wrong now or why the converter can't see the NEF files. I also seems not to be able to see my older D70 NEF files. Would appreciate any help,
thanks,
Liam

Rob,
this seems to have worked (I am at work and just messing around with one or two NEF files that happen to be on my work computer). I will tinker about on my home machine later. Thank you very much for your prompt and informative reply.......I was becoming very frustrated with this.
Thanks again,
Liam

RESIZE option in LR4's Convert to DNG and DNG Converter 7

Besides the option for lossy compression I would love to see the Resize option from LR4 Beta's Export dialog in DNG Converter 7 as well as in LR4's "Library>Convert to DNG" function.
In the wake of cameras like the Nikon D800 and others with huge image files and easy option to convert to smaller sized DNGs would be very helpful.

Mark Alan Thomas wrote:
Right. I'm not into the whole lossy compression thing. I like the idea of making smaller raw files, but I want the megapixels which remain to be good megapixels.
Now I get what you mean. Apologies.
That would be interesting and of course I absolutely second it: DNG with variable resolution but lossless compressed!
That would be a great option. So why not just offer both independently - resolution and compression?
Just don't disable the "Resize to fit" switch when "Use Lossy Compression" is off.
I understand the perils with this and I also understand that it's kind of counterproductive to the thought of a RAW/DNG file. But in the end, isn't it about flexibility and not purity of a system? Bring on some big fat warnings that make it clear to the user: "you are now leaving the path of a non-destructive file format!" But let the user decide.
For more safety you could even add the need to unlock this functionality in the Preferences.
Side note:
There have been plenty of high-res DSLRs so far, Nikon D3X, Canon 5D MkII, 1Ds MkIII, Sony SLT-A77, SLT-A55, NEX-7, Alpha A-850 Alpha A-900 - but none of them seems to have stirred up the discussion about need and sanity of high megapixel DSLRs like the D800 now does.
It's probably because it's the highest so far and Nikon offers no lower resolution RAW as Canon does. What most seem to agree on however is that the high megapixel count can be nice for many and provides flexibility, but it can also be a burden at the same time.
No idea why Nikon don't offer sRAW like Canon do. But considering all this, a flexible option for smaller DNGs with individually settable compression and/or Resize would be a tremendous accomplishment!

KERNEL32.DLL and DNG Converter

I have Photoshop Elements 3 on my Windows 2000 PC. I just got a Canon Digital Rebel XSi/450D camera which saves RAW images in the .CR2 format. Looking for a way to update my PSE 3 so that it will work with the .CR2 files, I posted a request for help in the Tips, Tools, How-To & Techniques for Digital Imaging Forum.
Juergen D replied: The highest Camera Raw plug-in version for Elements 3 is ACR 3.6. It does not support the XSi. You can, however, download and install it and then separately download a newer version of the Adobe DNG converter, which does handle the XSi. Use it to convert the RAW files to DNG and then in turn open those files with ACR 3.6. I think, that is the way to do it.
I tried his suggestion, and the ACR 3.6 update was accomplished without any problem. Using the Adobe DNG Converter did not turn out as well.
The DNG Converter 4.4.1 looks like the oldest version that would support the *.CR2 RAW files from my Canon XSi/450D. The System Requirements listed on the download page for that version state that "Microsoft® Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3" or newer is supported, and I am using Service Pack 4. However, when I try to run the DNG Converter I receive the error message "Adobe DNG Converter.exe -- Entry Point Not Found." Additional details within the error box indicate that the problem is in KERNEL32.dll. I tried DNG Converter 4.4.1 on a second Win2000 SP4 PC with the same results.
Juergen D then suggested that I try this forum. I have looked at the topics that seemed to relate to .CR2 files, and the idea of using the DNG Converter to convert the .CR2 files to DNG seems to be correct. But, of course, only if I can get the DNG Converter to run! I will greatly appreciate any help that anyone can give me.

I did try DNG Converter 5.2, and got exactly the same error message as with DNG Converter 4.4.1.
I also Googled the KERNEL32 error, and I looked it up in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. I found lots of different things, but none that were the same as my problem where everything else works as it should except one application.
Of the two Win2000 PC's, one is connected to the internet (I am using it now to write this) while the other is isolated. Both have Microsoft Service Pack 4, which was the last one for Win2000. The one connected to the internet is also updated every month using Microsoft Update.
I have used PC's at work for decades starting with a hand-me-down machine that ran on DOS 3.2, and I have had one or two Windows machines at home for years. However, I know just enough about hardware and software to get by most of the time. Digging into Windows' guts is not something that I am knowledgeable enough to do.
I hate the idea of spending a lot of money to buy a support package from Adobe just to have them tell me that they don't know what the problem is and that I should spend a whole lot more money to buy a new Vista PC and Photoshop software.

Profiles are gone with Camera Raw 6.7 beta and DNG-Converter

Hello,
when i open a picture taken with the new Nikon D800 neither LR nor PS show the profiles i can see with the pictures taken from the D700. This also doesn't work when i convert them to dng with the beta version 6.7 of the dng-converter.
My workflow uses the x-rite colorchecker to generate profiles. It wouldn't be nice if this will not work any more.
Andreas
new picture old picture (no changes in program configuration)

Thanks to all answerers,
i think in my first try i did something wrong (didn't check wheter the file was actually created in ..\roaming\adobe\cameraraw\profiles).
The rest was confusing about the camera dependency of the profiles.
Everything works fine now.
Thanks again
Andreas

Hello, Ive been trying to get the profiler to work for the last week with my Fuji 9100 camera. When I attempt to use the chart method the two dots are reversed on the color samples the #6 bluish green is swaped with #19 white. If I move them to the proper square I get a unable to build chart please reshoot message. If I leave them where they are I get a truely awful color balance. Until recently the Adobe Raw processing has be working these images upside down. An additional issue is since installing the new camera raw 4.6 the check box for importing RAW files and convert to DNG is not accessable.
