D800E raw files on import

Trying to import D800E raw files from a CF into Lightroom 4, "no photos found" is the message. Images can be seen in camera so I know they are there. LR version is up to date. Raw Plug-In version is up to date. I can import D4 raw files from CF so not sure what the hangup is. any help ??

The Nikon D800E requires Lightroom 4.1 or higher.

Lightroom 4.4 is the last of the LR4 version (before the LR5 upgrade).
Which version of Lightroom are you running exactly?

How to Delete imported JPEGS after matching RAW files are imported as masters

Using a 5D Mark III and shoot JPEG (SD) and RAW (CF).
Aperture 3.5.1, using a managed library
Perviously, using a 7D so new to shooting JPEG and RAWs from an aperture Aperture workflow standpoint.
I know that i can import the JPEGs > delete images that do not make the cut > then import the matching RAW files in the import dialogue that correspond to the JPEGs in the Aperture Library.
I use the RAW files as my Camera Master images and once the RAW files are imported, the smaller resolution JPEGs are no longer needed or viewed in my normal edit workflow. I only need the JPEGs to quickly go through the images to find out which RAW files i need to import at a later time to increase the speed of import > edit > deliver.
My Assumptions:
1. Logic would lead me to believe that after import the user should see a stack like image representation with whatever file type is considered Master to be on top and the viewable secondary file type on the bottom. clicking on the image stack should allow you to see both file types as you would normally see with image stacks with the same files types. This is not the case... What am i missing here?
2. Logic again would lead me to believe that when i have the ability to delete one of the 2 image types as i do not need both in the end. After the import process is complete and RAWs are backed up, I want to delete the JPEG files as they are just taking up more space on my DAS drive array... There is no need to keep a duplicate of every file in both JPEG and RAW format. This is not the case as when i delete the JPEG or RAW, both files formats are deleted simultaneously. What am i missing here?
Problems: (correspond to Assumptions above)
1. I do not seem to have access to both images (JPEG & RAW) in a stack where i can expand and close the stack to see both? It seems like i only have access to the image type i have selected as Master? This seems counter intuitive to what the workflow should be as why would aperture 'lock the secondary file types away' so you can't easily view both file types as the same time for comparison?
2a. Reality seems to be that i do not have access to the JPEG and RAW image files. I can only see one at a time by selecting the images and choosing 'make JPEG master’ and then respectively... 'make RAW master', but you can't see both at the same time for file comparison.
2b. Also, I can't find a way to delete the JPEG images after the RAW files have been imported. I would presume most professional photographers shoot RAW and do not shoot JPEG as their camera master or editing master images. I do not understand why aperture has captured both as a pair in the library that does not allow me to delete the JPEG (in this case) as i have selected the RAW as my master.
If someone can please help... The function seems like either i am missing something obvious or that the implemented function of using RAW + JPEGs files for import is broken from a real world workflow standpoint.

leonie...
thank you for clearing that up for me.
I think that at this point it is silly to use the JPEG+RAW import functionality as it seems that it takes longer to do the above steps than to just import only the RAW files and press on from there.
I seems what i have done in the past of only importing the RAW files and then using the quick preview functionality to reduce image load times is the best thing in can come up with without keeping 'duplicates' in the database.
That really baffels me that there is no built in functionality to remove the JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair and i wonder how the real world photographers who help Apple test and implement software to solve real world workflow problems thought the JPEG+RAW import was going to be used.
I do understand that i can use a smaller JPEG file size to reduce the bloat of the database, but used over hundreds of thousands of images is certainly going to make a dent in my total aperture database size and therefore storage needs down the road.
If you have any other workflow thoughts, or know of a 3rd party plugin/ etc... to fix this obvious shortcoming then i am all ears..
thank you again Leonie and have a great week

How to open Nikon D800E Raw files in PSE9? [was:Gad, what next?]

I'm not a beginner, but after installing and upgrading Photoshop Elements 9, I find it cannot recognize RAW files from Nikon D800E. Either don't load, or load just noise, no picture. Suggestions -- I hope?

Moved from Photoshop for Beginners forum to Photoshop Elements forum
The D800E was first supported in Camera Raw 6.7
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
which is only compatible with PSE10 or later
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
You can either upgrade to PSE12 to open and read Raw files in PSE
or download the free DNG converter, convert all D800E Raw files to DNGs then open and edit the DNGs in PSE9

ACR and Nikon D800e Raw files

This discussion is actually a follow on to an earlier one where I thought the issue was resolved. I am using CS5 extended 64 bit with WIN 7 64bit and ACR version 6.7. I verified the ACR version checking for updates and was informed I am up to date. According to the ADOBE help site ACR v 6.7 is available to open Nikon D800e raw files. However when I try and open these raw files there is a message that the camera model is not supported. Any help on why the raw files cannot be opened with ACR 6.7 is appreciated.

Thanks Noel - after several hours of experimenting, I found the issue. I use a stand a lone software, Nikon Transfer, to download images to the computer. The software allows me to preview/select, rename, and make simultaneous copies for backup. This software has worked without issue, however when downloading images from the Nikon D800e, it does something to the raw files making them incompatible with ADOBE's ACR and even Nikon's ViewNX 2 software. Now here is the real curosity. When Nikon Transfer is initiated from within Nikon View2 software and not as a stand a lone, it works, and ADOBE ACR 6.7 can read the raw files. Again thanks for the help.

Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import

Has anyone experienced Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import?

How do you know they aren’t corrupted before you import, or the old one wasn’t already corrupted and you just regenerated the preview and could then see the corruption where what you saw, before was from the preview cache and not the current image?
Is the corruption a problem with the Previews or does LR actually choke on the file and say it is unreadable or show you a gray thumbnail or pixilation starts halfway down the photo.
Can you prove the files were intact coming off the card and only are corrupted after importing into LR? Can you get to the originals on the card, still?

Preview of CR2 raw files on import window from camera

Hi
I have this problem with my Canon XTI. When I connect the camera to the computer and open the import dialog window, I can not see the previews of my CR2 raw files. But if I copy the CR2 files to he hard disk and try tho import from it, then previews are shown on the import window.
Can anybody help me?

Probably because the program is trying to write back a marker to the card as it "opens" the images for the preview and the camera won't let it.
It's not a good idea to import images directly from the camera anyway. Card readers are really cheap - and they WILL let you see the previews.

What happens to Raw files when importing Raw+JPG from camera to Lightroom Mobile on iPad? Only JPGs are showing up.

Hey I am Brian, and I was wondering how Lightroom mobile works again as in when importing photos directly into iPad using the camera connection kit.? This is for IPad 2. I . Like when importing raw files. now I just did a photo shoot. and I just uploaded them into lightroom 5 on desktop. the raw files are being pushed as smart priviews acroos ipad and iphone. its kinda cool seeing cr2 file showing up on lightroom mobile. when its coming from lightroom 5. but what about coming from camera to ipad.?
I thought you can import a Raw plus jpeg into ipad and it shows up as a jpeg plus raw file. well its not doing that. shows up as just jpeg.
cant wait for next update of lighroom mobile.

With this version of LR Mobile we not support the direct RAW import.

Aperture 3.4.1 and raw 4 update installed now many of my D700 and D800E raw files are turning in to unsupported file format?

Only happens if the file is opened for editing and not to all files. Pictures are visible in the browser. No issuses with Aperture prior to upgrade. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

leonieDF
Have not been able to re-install raw 3.13 always says newer software and closes
I have Aperture disc 1,2,and 3;
Followed commands to re-install from #3 no change in library's unsupported images when upgraded to 3.4.1
Uninstall again with Mac Cleaner all ?DLL files erased only library remains
Install #3 from disc and new permissions to open library"from newer version" and all of previous images restored, but new older ones start to blink out "they do not turn black but look like you are using rabbit ears to tune in your TV, scrambled" until viewed for processing then become unsupported.
Repaired 3.1 library and Aperture would open but not open library. Re-installed 3.4.1 many more images failing to load across entire 5700 Nef's library but not JPEG.
Close but where is culprit?
Raw 4 is always there even in Aperture 3.1 due to Lion OSX8
3.4.1 is the only down loaded upgrade, new down load each time
Raw files/cameras are D200,D700,D800E and possibly Lecia DLUX-3
IMAC 2.4 core 2 duo
4G 667
Radeon HD 2600
OSX 10.8.2
no aperture problems since 1.0 until recent upgrades
Thank-you

Retrieving Raw Files after import...?

I shoot all RAW files and have imported them to my iPhoto. How do I retrieve the RAW file from iphoto. If I copy and drag them out of iPhoto they are .jpg... Is it too late and does iPhoto convert them upon import.
Also and clue on if Aperture does the same thing?

File -> Export, Kind: Original
When you import a Raw to iPhoto it automatically creates a jepg preview of the file. Why? Because you cannot do anything with a Raw: you cannot print it, use it a slideshow and so on. However, with this preview you can work with the photo immediately.
You can, however, also process the Raw in iPhoto simply by editing it. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut). The output from the processing then replaces the preview. You can choose to save your output as either jpeg or tiff in the iPhoto Preferences.
When you are processing Raw in iPhoto you will see the Raw badge on the bottom of the iPhoto Window
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
Note: After you have processed a Raw, subsequent edits to the photo are carried out on the processed jpeg (or tiff) not the Raw. If you want to go back to the original then you need to use the Photos -> Reprocess Raw command.
Aperture works in an entirely different way. What are you trying to do, exactly?

Lightroom 3 Corrupting .CR2 RAW files on import

I have never used RAW files before yesterday. About to shoot a wedding in a couple days so desperately need a fix or at least some advice for a workaround.
Here's my hardware list:
Canon 7D
SanDisk Ultra II 2 & 4 GB CF cards
Windows 7 64x
Internal card reader, not some flimsy USB thing
Lightroom 3
Problem:
After importing .CR2 RAW files using Lightroom 3, not Bridge, I found that some (not all) of the images appear to be corrupted. On the camera they look fine.
For a short moment, in Lightroom, they look fine, but then after clicking the thumbnail they instantly develop strange corruptions, like pink/yellow/opaque static.
This is not one of my photos, but the corrupted image looks just like this: http://thekuipers.org/images/IMG_2279.jpg
Used some advice and downloaded Fast Picture Viewer, which allows me to view the .CR2s in the folder I imported to, and MOST of them look fine now. Reimported to LR and now only like 8 of 200 images are corrupted. They still export to .jpg as corrupted.
I had formatted my CF cards immediately after importing, only to find the corruptions after. Using Stellar Phoenix Photo Recovery to try to reimport manually the residual data from CF cards. Will know if that works soon.

From previous posts on this forum there are several things that can cause this type of corruption on import; faulty, CF cards, card reader, cable, and RAM.
On my system it turned out to be faulty ram. Since changing my ram I have not experienced any further problems.

Aperture 3.1 can't find/see my Canon RAW files when importing

Aperture 3.1 cannot see my CANON RAW files when doing import!!!
Do I really have to re-reference each image in the library if I have moved the library to a different volume? Images are not moved to the library, only referenced.

You don't want to re-import files if you move the library. You just need to reconnect the masters.
If you moved the whole thing over at once it should be easy; if you monkeyed with the folder names you could have a lot of work on your hands.

WB change with digital IR RAW file upon import, no presets applied

Hi all,
I was doing some digital IR work with my Nikon D50 and a wratten 89b filter. I had set the WB to green grass through the filter. I shot in RAW. Viewing on the LCD, which is, I think, using the embedded JPG in the RAW file, things looked good, with green foliage coming out as it should with the custom WB.
However, upon import, with no develop settings at all, the images basically "lost" their WB and went back to the magenta-looking images that you'd normally get with a daylight WB through the filter. The WB was set in LR as "as-shot."
Any idea what happened? I'll shoot some in JPEG today which will obviously lock the WB in-camera, but it was weird.
thanks,
allan

If the JPEG locks the WB for you, you could then, maybe, set the RAW to the same WB setting?
Then maybe a preset for WB might work?

Batch Rename Raw Files After Import?

Can you batch rename raw files after you import, so that the file name changes in Aperture and on the hard drive? I want to be able to edit images, and then rename only the keepers. This has been asked before here, but I could not find an answer.
Thanks!

RAW files not importing

Hi
I have lots of RAW images taken with a Canon G2 which iPhoto 6 doesn't import for me when I drag the files over. The camera is on the famous list of supported cameras (http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/cameras.html). Why might these files fail to import?
Thanks

This is not a case of iPhoto stopping importing. It has failed to recognise my G2 RAWs from the start. As RAWs from my other cameras are OK in iPhoto it seems I am not doing anything wrong with RAW files generally. OSX and Preview both read my G2 RAWs, so there is nothing wrong with the files. But, iPhoto does not read them and – whatever the list of supported cameras claims – my G2 RAWs are clearly not supported by iPhoto.
I have searched the forums thoroughly without a sniff of a solution. That leaves me looking elsewhere than iPhoto for a program to make a complete catalogue of my images.
Unless someone has a fix...

Canon 5D Mark 2 Raw Files wont import.

My Friend has a Canon 5d Mark 2 and the files will not import. it says it's an unrecognized format.
now when I shoot with my Canon rebel Xti in raw it will import them. does anybody know if apple will support the canon 5d mark 2 raw files in iPhoto? Or is there something i did not check in prefs to help import?

Hi. I've got a slightly different problem. I've just upgraded from Canon 20D to 5D and although the RAW files and JPEGs DO both import, the RAW files are no longer labelled 'CR' with the image number. There's just an image number, which duplicates the JPEG file number alongside. I've tried to find a setting in iPhoto9 prefs and also on the camera to add the CR suffix, but have not resolved this. I would like the RAWs to import with the CR tag, as with the 20D. Am I missing something...?!
