Develop settings when importing RAW + jpeg

When importing NEF files from my D700 I apply the landscape sharpening pre-set and am happy with the results.  However on my Fuji X20 I import RAW+jpeg rather than just RAW, in this situation if I use the landscape sharpening pre-set sharpening is applied to the jpeg as well as the RAW resulting in the already sharpened in camera jpeg being grossly over sharpened.  If on the other hand I use none for the develop pr-set no sharpening or noise reduction is applied to the jpeg and a minimum amount applied to the RAW file, more or less what I want except I want the higher landscape sharpening applied to the RAW files.  Is there anyway to modify the built in pre-sets so that they only get applied to the RAW files when importing RAW+jpeg pairs?

I believe the answer is No, you cannot apply a preset at Import time based on file type. 
What you can do is after you import, filter on File Type and set it to JPG and apply another preset that changes the sharpening settings of the filtered set of files, then go back and turn off the filter and work with both sets of images as you want.
To filter by File Type, you need to go to Library Grid, enable the filter bar with the backslash \ key if necessary, then select Metadata, and either change one of the existing filter columns to say File Type or add a new File Type column.
Once you have created and applied the filter, you can save it as a filter preset that can be applied by the filter preset selector at the very right and just above the thumbnail strip at the bottom, even in Develop mode.
You might make one for raw and for jpg in case you want to swap between the two, and if you shoot JPGs with more than one camera model, you can add the camera model to the filter criteria.

  • Camera settings when importing raw

    do any camera setting (portrait , landscape,contrast,saturation,etc,) matter when importing raw.

    thanks very helpful
    if i like one of my custom setting, best thing would be shoot in raw+jpeg, match raw in lightroom to jpeg and save as preset,that way i could save time in prossessing.
    and future raw just use preset for prossessing.

  • Loosing D300 Picture Control settings when importing RAW files into CS3!!

    Hi there...I would really appreciate some help!!
    I have recently bought a D300/Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 which I love, however, I'm getting increasingly frustrated by either my lack of knowledge or some form of compatibility issue between the D300 and CS3!!
    When importing I am loosing all the RAW Picture Control settings!! - e.g. If I shoot using Picture Control "Monochrome" CS3 rips out all of the settings and returns the RAW image back to the default camera settings!! It doesn't seem to be the D300 as Picture Control settings are retained when viewing the RAW images on the camera's screen.
    Camera: D300/firmware - default install
    Computer: MacBook Pro Intel 2.4Ghz/2Gb RAM | Operating System: OS X 10.5.4 (9E17) | Software: Abobe CS3 with CameraRAW 4.4.1 plugin (also tried beta 4.5 but to no avail!!)
    Thanks in advance!!

    I am trying to open a NEF file (RAW format) from my card with PhotoShop CS3 and it does not work. These photos were taken with a Nikon D300. A window appears and the message read as follows:
    "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
    Could someone help me?
    I have searched the online material and I have not found a solution as of yet.
    I have no issues opening JPEGs taken with a D300 and I can open NEF files that were taken with a Nikon D200...
    I appreciate your help.

  • Loss of camera settings when importing raw files in Aperture 3

    Hello Everyone,
    I seem to have an issue with raw pictures taken with a Nikon D90. I noticed that when shooting in raw, any setting I used on the camera (for example B&W or landscape settings) are lost after the pictures are imported in A3. Did anyone else experience the same issue? Is there any solution to this?
    Thanks,
    Val

    Shooting raw will always give best results and probably simplest to do any adjustments you want inside of Aperture. When you select B&W Aperture is not communicating with Nikon fully or visa versa. It is a simple and more rewarding experience to set B&W or any other settings in the Adjustments Pane in Aperture. There is another small tab also called Adjustments which opens a drop down window. Here there are a range of options to choose from one is B&W. Another pane then opens with red green or blue filters. B&W is sensitive to colour. With these you can change the way the grey scale sees things like the blue sky or foliage.
    Another nice feature of raw is no need to worry about White Balance. Leave the camera on Auto WB, any inaccuracy can be easily sorted in Aperture. Nikon has quite good auto WB anyway.
    To begin, it is best to consider raw as a starting point rather than a finished product until you get used to the things that do and don't interface twixed camera and Aperture.
    I hope that is some help. Welcome to Aperture. Allan

  • Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files ignored when unchecked

    In the Catalog Settings under the Metadata tab, I have unchecked the option 'Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF and PSD files'.
    I then selected a JPEG photograph in the Library module and chose Metadata/Save Metatdata to File.  I wanted to save the metadata that I had added (keywords, IPTC, rating, etc), but not the develop settings.
    I then imported the jpeg back into another catalog.  The metadata I had added was there as expected, but so are the develop settings.  This I did not expect or want.
    Have I got something wrong here?  My understanding is that turning off the 'Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF and PSD files' option means that develop settings are not written to the xmp area in non raw files such as jpegs.
    Looks like a bug to me.
    Tony

    Hello all,
    I have investigated this problem further and now have the answer.  It is not that the option "Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files" is ignored, but it appears that the LR catalog is not properly updated when this option is turned off.
    Here are steps to test and illustrate the problem:
    1. Create a new folder and place a copy of an original jpeg image (original from camera) in the new folder.  Make sure you keep the original safe and only work on copies.
    2. Create a new catalog in Lightroom 2.3.
    3. Import the jpeg image from the new folder.
    4. Add some metadata (keywords, ratings, title, caption, IPTC data, etc).
    5. Make some Develop adjustments to the image.
    6. Open "Catalogue Settings" from the Edit menu and check (enable) the option "Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files".  Uncheck (disable)  the "Automatically write changes into XMP" option.
    7. Select "Save Metadata to File".
    8. Delete the jpeg image from the Library module, then re-import it.
    9. Copy the original image back to the new folder, replacing the updated jpeg (once again, the jpeg image now contains no metadata from Lightroom).  At this stage, Lightroom fails to recognize that the metadata in the LR catalog doesn’t match the metadata content in the jpeg file.  I would have though that it should.
    10. Open "Catalogue Settings" from the Edit menu and uncheck (turn off) the option "Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files".
    11. Reset the Develop settings.
    12. You now need to make a change to the metadata like increase or decrease the rating (otherwise LR won’t save any metadata to the jpeg file - LR is being too smart and thinks it’s already up to date, so does nothing when you do the next step).
    12. Select "Save Metadata to File".
    13. Delete the jpeg image from the Library module again, then re-import it again.
    14. Look at the develop settings (that you specifically did not want saved within the jpeg file in step 10).
    Although the Develop settings were Reset in step 11, you have ended up with the original Develop settings from step 5.  It is true that LR has not saved the reset develop settings, but it also hasn’t removed the old develop settings that are still stored in the catalog.  This must be considered a bug (oversight).  Note that it has also saved an Import snapshot as well.
    For the more technically minded (and the LR developers if you are listening), the field "xmp" in the table "Adobe_AdditionalMetadata" is not updated (old camera raw settings and snapshot settings are left behind) when the "Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files" option is unchecked (disabled) and it seems that this is the data that is written to the jpeg file when you select "Save Metadata to File".  Note that the state of "Automatically write changes into XMP" has not effect on this process - I tried it on and off.
    Hope that this might be of some help to others one day.

  • JPEG DEVELOP SETTINGS TRANSFERED TO RAW FILES

    I am trying to find out if you can transfer the develop settings/ranking/Etc. done on JPEG files to the same names RAW files. I shoot JPEG+RAW and I would like to send the JPEGS to someone off site for color corrections, crop, ranking, Etc. (because they are smaller in size) and then somehow apply those corrections to the RAW files counterparts. This would allow me to outsorce my sorting and rough color and transfer that work to the "keepers" RAW files. I can't enven begin to tell you what a positive impact this would have on my business (and my sleep schedule). If you know of any way to "extract" that XMP data from the JPEGS and apply it to the RAW (I currently shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II which generates .cr2 files) I would really appreciate it. Even if it's a work around solution.
    Many thanks,
    Cris

    Cris,
    The following procedure should work:
    On your "Remote Site":
    Set "Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files" in the Catalog Settings
    After working on the JPEGs, execute "Save Metadata to File"
    On your "local Site":
    Use ExifTool to "Export metadata into XMP files ..."
    Move the XMP files into the folder where your CR2s reside
    In LR, execute "Read Metadata from File" on all your CR2s which you have created XMP Sidecars for
    This will apply the metadata (like ratings, color labels, keywords) as well as development settings (including crops) from the extracted XMP-File to your CR2s.
    BUT:
    While I can see that the "normal" metadata (like ratings etc.) will make sense on your CR2s, I don't know if the development settings performed on a JPEG (except maybe cropping) will make any sense on a CR2. Give it a try and tell us ....

  • When importing Raw into A3, in what format is the picture displayed? Jpeg or tiff.

    When importing Raw into A3, in what format is the picture displayed on the screen? Jpeg or Tiff ?

    None of the comments you have gotten are particularly useful.  The display is independent of format of the file.  It's rendering is of the full pixels in the image file that you have imported, modified by any adjustments you have made, or not if you ask to see the Master.
    Even if your Master was imported as a JPEG, as seen on the screen it would have been decompressed, and you would see all the pixels (that the screen is capable of).  However, a JPEG may have lost some detail in the compression, but when decompressed has the same number of pixels as the equivalent uncompressed photo format -- but some of them may result from interpolation, and not be the original.

  • When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    This is typical of the default NEF RAW conversion of Aperture and the best thing you can do is set up a few presets to apply to all of your RAW images to get a tone curve and colors that is pleasing to you as a default. The in camera JPEGs / embedded JPEGs (that you first see during import) are treated to the Nikon "Picture Control" settings that are set on the camera - the RAW's as interpreted by Aperture are not.
    I have written extensively and even have a few downloadable presets on my site - look for NEF...

  • LR 4 Not Importing RAW+JPEG

    Here's a strange one.
    Currently running Mac OS X 10.7.3, LR 3.6 installed as well as the 30-day demo of the release version of LR 4.0.  Importing from a camera-formatted Sandisk 8GB Extreme Pro (45MB/sec)
    Camera - Sony A77.
    Problem - Importing RAW+JPEG using LR4 only imports the RAW, not the JPEG.  I've already checked "Treat JPEGs as separate..." option in LR 4, yet when I pull up the import dialog about half the time I simply don't see the JPEGs next to my ARW files...only the ARW.  All import sorting options are off.
    I can then simultaneously open LR 3 and upon attempted import, I'm presented with all files just fine.
    Back to LR4 again, still only the ARW, even after "quitting" the app and reopening.
    It gets stranger, though - As I was typing this, I went ahead and tried to import again in LR4 and THIS time JPEGs are showing up along side RAW.  I even double-checked to make sure I was using LR4's window and now LR 3.
    Anyone else having this issue??

    Bumping this thread because I'm also having the problem. LR4 on Lion 10.7.3, never used the LR4b release. Only the first 10-20 images come in as NEF+JPG and after that I get only JPGs. Just imported six 8GB cards without realizing the problem, since it never used to be one...
    My workaround has been to manually transfer files off the card into the destination, and then 'Synchronize Folder..." in LR. The import dialoge that pops up has no problem showing all the files correctly, and they import without problems. This leads me to believe the bug has something to do with importing directly from the card or camera.
    I understand any major new release is bound to have some bugs, but this, in conjunction with LR4 crashing any time I try to print, is making the newest release pretty useless for me. The Library and Print modules account for 85% of my time in LR, with the Develop module accounting for the rest (Maps/Books/Slideshows/Web are never opened, ever). In the most abstract sense, LR is made for streamlining the input and output of images, and neither of those processes are working for me.

  • 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.

  • When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size?

    When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size from canon 5d mark iii, in older versions I used to be able to import the files as larger images. It use to have a number of options for the images size. The option now is smaller than the maximum size used to be.

    You know what - I'm sorry
    I'd had a crazy long all-nighter session sorting out images for a client, then decided - when I should have simply gone to bed - to set up the new photoshop. At the very start I made a silly mistake, tried to sort it out then decided to call it a day, responding to your remarks with the problem still in my head but feeling more and more tired.
    Responded again to your comment earlier with the problem still in my head but not in front of me on the screen - however with a fresh head I just turned it all on, opened up PS and today could instantly see what was going on - Oops!
    Thank you for being patient with a sleep deprived photographer who must have been getting annoying yesterday
    I am officially embarrassed

  • Importing RAW+JPEG then deleting JPEG later?

    I shoot RAW+JPEG, primarily because I can upload the JPEGs easily for family to see (lots of pictures of our toddler) and I can keep the RAWs around for more involved editing. Importing as RAW+JPEG w/ JPEGs as masters is great since I can tag, rate, etc before uploading, but once I've got the JPEGs online, I really have no need for them. So...
    *What's the best way to get rid of JPEG masters (and obviously change the RAWs to masters) after I'm finished with them?*

    Nikon, in its infinite wisdom, has elected not to share the encoding methods for any of its sensor data with third-party software companies, with the exception of white balance. As a result, the "first look" at any Nikon RAW file that's not opened in their own software is pretty bad (presets make it better, but still tend to fall short). That's not to say Nikon software is required to make a RAW look gorgeous, but the default rendering by Nikon software is pretty darn amazing given the complete lack of work needed. Since the JPEG's use these defaults, they're equally amazing. On the other hand, shooting RAW then exporting to JPEG in Aperture means vastly inferior shots "out of the box" since aperture can't decode anything but white balance. I could certainly make them better, but I really just want an "OK Mom, here're pictures of your grandson" solution that requires no additional time at the computer for me. Since the JPEGs are "perfect" to begin with, begin able to tag the photos, upload the JPEGs with keywords, etc intact, then delete them and save the RAWs for more involved work later, is ideal.
    *So, how do I import RAW+JPEG and later delete the JPEGs and make the RAWs the new masters?*

  • White balance shifting when importing raw files

    When I import my raw files from my 5D mark 2 my white balance is set to 5200K, when in Lightroom it shifts to 4850K? Any body know why?

    If there are no import presets being applied from the import pane, there's one other way this could be happening.  If you're taking advantage of the ability to adjust LR's default import presets (NOT the same as what user web-weaver is talking about which is configured through the import panel) and you accidentally captured a setting other than "as shot" while making the changes, then this is likely your culprite.
    This feature is fantastic for automatically applying ISO-specific NR to each file on import, but it can also catch other settings you may not have intended while configuring it.  Go back to the files you originally used to set the defaults for each individual ISO, reset the WB to "as shot," and set defaults again.  The menu option for this only appears in the develop module.  Menu: Develop -> Set Default Settings...
    You can also choose to wipe out all previously configured defaults by going to your preferences window, then Presets tab.  Look for the "Reset all default Develop settings" button.
    Hope this helps you or anyone else who comes along. 

  • Importing Raw Jpeg Pairs with Jpeg as Master

    I give....I imported raw and jpeg as pairs since aperture updated for the D7000. I see the J on the badge. I assume they are stacked. I see where i can change the master to the raw file by right clicking. However, can't i just navigate to the raw file for adjustments or do I have to switch the master? I have looked at the manual. I have a book on aperture, I searched the board. I gotta be missing something really basic! Please help this stupid newbie. Is it better to import both as masters in the future? What do people prefer? tx
    Message was edited by: Sheryl Kingstone

    Hi Sheryl,
    No, you aren't missing anything really basic. The RAW and JPG aren't really stacked. They are associated together in a different way that is only applicable for pulling JPG and RAW versions of the same photo out of your camera together.
    If you can answer the following question, it might help the other users (and mybe you) help you.
    Why is it a problem to have your RAW be the master?
    With your hesitation to switch the master to the RAW, you imply to me that you would like Aperture to work with your JPG files, but at the same time it your question implies that you would like you want to work on your RAW file.
    In my own preference, I struggled with what to start out with, RAW or JPG. I came to the conclusion that I didn't want to spend the time comparing RAW and JPG from my camera and deciding what to do. I no longer capture RAW+JPG in my camera.
    Basically, post-processing the RAW file through Aperture gives you lots more information to work with, as the creation of a JPG in your camera throws out lots of colors and pixels. So, I had to balance things, why would I choose to take a "throwaway snapshot" with RAW if I knew it probably wouldn't be worth post-processing? For instance, all the pictures of my niece at the dinnertable in really bad light. I can't do anything worthwhile in post-processing with the sharp shadows, and the 5 different and ugly light sources, and the fact that she only looked at the camera once. Yeah, I can make it a little better, but not enough that it's worth post-processing to me. So, for those pictures, I just let my camera do the work and use the most basic, point-and-shoot settings most of the time. My camera produces JPG-only in the basic settings.
    On the other hand, for those sunsets, gardens, forests, streams, vistas, etc, I probably would like to do a little post-processing if my exposure wasn't right to begin with. I decided that I would just let Aperture decode the RAW file for me and forget about the JPGs entirely. When I'm using my camera in manual mode (or one of the quasi-manual modes) I shoot in RAW only. Yes, my camera will do a better job rendering a JPG than Aperture will, but Aperture's very good and I figure I wouldn't be looking at the JPG from the camera if I'm doing other post-processing in Aperture.
    That being said, there are many other opinions and othe reasons to choose one way or the other.
    Hope that eas clear enough. I had lots of ideas to write about.
    hope this helps,

  • Lightroom Won't Import RAW+Jpeg

    I took photos using Nikon D200 using the setting RAW+Jpeg. When I insert my memory card into the reader and tell it to import all photos, it only sees and imports the RAW. Looking the the CF card directly, I can see both jpeg and raw, but LR will only bring in the Raw..any reason for this? I unchecked check for duplicates to see if that mattered and it doesn't.

    Shane-
    <br />
    <br />This is intentional behavior, lots don't like it, lots do. For me, personally, I never pull down JPEG copies with my RAW files from the camera, but this is not for everyone.
    <br />There are workarounds, (search threads) but the simplest to to ditch the JPEGs and create them as needed from the adjusted RAW files.
