Does aperture handle dng files from a scan?

I'm scanning 35 mm slides via a Pacific Image 5000 through Vuescan. The advice the manual gives me (Vuescan) is to scan raw to a disc and then read the scan via Vuescan to do some basic clean-up. I 'd to send this processed image raw (.dng) to Aperture for final processing and saving without going through saving other formats .(pdf, tiff, etc) intil I 'm done with the image. Can this be done? Aperture says the dng file is not in a format it can read. How can that be if Aperture is supposed to handle raw?

Aperture can handle many raw formats, but not all. mainly the raw formats of professional cameras. And it will depend on your Aperture version, which raw formats are supported. See this list:
Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
As to DNG-files, see this footnote:
Aperture works with most DNG files generated from cameras that support this format and with DNG files generated by the Adobe DNG Converter with the “Convert to Linear Image” option turned off.

  • Does Aperture support RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera?

    Please can anyone let me know whether Aperture supports RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera? The Apple Aperture site lists support for DMC-F35 and other later cameras but does not allow a search for others.
    Many thanks.
    John

    Only the cameras on this list are supported:  Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
    Th FZ27 is not.
    For my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 I am using Adobe's free DNG Coverter to convert the RAW files to DNG. It does not always work, but for most of the RW2 files I can work in Aperture this way. The stubborn files I convert to TIFF.

  • How does Aperture handle file structure

    I have been working with iPhoto since its infancy and have one big issue with it, namely that it is such a closed system. I dislike that everything needs to be imported and exported to use it elsewhere, clogging up my computer with all these duplicates. Does Aperture handle that better? I spent 2 hours reading different reviews and discussions and for some reason, nobody seems to discuss exactly that, maybe most people don't mind to have a vault structure? If so, how do you handle sharing files outside of the tools like Facebook export etc that are offered?
    Thanks ~ Barb

    namely that it is such a closed system.
    It's not. It's a Database and this
    everything needs to be imported...
    is a characteristic of databases. This
    and exported to use it elsewhere
    is just not true if you use any of the very many ways that the OS and other applications integrate with iPhoto. I rarely, if ever, exported from iPhoto when it was my primary Photo app.
    The point is not to defend iPhoto, but if the database aspect of it irritates you then run a mile from Aperture. Everything has to be imported and can be accessed only in (pretty much) the same ways as they can be in iPhoto.
    how do you handle sharing files outside of the tools like Facebook export etc that are offered?
    Here's a stock answer I use over on the iPhoto forum. You can pretty much swap the word 'Aperture' for iPhoto:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    +*(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)+*
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.

  • Aperture does not support raw files from my Leica d-lux 6.

    When will Aperture support RAW files from a Leica d-lux 6?

    You can download a free copy of Adobe DNG Converter. You then can use this program to convert the D Lux RAW files into DNG RAW files. Aperture will be able to read the DNG files. This is a bit of pain but it will work until Apple supports the D Lux in its usual glacial time span.

  • Lightroom 4.  dose not handle RAW files from canon 5D MK 111.

    I have purchased lightroom 4. It dose not handle RAW files from canon 5D MK 111.
    I have downloaded and ran the suggested file from Adobe, but still no luck.
    Anyone have the answer?

    The initial release of Lightroom 4 doesn't handle the 5d mk 3 files because of when the camera was released.  You can either wait for the 4.1 release, or you can download the 4.1 Release Candidate 2 at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom4-1/.
    Technically you can also download Adobe's DNG converter, but that just adds another program to the situation.

  • How do I get CS5 Bridge/Photoshp to handle RAW files from my D800E?

    How do I get CS5 Bridge/Photoshop to handle RAW files from my D~800E?

    There are many who would say, based only on empiric data (boo) and not opinion (yay), that the most accurate raw conversions would be obtained using the Nikon software and not secondary processors like the Adobe converter. The DNG process makes irreversible changes to the raw data which may or may not matter but the DNG is not the same as the original raw file.
    You can do the experiment yourself, for FREE, and compare different methods of raw conversion. You may be surprised at what you see. You have to be because different converters tune to different image characteristics. Don't be taken in about claims Adobe makes for its convertor without proving them to yourself. Adobe has made deliberate pre-set choices for its converter and they may not be the best for you. Or they may be, as we have all become so used to what Adobe chooses we think we chose it ourselves.
    If I were able to afford, and had the energy to lug around a D800e, I might not want to compromise the image quality I just shelled out such massive bucks to obtain using the Adobe converter without proving that was the best option for me, but I don't do it for a living. Also, if you can shell out for a D800e and are enamored of the Adobe Converter realize it only costs $10/month for a CC subscription, possibly tax deductible, and you can still retain your older version of PS. The CC version of PS allows use of the ACR as a filter layer, if you are fond of the converter tools (which are much improved in the latest version).

    How does one remove temporary files from Safari?  A friend logged on to her Facebook account using my iMac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and Safari 6.1.6.  Now I can't remove her e-mail address from my computer.  When I open Facebook her address shows in the user button.  I do not have a Facebook account.  It was suggested to me that I try clearing temporary files from Safari but I can't find anything that tells me how to do this.  Are temporary files the same as the cache?  It also was suggested that I try clearing Safari cache.  How do I do that?

    Check Safari/Preferences/Passwords to see if the Facebook account is there. If so, select it and remove it. If you are still having problems, Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. If that doesn't work, Safari/Reset Safari.

  • Error message when trying to send .dng file from Lr to Ps

    If I am working in Lr (5.4) and try to send a .dng file from Lr to Photoshop CC (reinstalled latest version from Adobe.com today, 4/13/2014), I get this message: "
    Adobe Photoshop CC cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop CC works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X."
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop CC today and that did not fix the problem. I am in OS 10.8.5 on an iMac. Thanks!

    Hello,
    Programs that run in the background cannot address controls on the frontend. This is why you are not able to run a Program using SAP Office Integration which is a Frontend Control and can be used only with the SAP Gui. Since background process cannot make use of UI screens or actions hence it's not possible use SAP Office Integration in background processing. The reason for this is explained in note 674060. Therefore sending emails using a batch macro is not supported.

    My program does not read raw files from mark III

    emac77,
    Support for Canon 5D MIII RAW files was announced in ACR 7.1 (Adobe Camera Raw 7.1).
    The current stable release is ACR 7.2 while ACR 7.3 is still a Release Candidate (Beta).
    Starting ACR 7.2, Adobe stopped supplying a manual download link which was available till 7.1. Adobe Application Manager (AAM) is the only way for you to update to ACR 7.2.
    However, here is a direct download link that AAM connects to for the download that you can use to grab the .zip or .dmg (Mac) file. Download and install. See if you're able to open your files then.
    ACR 7.2 for Windows: http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/win/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/7.2.82/Setup.zip

  • Olympus E-P1: Why DNG files from DNG-Converter, Lightroom or CameraRaw are invalid ?

    Hello from Spain:
    I've got a Olympus Pen E-P1.
    I work with DNG Converter 5.5, Lightroom 2.5, CameraRaw 5.5, Photoshop CS4 with my *.ORF files with no problems, and I can convert ORF in DNG with those software smooth, but...
    I can't open those DNG files with DNG Profile Editor. It display a error message "Could not open the selected image. Note that the selected image must be a valid DNG color image".
    I'm trying to create a E-P1 DNG Profile using ColorChecker Passport. When I try to import a DNG file displays a similar error message "Can't open the file. Is a invalid DNG file".
    What is occurring about DNG files from E-P1's ORF?.
    Thank you,
    Juanlu.

    Hi, Beat:
    Thanks for your offer.
    Here you are a link to _B101110.ORF from my E-P1 for anyone who wants to try.

  • Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4

    Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4. I don't understand why this is not straight forward.

    Hello!
    The DNG format's goal is to be an universal file formats for camera raw files: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html?promoid=DTEHA
    You can save a DNG from camera raw without a problem.
    Just go the the bottom left hand corner of the interface, and select "save image".
    (as explained here in the help files: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/creativesuite/cs/using/WS91C1E0BD-9600-42b2-8EBE-1E012ED61058. html#WSB0DC278F-B3DF-4a60-88BC-B3D6A852C242 )
    Or are you trying to save an file edited in Photoshop as a DNG?
    For what purpose, exactly? A TIFF, PSD or PSB file can have a raw file, saved as a Smart Object (to allow later reprocessing in Camera Raw) and all the pixel/vector editing layers intact.
    If saved with maximize compatibility, it can be opened in Lightroom for cataloging, and editing, if needed.

  • Error in DNG files from LR 3.2 using RW2 raw files?

    I'm using DNG Profile Editor to generate appropriate profiles for infra-red images produced by converted Canon 5d and Panasonic G1 cameras.
    In the case of the 5d this works fine and I've generated good profiles.  However, with the G1 I get an error when trying to open the DNG files in DNG Profile Editor that the files are not valid DNG color files.  I've produced DNG files from the original RW2 raw files in LR 3.2 both at time of import and using export command -- in both cases although the files are the right size (~13mb) they have dimensions of 0x0 pixels -- I'm assuming this is causing the error in Profile Editor?.  When I carry out identical operations with CR2 files from the 5d I get DNG files with the correct pixel dimensions (5616x3744).
    Has anyone else seen this problem? -- is it a known issue? -- is there a work-around? 
    Thanks for your help!
    John.

    Are you sure you changed the compatibility options correctly? The issue is that the G1 DNG images in the default 5.4 compatibility are using a newer DNG version not supported by the current public version of the DNG Profile Editor. That's why you need to choose the older "4.6" compatibility option, then Export the DNG again.
