Editing Mark iii files in Camera Raw

I am running ACR 4.1 on Mac 10.4.8, with Photoshop CS3. When I go to edit a RAW file, shot with a Canon Mark iii, in Photoshop, I first select it in Photo Mechanic and hit edit, but it takes me straight to Photoshop, instead of launching the Camera Raw editing window.
Is this a problem with Camera Raw or Photoshop? Or should I be asking the Photo Mechanic people?
Thanks.

Suzy,
Are you shooting raw+jpeg? If so, maybe Photo Mechanic is set up to send the JPEG to Photoshop, rather than the raw file? Check in your Preferences->Launching tab. The section near the bottom that says "When in RAW+JPEG mode, editing a photo will:" and make sure "Edit the RAW photo" is checked...
Good luck!

  • I edited a .nef file in Camera Raw and PSE 11 saved it as a .xmp file.  I cannot open it now.

    I edited a .nef file in Camera Raw and PSE 11 saved it as a .xmp file.  I cannot open it now.
    I am not sure if this is an issue but Windows does not recognize the .xmp file and give it an icon with the photo's picture.  On a related note, when I edited some .nef files and Windows saved it as .dng file, it too, like the .xmp file, Windows does not recognize the .dng file and give it an icon with the photo's picture.
    Do I need to download something to create this icon?

    PSE didn't save your file as an .xmp file. The .xmp file is not the image--that's still the .nef. The xmp file is what adobe calls a 'sidecar' file, just a record of the settings you used in the raw converter. As long as it's in the same place as the image, when you open the nef in ACR again, it will open where you left off, with the settings you chose.
    If you want to save as, you have two choices:
    1. Click the Open button in the raw converter window and save in the image format of your choice.
    2. Use the Save button in the raw converter to create a separate DNG file, which still must be opened in the raw converter and converted to an image format for use in other programs.

  • Can only open some JPEG files in Camera Raw through Bridge CS3

    I'm running Bridge CS3 version 2.0.0.975. I always edit my JPEG files through Camera Raw in Bridge CS3. I only have to Right-Click on the file and select "Open in Camera Raw...". However, I've come into a situation where some jpg files will not open this way; the option is not even there.
    I have made sure to tick the box in preferences under Behavior "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and also tick the box under Thumbnails -> Performance and File Handling "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF Files.
    These files were originally 16bit Grayscale TIFF files, but I changed them to RGB 8bit JPEG files.
    Also, I know the program works because I navigate to an older photo I worked which is a JPEG and the "Open in Camera Raw..." option is there when I Right-Click, but then I navigate back to the image I want to edit, and the option is not there.
    Here are links to my screenshots of what I'm talking about. Both images in the last two screenshots are JPEG:

    When I open Photoshop CS3, then go File -> Open As and change the Format Type to "Camera Raw", the JPEG files vanish and I can only see the TIF files. When I open them, it doesn't open in Camera Raw, but rather opens like a normal file would.
    That's a fundamental problem right there, and a clue in all this.  You should be able to see JPEGs in the Open As Camera Raw dialog.
    What happens if you type in the name?
    I'm almost convinced you have a file named .jpg but with a different image format inside.  Can you put one of these files online for others to try to open?

  • Best Way to Open Files in Camera Raw Hosted by CS3?

    Hello. I can no longer open Camera Raw in Bridge, only in CS3. I have read posts regarding this problem. If I cannot get Camera Raw (4.2) working in bridge soon, what would be the most efficient way to edit 900 DNG files in Camera Raw hosted by CS3. I really need to process these files for a client in 2 days, so I really do not have too much time to install and re-install software. I am afraid I may create a bigger problem. Thanks a lot.
    Francis Valentine

    Francis,
    First, make sure you are running Bridge 2.1.0.100. If not, update ASAP.
    Go to "About Plug-in" in the Help menu of Photoshop and verify that you are running ACR 4.2 and that only one copy of ACR is present. You cannot have more than one.
    Purge the Cache for each offending folder through the Tools menu in Bridge, not in Bridge Preferences.
    Those are the only tips I can offer, as I don't do Windows. Hope the Windows users jump in.

    Any updates for the mark III

    If your using pse 10 then you'll have to wait for camera raw 6.7 to come out of beta.
    In the meantime you could download the 6.7 dng converter and convert your mark III files to
    dng copies which will then open in photoshop elements:

  • Can't open files in Camera Raw while in Bridge CS6

    05/30/2014
    Believe this issue/problem happened after automatic update from Adobe (but can't be sure).
    Have always uploaded files from camera into Bridge then do some editing by opening JPEG and RAW (NEF) files in Camera Raw from Bridge. 
    Now, "Open in Camera Raw" is greyed out and I am unable to find a way to open files with Camera Raw from inside Bridge CS6.  This seemed to happen suddenly and without any new software or applications being added to computer.  All other apps/software working well.
    Have tried various fixes found on Adobe community discussions without success.  Problem now ongoing for over a week +.
    Am able to open files in Photoshop with no problem but want to be able to do some quick edits using Camera Raw opening files from Bridge CS6. 
    I'm using Bridge CS6 Version 5.0.2.4.  (as part of Adobe Creative Suite 6).  Updater states I have most current version of Bridge installed. 
    I'm using an iMac computer with Intel Core i7 processor
    OS X 10.8.5
    Have found others with this same or very similar problems on forums but either can't understand patches/directions or unable to complete instructions on my computer.
    for example see:  Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
    From that link/discussion, one finds this "solution": 
    After you update to Camera Raw 8.4, Bridge CS6 in Mac OS doesn't display image metadata or allow you to edit images in Camera Raw.
    To the top 
    Manually install the Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in.
    Exit Adobe Bridge.
    Download the file below.
    Locate and double-click the downloaded file to decompress it. The resulting file is Camera Raw.plugin.
    Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder.
    Open the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS6/File Formats folder.
    IMPORTANT: Navigate to the root Library folder on your hard disk, not the Library folder under your user folder.
    Copy the Camera Raw.plugin from step 3 into the File Formats folder.
    IMPORTANT: This new file overwrites the file already in this folder. It's important that only one Camera Raw.plugin file is in this folder.
    Open Adobe Bridge.
    Camera Raw.plugin.zip
    Mac OS Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in for manual installation 
    However, when I try the above, I have these issues:
    1.  When I double click on the downloaded file, my computer opens PhotoShop and an error message is displayed that states "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."  (I suspect this may mean my computer has automatically decompressed the file, but I am not certain of that).
    2.  Not completely certain I know how to "Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder" as suggested in step 4. above (OK, I'm new to Mac; long-time PC user….)
    3.  When I am in "Finder" and click on "GO" while holding down "Option" key, I find "Library".  within that, I can find "Library/Application Support/Adobe" but there is no "Plug-Ins" folder within the "Adobe" subfolder. 
    4.  Not sure how to tell if I am in the "root Library" on my hard disk vs. "Library under my user folder".  (Again, new to Mac….)
    I have NOT yet tried doing an "Uninstall" and then Re-installing the whole Adobe Creative Suite 6 and would like to avoid that if possible. 
    Would absolutely LOVE it if Adobe would simply push an update that would fix this problem or if someone would explain to me how I could restore the earlier version that worked perfectly for me. 
    Any help, suggestions (in very basic, simple terms that any idiot new to the world of Macintosh can understand) would be appreciated.  Very frustrated with Adobe at the moment. 
    Mostly have liked the switch to Mac, but with this and my photo workflow coming to a screeching halt, having second thoughts.  (But I suppose Adobe update for PC may cause problems as well.)
    Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

    Literally minutes after I posted the above, I figured this out myself and now I'm a happy camper and things are back to normal!
    Here was my error/issue:  as a new Mac user, I was not negotiating/finding files on my hard drive correctly. 
    In case there are others out there with this same issue (and as dense as I apparently am ):
    Here is what I did that resulted in a fix:
    First Steps:
    1. Quit/close Bridge
    2. As noted in post above, go to this link to download Camera Raw Plugin file:
      Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
    Link to get to download is near end of instructions, but I will attempt to insert that link to download here:
    Camera Raw.plugin.zip
    3.  Once file has been downloaded, find it by using "Finder" Click on "Finder" and look on list of options on left side of Finder window to find "Downloads".  On my computer, when clicking on "Finder" these options appear in the list at the left:
    All My Files
    Airdrop
    Applications
    Desktop
    Documents
    Downloads
    Movies
    Music
    Pictures
    4.  Download you just did should be at or near the top of your downloads list and should be named as "Camera Raw.plugin"  and will be 83.5 MB in size
    5.  I right-clicked (two fingers on touchpad) to bring up drop down options and selected "Copy 'Camera Raw.plugin'" from that list to copy file.
    Now, you have copied the plug in that will fix this issue.  The second set of steps below will walk you through how to replace the file that is on your hard drive with this plug in file that you have copied.
    Second set of steps (and this is where, as a new Mac user, I was confused initially)
    1. Again, click on "Finder" on your Mac
    2.  On top of screen, find "GO" and click on that.  (You should see "Finder" in the upper right corner of your screen, then "File, Edit, View, GO, Window, Help"  Click on the GO
    3.  In drop down menu that appears, click on "Computer" 
    4.  Then, double click on "Macintosh HD" to open your hard drive
    5.  Next, double click on "Library" folder to open that.
    6.  Next, click on "Application Support" folder to open that.
    7.  Then, double click on "Adobe" folder to open that.
    8.  Then, double click  on "Plug Ins" folder to open that
    9.  Now, double click on "CS6" to open that folder.
    10.  Finally, double click on the "File Formats" folder that appears.
    11.  NOW, you should see this: 
    12.  Right click (two finger press if using a touch pad) to open window with options.  Select "Paste Item" by clicking on that option. 
    13.  You will be prompted with an option to keep existing file OR replace the file.  Choose "Replace" to past the new "Camera Raw.plugin" file to this folder. 
    Finally, if you now go back and open Bridge CS6, you should be good to go. 
    Hope that helps someone out there. 
    Hopefully future updates will from Adobe will be better. 

  • P65+ RAW files with camera RAW - Not yet

    Folks,
    I'm just wondering if I'm alone here cos I can't find any mention anywhere online. Just had a shoot come in froma photographer (I'm in an ad' agency and we get all types of files from various photographers) shot on a P65+ back. The RAW TIFs are about 55MB each and when I bring them into to Photoshop or Lightroom to process the image to photoshop for retouch, it shows the four sensors from the camera back.You can just see it at this size, (client confiedential prodcut shoot I've had to blank out)
    A close up shows the centre of the four sensors...
    My workaround is to go back to CaptureOne and process the files to DNG, then bring them into Lightroom, but my DNGs become 110MB, twice the size the original RAW.
    I know it's a fairly new digital back, but surely I'm not alone with this problem? Cos that would be really lonely ;-)

    Correct...as far as I know, Phase still needs to get certain info out to Adobe in order to address the 4 quadrants. As I understand it, there are actually 4 "pipelines" of data being pulled off the chip. Think of them as arrayed data streams...none of them is gonna match "exactly" so Phase tucks calibration data in the file. Camera Raw can (as far as I know) read the data from a P 45+ so I don't think it's a question of if, but one of when...it didn't make the 5.4 update, maybe it'll make the next one (I don't actually know).
    However, depending on the camera in use, you may indeed want to do the tiff > DNG conversion to take advantage of the Lens Correction capabilities of Capture One. I use a Phase 645 with Phase lenses that benefit from the DNG conversion.

  • Cannot open PSD or TIFF files in Camera Raw

    I made a picture in HRD Pro, and i want to work on it. I saved it as a .psd and also as a .tif, but I cannot open nor the .psd, nor the .tif in Camera Raw? If I save it as a .Jpg I already lose quality..?
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    PSD files in Camera Raw:
    1.— Stay the heck away from Bridge!
    2.— Instead of right-clicking on anything, go to Photoshop's File menu and Select the Open menu item.
    In the dialog box that opens, find your PSD file, select it, then go down to the bottom of the box and select Camera Raw in the dropdown menu next to Format:
    TIFF files in Camera Raw:
    Just make sure to enable TIFF support in Camera Raw Preferences, then open it like you open any JPEG or raw file:

  • Why are the jpgs that are generated in my camera better than the ones i create from the nef file in camera raw?

    i shoot raw+ jpg in camera, for some reason the jpgs that come from my camera (nikon D300) always seem better than the jpgs i create
    from the nef files in camera raw. i am saving at the highest quality. the jpgs from the camera seem to have more detail in highlights
    better color more vibrant, sharper. could my camera be doing some enhancements to the jpgs before processing?

    I had similar thoughts back when I first started shooting raw. Really, it's just a matter of editing to your personal taste.
    Yes, that camera applies lots of presets before creating the jpeg, as Trevor.Dennis mentioned. Also, as he said, you can far surpass native jpegs with raw.
    If you need it more vibrant, make it so. If you need to bring down the highlights, do so. Need sharpening? Apply some.
    Here is one of my edits that I made a tutorial of: Sunrise Raw File Edit - Adobe Lightroom - Landscape Photography - YouTube. It is one of my less dramatic edits, but still a good one.
    I don't want to clutter this thread with links, but if you take a look at my Facebook page, I put a lot of before and afters up in January and February. A Google search for Benjamin Root Photography will bring it up.
    I shoot in raw, and highly recommend it.
    I'll leave you with a nice NEF RAW file before and after:
    BTW, D300 is a nice camera, I've used it...

  • Problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW

    I have a new problem with Photoshop CS6.  If I open a file using Camera RAW, and process it as usual, CS6 doesn't want to save it the way it used to.  I don't know if I changed something by accident or not. 
    Here's what happens now: After opening from ACR to CS6 and completinhg all of my work, I choose "Save as..."  The save as window opens showing the file name and format.  The default format seems to be .PSD.  I use the drop down to select .jpg.  The file saves normally as a .jpg.  When I go to close the image from, I get a new prompt asking, "Save changes to Adobe Photoshop document DSC_xxxx.NEF before closing?
    I looked up at the file name in the bar above the work space and noticed that it does NOT change from "DSC_xxxx.NEF" to "DSC_xxxx.jpg" after I have saved the file as a .jpg,in my webesite  but it always used to do that.  This adds a few extra steps when closing a document and it really slows me down.
    In fact, I wouldn't swear to this, but I think it used to save to .jpg by default, without me specifying this.
    I don't see a setting in the preferences for what to use as the default file format for saving, so I don't know where to change it back.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

    When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw which shipped with Photoshop - in other words you reverted to an older version of Camera Raw which does not support the D5100.
