Exporting raw files - Average speed.

I am presently exporting several hundred raw files, created by an Olympus E300, to jpg. The raw file size are 13.5 mb each and the time per file is averaging 42 seconds. Is this good /bad what should I expect?????
Win XP sp3 Pentium 4 with 3GB ram. My HDD has lots of room only about 50% full.

The batch process has just completed the time was 24.81 sec per image. The only other use on the computer was browsing on Safari. Would that have a sigificant effect??
My raw files are on an internal 250 GB HDD and the jpegs are being saved to the regular internal 80 GB HDD. My processor uses Hyper Threading not a Dual or Quad core. Tomorrow I will do a test with Bibble and SilkyPix.
Maybe I should try saving the jpegs to the secondary HDD instead of the main HDD which runs the OS and programs. They are only there temporary untill I burn to DVD or upload to the web.

Another way of exporting Raw files directly to ACR

Hello,
I just stumbled on this workaround for Aperture´s failure to export RAW-files directly to Adobe Camera Raw converter.
I use iView Mediapro to keep my digital files archived. iView is able to catalogue every photograph of my Aperture library. In fact apertures library shows up in iView as a folder called "Aperture Library.aplibrary". All images apear in iView´s browser. I can now select any RAW file and right click to choose an application to open it. I choose ACR and it opens like a breese.

Wauhh, thas great! Would you know if it works that you add new metatags in Iview (inside the AP Project) and exporting them back to AP??

Export RAW files from iPad to NAS

Hello everyone,
I've been a while wondering if it is possible to quit personal computers for my Photo Workflow, that involves RAW file formats. The ideal workflow should be like this:
Take a photo in RAW+JPEG.
Import the photo in an iPad Air 2 with iOS 8 via SD Card Adapter.
Work with the image with the existing RAW editing apps, Like Photogene 4 or SnapSeed.
Save the original RAW and edited stuff in a Synology NAS.
The problem is the fourth step. It's impossible for me to extract them intact from iPad to NAS. I had recently a false positive when I found FileBrowser, which is a Finder-like app that let's you take RAWs from an album and copy to a network storage. BUT surprise! The filesize of that files is EXACTLY the same of the JPGs, around 2,5 MB, so these .CR2 files have been altered.

The following claims to transfer RAW. Not sure that it will work in the circumstance you describe but may be something to check out: http://www.photosync-app.com/photosync/en/features.html#cluster_1

I am having trouble exporting .raw files to an external storage device. Even though I export "original" they end up as jpeg files. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I am having trouble exporting .raw files from my Mac Book Air to an external storage device. Even though I am exporting as "original" they are being exported as jpegs. Anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

Using the "original" setting is the correct way to do it. Select on of the photos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option. That will take you to the file inside the library via the Finder. Confirm that what you see if the raw file.
If it is then try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Exporting RAW files to PS5 from Lightroom

when exporting RAW files from lightroom 3, version 3.6, to photoshop 5, (version 12.04, ACR 6.6), raw files go directly to editor, not camera raw editor. This began only after I went from trial version to full version, before it went to RAW editor. If loading directly into PS RAW files do go to RAW editor as they should, but not from LIghtroom.
Please advise

The way it is working now is the way it is supposed to. I don't know why ACR was opening before. You do your adjustments in Lightroom, and when you send the image to Photoshop ACR is used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments. If you want to be able to go back to ACR then you need to open the image as a smart object.

Option-drag to export RAW files

Option dragging files to a folder to export RAW files out of iPhoto, pretty standard thing, I've done it for years.
All of a sudden today it's not working. Cursor shows a white circle slash instead of the green + when I try to drag the files out. It will let me do it without the option key, but that's only for jpg. I need the RAW files out of iPhoto!
Why?
Help!

Rebooting the computer fixed it.

Exporting RAW files to desktop corrupts them

I just purchased a new macmini intel 2 core duo 2 gHZ upgraded to 2 GB Ram and I run Leopard 10.5.7 with iPhoto 09
The store where I purchased my macmini transferred all the contents from my old macmini core 2 duo 1.83 gHZ hard disc to my new macmini's hard disc.
Here's the problem: When I export a RAW file from iPhoto to my desktop ( export as "Original") the RAW file is often corrupted by a horizontal band or stripe of color across the image. The strange thing is that it does not have this stripe or band across it every time. It does this about half the time. I experimented by exporting the same RAW file to my desktop a few times. In about 2 cases out of 5 the exported RAW file displays the colored stripe or band. If I export as Jpeg or Tiff it does not happen.
The band is always in a different place. Here are 2 screenshots I took of what it looks like:

Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards

OK..I contacted Apple Support here i Holland by phone and they ran through a whole trouble shooting program with me. Then they downloaded RAW files from a site that has RAW files for all types of cameras including the camera I use Panasonic DMC L1
They then did imported the RAW files into their Macmini at Apple support and found that they experience the exact same issues as I reported on my own Macmini. So the problem is not with my particular Macmini but somewhere in the iPhoto 09 software. They will now send these findings to Apple in Ireland and other Apple centres that address these issues. Then a solution will be sought and probably some kind of update to correct it will be issued. Hopefully this issue will be gone in SnowLeopard.

Export raw file out of lightroom

Is there a way to export a raw file out of LR if who want to work on
in other app? I wanted to use DoX on some I-Stock photos and wanted just
to export.

This sounds like you are trying to replicate an Aperture function - exporting the raw files to get them out of its dungeon or vault.
You might not need to export the raw files in LR. If you drag to the Mac Desktop, you are duplicating the raw file, which may well be what you want to achieve. Alternatively why not just Cmd-R to show them in Finder and then edit them in DoX (what?). The other alternative is to do your LR adjustments and then use export to generate TIF or JPG files for further editing. But without knowing what DoX is, it's hard to say what the right way may be.

Export RAW file from iPhoto to Aperture

I want to start using Aperture 2 for my photo editing, so I need to import a number of RAW photos that are currently stored in iPhoto. This seems like it should be a simple enough process, but the different methods I have attempted have only resulted in a JPG version of the photo being imported.
I have spent quite a bit of time perusing previous posts and haven't been able to find an answer, so any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

I don't think there is any reason to export the photos from iPhoto first. Aperture can browse the iPhoto library and will allow you to drag and drop the original files.
In Aperture:
1. Pull down File > Show iPhoto Browser.
2. Find the photos you want, highlight them by Shift+clicking several in a row or Command+clicking discontinuous photos. Make sure the extension on the file corresponds to the type of RAW file your camera shoots (.CR2 for Canon, .NEF for Nikon, etc).
3. Drag and drop the selected files to the Library icon in the Projects list. This will create a new project called "Untitled Project" that contains your photos.
Regards,
Michael

Exporting raw files out of Aperture

How does one go about getting the raw files back out of aperture? I know that when opening the external editor it opens up in Tiff or PDS. I want to get my original Raw file out to being working with out the processing of the raw file in Aperture. Can any one help me?

Option 1. File>Export>Export Master... (also available by Right-clicking/Control-clicking on the selected thumbnails or by pressing Command-Shift-S)
Option 2. File>Relocate Master... and start storing the images as referenced files outside the Library.
Option 3. Use the search box in the top right of the forum pages...

Nobody else is experiencing this????

Quality Issue Exporting RAW files in Lightroom 3

I have LR 3.6 and am experiencing quality degridation and tone alterations when exporting an edited RAW file to any folder in LR3 and then viewing the export in its new location in LR3. I am on a MAC and when I view the export in the file FINDER window, I see the image I expect to see in the LR viewer, all edits in tact!. But when viewed in lr it looks horrible! It is granular, the tone is altered and the color is over saturated. This seems to only happen with RAW files, exported to any format (Jpeg, Tiff, PSD, DNG etc) and/or color space (sRGB, Adobe RGB, ProPhoto RGB). VERY FRUSTRATING.!! Anyone found a solution to this problem?
Edited RAW Image : Exported as JPG / sRGB:
Thanx!

Correct. I am importing the exported photo back into LR for viewing as part of my workflow. It moves from a "Work in progess Fiie" to a "Processed Image File". And this new import into LR looks incorrect? Keep in mind I am editing a RAW image and then converting it to JPEG, TIFF or other universal format. Usually JPEG. But this problem occurs regardless of the format I choose. However, viewing it in the MAC file folder it looks fine. That however does not help me if I want to set up a print job or slide show through Lightroom. Any thoughts....

Export Raw Files and keep XMP data

Hi,
I can export files from Lightroom to a folder and select original and I will get the raw file along with the xmp file. I therefore have any adjustments I made there with it. If I , however , export files to a folder and select original and chose Burn Files to Disc, the xmp files dont end up on the disc so I effectively lose all the work I have done to them in light room. Is there a way to fix this. Of course I can just export to a folder and then burn from there , but , I really like the way lightroom just burns disc after disc with no hassle. Burning discs from a folder is a hassle.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help in advance !

Hi, Gary. Have you tried converting to DNG, with xmp data embedded in it, then export & burn this?

Export RAW-files and its thumbnails from iPhoto

Hi all,
My Canon EOS 5D makes JPEG+RAW at the same time, which is great. Normally I do not need the RAW files, I work with JPEG in iPhoto 6 (OS X 10.4.11). I only want to keep the RAW-files as "negative". With Automator I want to export the RAW-files automatically to a separate folder which I will then backup to a external HD.
Automator should do the following:
1. Copy all RAW-files (extension is .CR2) to a folder on my HD.
2. Delete al RAW-files and its thumbnails from iPhoto
I have done some tests with Automator, but I did not succeed. Can some body help me?
