How to import RAW+JPG?

I recently acquired a Canon 30D and am now able to save my images in RAW+JPG format, which gives me the normal RAW (CR2) file and a JPEG file for each capture. This is handy for using the picture styles where the RAW is the normal full capture of colour while the JPEG is processed according to the selected picture style giving, for example, a monochrome image.
When I try to import these from the card the preview displays thumbnails only of the JPEG images but only the CR2 files appear to be imported. However, looking at the folder on disk reveals that the JPEG files have also been imported but are simply not displayed within Lightroom itself.
I could of course work with the JPEG files outside of my Lightroom library but would prefer not to do so. How can I get the JPEG files to become part of the library so that I can work with them in Lightroom?

A search for RAW + JPEG brings up a page load of pertinent entries for me.

Imported RAW+JPG ... how to delete all JPG's?

I wanted to see the difference between raw RAW images and JPG's created within the camera, so I imported all 600 pictures like that (300 RAW, 300 JPEG's). I set RAW as the Master and I see that I can set JPEG as Master afterwards, if I want.
Questions:
1) What is the easiest way to view the JPEG version? The only way I've found is to duplicate the image and then set JPEG as master.
2) How do I go about deleting all (or some) of my 300 JPG images now? Isn't there a "show in Finder"-option so I can delete them like that (rather than navigating the Aperture library file/folder myself, potentially screwing up something) - or how is it supposed to be done?
Thanks.

On Import you should have set "Raw + JPEG Pairs" to "Both - Separate Masters".

You should do all you file maintenance from inside Aperture. It's a Digital Asset Manager, and the files are a very big part of your digital assets.
The filter HUD has a rule accurately titled "File Type". Use it to filter for JPGs. Select them all. Delete them.
If you haven't made any adjustments and still have the images on card or disk, you might consider selected them all, deleting the Masters as well as the versions, and then re-importing. Common practice among raw shooters is to not import the JPG files and let Aperture generate its own (some do, though).
Thanks.
You are welcome. Tips accepted.

Importing raw + jpg, how can I see both?

when my camera is set to Raw + Jpg and i import into LR, the thumbnail I see says it is the raw , how can I see the jpg? Both Raw and jpg images are listed in Finder. thank you

You need to configure the Import preferences so that JPEGs are treated as separate files. See attachment.

How to separate RAW+JPG after import?

Greetings:
Is there a way to separate jpg files from a collection of RAW+JPG images after import? They were imported without checking the "treat raw + jpg files separately" box in preferences. Having worked with them, I would like to simply separate out the jpg sidecar files and quickly post the jpgs.
Is there a way to do this? I've tried changing preferences and re-importing from the combined image folder to another folder, but the resulting jpgs don't show up as files in Finder.
Platform: Mac
Software: Lightroom 4.4
Thanks,
Mike

I'm looking for a solid solution within Lightroom too.
Until that time, maybe http://www.robcole.com/Rob/ProductsAndServices/RawPlusJpegLrPlugin/ can help you?

How to handle RAW+JPG?

Hi guys,
Just downloaded LR4 trial, and there is something I can't quite figure out.
I have a lot of RAW+JPG pictures (shot as RAW+JPG or previously converted from RAW to JPG with other programs), when importing them to Lightroom, I can choose to treat them as the same picture or as separate pictures.
At first glance, they should of cause be treated as the same picture (because they are the same picture), and they do indeed appear as "RAW+JPG" in LR, but how do I:
- View the JPG? (not critical, but it would be nice to be able to compare the JPG with the LR results)
- Add metadata (tags, title, caption, etc.) to the JPG file and not just the RAW file? (I have enabled "write metadata to file")
If treated as separate pictures, they behave as one would expect, but it is not that convenient to have two of the same pictures side-by-side.
- Can I auto-stack RAWs and JPGs?
- Can I write metadata (tags, title, caption, etc.) to the entire stack in one go?
And please don't give me the same answer, I keep reading over and over again, when other people ask the same question: "Why would you have RAW and JPG of the same image?" That is not the question, but I will answer it anyway :-)
1. I need JPG versions of my pictures for e-mail, web, viewing on my TV etc.
2. I REALLY don't want to be dependent on LR in the future. If I have spend hours and hours fine tuning my pictures, and only have them saved as RAW, I would need LR till the day I die. And it doesn't end there, my kids, my grand kids and so on, would also need LR to view the pictures (at lease in the quality I would like them to be viewed).
~Frank

That was also my feeling, that Lightroom's support for such is pretty little.
Because it is not LR's concept.
Frank,
what you could do in order to further make up your mind to which extent LR might suit you:
Use an alternative picture viewer (e.g. Irfanview) to compare JPGs.
Copy your existing JPGs to a folder, but do not import them into LR (that means do not LR have creating pointers to them and records in the catalog-database).
Import your raws into LR (that means you need to have some safe storage space for the image files themselves), and do your developments there. When you think you are ready, export** them as full-sized JPGs, renamed e.g. by a suffix -LR, into your JPG-folders. Do not add such export to your LR catalog.
Use the alternative picture viewer to compare how you did, compared to your camera's auto-conversion.
To further ease your mind regarding dependancy on LR: most of your develop settings can be written back to the raw file's xmp-part (that is a sidecar-file for a proprietary raw format such as Nikon's .NEF or Canon's .CR2, or embedded for a DNG, PSD or TIFF).
This xmp can be read by many other other programs.
So you would have your raws enriched.
Plus you could decide to store your exported JPGs *forever*.
Pretty independant from Lightroom, no?
Should you want to ultimately rely on raw-conversion results, I would go for different software, e.g. DxO.
Cornelia
**exporting means: LR is making use of its records as rendering instructions and writes a completely new file, in the format you specify for this export, e.g. JPG.
LR is a database, that contains records ABOUT images. It reads from them, it writes to their xmp-part if tell it to do so (choice is continuously or upon separate command for selected images), it can write other output, e.g. a PDF working as a slide show, a web gallery, a print, a book.

PSE11: How to import Raw files from Canon Powershot SX60 HS Bridge Camera? [was: Dear Sir,]

I have just purchased a Canon Powershot SX60 HS Bridge Camera. I have Photoshop Elements 11 and I cannot import Raw files. How do I download the latest version of Camera Raw into Elements 11?
T.W. Gasby

With Elements 11 you cannot.
The SX60 HS was first supported in Camera Raw 8.7 which is only compatible with Elements 13 and later.
Options:
Pay to upgrade to Elements 13
Free option: download the Adobe DNG converter, convert all SX60 HS Raw files to DNG format then edit the DNGs in Elements 11

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.

How to import raw files from nikon d750 to snow leopard

I can import raw files from my Nikon d80 to iPhoto on Snow Leopard without having to install Nikon software. However iPhoto won't import raw files from my Nikon d750. Has anyone out there had this problem?.

Mountain Lion is what Lion should have been in my opinion. I used Lion for a week and reverted to Snow Leopard. Another option is to have 2 operating systems installed, each on a different partition. You could then stay with Snow Leopard for most of your work.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.

How to import RAW and JPEG, but see only one image?

This is driving me crazy.
I shoot sometimes RAW and sometimes JPEG on the same memory card. So some pictures have only a JPEG file, others (the ones I shot in RAW) have a RAW+JPEG pair (or at least, Aperture sees it that way when displaying the content of the memory card).
What I want:
- import only once
- for JPEG files, JPEG is imported as master
- for RAW files, RAW only is imported as master
There seems to be no combination of the import settings that lets me do this?!?!?!?
If, under the "RAW+JPEG Pairs" settings I select "RAW files only", all JPEG files DISAPPEAR from the import list. WHY? This setting should be for "RAW+JPEG Pairs" only, it should not affect images that only have a JPEG file. I want to import JPEG files as well, so I select "Both (RAW as master)". Now, in the imported project there are TWO images to deal with, which is not what I want.
Even if I were to import twice, how can I exclude the duplicates?

Please ignore my post. Aperture behaves correctly. I got confused because many pics look alike, but aren't really the same pic. Sorry for the confusion.

How to import RAW + Adobe Camera Raw settings to iPhoto?

Hi folks,
I'm trying to import into iPhoto RAW files (Canon .CR2) that I have adjusted in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR).
The problem is that, iPhoto is not picking up the ACR adjustments that are contained in the side-car .xmp file; it's just showing the RAW file 'as-shot'.
For example, if the RAW file's white balance is off, and I correct it in ACR, then, once imported, iPhoto shows the image with the 'incorrect' white balance, as if I hadn't corrected it at all.
Can anyone confirm if this is the correct behaviour of iPhoto?
Is there any way to have iPhoto take the ACR adjustments into account?
I'd be grateful for your help.
Regards,
Ken.
P.S. I think I have iPhoto '09—it's the immediate predecessor of the very latest version that was released fairly recently.

This is the correct behaviour. iPhoto will understand the RAW file from the camera, but it will not handle ACR adjustments. If you want to deal with the pic in iPhoto, you'll have to render it to an image format first. You can maintain quality by using a lossless format (.tif, lossless jpg).
That may not be ideal. If so, and you need image editing on the ACR file, Lightroom is probably your best bet

How to Import a jpg photo into FCPx and keep 16:9 aspect ratio?

How to import Raw files from the Canon 5D Mark III into PSE12? [was: cr2]

I have Photoshop Elements 12 and I can't import Canon 5D Mark III CR2 files.

Not sure what you mean by view the photos? Are they showing in the camera raw dialog when you choose a CR2 file from the menu in expert mode:
File >> Open
What computer and operating system are you using?
Can you try shooting a couple of new CR2 files and then put them into a folder on your hard drive rather than the external drive. Can you import from that location using the Organizer menu:
File >> Get photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders

LR4 How to view RAW+JPG files?

Hello --
I have been wondering about this for quite some time. I know there is the option to "treat jpg as seperate files" in the library, but i feel it clutters up the library so i tend to avoid this. However, if i treat them as the same, the JPG does get saved into the hard-drives directories, but it isn't visible at all in LR. I understand that this is by design, but what is the point of it then, if there is no way for me to look at the jpg (e.g. for comparison).
so my question: is there a way to see the jpg file, unless i treat it as a seperate file (and hence de facto duplicate the number of images in my library)? what i am looking for, is occasionally being able to view that jpg that has been saved to the directory.
thanks in advance for your reply.
patrick.

i agree with you and understand your point. my problem is that the auto-stacking doesn;t seem to work all the time properly, and i would have in that case to manually go through a rather large set. i am wondering if i may just be best off importing the files as the same and not seperate since this will ensure that the jpg's are at least archived. if i then need to look for one, i can always somehow grab it out of the catalogue. not exactly ideal, but may be adobe eventually will make it easier to access the jpg....

How to import Raw + xmp files

Running OS 10.4.11 and recent 2.1.4 upgrade for Aperture. I successfully imported my images from my Nikon D300 and now have a folder on my desktop with my assistants RAW Canon D20 and D40 images with xmp sidecars.
I have updated all raw upgrades and still cannot see his images to import them out of the folder. Can anyone help me out? Does Aperture not import sidecars or recognize images with sidecars? (I have the do not import duplicates unchecked)

Where did the xmp files come from, ie. what app have they already been in?
What is the file extension?
Can the files be recognised in preview or any other program.
Should not make a difference but have your tried moving the folder to anther location other than the desktop, I have imported many images from the desktop so would doubt this, but need to cover all bases.
Can you drag the folder from the desktop into Aperture?
Have fiels been renamed since coming from the camera?
Can you rename a single file and see if AP sees it?
Took me a few lines but I think I have the answer, given they are from a 20D and 40D are the files Canon sRAW? If so they are not compatible with Aperture!
