I use RAW files from a Canon 1d Mark 4 and a 1dX. When I open the images they briefly look like the preview thumbnail and then suddenly lose about 1 stop of light, lose sharpness and turn slightly green. Please help

I have used Aperture since it was launched and have for the last 4 years , only shot RAW . I have not encountered this problem before , but it is ruining my photography and would I therefore love some help please .

William , thank you. I feel that the loss of half to one stop of exposure is the easiest issue to remedy. How do I fix the green tinge and the loss of sharpness ? I assume I merely use Aperture or a plug-in to re-sharpen the photos and adjust the colour balance back to the originals . Is there a fast way of doing this in bulk , as I have a project with several thousand files ?
By the way...I sort of understand that HTP can change the colour range and the exposure ( I think !! ) , but why does it soften the sharpness ?

I am having some huge problems with my colorspace settings. Every time I upload my raw files from my Canon 5D mark II or 6D the pics are perfect in color. That includes the back of my camera, the pic viewer on my macbook pro, and previews. They even look normal when I first open them in photoshop. I will edit, save, and then realize once i've sent it to myself to test the color is WAY off. This only happens in photoshop. I've read some forums and have tried different things, but it seems to be making it worse. PLEASE HELP! Even viewing the saved image on the mac's pic viewer is way off once i've edited in photoshop. I am having to adjust all my colors by emailing myself to test. Its just getting ridiculous.

Check the color space in camera raw, the options are in the link at the bottom of the dialog box. Then when saving make sure you save it to the srgb color space when sending to others. Not all programs understand color space and or will default to srgb. That won't necessarily mean it will be accurate, but it will put it in the ballpark. Using save for web will use the srgb color space.

Adobe Camera Raw in CS3 is having problems with the RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark II

Adobe Bridge will import the CS2 raw files from the camera card in m Canon 5D Mark II but it will not create thumbnails nor will it convert them to DNG. I want to update the raw reading software but the update page indicates that it only updates into CS4. Will I have to upgrade to CS4 before I can import from my new camera?
ML

The dng converter does indeed work but it adds an extra step to the workflow. Raw files from my Canon 40D are exported and converted to dng in Bridge in one step. Now I must add the extra step of using dng converter. Can I upgrade Adobe Bridge's raw capacity so that I can import from my new camera in the same efficient way? I would prefer to do this without buying CS4.
thank you -- ML

Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?
Error message that it does not support cr. file

Which version of Lightroom?
As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar...

What exactly happens when you try to open raw files from Canon 5D Mark III in PS CS6. Do you get any error message? An error screenshot would help.
Make sure your PS CS6 is up-to-date from Help > Updates.
Restart the machine and retry.

Why is it suddenly impossible to import raw files from my canon 1ds mark III? I work with a mac 5. Nothing has been changed in the settings...

I've been working for 2 years with Lightroom and importing pictures from my canon 1ds mark III
Suddenly it doesn't work. Can somebody explain this or help me to change something
so I can import my photos???

When Im trying to import photos Lightroom says it not all import results are possible.
As DJ suggests, that's probably not the exact wording. Can we have that, please?
Still need your OS and Lightroom version too.

RAW files from my Canon 7D Mark II camera do not show thumbnails when stored on my iMac computer even though I have Photoshop CC 14.2 and Camera RAW 8.7

How do i resolve this problem? TIFF files show the thumbnails just fine, just not the RAW files. My old Canon 7D was fine with RAW files showing thumbnails also.

Which version of mac os x are you using?
They show here in photoshop 14.2.1 in the open dialog as well as in finder on mac os x 10.10
I believe the operating system provides the thumbnails and not photoshop.

Why are my raw files from my Canon 5D Mark III dim in Lightroom 4.3?

I am brand new to Lightroom, still reviewing various basic instruction videos, however I am adept in Photoshop CS5 and CS6. I have been able to import and move a file of jpegs but as I shoot jpeg/raw combo, the raw files were left behind in the original file. I can now bring them up, but they are dim and cannot appear to do anything w/them. I would like to move them to the file where I put the accompanying jpegs, but am having no success in finding an answer on how to do this. Nothing seems to activite to let me do this. Along w/this, I generally tend to work straight from camera raw files, the jpegs are generally not used, thus when LR encourages me to work on the jpegs, I'm not interested. I wish to process my raw files and only move to PS6 if I need to do some more intensive work. Can anyone offer a suggestion?

Here's my guess, based upon your description.
When the RAW photos are "dim", you are in the Import Dialog box, and the default operation of the Import is to not let you import a photo if it has been previously imported.
If that's the case, then you have misunderstood a basic operation of Lightroom. You import your photos once, and from then on, you access them via the Library Module, not the Import dialog. So, go to the Library Module and see if your RAWs are present or not.
Side comment: your workflow seems to be import then move. This is unneccessary, creating two steps for you when one will suffice. When you do the import, you also tell LR the destination where the photos should wind up (it's on the right hand side of the Import dialog box), and LR will do the import and the move in one step.

What software is needed to read camera raw files from a Canon 5d mark III in elements 9?

Which camera raw software version do I need to down load in order to read mark 3 raw files in elements 9? Thank you for any help.

The camera requires at least Camera Raw 6.7. The latest version that is supported in Elements 9 is version 6.5. So, aside from upgrading to a newer version of Photoshop Elements, your alternative is to download and use the free DNG converter from Adobe. What operating system are you using?

How do I edit Raw files from a Canon 5D using Elements 9?

How do I edit Raw files from a Canon 5D mark 111 using Elements 9?

The 5D mk III is supported in PSE 10 with ACR 6.7 update.
You could download and install the latest DNG converter and use that to convert the CR2 files to DNG files (still RAW format). Then you can edit the DNG files using PSE 9.

Hope that Helps.

I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT Now I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT Now I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

See this faq:
FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
That will explain why each new camera model uses its own raw format. (.CR2 does not indicate a format, only a Canon family of formats).
The first link tells you what version of camera raw is needed for your camera : https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
You need ACR 7.4
The second link tells you which ACR versions are supported by Elements versions Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
PSE9 supports version 6.5
Further down on that paper, you get links to download the free Adobe DNGconverter for Mac or Win.
This standalone software can batch convert a whole folder of raw files to the DNG raw file format that your present PSE9 can read.
Otherwise, you would have to upgrade to version 10 or later.

You have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 9,10 or 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
