IMac compatible DSLR cameras

Does anyone know which DSLR cameras are compatible with iMac?

As Roger says, any camera should work perfectly well. No software is needed, so no need to install anything from any disc supplied with the camera. Just connect the USB cable supplied with the camera, and switch on the camera. The camera's memory card will appear as a USB drive on the desktop. You can then drag and drop your pictures to your desired location, or open iPhoto and select to import them into there.
Image Capture can also be used to assist you with the import if you wish.
Make sure you eject the drive before switching off the camera or disconnecting the USB cable or you may damage the file structure on the memory card and render it unusable.

I am unable to get my iMac to recognize my Canon DSLR camera.

I have a Canon EOS 50D DSLR Camera that I can't get my Mac to recognize when I connect the camera to the computer. Is there a driver that I can download for this? Anybody else have this issue?

Or with a card reader or just the camera attached, the camera's memory card can appear as an external drive on the desktop; and you can drag/drop copies from there into a folder on the desktop for use outside of any one application, or burn the folder to a DVD or CD.
I use a great, free third-party image editing software so I do not use iPhoto.
While it is OK, and has fair features, the content in iPhoto can
be more difficult to find later; the application has hiding places.
Good luck & happy computing!

Best dslr camera for iPhoto

I'm looking to get a dslr camera and would like to know which is most compatible with iPhoto ? Does anyone have any suggestions?

There is no one that is "most" compatible. Standard advice: Stick to the Major brands. If you're thinking of shooting Raw make sure you're camera is supported. And for which ones are... We need to know your version of iphoto and the OS.
For instance: here's the current list...

For my money: best thing to do with DSLR is to handle it. Pick it up, hold it, put it down a few times. The size of your hand and the grip of the camera are not always a match.

Is there a way to use the Tablet Remote to control a Sony Alpha DSLR Camera?

I own a Sony Tablet and love the ability to use it as a Remote Control. I also own a Sony Alpha DSLR...yet I can't get the remote control to control the Camera. Has anyone figured out how to do this yet? It's a little large, but would be amazing if the camera had DLNA and could automatically publish a photo on the tablet right after I took the pick...with the Tablet remote!!!
Thanks for any advice.

Hello Damon,
What is the exact model # of Sony Alpha DSLR Camera?
You can try “Learning from remote” feature if your DSLR camera is remote control capable.
Refer the following link for instructions:
http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1023514
Camera should be DLNA server capable in order to access pictures from it using DLNA application in the tablet.
If my post answers your question, please mark it as an "Accepted Solution."

Photos not showing up in photo stream after being imported to iPhoto from a DSLR camera?

I have a DSLR camera and for the longest time, I would import photos from a shoot to iPhoto and after about 20 minutes they would have all shown up in my photo stream on my Mac and my iPhone. But recently, the photos will not show up on either photo stream and trying to share a new photo stream with myself never works. Help?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at some of the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

I redownloaded my Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw will not accept my RAW files nor will the Adobe Bridge display the picture view of these files. A message displays saying it doesn't support this camera. I have a Nikon 5100 DSLR Camera. It always displayed

I redownloaded my Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw will not accept my RAW files nor will the Adobe Bridge display the picture view of these files. A message displays saying it doesn't support this camera. I have a Nikon 5100 DSLR Camera. It always displayed them in the past. How can I get it to display these photos in Bridge and open them in RAW?

My iMac screen just came on white, I can hear it running in the background

My iMac was in sleep mode, click in on, screen was snowy color and stripes. Turned it off and back on again. Got white screen with Apple logo, then nothing, sounds like it is running in the background. Help.

I just had a similar experience with my iMac - late 2009. Ty unplugging it and let it sit for a while.
Heavy duty vacuum popped circuit breaker of my office. All off. Lot's of hard drives, printers and the iMac.
On reboot - white screen - no Apple logo though. Just let it sit and nothing. So restarted over and over and let sit to boot for even an hour. Never came back. So I went to Apple store and bought a iMac 5k. Came home - before unboxing - restarted the iMac again - white screen. OK, SO I setup my new iMac. Moved the old iMac to floor, unplugged and went about my business and figured I would take old iMac apart in a couple of days.
So about 4 days later, I plugged the iMac in - and it booted like nothing happened! ***? It was working fine. I did wipe the drive and reinstalled Yosemite. Still all fine.
Weird one for me.

List of compatible video cameras and codecs for iMovie 1.2.2 (iOS)?

Is there any official or unofficial list of compatible video cameras and video formats/codes published by anyone?
By the way, I successfully managed to import .mov (motion jpeg) from Panasonic DMC-FT1 to iMovie for iOS5. The AVCHD setting (.mts) does not work however.

Not that I've ever found. I tried to research on the Apple site before I bought it but found nothing.
I will say that SD cards are pretty universally compatible and I've not had an issue plugging htem into my iPad. So if your camera has an SD card, you should be good to go, and you can sync without running down the battery on your camera (I honestly never sync my camera with its cable since it does little more than kill the battery, I always do it just with the card, but everyone likes doing things differently)
What might be more helpful, search your camera manufacturer's information. It might be easier to find your camera company saying it's compatible iwth the CCK than it is to find a list of all cameras. Or maybe you can post your camera model here and maybe someone else has the same model and can tell you.

Connection to a DSLR camera.

I own a nice iPod touch, great device! I would like to be able to connect it to my DSLR camera in order to retrieve somes pictures and send them by email. I usually capture in RAW+JPEG. Ideally I would send the JPEG, but I guess sometime the RAW. If that could work, it will be the perfect combo, I wouldn't need to bring all the time my MacBook Pro for short trip. I guess an adapter that can read directly SDHC and compact flash would be better for transfer time. Also to prevent people to use this as an extension to the internal memory, The adapter would only allow copy the files. Any plan for such device?
Cheers,
Lingot

I'd love to see that kinda functionality too... but I don't see it coming any time soon, especially from Apple. Maybe a 3rd party piece of hardware from Nikon or Canon. Would be great to use the iPod to backup photos from your camera and send them via email.

Can I convert DNG files which were saved as compatible to Camera Raw 6.6 and 7.1 to ones only compatible with Camera Raw 6.6 which would reduce their size from 60 MB to 20MB?

I have been converting my Fuji RAF files to DNG with Lightroom preferences set to make them compatible to Camera Raw 6.6 resulting in approximately 60 MB files. I found that by changing the compatibility to 7.1 only the files are only about 20 MB. Is there any way to reconvert the files to only be compatible with 7.1 and make them about 40 MB smaller? I have not been embedding the original files in either case.

Ah, it might ignore files that are already dng. It might work if you uncheck "Only convert Raw files" but I haven't tried that myself. If it doesn't work that way, try using dng converter and replacing the original (make a backup first) with the new dng file created by the converter. Lightroom should just start using the new dng if it has the same name and is in the same location.

CS5.1 support for new DSLR cameras (D600)

I would like to understand the business decission (if there is any) why Adobe decided that for new DSLR cameras support they will update only the Camera Raw version for the current release CS6 and not respecting the legacy for the n-1 release (updating the Camera raw for CS5.1). This is a serious concern and disapointment. Does it means that each time Adrobe has a new release , if i chnage the DLSR i am FORCED to upgrade and pay 190$ eventhus I do not need the new release features?

Ah, thanks guys - I am very very happy to eat crow on that one!
The actual point of my post was to make me feel better, and boy did it work! I did not expect any actual relief, so actually now the post is twice is good as I thought - I was actually wrong!
Anyway, I might mention (I didn't get into all the details) that I actually canceled the order for the d800e (the "e" version was backordered until just recently), as the d600 was just announced as my order was about to process.
So actually I am in the same bad situation as the previous poster, but maybe now I will go back to the d800 - saving a $450 upgrade to CS6 actually saves half the difference in price between the cameras.
And sorry for the rant on the 2 analogies. It was not a troll. I vaguely remember in my research that Lightbox comes with ACR, is that true? Lightbox doesn't come with CS5.5 MC, but I wonder if i were to buy it ($99??) that'll give me the latest ACR that supports the d600, and problem solved. I assume once i have the latest ACR it'll let me open straight into PS and not make me go through Lightbox and then PS?
Anyway, if that is correct, that would be a much better answer to the original poster (and it saves him $100). Other good answers (if this Lightbox hack won't work), might be:
"It's an incredible amount of work to support nearly every camera and lens ever made in ACR, so even though it comes free with your software, you don't get free updates once your software moves to a new version."
or
"The d600 began shipping nearly immediately upon announcement, and it takes a while to update the software." (perhaps the responder didn't realize it, but this was the situation with the d600.)
But the car-story and "if you can afford a new camera, you can afford to pay adobe" were pretty tragic answers - someone needed to call you on it, or you would have only served to upset the original poster.
Ha, PEBKAC, that is pretty good. Not very easy to pronounce, though.
I must say my last dozen interactions with adobe have all been negative, except this one, so maybe things are turning a new leaf. You're lucky I didn't get into the story of when my HD crashed, and I had to call Adobe to re-activate my old CS4 PS. It's awesome getting literally laughed at by the activation help desk person. (I had owned the software for 3 years at that point, and had only ever activated it once.) ...who just assumed I was lying. "here now let me tell you how to deactivate the old version" "the HD is dead, it ain't going to happen" "well let me show you again, because you need to do that..."
Oops, I did get into that story, didn't I?
Best,

Can LabVIEW process images in RAW format? Can LabVIEW handle images in the multimegapixel formats produced by some of the current DSLR cameras (e.g. 5000x3500 pixels)?

Can LabVIEW process images in RAW format? Can LabVIEW handle images in the multimegapixel formats produced by some of the current DSLR cameras (e.g. 5000x3500 pixels)?
Can LabVIEW be programmed to remotely acquire images from a commercial DSLR camera with DirectShow capability? e.g. Canon Rebel T2i.

1) So RAW files have a multitude of possible file extensions / formats, and it depends on which of these extensions you use. If the image can fit in memory, it can be brought into LabVIEW. An image of that size should be able to come into LabVIEW. Are you considering using NI-Vision to do this? You would look into the VI called "IMAQ ReadFile." There are a certain set of standard formats that can be read.
2) If a camera is DirectShow capable, and there are USB drivers available to access that camera through a Windows machine, then you should be able to bring that camera up in NI's software such as LabVIEW.

Iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

You actually need to give information to get help - just stating an abstract problems (which is most certainly not a problem at all) gives the volunteers hearer nothing to work with to help you
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What exactly is the problem (iPhoto does support the resolution of your camera so that is NOT a problem)? what exactly are you doing? What error messages do you get? why do you incorrectly think that iPhoto does not support full resolution?
At this time your question is like my car won't start - why not? Could be anything from you did not put the key jun to being out of gas to having the engine stolen - no way to tell anything - except that the problem you claim is not true (at least in my example I would know that the car did not start)
