Kodak DCS PRO SLR/c and SLR/n support!

When are we going to see support for the DCR format RAW images off these very fine Kodak Professional cameras?
Kodak DCS PRO SLR/c
Kodak DCS PRO SLR/n
Kodak DCS PRO SLR/14
Very fustrating to have JUST spent $8k on the SLR/c, a 14megapixel camera, and new powerbook to run it all on, only to be left with "unsupported image".
Even DNG conversions don't open. I'm stuck with TIFFs for now

i think it has something to do with Kodak discontinuing their Dslr range over a year ago.

Cataloging Archive Drives And Can Not Import RAW files from Kodak DCS Pro

Tried with bridge and photoshop and they will not open DCR file
How can I convert this file to a DNG...do I need to go old school and download a older version of camera RAW or go to an old MAC te a os that supports Kodak's DCS host software

There is a separate DNG converter tool from Adobe, whichnyouncan download as freeware.
No idea though if this does support your special raw format.
This is often used to help people with LR3 but newer cameras, which are supported in LR4.x only.
Going for an older camera raw version will not solve anything, since older formats are always readable by newer versions (provided the file is uncorrupted).

No "official" Kodak SLR/c support?

Downloaded lightroom and it works on my SLR/c files, but it's not listed in the official compatibility list:
Kodak
DCS Pro 14n
DCS Pro 14nx
DCS Pro SLR/n
DCS720x
DCS760
EasyShare P712
EasyShare P850
EasyShare P880
The Kodak SLR/n is listed. It's basically the same camera (uses the same CCD.) I'm liking what I see in Lightroom, but not sure I should invest $200 for a product that doesn't support my main camera. Are there any plans to officially support this camera?

I have a DCS Pro 14n and while lightroom does support the .dcr file format, it doesn't in the preview pane on import. When I try to import with preview turned on I can't see previews of native .DCR files, the raw format for my kodak camera. Once the files are in lightroom though they can be seen fine. Another little tid bit. Kodak's Photo Desk is way better than lightroom at removing noise in my pictures..

Camera Raw/Lightroom: Kodak DCS SLR/n/c cameras missing Tone Curve support

Hi
I posted this as a support request here (not sure if that is a correct place) with technical details of my debugging the CameraRaw module. Basically, it appears that Lightroom/ACR do not handle the raw files from Kodak DCS SLR/n, SLR/c and 14n(x) cameras correctly. It appears that Lightroom/ACR skips the tonal expansion curve in these raw files and uses the compressed 10bit raw values (with expansion curve applied properly the raw files are 12bit and a curve itself looks very much like Sony ARW one). I provided all the technical details in that referenced post and it should be really easy to fix so I would appreciate if this is passed onto CameraRaw development team.
Thanks

Adobe has an almost 31-billion-dollar market cap at the moment, so there are likely layers to their intake process, between the users and the engineers. What I've suggested providing allows a first-level person at Adobe to demonstrate the clipping of the Adobe conversion relative to Kodak software, without having to get a Kodak camera and Kodak software nor know how to debug a program. A JPG (converted from the same raw file using Kodak software) provides a Kodak reference image for someone to compare to Adobe processing.
I am another user like yourself, and someone who was a double-major in computer-science and math before Macs and PCs were invented so can appreciate your analysis, and definitely believe what you're saying is occurring, I'm not questioning that, I'm just suggesting providing enough inputs for a customer-advocate-level person, who likely is the one who reads the forums and feedback site, initially, to demonstrate to themselves what is occurring that results in poor image conversions, so that the information can get into the hands of more technical people that do have ways to look at the code and authority procure cameras as needed to test and fix things. A lower-level Adobe employee won't have access to the camera to create their own test images and may reside in a different country on the opposite side of the world from those with a debugger. Even if an engineer did see this thread without it being routed to them via a customer-advocate, if they didn't have a Kodak camera in hand, then it might be too much work at the end of the day or at home at night to start the internal bureaucracy to have one delivered to their office some where in the world, and there might be multiple-levels of sign-off before that occurred, or if they request a loaner from Kodak there could be delays. Once you see something from Eric Chan, then you know an engineer has taken an interest in this thread, and/or the one on the feedback site.
If you are just passing on the information from others and don't have your own camera to produce your own raws, then fine, I was assuming you did have the camera in hand based on the detailed analysis you've provided.

Kodak DCS Camera Manager and the Mac Book

Hi,
I am new to this, so please forgive any errors in this post.
I cannot get my Kodak DCS camera manager software to work with my new Mac Book via the Firewire connection. The camera manager software searches for a camera when run but cannot find the camera I have connected to the Mac Book's Firewire port. I am using a new Firewire Cable. I know the camera is Ok because it works fine on our PC Laptops.
Any other photographers come across this problem? Any help greatfully received.
Thanks.

Hi All,
As an update to this post, I have been in contact with Kodak regarding the problems outlined in this thread. Kodak confirm that the DCS Pro Camera Manager is not compatible with Intel based Mac's. Kodak also confirm that no further development will be undertaken with the software.
I feel this is a very poor show considereing the cost of the DCS Pro14n camera body bought 3 years ago. I also understand that it is still possible to purchase a Pro 14 camera even though Kodak have stopped production.
This means that photographers could purchase a camera which will not offer the camera manager facilities on the latest Apple equipment. Companies such as Kodak should offer some form of contract with their equipment stating that support will be available for a 6 year period from the date of firat release - a resonable lifetime for such equipment.
As a company we have decided, after contacting Kodak, to replace all Kodak equipment we use with another make and we will not make any further purchases from Kodak in any form.
Again, thank you to all who read and replied to the original post.
Regards,
Mike.

I updated to MacBook pro last night and now safari won't open

I updated my MacBook Pro last night and since I did this I can not open Safari. It crashes and sends a report to Apple. Not tech smart enouh to figure it out can anyone give me simple suggestions?

Please elaborate on what exactly you mean by it "won't open".
Do you try to launch it and get an error message from the Finder (for example, something like "This application is damaged and cannot be launched....")? Does an icon for the application ever appear in the Dock when you try to launch it? Does it start to launch and then immediately crashes (Finder will display an "unexpectedly quit" dialog)? Or does it start to launch and never seems to "finish" launching (in other words, it basically hangs and is unresponsive)?
If the application crashes, please post the contents of the crash log here.
Otherwise, if the application seems to be hanging, can you, before attempting to launch it, open the Console.app application (it's in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder), and see if anything is reported when you attempt to launch it? If so, please post it here.

Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same Mac Pro HD?

Has anyone been able to install both Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same dedicated Windows hard drive? I have four HD in my Mac Pro, and one of them is dedicated for Windows (and bootable via Boot Camp). I found the following technical articles about installing Windows XP & Vista on the same hard drive (using two separate partitions) using a VMWare machine as the test system:
http://apcmag.com/howto_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystepguide.htm
http://apcmag.com/howto_dualboot_vista_with_xp__stepbystep_guide_withscreenshots.htm
Has anyone successfully installed Windows XP (32-bit) and Vista 64-bit) on the same NTFS partition?
I already have Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3 installed on my single NTFS hard drive. I am looking for the best way to add the Vista 64-bit installation on the same hard drive.
Any thoughts and advise are appreciated.

Windows has its own list of boot OSs, and default, from msconfig. It will sit and wait for xx-seconds on startup in Windows if you want to boot from an alternate.
As to whether Apple's OS Switcher (aka startup disk bootcamp control panel or tray icon) sees both, I had Windows Home Premium and Ultimate 64, and pretty sure OS X saw both. That was pre-Leopard and before there were 64-bit Apple drivers.
I can't think of any scenerio of wanting to mix 32-bit and 64-bit on the same paritition, you realize you can't install the one over the other and must do a clean install.
When I added a partition out of main partition (I wanted to put search index and page file on their own partition) those partitions aren't seen - are hidden - to Leopard.

How do I use my serial number to find information about my MacBook Pro's Processor and RAM?

So I want to find information about my MacBook Pro's processor and RAM using the serial number because the MacBook no longer works. I remember being able to find this information on the apple website before, maybe by using the coverage checker. Did they take this information out of the coverage checker? Is it no longer possible for a costumer to obtain this information?

Append the last three characters of it to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.
This won't reveal how much RAM it currently has installed.

You don't get the itunes program on your Android devise at all.
You would need to read the directions for your phone to learn how to put music on it.

Logic Pro 7.2 and Tascam FW-1884 Not Working

I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 7.2 and I'm using a Tascam FW-1884 as my audio interface / Control Surface. Everything was working fine in 7.1.1, but now it doesn't work correctly. When I press buttons and faders on the Tascam I see MIDI information changing in Logic, but not in any of the correct places. When I click on the screen controls in Logic the Tascam does reflect the same on the board, but not the other way around? I updates the Tascam Plug-In (.bundle) file, the Control Panel, and even the Firmware. Still does not work. The faders go up on boot-up and down when I quit the program, but that is it. Any help would be greatly appreciated? I'm using a Mac G5, dual 2.7ghz processors, and 2.5 gigs in RAM. My gut is telling me it's something with the upgrade, but maybe others have resolved the problem without reprogramming every control one by one.

Mr. Walden,
I recently switched to Macintosh and am learning to use Garage Band. I have an 1884, as do you, and I plan to invest in Logic Express. Do you have any comments or suggestions concerning the marriage between Logic and the 1884?

My USB port on my Macbook Pro stopped working and i tried the SMC reset and the one closest to the SD port still continues to not work. Is there anything i can do besides bringing it in?

I would do another SMC reset. If nothing changes you should take the computer in to an Apple store for a free diagnostic. You should make an appointment.
