Lightroom with Phase One files?

I was wondering if anyone is using LR with Phase One files?
I use a P45 Phase One back and really would prefer to use Lightroom (over Capture One), but I also need to use the lens correction files for the way I shoot (wide angle lenses / technical cameras etc.)..... I know LR can now do this, but it only works with dng files; everything I've read tells me that the C1 conversion to dng is not a good conversion.
Does anyone have a good workflow for this? I suppose I could always just make a few basic corrections in C1 and then export a 16 bit Tiff to worrk on in LR, but I'd rather work with raw files as much as possible?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Alan.

Yes, I agree, it is fairly simple (now that I've investigated further).
LR does a very neat job of this...... you can export the Capture One file (TIF) as a dng and set LR to automaticaly add the new dng to the same folder (and have it stacked), then you can add the flat field correction and that comes in stacked also, so now all three files are together.
One thing that seems a bit odd is that the Capture One TIF file (IIQL) is 55.9 Mb from my P45, but the Lightroom dng is 64.9Mb? Why is the dng larger?
Thanks,
Alan.

Phase One files shot with C1 4 will not open with ACR

Hi, files shot with Capture One 4 will not open with ACR nor DNG. Extension is set to .TIF but only the small preview opens. If I shoot with Capture One 3.7 - no problem. Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Gunter

Hi Gunter.
You would need to upload the file to your own web server or to a file sharing site like Yousendit.com and then post a link to the file here in the Forum.

Tethered shoot with Phase One IQ260?

Can I go tethered with a Phase One IQ260 with lightroom 5.7 ?

Here is a list of the currently supported cameras for tethered shooting. The camera you mentioned is not on the list.
Tethered camera support in Lightroom

Phase One + files stuck in "Loading..."

I'm using Lightroom 1.3 for processing my Phase P25+ files. All seems to work well at first, but at some point when I switch from image to image the "Loading..." status never changes and the image does not fully load (remains "blurry") . When the "Loading..." message is displayed I have to control over the development settings as well.
The only way to stop this is to restart Lightroom. Once I do that everything is fine until it starts again, usually only after a few minutes.
What's going on?
Thanks,
jeff

I do have CS3 installed. I don't use Bridge at all.
Not sure what you're asking me to do.
I'm not using Develop mode for browsing. But, I do switch from picture to picture in Develop mode when I'm working on the images... as you should be able to.
I actually do all my reviewing and deleting in iView because LR is painfully slow in comparison (and I'm on a 8 Core Mac Pro w/ 8GB RAM). So, once everything is in LR I'm only "developing."

Phase one files with 4.1

so now phase files are officially supported.....but i still get a line through the files...same as before...phase C1 shows no problem....so phase says it is adobe's problem......well mostly it is my problem...driving me nuts....anyone? please!

Make sure you also purge the camera raw cache, it is located in the CR preferences. And yes, I do believe that it could still be the culprit since the CR cache stores the most recently opened images. There could still be bad data in there from the last version.
If that doesnt do it, then you might want to send Thomas a file if you havent already done so. I gave him one of mine (P25) several months ago during the prerelease but there may be some other issue with your Phase calibration data.

How can i move lightroom with all my files onto another laptop?

Phase One .capture files

Hello
According to the Camera Raw readme file Phase One files should be supported. But I cannot get this to work. I have a bunch of .capture files shot with a P25 - but neither Bridge, ACR 4.4.1 or Lightroom 1.4.1 knows what to do with these files.
What's wrong? Aren't the .capture files supported after all?
(I'm on a Mac Pro, Leopard, CS3)

Peter, as Thomas said, even with the .TIF extension they are indeed raw files. Ive never had any issues with either P25 or now P25+ flies opening in CR or LR.
Perhaps a bit more info would be helpful are you seeing any previews in Bridge or just a generic file icon? Have you tried purging the cache in Bridge? Any error messages popping up?
Ive never shot tethered so I suppose there could be something happening in C1 but it would seem unlikely that it would alter the original raw file.

Phase One RAW file support needed

Full support for Phase One files would be nice.
If you plug in a CF card containing Phase One RAW files, Lightroom pretends to import them but it only imports the thumbnails. The work around is to download the CF card files to the hard drive and then ask Lightroom to import the folder. Once this folder is in Lightroom you can then ask for DNG conversion. It's a bit of a pain to say the least. I expect it's Phase Ones fault for chosing .tif as the extension for it's RAW files.
Any better workarounds out there?
Damien.
PS: I love Lightroom and welcome further development.

maybe i was doing something wrong, but i had no problem working with p20 and p45 raw files in lightroom. i did not import them from a cf card, though, as they were already on a hard drive.

Difficultly creating Phase One lens profiles

Has anyone successfully created lens profiles with Phase One backs, specifically the P65+? I'm having two major issues:
1. file format. I tried converting to DNG via Capture One 6 and Lightroom 3.3--both generated files that LPC could not read. I see the image previews at the bottom center of LPC, but the higher res version in the center of the application doesn't display. When I click "Generate Profiles" it says "Detect corners failed because file reading errors occurred" My current workaround is to convert to TIF instead, which works fine but takes a lot more time & disk space.
2. memory. When I use TIFs, I get the error "Detect corners failed because out of memory..." It suggests using fewer photos, so I've whittled it down to 3, which I believe is the minimum, but I still get the error almost immediately--it appears to be failing on just one photo. I'm running Win 7 x64 and I have 6GB of physical RAM, 154GB free on my OS disk and 92GB free on the disk that contains the imagery.
Any ideas? Thanks!

In further testing, I've found that the file format issue is momentarily solved by closing and restarting the application. It tends to come back as soon as I perform a couple other operations, though.
I also found that the memory limitation affects P45+ images as well--it says out of memory even if I only select 3 images--but using the P65+ in Sensor+ mode (switching from 60MP to 15MP) does result in DNGs that lens profile creator can handle (and then I can select a whole lot of them without a memory issue).

Phase One .IIQ/.TIF

HI everyone,
I'm having a problem with Phase One .IIQ and .TIF raws from a H20 back importing into LIghtroom 2.6. When I import using the .IIQ suffix the import stops with an error and no images are imported. When I switched the suffix to .TIF, images import but only as thumbnails.
The H20 is a supported camera according to ACR documentation.
I am able to import .IIQ files from a Phase One P25+ back just fine.
I would be grateful for any help.
Best regards
G.A.

Which specific back are you using?
Given that you have a ColorChecker chart, have you considered building a custom profile using the DNG Profile Editor?

Phase One color cast in Bridge

Hi all:
I know there are a lot of photographers in this forum, so I'm hoping one you can help/enlighten me.
We just received IIQ images from a photography, shot on a Phase One P45.
When previewing in Bridge CS5, I'm seeing a strong blue cast over the images.
This is the first time we've ever gotten IIQ files that previewed in Bridge with such a heavy cast, and I'm wondering if something wasn't processed right before the files were delivered to us? I have a general knowledge of RAW, but not sure what happens to them before they get delivered. From what I read, it's possible that the photos should have gone through Capture One color management software before being handed to us as processed IIQ files?
Is that the case? Has anyone ever experience this in Bridge and if so, can it be "fix"?
Thanks,
Lisa

Has anyone ever experience this in Bridge and if so, can it be "fix"?
Without having experience with Capture One or Phase One files I know that Adobe Camera Raw 6.x (comes with CS5) does support the IIQ files from Phase One P45 so Bridge should have no trouble in viewing those files.
First put your mouse on that file and with right click menu choose purge cache for selection and see if this brings some light. If not Open the file in Camera Raw (double click or right mouse click choose open in Camera Raw. This should open the file in ACR and see if you still have the color cast and if the white balance is set to normal expected values.
If still a color cast either contact the photographer or set the color temperature values to your wishes

PSE-7 won't allow opening of more than one file at a time.

I can only open one file at a time in PSE-7. I just downloaded the trial upgrade from PSE-6. If I try to open more than one file, PSE crashes and windows wants to send a report to Microsoft. Elements works fine with only one file. Anyone got any idea's ?

Try to exit out of Elements 7 and go back in to your Organizer. Open a file and choose to edit it in full edit. Then leave it there and go back to Organizer and choose another picture to go through the same process. Now you should have both pictures showing in your bin at the bottom of the edit screen which you can toggle back and forth to as you edit each. If you want them both in the edit window itself you can you to the Window tab - Image - and choose to tile them or cascade them. Good luck, hope this works.

Phase One Raw File have lines in them (Lightroom 2.1 ACR 5.1)

when importing Phase One P25 raw files, Lightroom is displaying tin lines across the image. those lines are not appearing in any of the Capture one Software 3.7 4.1 or 4.5 I guess ACR is not reading the Digital Back Calibration Data. I am managing thousands of Images in Lightroom and I don't want to move back to Capture one as it is very limited in terms of its meta data management and no spot removal yet.
if I convert the Raw file (IIQ Small or Large) to DNG using Capture one then Lightroom reading the DNG file without the Lines but the file size is 44MB instead of 15MB of the IIQ Small (Phase One Raw Format). obviously duplicating all my images to DNG Quadrupling disk space is not something I want to add to my workflow.
Adobe, can you improve the way you read the Phase One Raw Files?
I use Phase One P25 Digital Back with the latest firmware 3.6 , Windows XP 32 and 64bit and Lightroom 2.1 (this problem appears on all Lightroom Versions including 1.4,2.0,2.1)
I can send to adobe some Raw File Example or assist in any way I can to find a solution.
Please Help!

Following does not alleviate the problem, but it may shed some light on the underlying reason.
Phase One are fooling their customers with the promise of 16bit depth. However, in fact that is only 14 useful bits; the two low order bits *must not* be used, for they represent mainly the pecularities of the hardware.
The following capture is from a P25+ raw image (converted in DNG by the Adobe DNG converter), but only the two low order bits are processed. These should be random on their own, as theoretically they would represent the finest transitions. The two thin vertical lines show the seams between the chips; their location depends on the particular camera copy (I have seen one or two seams, i.e. the sensor is made out of two or three chips, but perhaps there can be more).
The horizontal stripes cause posterization if an extremely underexposed image's brightness gets adjusted; the seams can become visible as thin lines.
The image is in the "native" (landscape) orientation. The orangy rectangle is not part of the image.
