  • Samsung GX-10 and Pentax K10D RAW support?

    I recently bought a Samsung GX-10 thinking it was essentially the same camera as the Pentax K10D (which is it in hardware). However, it appears that the RAW images cannot be read in Aperture or iPhoto, even thought the K10D is listed as supported. The RAW files are .DNG which I thought was some kind of standard. To make matters worse, Samsung doesn't even provide any of it's own Mac software, so I currently have no way to read its RAW files at all. Doesn't anyone know if/when Apple will add support for the GX-10?
    Thanks in advance.

    yeah,, I know about raw data , and yes, wrong or not, the rendition of gx-10 pictures are very "bad"  compared with other softwares and with my eyes, and I think that you can understand when i said "bad" no?, there aren't a wrong or correct in raw color but the people speaks about the wrong o correct colors all the time, i think that you understand when speak about  bad colors, a bad WB , etc.
    I know that i can make my own profile but is not easy, to generate a good profile I need a  Macbeth ColorChecker or something like that for example and precise sources of light (like a tungsten) and taking account about that samsung cameras are "clones" of the pentax ones and that samsung shoots in DNG format (and not a propietary raw format)  seems easy solve the problem about color interpretation of GX-10. With time I will buy a color-checker and try, but would be great a correct interpretaion of the own samsung colors
    PD2: When i know about samsung "adobe-DNG" capacity, i didn't expect have problems with adobe soft and color intrepretation or something like that.
    PD: Sorry , I don't speak english  well, and so I can't express me very well , only basics

  • Installed MAC OS Lion and updated iTunes some Icons in dock bounce and won't lauch

    I install the new Mac OS Lion after I updated the Itunes started to have problems with the icons in the doc bounce and won't launch the program. This is getting fustrating because I do not know what elese to do. It got so back that no program would launch so I had to do a system retore and then it work. There has to be something I am missing.

    Thanks Eric! I had to do a retore because everything came back ok on verifying disk. This happened to me last time when I updated to snow leopard. Now my icons work on my dock now but when I go in application such as iweb and my mac office 2008 it will not launch. I may have to reinstall these programs unless you know what to do.

  • Pentax K110D RAW .PEF Format No Go

    Hi All,
    I bought a Pentax K110D. iPhoto won't read it's RAW .PEF files either, under 10.4.7 or 10.4.8. Pentax does provide management software, but it adds an extra step.
    Do any of you know how to get iPhoto to work with Pentax .PEF RAW files?
    Thank you.
    -D

    -D:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If the Pentax is not supported by OS X then you'll have to use another image management application that does support it's raw format. Only one Pentax camera is listed as supported.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Finder List View and White Border around photo image files (icon preview)

    Hey everyone, just curious if anyone knows how to remove the stripes from list view in the finder window? I tried a method that worked for Leopard but no luck with Snow. And for photos, the icon previews have real thick white borders around them, can these be removed (or at least inverted)? They are so distracting when looking through hundreds of images...
    Thanks,
    Jason

    I just found an app that will get rid of the white borders and preserve the original date in the photo's EXIF data. It is CocoThumbX and can be downloaded from http://www.stalkingwolf.net/software/cocothumbx/.

  • No camera raw jpg previews in finder

    I have two macs with the same OS and one displays jpeg previews of my camera's raw files in the finder and one doesn't. Apparently all the software is up to date and I have "show icon preview" clicked in the finder settings.
    Anyone know where I can change this? Thanks!

  • Finder icon previews slowing finder

    I work with a lot of pdf files, and as finder shows pdf icons as a preview of the first page it can take a long time before the content of a folder stabilises itself, ie: updates all icons with a preview of its content.
    Its particularly frustrating if you are renaming a file, as you have to wait for all the contents within the folder to finish updating otherwise it keeps skipping off the desired file.
    Is there any way of getting the finder to just show the generic icon of a file, rather than the preview? It would speed up the system no end.

    Thumbnails don't slow down the Finder. The problem is in the view style you are using. The bug where you loose your file rename session when the thumbnails draw is a known bug in List View that has been around for a couple OS releases, it has only been made more prominant with the addition of thumbnails in List View in Leopard.
    The solution is either switch to Icon or Column View, or while in List View press Command-J and uncheck the "Show Icon Previews" checkbox. The click the "Use As Defaults" button.
    Hope that helps.

  • Icon Preview on desktop keeps needing to be restarted

    Hello,
    I have a MacBook Pro of only 3 weeks. I have a lot of files showing on my desktop, and I wish to have the icon preview active, otherwise I just see generic file icons for each one.
    So I go to view options and choose Show Icon Preview. Everything is fine. But now, EVERY single time I turn my Mac off and back on, the icon preview no longer works. The Show Icon Preview box is ticked - and I have to untick and tick it again to get the preview to work again. This was rare on my old Mac, whose data is now all on this new one, but now it is happening EVERY single time. Restarting Finder and fixing the view options only works once, and needs to be done over and over again when the Mac starts up.
    Does anyone have a fix or explanation? This is becoming incredibly frustrating, considering how expensive this Mac was, and how new it is. I don't understand why it keeps doing this.
    Thanks,
    Andrew C

  • How do I get Camera Raw for Pentax PEF file to open in Photoshop CS4?

    How do I get Camera Raw in CS4 to recognize Pentax PEF files? I have downloaded and installed the Camera Raw Plug Ins but I still cannot open the file.  I have done this on my older computer but can't seem to get it to work on my new one.

    I just looked that up. You need at least Adobe Camera Raw 8.3 which only Photoshop CS6 and above has.
    Adobe Camera RAW 8.3 include Pentax K-3 support - PentaxForums.com
    So in order to read it in ACR 5.7, you will need to use the free Adobe DNG Converter and convert those Pentax raw files to DNG.

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

    How old is the MacBook Pro?  AirPlay is only supported on 2011 and newer models, due to the requirements it has in hardware for graphics acceleration.

    That wasn't a change in Firefox. It sounds like something is broken in your Firefox installation, or you are misunderstanding the different between the Bookmarks Toolbar and the other Toolbars.
    In the Bookmarks Toolbar the text appears next to the website icon, not below the icon as with the other two Toolbars, and it's not switchable between text and no text as with the other Toolbars. With both the bookmark icon and the Bookmark name missing, something is broken in your installation. You need to do a little troubleshooting.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode] <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    If not, see this: <br />
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes]
    If your problem isn't related to an extension, your bookmarks data base file (places.sqlite) is probably corrupt. <br />
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite <br />
    Be aware that if you delete the "places.sqlite" and similar files, your bookmark website icons won't automatically appear (the JSON backups don't have that icon data) when you restart Firefox and the places.sqlite is rebuilt using the backup data file, but the icons should be saved the first time each bookmark is used for the first time.

  • 10.9.5 with camera raw 5.07 not showing .RW2 and DNG but showing .CR2 previews in finder

    Even with the latest OS and latest camera raw, only my Canon raw image files display proper previews in the finder, and open properly with iPhoto and Photoshop.  .RW2 and .DNG files will not show previews or open with iPhoto, and .RW2 files won't even open in Photoshop without being converted to DNG.  I've combed the support community questions for over a year now, am tech support oriented, and am ready to throw in the towel.  I've had this same problem with previous system versions and camera raw versions, so I know the solution lies with neither of the two. 

    I'm having exactly the same issue and I posted on Adobe's site and dpreview and StackExchange but nobody has the final answer. I can see thumbnail previews in finder with ALL my various Raw files (Olympus OMD EM1, Panasonic GH2 and GH3, and Nikon D5300) just fine but when I use the convert to DNG feature in Lightroom (latest version since I'm on the CC subscription), only the Nikon DNG files display a preview thumb in finder and neither the Oly or Panny DNG files display. The closest I got to an explanation is that, since the m4/3 cameras do their profiling in camera and Adobe doesn't have a profile for them, some of the info isn't converted into the DNG in those systems. The article I read about it was really about Aperture not being able to read the Adobe DNG files but it may also explain why Mac finder can't show preview thumbs.  Aperture 3: Some DNG images display as unsupported - Apple Support
    If there is no way to get preview thumbs in finder with the converted RAW files from my GH3 then I'll forgo converting for now.
    Here is my Nikon DNG
    And my Panny DNG (Oly is the same)
    Panny RAW shows up just fine
    As does the Oly ORF
