Lumix LX3 RAW support - Aperture update 2-10-2010

So I was all excited to see that Aperture would finally support LX3 RAW files, so I took a bunch yesterday and guess what...it doesn't work.
Can someone tell me why the update listed the RAW support for the Lumix LX3 RAW ?

I downloaded your link to the upgrade again, it installed but still doesn't work.
Of course not. As I said above
Are you using Aperture 3 or iPhoto 09?
They're the requirements as made clear here...
You need to be using Aperture 3.
I am using 2.1.4 on OSX 10.6.2
And it will never work with Aperture 2.

HT201071 Nikon D3300 RAW support Aperture...any ideas if/when/how long?!?

Nikon D3300 RAW support Aperture...any ideas if/when/how long?!?

Getting 2 different stories about what is going on would bother me too. I don't know what would take a week to test. If they are overwhelmed with work orders then they should say so.
Using your case #, I would ask for a manager. Be polite but firm. You have waited way too long on this and Apple should give you something for your troubles. There have been instances where people have gotten bags, etc where Apple screwed up. It happens in every company. Make the case that you have been out of a computer all this time.

Poor Panasonic Lumix LX3 RAW color in LR2.5

Hello,
I just bought a Panasonic Lumix LX3. I'm using Lightroom v2.5 to process the RAWs under Mac OS 10.6.2. The color in the LX3 jpegs is very good/accurate, but when I open most RAWs it is taking me a lot of work to get accurate color, especially if there is any blue sky in them, as Lightroom seems to be rendering some colors incorrectly. It's taking me way too much work to get my RAWs to look as good as the jpegs, which pretty much negates the RAW files' greater potential! I have used Lightroom with my Canon 20D and never had this problem. Also, with the LX3's supplied RAW software, SilkyPix, I don't have the RAW color issues. I want to use Lightroom with my LX3's RAWs, but it is very frustrating. Any thoughts or comments would be most helpful.
Thanks,
Greg

I have also had the same color rendering problems with LX3 and LR 2.4-2.6. The JPEG and initial preview looks fine, but the LR raw rendering just doesn't look good.
One solution I tried was to buy a Gretag Macbeth color checker (24 patch) and create a DNG profile for the LX3 using DNG Profile Editor from Adobe. This makes the color rednition significantly better, but the warm color spectrum is still a problem when it comes to high saturated areas.
I still haven't found what I'm looking for...
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David

10.5.7 STILL NO LUMIX G1 RAW SUPPORT

Apple how many times am I going to tell you to add RAW support for Lumix G1

Thanks for your opinion. The Terms of Service are over there on the Right. They describe the aims and purposes of the Boards and you agreed to them when you signed up. I have no doubt that various Apple employees do read these boards from time to time. That said, they do not promise to. Nor do they promise to respond or act on anything here.
The Feedback link
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
will get to the developers. Of course, you may have to face the possibility that Apple will never support the RAW format on your Camera.

RAW Support 3 Update LOCKED ALL My External Drives!

OK, Can't get Aperture 2.1.4 to open or create any Libraries since the RAW 3 Support and iLife 09 update yesterday (came in through Software Update).
Running a PowerMac G5 tower, OSX 10.5.8
The Update worked fine with iPhoto 8.1.1 and I can now open RAW files from my new Canon S90.
I have 8 external FW drives which are now all "Read Only" and the lock is Grayed Out.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks for the response. I decided to try the Bob Timmons approach of shutting everything down for a half hour and then restarting the external drives and then 5 minutes later start the Mac.
This worked!
All of my FW drives now say "Read & Write" and all is back to normal.
However Aperture 2.1.4 still will not recognize CR2 (RAW files) OR JPEGs from the new Canon S90.
iPhoto8.1.1. sees both now.

RAW support for Pentax K3

When will Aperture RAW support be updated for Pentax K3 be added? It's already on Adobe Lightroom....!

I my exeprience, I'd say when it's ready and not a moment sooner.
Lightroom is always pretty quick off the mark with support, but sometimes that carries a quality cost, like happened with the Fuji X100 and X-Trans sensors. Lightroom's support came out first, but Aperture's came out better.
I have a similar frustration having just bought a Sony A7. But I simply shoot raw+JPEG and use the JPEGs until the raw support is ready.
A side benefit of this approach is it makes you get to know the camera settings a little better in order to make the best JPEG.
If I have an emergency and really messed up a shot and need the raw to recover it, I use the raw converter supplied with the camera to make a better conversion in a TIFF and then add that to Aperture.

Aperture update 2.1.3 still no RAW support for Lumix G1

Once again and after posting to Apple development we still have no RAW support for the Panasonic Lumix G1. How much longer Apple...!

RAW support updates are separate from Aperture updates..
Maybe with 10.5.7... or another RAW compatibility update sometime.. hopefuly soon.

New Camera Raw Update doesn't support Aperture 2.1.4?

I just did an OS update for Camera Raw and am now able to read my Canon 550D/T2i RAW files using Preview. However, in my Aperture 2.1.4, I still get "Unsupported Image Format". Does the update not support Aperture 2.1.4 ? I thought Aperture's ability to read RAW files is tied to the OS's ability.

RAW support page is here:
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
Note:
EOS Rebel T2i EF-S / 550D / Kiss X4**
Indicates it requires Aperture 3 or later.

HT3946 LX3 RAW files very dark after updating to Aperture 3.3.2

Since updating to version 3.3.2 my RAW files from my lumix LX3 appear very dark and with a green caste in both thumbnail and full views. My Nikon NEF files are fine. Anybody else had this problem?

Actually, looks like the sliders are greyed out on all settings, manual, Av, and Tv?? This just happened recently and I don't think there was an update. I rebuilt the database already. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

LX3+RAW+APERTURE=NO SUPPORT!

There must be a reason for this, the camera has been out for over a year and still no RAW support for the LX3!
Is it laziness? Conspiracy? Bad blood? Somebody somewhere knows why.
Anyone?

I bought the LX3 more than a year ago, and really enjoy using it. I purchased Aperture at the same time, knowing it was the software I wanted to use, and knowing raw wasn't supported, but expecting it any month now. I shoot everything in JPEG, definitely not my preference.
I am nonplussed that more than a year later, it is still not supported. It is arrogant of Apple, IN THE EXTREME, to allow this to go on for so long, without providing users with information desperately needed to make decisions. Like, should I now fork out the dosh for LR, and go through that lovely steep little learning curve? When can I expect raw support? What are the reasons for this failure to serve their customers adequately? If we had some information, we could make decisions to look after our interests, like our businesses and our livelihoods, instead of just standing in the cold with nothing. If we customers had some information, we could direct our substantial lobbying effort in appropriate directions. Is it Panasonic's failure to publish the specification? I've sent several nastygrams off to Panasonic on this assumption, no response. Similar lack of response from Apple.
I have been using apple products since the very beginning, and am a big fan. But this is really not acceptable behavior. If the problem can't be solved, then it is only common decency to let us know.
A year later, and the long suffering LX3 Aperture users are still waiting.

Lumix DMC - FZ 200 raw support lacking. Is there a work around to access jpeg images

I'm Using Aperture 2.1.4.
I Shot RAW + JPEG on a recent trip using my new Lumix DMC - FZ 200 on a 64 gb sdxc card which seems supported by OSX 10.6.8 - import seemed to be working ok.
Aperture shows only thumbnail with "Unsupported image format".
Files in metadata show as .rw2 - is there a way to see the jpeg version?
How can one request Apple to support this camera? Is there a way to work about this while Apple gets round to providing upate to include the FZ 200 ?

When I use Adobe DNG Convertrer for Lumix FZ28 raw files, only half of them can be read by Aperture.
If you look at the list of supported raw formats: http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
there is a footnote for dng:
Aperture works with most DNG files generated from cameras that support this format and with DNG files generated by the Adobe DNG Converter with the “Convert to Linear Image” option turned off.
That means that I now have to upgrade to A3. I'm a bit nervous and will have to go through my several lobraries and rebuild them and make sure I have back ups of A2 as well as the libraries before I start.
rIght, that precaution is the way to do it - back up everything, and rebuild and test the libraries, while you still have Aperture 2. And if you are using plug-ins upgrade them to the most recent versions.
To be able to use the most recent Aperture 3 update you will have to update your MacOS X as well. Check, if all applications that you need can run on MacOS X 10.8.2; PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

Aperture not reading lumix lx7 raw files

I have installed updated Aperture from App store and it and IPhotos in my GMac5 arent recognising the RAW Panasonic Lumix LX-7 files: it keeps on importing them and then stating that this is an unsupported file type but on the Mac site it is stated that it supports this file and this camera.
What might be going wrong?
This is a new camera and I cannot load any files on to my computer.
cheers
Mark

GMac5
What is your MacOS X version, Mark? And what Aperture version have you upgraded to?
The raw support for LUMIX DMC-LX7*** hast the following footnote:
*** Requires Aperture 3.4 or later.
Aperture 3.4 requires:
OS X Lion 10.7.5
OS X 10.8.2 or later
And to install 10.7.5 you will need:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor

Will Aperture 3.6 eventually provide raw support to Sony a5100

I have an iMac running OS X Maverick 10,9,5, and currently use Aperture 3.5.1 with all of its latest RAW updates. I am considering updating to Yosemite to get Aperture 3.6. I note that so far 3.6 does not provide RAW support to the Sony a5100. Lightroom does have RAW support for this camera, and I can get Lightroom and keep Maverick. However, I like Aperture and would like to continue using it. But will the new version on Yosemite ever get RAW support for my camera? I also see from other posts that many are having problems with both Yosemite and with Aperture 3.6. I would need some reassurance before taking the step to a new OS X. I need some advice about what to do.
Thanks

But will the new version on Yosemite ever get RAW support for my camera?
We cannot tell you this, but any new Raw Support will most likely only be available on Yosemite.
The latest Digital Raw Compatibility Update was only for Yosemite, Aperture 3.6, and iPhoto 9., see: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1777?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
I need some advice about what to do.
Upgrade, but don't burn your bridges. I'd keep a full TimeMachine backup or a bootable clone of your system as it is now, so you can easily revert to the previous version.

Aperture and RAW support with Canon EOS 60D

Got my new Canon EOS 60D yesterday. But Aperture does not support the new RAW photos from the EOS 60D yet.
Anyone with the same problem?
When is Apple updating the RAW support for the 60D in Aperture?

Well, DNGs don't actually contain all the data of the original raw file, so that could be an issue.
As an example, the focus point functionality of Aperture 3.0 doesn't work with files converted to DNG, as the camera-specific information has been stripped from the file by Adobe. I don't know whether the DNG format can actually hold that info or not, but as of today it doesn't.
Apple historically has tended to support the new SLR cameras from Canon and Nikon, so I wouldn't be surprised if support came along shortly. That said, buying a camera the day it's available and expecting immediate support for its raw format is not all that reasonable. The vendors providing raw support don't necessarily have access to pre-release versions of the cameras (in general), so there's going to be some time necessary to develop and QA the support for the new format.
