Missing features in Camera Raw 8.1

I have just purchased and installed Photoshop CC. It should come shipped with a fully loaded Camera Raw 8.1 but mine is missing the Advanced healing brush and Upright tool. Despite 3 hours on online chat and the telephone with Adobe support none of 3 different agents could come up with a reason ar a solution to the problem. Does anyone out there have any ideas?

Did you do a check for updates?
From within photoshop cc, Help>Updates
If you go to Help>System Info from within photoshop cc, what version of camera raw does it list?

  • Filmstrip feature in camera raw 9.0

    I'm using Photoshop 6 extended in a windows 8.1 environment.  I updated to camera raw 9.0.  I'm trying to use the panorama feature and selected a number of images in bridge and opened them in camera raw.  the filmstrip feature at the left side of the camera raw screen did not open.  the selected images appeared on the left side of the camera raw screen under the heading "select all" and "synchronize".  how do I get the filmstrip feature to show?

    The Filmstrip panel is showing in your screenshot.
    Photoshop cs6 can use camera raw 9, but doesn't include any of the new features such as panorama or hdr that photoshop cc and photoshop cc 2014 get.
    The camera raw 9 for photoshop cs6 only gets new camera support, lens profile support, and bug fixes.

  • New highlight and shadow controls missing in my Camera Raw 7.0

    I've just installed and tested CS6 (64) on a Windows 7 machine and PS seems to work as it should.  When opening a RAW file from Bridge Camera Raw 7.0 appears, but appart from the 7.0 name it appears just like the old version. No new controls to be seen!  What can be up with that?

    Hello! you are opening an image that had a been edited under a previous process. Go to the Camera Calibration Tab, and set it to 2012 process.

  • Missing Profiles in Camera Raw 5.5

    I just installed CS4 and updated CR to 5.5.  When I click on camera calibration in CR I am missing profiles that are specific to Nikon D300 and other Nikons such as "Neutral, DX2, etc>  The only profiles are CR 4.3 and 4.4.  I updated another rcomputer and all the profiles are present.

    Assuming you're on Windows like I am:
    You might look and see if you can find the profile for your camera under:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
    Rerun the install again but instead of just double-clicking, right-click and say Run As Administrator to get it going.
    If that doesn't work then go to the ACR update page on Adobe's site and find the link to the Photoshop Elements-specific installer in a ZIP file linked from the main ACR 5.5 Update page, and then run just the camera-profiles installer in that ZIP.  The other part of the PSE instructions talk about manually copying over the ACR plugin, which you apparently don't need to do.

  • New feature in Camera Raw 8.4

    I absolutely LOVE the new before/after comparison feature in ACR 8.4! Just why did this take so long?

    If you're referring to the Process version, you set that in the Camera Calibration tab of ACR.
    Also keep in mind that any images with prior adjustments will show the Process used when they were adjusted.  That can also be changed in that tab.

  • GoPro Camera Raw Lens Profile settings not working for image sequence in Photoshop/AE/Premiere CS6

    Hey Everyone,
    I'm in need of assistance in either Photoshop CS6, After Effects CS6, or Premiere Pro CS6.  I just installed the trials after seeing Russell Brown demo the GoPro Lens Profile correction feature in Camera Raw.  Basically what I'm looking to do is make adjustments (in Adobe Camera Raw) to a series of still images (shot with the time-lapse mode on the GoPro) and then either export those stills through Photoshop or Bridge to a temporary movie file that will be imported into a timeline (with other video clips), or import the JPG files (with Camera Raw settings) directly into After Effects or Premiere as an image sequence.  The latter would be preferable as it'd avoid the extra step of having to render the intermediate/temporary movie file.
    Right now, my current workflow for GoPro time-lapses is:
              - use Bridge CS4 to do basic color correction on the still images
              - save those as TIF files
              - run the TIF files through a custom script to have Hugin 2012.0.0 (open source pano stitcher) remove the fisheye distortion
              - open the new TIF image sequence into QuickTime Player 7 (Pro)
              - export the image sequence as a QuickTime movie file
              - import the movie file into Premiere Elements 10 to place on a timeline with other video clips (as Premiere Elements can't handle the sequence(s) of thousands of still images without crashing)
    If I can go directly from Bridge to a timeline, it'd save a lot of processing time (and it'd be much nicer to preview the images in Bridge without the fisheye distortion)!
    I can prepare the GoPro JPG files through Adobe Camera Raw in Bridge CS6, though when I go to import the JPEG image sequence into Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6, none of the Camera Raw settings are applied.  If I export the Camera Raw files in Bridge CS6 as DNG files (a step I'd really prefer to avoid) and then import the DNG image sequence into After Effects CS6, the Camera Raw settings are applied except for the Lens Profile settings -- I can pick other cameras but not the GoPro lens profiles when the DNG image sequence loads in After Effects.  It also appears that once I open the DNG files in After Effects CS6, I can no longer access the GoPro Lens Profile in Adobe Bridge CS6 -- the list changes to the same list I get in After Effects.  Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't let me import the DNG files at all.  I've also tried to import the JPG files (as well as the converted DNG files) into an image sequence in Photoshop CS6, though it doesn't allow me to do so (the Image Sequence checkbox is grayed out after I apply the Camera Raw settings in Bridge).
    There could be an issue going on with different Camera Raw versions.  I didn't have Premiere Pro CS6 installed during my initial testing, though now do notice that the Camera Raw dialog in Bridge CS6 only lets me choose compatibility up to "Camera Raw 7.1 and later" when I choose to export the files as DNG.  I thought Camera Raw 8.2 was an option there a couple days ago when I only had installed Photoshop CS6 and After Effects CS6 (though am not 100% certain).
    Please let me know if there is some workaround to get the GoPro lens profile Camera Raw corrections applied in an image sequence in one of the Adobe CS6 products (without having to export the files as temporary TIF or JPG files out of Camera Raw).  I'd greatly prefer to shorten my current workflow for these files.  (I just updated the CS6 trials and have tested all three programs again though I still get the same results described above.)
    Does Lightroom 5 have any option to export Camera Raw image sequences as movie files (or any other feature that might help in simplifying my current workflow)?  I can't install the trial right now as it's not compatible with OS X 10.6.8.  I'd consider upgrading OS X if I knew Lightroom 5 would do what I need, though am waiting for any potential color profile issues to be resolved in OS X 10.9.
    I can open the image sequence in Photoshop CS6 if no Camera Raw settings are applied and then use the Lens Correction Filter to apply the GoPro Lens Profile settings, though I really prefer the Camera Raw interface in Bridge for tweaking image settings.  As soon as I apply Camera Raw settings to the first image, Photoshop CS6 grays out the image sequence checkbox.
    If there isn't a way to take Camera Raw files straight from Adobe Bridge to a timeline, I may stick with my current workflow using CS4 and see what I can do to better automate some of the steps as the TIF export in Bridge, fisheye distortion removal in Hugin, and render in QuickTime Player all take quite a while.  I won't mind waiting for all the processing if I can set it and check back on it in later the next day when it's fully complete.  Is there a way to have Adobe ExtendScript execute an external shell command (i.e.: a command I could type into the bash shell in Terminal in OS X)?  If not, is there a way to call/run an ExtendScript script from the command line and pass a parameter to it that my custom script could use?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Can you zip up a few of your GoPro images, upload them to dropbox.com and post a share link, here, so others can experiment with them, or do you mean this issue is global to all camera models?

  • "Upright" Content Awareness in Camera Raw 8 / Photoshop CC

    One of the new features in Camera Raw 8, which will ship with Photoshop CC, is the ability for the software to "see" converging lines in your image and try to straighten things up for you, compensating for perspective issues / wide angle lenses, etc.
    It offers various choices, including an "Automatic" mode that almost always makes distorted things look better without taking the corrections to extremes.  It actually works pretty well.  Some screen grabs to illustrate...
    A photo taken with an extreme wide angle lens in a hotel.
    Off: As shot, with no correction
    Auto:  Balanced perspective correction to make things look better without going to extremes.
    Vertical:  Make all converging lines absolutely vertical, even to the point where the image does not fit within the frame.  Note that the Transform controls can be used to make it fit at the loss of more of the image.  Also note that if it doesn't fit, the image is opened as a layer with transparency in the place where we see the checkered background in the preview, so conceivably you could use Content Aware Fill or cloning to fill it in.
    Some additional examples...
    As shot:
    Auto:
    Horizontal only:
    Vertical Only:
    Vertical with some added distortion to fit the frame:
    Full Horizontal and Vertical:
    Horizontal and Vertical, plus negative scaling so you can easily see how the image has been distorted:
    I toyed with the idea of making the [A] (Auto) my Camera Raw default, and that has merit as it really does improve most photos.  It will, for example, level most horizons (especially water).  But in the end I chose to leave it off and just know it's there so that if I have a troublesome image I can get a quick correction by clicking one of the buttons.
    I'd say this feature is pretty slick.

  • Problems Camera Raw in Trial-PS CC

    Hi folks, just downloaded a trial-version of PS CC and wanted to use the new perspective-straighten-feature of camera raw on a jpg but sadly this feature does not show up. What am I doing wrong? Best, Robert

    ...and suddenly it works without me doing anything :-D
    I is happy...
    Thanx anyway.

  • Camera Raw vs Photoshop

    To what degree should I edit photos using the Camera Raw Editor first before editing in Photoshop, given that all the features in Camera Raw Editor can be duplicated in Photoshop? Are there any MUST features that should always be done first in Raw editing e.g. cropping / white balance / contrast / brightness / exposure / black and white conversion?
    Just to give two examples, Martin Evening's book suggests correcting the white balance first in Raw editor - but other guides I have seen play on the fact that Photoshop has a white, grey and black balance dropper, which gives more options that Raw editor. Another book I looked at suggests that all Black & White conversion should be done in the Raw editor rather than Photoshop, as it is infinitely better!
    Any help on this? I want to get this fundamental basic clear in my mind first before I start learning all the photoshop functions in detail.

    To each his own, I guess. Both have merits. One thing to keep in mind though, if you edit in camera raw the edits stick with the raw file, whereas any edits done in photoshop stick to that file only. But there is nothing that says you can not start with that file next time.
    As far as which is better, that probably depends on which was the last to get an overhaul. Personally I think the two teams compeat to see who is better when updating the software, but really they should be working more in concert to make sure we have the best of both worlds.

  • Can Lightroom import/use Camera Raw saved settings from Photoshop CS2?

    Before getting LR, I used CS2. I would load my CR2 files from my cam into CS2 and Camera Raw would pop up for raw editing. I would edit the photos, but sometimes save the settings to a XMP file. Those files would then be available for any raw photo, i just had to select that setting.
    Is there any way to import those saved settings files into LR? There's just text in them, what about importing the text somewhere? I dunno... I really want to use these settings files in LR!!
    Also, If I change things to a photo in LR, does it have a similar save-the-edit feature like camera raw?
    Thanks!!
    -Ziv

    If you import images with those side car files, you'll get those settings automatically. If you've already imported the images without the side cars somehow, you can put the side cars back and do read metadata from files.

  • Camera Raw 8.7 Beta: black arrow cursor instead of regular white one used

    Bug report: in Camera Raw 8.7 Beta, a black arrow cursor gets used instead of the regular white one.

    Actually, I don't think it's a bug. I reported something similar here, and I was told that it was a new feature, reported in the ACR CC changelog:
    8.7 beta
    Quote:
    Windows HiDPI support:
    When Photoshop CC 2014's option to scale the UI 200% is enabled (Edit > Preferences > Experimental Features), the Camera Raw dialog will also be scaled. Known issues:
    Sometimes the Camera Raw dialog will not scale after the initial Photoshop relaunch to enable the feature. The workaround would be to re-launch Photoshop.
    Some UI flashing/redrawing during interactive operations such as dragging a local adjustment gradient or toggling fullscreen mode.
    Win HiDPI support currently does not work when ACR is hosted within Bridge CC.
    Improve performance on processors with AVX/AVX2 vector instruction support (Intel Sandy Bridge (2011) processors and later; AMD Bulldozer (2011) processors and later).

  • Camera raw slow tiff save

    Camera Raw takes almost 2 seconds to save 103MB tiff file. (I use Photoshop CS6)
    When i save a bunch of tiff files, camera raw uses only half of my CPU and half of my RAM. In addition, I use SSD that writes 530MB/s outside Photoshop. According to these specifications it should save 5 images within one second. But it doesnt. I believe there must be something wrong with the settings? Please help..

    What you're seeing is probably normal - Camera Raw does take a few seconds to process a raw file, even on a powerful system.  It can grow to be longer if you select a lot of features in Camera Raw, such as noise reduction, sharpening, etc.
    And, it's getting slower in general as Camera Raw becomes more feature-rich.
    That reminds me, With version 8.1 I need to do some more benchmarks and add them to this thread:

  • What version of Camera Raw does PSE 10 use?

    PSE 9 (which I have) uses 6.5.  I am told the version that Photoshop uses has a selective application brush, which 6.5 does not have.  Perhaps PSE 10's converter has this feature?

    No pse 10 (camera raw 6.7) still has the same basic features as camera raw 6.5 in pse 9.

  • Nikon D700 vignetting correction vs. camera raw lens corrections

    The Nikon D700 has a menu item for correcting lens vignetting. I'm wondering should I rely on just that setting or use the vignetting correction feature in Camera Raw or both? Looking for some feedback/advice on this. Thanks.

    I have not used vignette control in the D700, but my understanding is it only applies to the in camera processed JPG and TIFF images and not to the NEF.  If you had this set in the camera it probably would also apply to NEF files processed with Nikon Capture NX2, but not Camera RAW. 

  • Canon 60D files can't be opened in Bridge (CS4 version); Camera Raw 6.6 has key features missing

    I am a Mac user (latest OS) and had been using Camera Raw from Bridge CS4 (part of my Elements 8 bundle) to edit my raw pictures from Canon RebelXTi. I upgraded to a 60D, downloaded the pertinent Camera Raw plug-in, but my raw files still wouldn't open in Bridge. I purchased Elements 10, thinking that would solve all problems, but apparently Bridge and Camera Raw are no longer part of the package! I downloaded the latest Camera Raw patch for Elements 10 (6.6), and I can now open raw files from Photoshop, but the Camera Raw version is not full featured and Bridge still can't open my 60D files. How can I get the full version of Camera Raw back AND have my 60D files opened? I deleted Elements 8, but not Bridge, and I can still open raw files from my Rebel in the earlier full version of Camera Raw. When I check in Elements 10 preferences, only Camera Raw 6.6 shows up, so that should be correct. Any ideas?

    The full-featured ACR with Elements loophole has been closed in the newer Mac Elements, I believe.   Us PC folks never had Bridge with Elements or haven’t for many versions, already , so have already been limited in RAW processing with Elements.  Adobe finally “fixed” the Mac version, too, I think.
    For full-featured ACR and Bridge you’re supposed to pay for Photoshop.  Perhaps Lightroom, that is half the cost of PS, and has all the adjustments of full-ACR and you could still link PSE as a final editor step of ACR-type adjustments aren’t enough.
    An alternative is to convert your CR2 files to DNGs and then they’ll open in older versions of ACR, like the one that came with PSE 8, assuming you can still install that.
