Nikon Camera Raw & JPEG

I have had LR since it's inception - however because of Adobe's resistance to using the JPG in the RAW files and applying the in camera se3ttings - I have not used it. I have since signed up for the Cloud Services and LR is once again on the desktop - I thought I would attempt to try it again, figuring after 5 versions Adobe might get a clue?
So I ask again - all the work I have in adjusting my incamera settings to the "exact" profiles I need - is there a way for LR5 to use the in RAW JPG and in camera settings?
Some have asked int he past why I need these...its actually very simple - as a photo journalist, I shoot and send to my publisher without edits. Yes, I can shoot RAW+JPG, but editors and publishers are asking for raw files now and sometimes I need to make lighting tweaks before sending - so...having the ability to use my profiles (that I have spent years working with) - I vertually have to start all over if I have edits to make?

In which case they will not see what you had dialled in as the in-camera settings unless they also use the manufacturer's converter.
This is a totally bogus "issue": no converters respect manufacturer's in-camera settings apart from the manufacturer's converters, or - maybe - those using the manufacturer's SDK (Photodirector being the only one I know of that uses Canon and Nikon SDKs, and it isn't a great converter - and I don't believe it respects camera settings anyway), so whatever you think you're denying your publisher by Lr not using the camera's settings, you're wrong - they're missing nothing.
What you're demanding isn't possible, because even Lr could read that you had (say) "NR 5", or whatever other in camera setting had an apparent analogue in Lr, the "5" would mean different things to the manufacturer and Adobe; and the algorithm that the setting relates to would be different in the camera/manufacturer's converter, and in Lr.
DJ and Jim are right on the money: you're very wide of the mark in your understanding of how converters work.
is there a way for LR5 to use the in RAW JPG and in camera settings?
No. Not in Lightroom, not in Capture One, not in Photo Ninja, not in ACDSee Pro 6, not in any commercially-available converter unless it comes from the camera maker.
Fundamental, basic stuff.

  • Reading Nikon camera Raw files

    I use Photoshop CS5.  My camera is a Nikon D610.  Is there a plug in that I can add so that I can read the Nikon camera Raw files?

    Thank you. I have a Nikon D3200 and hope it works for this Camera too
    Not necessarily. The answer is different for every single camera. It also depends on which version of Photoshop you're running.
    The D3200 was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw 7.1 which is compatible with CS6 and later (not CS5)

  • Nikon camera RAW will not open in PS CS3 on Win 8

    I have photoshop CS3 extended ver 10 and Elements 6.  I installed both on a new PC with windows 8.  PS will not open my RAW files taken with my Nikon D40X although Elements will.  PS opens tiff and jpeg.  I went to Adobe updates and tried to install ACR 4.6 (Camera raw 8bi.)  The Error message for bothe the opening RAW files and installing the update is, "Could not complete your request because it is not the right type of document." I uninstalled PS and Elements and reinstalled just PS.  Same problems. I transfer the RAW files from my camera to computer by copying them through a card reader. 
    Thanks for any help.

    PS and PSE each have a different place to put the  .8bi file, so manually do the updated according to the instructions for each product on this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4040
    Re-installing PS or PSE will revert the ACR plug-in for that software back to the oldest version that originally came with that version of software so you’ll need to update using the contents of the ZIP file, again.
    You can do a Help / About Plug-in… / Camera Raw… in PSE and PS to see what version you have installed in each.  Plug-ins are scanned at startup, so you’ll want to restart each product after doing the manual install.

  • Nikon D60 RAW + JPEG

    I have a Nikon D60 which stores the image as a RAW + JPEG. When I import the photos in iPhoto there are always double because there is the RAW version and the JPEG version. Is there a work around for it, so there is only the RAW version which is imported, some scripts maybe?

    Yes, set your Camera to shoot only Raw or only jpeg.

  • Yosemite Photos not importing Nikon D40 RAW+JPEG

    I tried to import RAW+JPEG photo sets from an SD card of a Nikon D40 and my first impression was that the photos were imported, they appeared on the Last Import album but then I noticed these issues:
    1. I was not able to edit the photo
    2. I was not able to select the RAW file to edit it
    3. When tried to import from Facebook, the Finder interface was not able to located the imported photo even though it appear on Photos app
    I thought that the issue was related to the SD card so I connected the D40 via USB and imported again. Nothing different happen, the same 3 issues.
    My workaround was this:
    1. Insert the SD Card in the slot
    2. Open Finder
    3. Navigate through the folders to locate the NEF file (RAW file)
    4. Copy the file to the Desktop
    4. Open Photos
    5. Import the  NEF file from the Desktop
    Edit was succesful and Facebook was able to upload it.

  • Adobe Camera Raw - JPEGS - Do Not Auto Refresh

    I use Adobe Camera Raw to edit my Jpegs. From my understanding, Jpeg editing in ACR is supposed to be DESTRUCTIVE - I do not see a sidecar XMP file created when I edit JPEGS.
    However, the edits I make to JPEGs in ACR do not show up on the actual JPEG file.
    As an example here are the steps I take.
    1) Right click on a JPEG and say "Open in Camera Raw"
    2) Desaturate the image so that it is totally black and white
    3) Click done - when I do this I notice that the image within the Adobe Bridge Browser is now in Black and White
    4) At this point, I want to verify that the actual image has been converted to Black and White. So I close down Adobe Bridge entirely. Then I navigate to the same directory using Windows Explorer (standard system file browser).
    5) My expectation is to see the same image with my ACR edits (i.e. Black and White). However, the image is still in color.
    I have placed 2 screenshots online at
    http://www.trick-photography.com/acr/Screenshot1.JPG
    (Adobe Bridge after ACR edits)
    and
    http://www.trick-photography.com/acr/Screenshot2.JPG (Windows Explorer)
    As you can see the image in Adobe Bridge is Black-and-White. However the actual image is not altered. I have tried to refresh thumbnails and images in both Adobe Bridge and Windows Explorer and that does not work.
    In order to see my edits, I have to open the image in ACR and save it to a new folder. This takes lots of time, and I do not think this is the right way because JPEG editing is supposed to be DESTRUCTIVE in ACR.

    Guess I have a different understanding. When you make an edit in ACR and click Done the original image is not modified, but the edits are retained. There is a round symbol placed in upper right corner that says the image has been modified, but the thumbnail displays the original image. If you open the image the modified version will display in ACR, and you can choose to open as is or modify further. So far this edit has been non-destructive.
    However, when you make an edit in ACR and click Save Image the original image is modified and saved with new name and location of your choice. The thumbnail displays the modified image. This has been a destructive edit. I think this is the step you are looking for.

  • CS5 open as - camera raw, jpegs, unable to open multiples

    Is there a way to open more than one Jpeg at a time with the "open as- camera raw"
    option?
    thanks

    Another option would be to set up Photoshop to open every JPEG through Camera Raw:
    Edit - Preferences - Camera Raw..., set it to open JPEGs.
    Then drag multiple JPEGs to Photoshop (or open multiples through File - Open).

  • I have CS3 Photoshop and it won't open my Nikon camera raw files.

    I checked the RAW version in Photoshop and it is 4.0, why won't my files open?

    And what camera? Support for specific cameras is tied to specific versions of ACR. An old version of ACR will never open Raw files from a contemporary camera. Refer to this:

  • Raw + JPEG : How do you view only the Camera Raw?

    Hi there,
    Here's my problem.... I started importing many of my pictures (shot Camera Raw + JPEG) using the import window. Using the import window caused both the Camera Raw and the Jpeg to appear side by side in any album. Later on, I accidentally discovered that if I dragged a folder with the Raw + JPEG files into the aperture library, the Jpegs would be hidden from site. However, they would appear when I used the "export masters" command, which is exactly what I want (to see one image, but have the Jpegs hidden). I don't want to confuse and clutter things by having side by side duplicate photos in my albums. Is there any way to go back and retroactively make it so that only the camera raw pictures are displayed in a case of Raw +Jpeg? I don't want to erase the original Jpegs created by the camera either. There must be a way to do this.
    Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi Cliff,
    If you don't mind using Automater Actions, the following link will allow you to separate your .jpeg from your RAW files. I have not personally used/tested it because Aperture does not currently support the Nikon D80 RAW files yet. However, when they do, I will certainly give it a try. I hope this helps! Don

  • Not able to open jpeg in camera RAW

    I am not able to "open in Camera Raw" jpeg files, menu item has dissapeared

    Jim,
    Actually I'd only discovered this feature recently as Bridge was not program of choice - my 7 yr. old system didn't have resources to handle PS and Bridge well simultaneously, having only 512 MB RAM. Was lucky to run Photoshop alone, s_l_o_w_l_y on a P4. This all changed with 4GB RAM and a dual core. What a relief.
    Old system dubbed 'Frankenstein' sits networked in pasture in case of need for XP dependent programs or external bkups which no longer run in Vista without wiping data and reformatting. Fortunately won't need them to thanks to networking the two. Only thing not supported by Camera RAW is .bmp which I'll convert. Files from scans years ago of old photos before understanding formats. Live n' learn.
    Much of the time I use Lightroom in lieu of Bridge, but there are times it comes in handy for quick access. Now that Lightroom 2 works interactively with Photoshop it's made this less necessary, but still have uses for both.
    John~
    You are indeed fortunate Vista is your friend. Must have plenty of RAM to run 64 bit. I on the other hand run 32 and intend to downgrade next fresh install so previous peripheral investments work again. Did not play nicely and Microsoft failed to support their own products, deserving a hall of shame award IMO. Still waiting for MS's next OS, as functional and non functional skip generations with that company.
    Close friend also loves Vista, but couldn't help noticing he runs an XP machine on the side like myself.... hehe just in case for specific needs. I'm sure he wouldn't mind my saying we are both happy for you though. ;^D Whatever works. Each person has different needs as always.

  • Opening image in photoshop automatically launches camera raw?

    When I drag and drop an image into Photoshop, the image is automatically opened in Camera Raw. I don't want this and this didn't happen before. Why is this and where can I turn it off?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Found the solution - Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw… > JPEG and TIFF Handling > JPEG: Disable JPEG support.

  • Nikon Camera Infomation

    Hello.
    Is there any way Lightroom 5 can save the information from my Nikon Cameras RAW file.
    When I open my RAW files in Lightroom 5 all my camera settings are not saved.
    Is there some way around this.
    Regards

    In my opinion, it doesn't make sense to take a single photo through Lightroom first (causing you to lose the in-camera settings) and then Nikon. The only method that makes any sense to me is Nikon software first (so you get its benefits of reading the camera settings) and then Lightroom.
    But I have reached the point where I do everything in Lightroom, that makes the most sense from my point of view.

  • Adobe Camera Raw  for Nikon - generate JPEG with color off

    Hi,
    I am learning Photoshop and Camera RAW. I am using CS2 and ACR 3.7 on Windows XP.
    I have noticed that the JPEG file generated by CAMERA RAW has the color slightly off (towards the bluish direction).
    This is what I did, I started Adobe Bridge, I opened up the Nikon RAW file (from D200) with Camera RAW and then generated the JPEG file without using any AUTO or custom setting (took the As SHOT setting). After the JPEG file is generated, I compared the JPEG file, with the file on Camera RAW window, the color of the pictures don't match up. So what you see on Camera RAW window is not what you get in JPEG. The color shown in the Camera RAW window is warmer than the JPEG file. I used the Widnows default jpeg viewer and the Arcsoft Editor to look at the JPEG file, and confirmed the color of the JPEG file is off from the original RAW filed viewed Camera RAW widnow.
    However, when I opened that same JPEG file (generated by Camera Raw) in Adobe Photoshop, and the original RAW file (without any modification) in Photoshop, the color of the JPEG file matches up the color of the original RAW file only in Photogroup. I am confused now.
    Why the color of the JPEG file (generated by Camera RAW) looks OK on photoshop, but it is off in other viewers (default Windows viewer or ArcSoft Editor). However, when I used PictureProject (supplied by Nikon) to generate the JPEG file from that same original RAW file (without any modification), and I looked at the JPEG file (generated by PictureProject) on Photoshop, Arcsoft Editor, and default Windows viewer, the color matches up to the original RAW file on all viewers. So the problem only happens to the JPEG file generated by Camera Raw. Any idea?
    Thanks,

    When you saved out the JPEG in Camera Raw, what color space did you save it with?

  • Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

    Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

    Hi,
    Which operating system are you running on?
    What makes you think that the raw files are being opened as JPGs?
    Do you shoot RAW+JPG and opening the JPG files bt mistake?
    If you are opening a RAW (NEF) file and it doesn't show the Camera Raw screen but goes straight into the editor then it may be that your screen resolution is too low.
    What is your screen resolution?

  • PSE 9 cannot export camera raw edited files to a jpeg format.  Only available save as formats are photoshop and tiff.

    In PSE 9  I am currently unable to save files that have been edited in camera raw as jpeg files.  When I try to export the file using 'save as'  the only listed options are versions of photoshop file formats and tiff - jpeg is not listed.  I did not have this problem previously when using Nikon D3000 camera. I now use a Nikon D7100. I have installed the 6.5 Camera Raw update but this has not solved the problem.  I would appreciate any suggestions for resolving this.

    You have a 16-bit image and jpeg is an 8 bit format. You can set the raw converter to export as 8 bit by using the pulldown menu below the preview area, or you can just go to Image>Mode>8 bits/channel in the editor.
