Nilon D5000 RAW Files

Unable to import RAW (NEF) images from new Nikon D5000. Using iPhoto 6.0.6 and OS X 10.4.11 and Photoshop Elements 6.
Do I need later iPhoto and newer OS, not to mention a Photoshop Elements upgrade?

For PSE, you need this:

Updates for raw files from Nikon D5000 on a photoshop elements 7 /windows 7 system

I have photoshop elements 7 but it won't open raw files from a nikon D5000 although I've followed the links and updated. It still says it won't open because it's the wrong type of file..I've downloaded a DNG converter but still nothing is happening.

You download and installed the camera raw 5.6 plugin, by following install directions on the following page?
Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 5.6 update
If you have a windows 7 64 bit system, then the Camera Raw.8bi plugin goes in
Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
(the path adobe gives is for a 32 bit windows system)
Also, use the Camera Raw.8bi outside the folder named Win64

Opening Raw Files

How do I open raw files in Photoshop Elements 9 (Nikon D5000 camera)

Hi,
In the editor, what happens when you open the file from the File -> Open menu?
Any error message?
If it is a RAW file, the Camera Raw window should open - after you have made any adjustments there, click on Open Image to then load the image into the editor.

Iphoto 11 can't read my nikon D7000 raw files, why?

I bought the latest Macbook air 13 inches and the Nikon D7000.
I tried to import the raw files (NEF) from the Nikon d7000, but it show can't read the files type, or
unsupported image file. It works fine with my nikon D5000, why?
anyone can help?

Okay, I too purchased D7000 and A3 is not supporting "this new" RAW format (A3 did support my D80).
This is the question: Apple knows very well that camera manufacturers do "upgrade" their format - the same as Apple "updates" their format. This is not new, it's called "continual improvement", isn't it? I am sure that Apple has a "current process" to update A3 to handle format improvements from camera manufacturers. That said, I believe that Apple does have an "expected" date for this update. If they don't, then their business process is lacking and would not be competitive . I don't believe that - I am sure they have a good ol' gnatt chart.
It would be great for Apple, if they would give us an "expected date" for this A3 update. When they don't speak to us, we all wonder if they are listening to their paying customers.

Need help reading raw files!

Help please! Cannot read raw files of my Nikon D5000. Have downloaded Camera Raw 5.3 and followed instruvctions. 5.3 supports the D90 which is supposedly essential the same. Any suggestions?

Try the DNG converter or the DPP software supplied with your camera until ACR 5.4 is finalized, as suggested in the posts.
I have read that there is a way to get the Release Candidate 5.4 installed in PSE 6/7 but you need some skills in understanding computer files.

I must be doing something wrong because none of the Adobe software can open my RAW files.

None of the adobe software recognize the RAW files from my Nikon D7100. I had no problems opening raw files from my D5000. I even tried to convert them to DNG but that didn't work either. I have used Lightroom, Photoshop CC, Bridge, Photoshop Elements 13, Photoshop 8. I wasn't able to see my Raw files in windows either until I downloaded NEC codec...and, of course, I can see them in the Nikon software. I have 8 folders of pics taken with the new camera. In the last folder, I can see and work with my RAW files and in one folder, there is one RAW file I can work with. All the rest are blank and won't open. In one folder, Lightroom won't even show the JPEGs. I shoot in RAW + (JPEG) FINE. I've downloaded all the files the same way. I will try to download them again, but not all of them are still on the card. I even tried to convert them to DNG, but if they can't be seen as RAW, they won't convert to DNG. The D7100 has been out for a while, so I can't believe that Adobe wouldn't work for it.

The IMG_6564.CR2 file on dropbox is corrupted in that it is missing most of the raw data which is why PS and LR cannot open it. For this specific file, at least, the camera-embedded-jpg preview is intact and can be extracted, so while not as good as the raw file, it is better than nothing.
Here is what IrfanView shows for the raw image:
Here is the camera-embedded jpg-preview as show in Windows Photo Viewer:
I was able to extract the camera-embedded jpg preview using EXIF Tool, with the following command:
exiftool -b -PreviewImage -w _preview.jpg -ext cr2 -r ./.
where ./.means the current folder in the CMD window. If the images were in a different folder, for example C:\Pictures, then the last part of the command would be -r C\Pictures
This created a IMG_6564_preview.jpg from the original IMG_6564.CR2 file.
The next step is to copy all the metadata over from the CR2 to its corresponding preview.jpg file:
exiftool -tagsfromfile %d%-.8f.cr2 -all:all -r -overwrite_original -ext jpg ./.
You can read about these two commands, here:http://ninedegreesbelow.com/photography/exiftool-commands.html#extract
ExifTool can be downloaded from the Windows Executable box near the top of the page at the following website, and once you download the extiftool-whatever.zip then extract exfitool(-k).exe then rename exiftool(-k).exe to exiftool.exe and copy it to the folder where your CR2 files reside then run the two commands, above to extract all the embedded previews:

Finally, it would be wise to determine why the files are corrupted. Usually it is the memory card, itself, that is going bad. Are all the images bad or just one here and there?

Why can't I view RAW files in CS3

I have installed CS3 on a new MacBook Pro. I am unable to edit/view RAW files from my Nikon D5000 Digital SLR.
Can you tell me what I am doing incorrectly.

You'll need to update to CS4 to get the updated Camera RAW plugin, or use the free DNG converter to convert your NEF files to DNG before processing with CS3.

Image Capture does not recognize RAW files from Panasonic Lumix G1

I'm in the process of buying a Lumix G1 camera, but while uploading images from the camera in the store via Image Capture, said app did not recognize its RAW files, only the JPEGs. It works fine with other new cameras such as Nikon D5000, etc. Any ideas?
BTW, my Powerbook is still running Tiger, and I want it that way!

Newbie with problems opening RAW files.

I am new to using RAW files. I started by following the instructions to download and install the new RAW plug-in for my CS2 version of photoshop. When I open CS2 and choose bridge, I can see the thumbnail of the NEF file, but when I right click to open, there is no option for me to open as RAW file. If I double left click to open it tells me it cannot open because it is the wrong type of file.
Photoshop CS2 Ver 9.0
Raw Plug-in Ver 3.7
Camera Nikon D5000

Unfortunately, ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 3.7 doesn't support RAW files from Nikon D5000.
Support for Nikon D5000 RAW was added in ACR 5.4. But, again, sorry to say you cannot install ACR5.4 for Photoshop CS2.
Your best bet is to try a DNG converter that you can find in your Nikon Camera Applications CD and convert your pictures.
You can also download ViewNX from here: http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Imaging-Software/NVNX/ViewNX.html#tab-Pr oductDetail-ProductTabs-Overview

Why don't RAW files from iPhoto open in RAW CS5?

I have dragged RAW files into Photoshop from iPhoto and they appear the same as the .jegs. Also, in the dropdown camera info panel, there is no info other than RAW and the file name:( I have a Nikon D5000 camera and am using OSX 10.6.6 All updates that could find have been done. I am not techy savvy so I hope that there is an easy solution. Thanks.

Yes, it is preferable to do as much editing on the raw files as you can including global and local tone & color correction in Camera Raw...but there is a limit to the work you can do and sometimes you must go ahead and render the raw file into Photoshop for additional work. Then you'll be needing layers and other functionality that can't be done on a raw file. At that point you'll need to save as a TIFF or PSD. If you work in 16 bit and a large enough color space, the TIFF or PSDs will still be capable of the highest quality...as others have indicated, the Photoshop .raw file format ain't for photography per se.

I am unable to open raw files from my Canon T1i in Adobe Camera Raw of my version CS3 of Photoshop. I have tried to update my ACR by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe website but I am still unable to open raw files, just JPEG. Is there a way to use

I am unable to open raw files taken on my Canon Rebel T1i in my version of Photoshop CS3. When I import raw files into Bridge they come up as patches with CR2 on them and when clicked on, a notice comes up stating that Photoshop does not recognize these files. I tried to update my Adobe Camera Raw by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe Website, but when I clicked on the plus-in, I got another message that Photoshop does not recognize this file. I spoke with a representative from Canon who said that I could not update CS3 and that I should subscribe to the Cloud. I would prefer to use my CS3, if possible. Can anyone advise me what to do?

The T1i was first supported by Camera Raw 5.4 which is only compatible with CS4 and later
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Some options:
Upgrade to CS6
Join the Cloud
Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all T1i Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS3

How can I process a linearly converted raw file while preserving color?

Hi,
I want to convert my raw files in a linear format (to preserve all the dynamic range and detail and prevent unnecessary clipping). My question is "how can I modify the brightness or luminance while preserving the hue and saturation of every color?"
As for applying the gamma curve, I guess the best and only way in Photoshop is to create a Levels adjustment and place a 2.2 in the middle (gray) input box. However, I read in http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/hybrid-conversion.shtml that a 4.75 value should be used... Why? Is the number placed there not correspond to the gamma being applied?
Thanks in advance.
Juan Dent
P.S.: getting colorimetrically accurate color from the camera, through all the manipulations in Photoshop is for me crucial. Any pointers as to what to do and what to avoid?

First of all, you should have used the Adobe DNG Converter 8.6, not an old, obsolete version. Always use the very latest version. 8.3 was simply the first ACR version to support your camera model, that's all.
Note that the DNG Converter works only on folders, not on individual raw files. Put all your Sony raw files in a folder and run the Converter on that folder containing the raw files.
I have absolutely no clue as to what on Earth you mean by : "upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5".
You also need to make sure that CS5 is fully updated. You cannot rely on the highly and notoriously unreliable Adobe auto updater to tell whether you have the latest update installed or not.
I still have no idea what platform you are on, Mac or Windows. Please read the following for next time:
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
A screen shot could be very helpful too.

Is there a way to edit raw files from the Canon 5DMkIII in Lightroom 2?

I rented a Canon 5DMkIII this past weekend and shot in RAW. I'm running Lightroom 2.7 on my laptop because I have a pre-Intel dual-G5 tower at home and can't run LR3 or LR4 on a pre-Intel chip machine and I tend to share my libraries across my laptop to my tower and back (so I need to be able to open the LR files on both machines, which is why I'm still using LR2 ... I know, I know, I need to upgrade but that's going to be a hefty investment!)... In the meantime, I'm wondering if there's a way to view/edit the raw files in Lightroom? They won't even import (I get the message upon import attempt: "Some import operations were not performed. (97)")... I know the information is there, though, because I used PhotoMechanic to do the initial sort of my images that I wanted to keep/edit. I see there's ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 6.7 (I think it is) that supports the 5DMkIII, but I'd prefer to edit across the board in Lightroom, it's so much faster. Is there something I can download to still edit my raw files in LR2? Or, do I have to buy the update and get LR4 if I want to edit my 5DMkIII RAW files? Thanks in advance for your help!!

Support for the canon 5d Mk111 was introduced in LR 4, ACR 6.7 so you will have to use the Adobe DNG Converter 6.7 or later to convert the raw files to dng format before you can import and work with the files in LR 2. The converter is a free download from Adobe and is available at this link.

How to open Raw files from Canon 1100D and 650D in CS5?

I need assistance please. I have a Canon 1100D and 650D. On Photoshop CS5 it does not recognise the 2 Cameras Raw files. What is my course of action. Help will be highly appreciated

evjems, As per the below article, Canon EOS 1100D needs minimum Adobe Camera Raw(ACR) version 6.4 and Canon EOS 650D needs minimum ACR version 7.1
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So, you should be able to open raw files of 1100D, if you upgrade your PS ( Help > Updates), but not of 650D as it needs PS CS6 and above.
Let me know in case you still have any doubts.
Hope that Helps!
