Olympus E-3 and Photoshop CS2 .ORF Raw Files

I've recently purchased an Olympus E-3 (previously owned E-330). I use CS2 and Windows XP Media. I am new to shooting RAW images and just got back from a trip where I shot RAW (.ORF) images.
I updated my DNG converter and Camera Raw to 3.7 (as that is the highest level supported by CS2). The list of supported cameras include the E-3. But I still get the error message that it can't complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.
I try to use the DNG Converter and get a message there was an error parsing the image.
What am I not understanding? Since the E-3 should be supported in Camera Raw, why am I getting this error message? I really enjoy the flexibility of photoshop Camera Raw and wish to continue.
What is the best and easiest way to open these files in Photoshop? I am stuck with a ton of .ORF images that I cannot open. Please help!

I am now assuming ACR is the the same as Camera Raw (and please correct me if I am wrong). But I have tried the latest DNG converter 4.5 and Camera Raw 3.7 in my Common Files/plug ins folder.
>The way you phrase this seems to indicate that you somehow try to open the files directly "using" the DNG converter. You have to convert them first, so that you have two sets of files, one .ORF and one .DNG.
I tried going through bridge to open in camera raw and it is dimmed. I tried double clicking on the .orf file and get the original "not the right kind of document error". How to you "convert them first" as mentioned in the quote above.
Before all I had to do was double click on the .orf file and Camera Raw opened or I just used Adobe Bridge and double clicked. What steps should I follow now?
Again any assistance would be greatly appreciated

  • Can i open and edit nikon d810 raw files in lightroom 4.4

    can i open and edit nikon d810 raw files in lightroom 4.4

    No. Lightroom 4.x will never be able to open Raw files from the D810.
    D810 support has only just been added to the RC version of Camera Raw 8.6. It is never retrospectively added into older versions.
    Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 8.6 RC for CC and CC 2014 Release Candidate | digital camera raw file support - Adobe Labs
    Adobe will probably add D810 support to the next version of Lightroom.
    Either way you'll have to upgrade to Lightroom 5 to be able to open D810 Raw files in Lightroom.

  • When will LR be able to read Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II Raw files?

    When will LR be able to read Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II Raw files?

    It has been added to Camera Raw 8.8 and DNG converter 8.8. So I suspect it will probably be added to the next release of Lightroom, whenever that might be. In the meantime, you can download DNG converter 8.8 and create DNG copies of your raw files that you can use in Lightroom now. No one knows when the next release of Lightroom will be. A lot of users anticipate that it will be soon, but there is nothing from Adobe giving any hint of a release date.

  • Does not import ORF raw files

    Photo's does not support Olympus ORF raw files. At least not the latest M5 MkII camera raw files. Its a brand new program why is it not up to date with Oly raw files.

    Welcome to the list. Make sure you read the [Help & Terms of Use|http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa] section when you get a chance.
    Do you have Aperture installed in the Applications folder as Aperture (not Aperture3 or anything like that)?

  • Preview cant open ORF raw files on Imac but works on MBP..

    I have a wierd problem.. My ORF raw files from my EM5 do not open in Preview on my Imac but I can open them in Iphoto.  They do open on my MBP that is running the same OS and everything.
    Im very confused..
    Thanks

    Please forgive this, but you are posting in the wrong forum. This is the Mac Pro forum, not the MacBook Pro forum nor the iMac forum. I suggest that in the future you should post questions in the appropriate forum to assure your query is seen by those who may be best able to help you.
    I believe your problem may be that you are logging in as Guest rather than logging into a valid user account on the server machine. Guest accounts have access only to the Shared folder while all other data on the machine will be read-only. You need to log into the normal user account on the server machine to gain full access. And, you will need to designate what is shared on the server machine. If you want full access you must select the drive icon, press COMMAND-I, then check the Shared box in the Get Info window (this is all done on the server machine.)
    For more info select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "file sharing" to find help articles.

  • How can I display and use the full RAW file?

    Hi,
    my camera (Canon S95) has a sensor with 4:3 aspect ratio and thus saves all RAW files in this format. Additionally, the camera can automatically create JPGs with a cropped ratio (e.g. 3:2 or 16:9). This is very helpful because you can see the target format already on the camera screen (with black bars on top and bottom), which helps the composition. However, when processing the photos on the big screen afterwards, it often also helps the photo to adjust the ratio a little bit and therefore use the additional information saved in the bigger 4:3 RAW file. This works very well with many of the freely available software tools.
    The problem found in Lightroom is now that it only shows the RAW photo in the cropped format and up to know I have found no way to display or use the full RAW format. So my question is: Which settings do I have to change to use the full format? What do I need to change?
    Searching a little bit on the web I found many other photographes having the exactly same problem with many different cameras. However none of them reported to have a solution for this. Still I am pretty sure that there must be a solution, since otherwise this would be a really heavy bug within Lightroom and I cannot imagine that Adobe would leave this matter unsolved.
    So I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this.
    Many Thanks
    Martin

    Hi Jao, Victoria, Lee Jay,
    Thanks for clearification. Do you have additional information about when this fix will be available and whether at least some popular old cameras will be supported?
    What I do not get is why Adobe would need to redo all existing cameras. I think this is a more general issue, where Lightroom misinterpretes the exif data which includes both the exif image height/width as well as the cropped image height/width. Intepreting this information correctly, any software should be able to display both - the full image and the cropped area (as shown by many cheap or free software tools). In the internet I found another workaround for the issue in Lightroom, which is undermining this point: When setting the cropped image height/width to the numbers of exif image height/width manually (e.g. with exif tools), Lightroom actually is able to display the full 4:3 picture.
    So this bug should be easily fixed for all cameras and I have no clue why Adobe still has no fixed it with Lightroom already available in version 4.2.
    Cheers
    Martin

  • Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

    Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

    Yes, if you have PSE 11 (not the mac app store version). You will need to go to Help>Updates in the editor to update ACR to 7.3.

  • I recently purchased Elements 13 for Mac-OS and cannot download N-OS and cannot download NEF-RAW files taken on my Nikon D5500. The model is not listed among those supported by Elements, but the D5300 is, which is nearly identical. Is there any quick fix?

    What is N-OS?
    For the camera raw problem, every new camera has its own raw format and ACR must be updated to include it. That hasn't happened yet for the D5500, so you'll just have to use the Nikon software till Adobe gets the info and releases an updated version of ACR. It's not unusual to be in your situation if you buy a camera model that's only been out a month. You just have to wait a bit.

  • Ipad and olympus ORF raw files from epl-1

    I have an ipad that I've used as something of a photo storage device while on vacations. I do underwater photography and each day I come in and download the card to my ipad. In the past I've used a point and shoot that saved the files in a jpg format and had no problem with any software being able to read or edit those files. Recently I purchased an olympus epl-1 camera and started shooting in raw. I followed my normal procedure and uploaded the files each day to the pad and it seems to allow me to view them without difficulty. Last night I downloaded the files to the computer in order to batch convert several to jpg's in photoshop elements. Photoshop tells me it cannot read the orf format from any of the files I downloaded from the pad. PSE has no trouble reading the raw files from the same camera that I had not uploaded to the pad. Does the pad change the files in some way? I intend to pull the files off of the cards tonight and see if pse will read them. Is this a known issue? I haven't found anything about it. Thanks for your help.

    The files should not have been changed by the iPad. Bear in mind that there are a half a zillion versions of RAW. It may be that the iPad does not support Olympus RAW.

  • DNG and Olympus XZ-2 ORF raw files

    Not sure why this is not working. Using the stand alone DNG converter I select the folder with the ORF files (Olympus raw files) but DNG is not seeing them. It's like they are not there. I know they are there. I am using DNG 8.3. Is it possible this version is not yet supporting these files? Help!!! Thank you. My Olympus camera is a Stylus XZ-2

    I am using DNG 8.3. Is it possible this version is not yet supporting these files?
    Correct.
    Refer to the following tables to see which cameras are supported. If a camera is not listed then it's not supported.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    https://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2014/02/camera-raw-8-4-rc-and-dng-converter-8-4-r c-now-available.html
    Both indicate that the Olympus XZ-2 is not yet supported in Camera Raw up to and including the pre-release version 8.4.

  • Adobe Stock Photos Stuck in Trash and Photoshop CS2 won't run!

    Okay, I apparently did something stupid. I'm not even sure how this happened, but I realized that Adobe Stock Photos folder was sitting on my desktop (I'm using OS X 10.5.6). I don't know when this happened and I didn't think I needed it so I dragged it to the trash. NOW I cannot run any of my Adobe software (includes Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2 and GoLive CS2).
    I can see the folder sitting in my trash, but it won't let me drag it back out. So, just as a test, I tried dragging out the one other file (.jpg) and I can't get that one either. I know this isn't a Mac forum, but I'm desparate and cannot find anything to help me.
    Probably I am going to have to reinstall everything and (of course) I can't find my CDs!!! Please don't get angry if I'm asking the wrong question. I've done an internet search and I cannot find any solutions.
    Thanks, Anne

    Adobe stock photos does not even exist anymore.
    Have you tried deleting your trash? I have no Adobe stock Photos on my computer and everything works. try restarting the computer.

  • Trouble Opening Illustrator and Photoshop CS2??

    When opening Adobe Illustrator CS2 I receive a Windows Box showing Adobe Illustrator: Illustrator.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x003c197d" referenced memory at "0x000000000". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program.
    I am also having trouble accessing Adobe Photoshop CS2. When I open the program it simply stays in one sequence as a loop and does not completely open.

    32 bit Windows XP
    I also tried uninstalling and re-installing the full program and it still has the same problem.
    I even checked my ram by moving a single memory card from one slot to the next to see if that was the problem but still the same error messages.
