Opening Images from another converter in ACR

I save the output from a RAW converter like DXO as a dng. It opens in ACR. What would I expect to see?

Yes, I understand the difference, and I know DXO outputs a Linear DNG. I've known that for some time now.
I also know that DXO "actually" applies the lens correction to the image. What do you think I have been concerned about over in the Lens correction Forum and here as well?
I've known that for some time now and have made extensive tests on their output. I started well over a year ago, when lens corrections were only a gleam in Adobe's eye. This has been the thrust of my concerns; that no auto correction be applied in any part of the application w/o notification and the ability to say no. ACR is good in that aspect. In any event, the question posed here is about color correction, not lens. The DXO support person has covered these concerns quite well. He is an engineer, not a sales person. No, he is a physicist, with a PhD. who has explained their typical correction tests as each lens/body combination is characterized.
The question here is based in trying to understand the entire process. Is the demosaicing done as part of their lens correction process? The answer appears to be: No.
Is demosaicing done as part of the color correction? I would expect the answer to be yes, which posed the question, which I will state again:
What would you expect to see if you open a color corrected RAW file saved as a DNG which ACR opens? I see three possibilities:
1) The file in ACR looks like the file which DXO saved as a DNG  as shown in their viewer. ACR and DXO Look the same
2)The file looks like the nef file, that is, the  DXO correction is stripped. ACR and DXO look different
3) The file looks weird! DXO looks ok, ACR ???
What would you expect to see? Forget lens corrections.
FYI, Jeff, I am a long time engineer, starting my professional life in 1958 at Argonne National Labs working on Linac instrumentation.. I became a full time Photo Pro in 1974, and in 1998, returned to engineering as a contractor and consultant. My major career work was with Tektronix, which included test and evaluation of lenses for oscilloscope cameras. If I don't understand, I ask. Which brings me to a question from your post: What do you mean by "colors backed in"? I can make a SWAG, but I would rather not.

  • Is there a way to open image with another phogram outside photoshop?

    Hi
    i have cs6 and bridge cs6 ,windows 7 64bit
    is there a way to open images with another program then photoshop?
    for example a script or other ways?
    i'm talking about jpg,raw files for example
    for example i would like to send 4 photos to ptgui or other programs
    thanks

    PTGui Pro should appear in your 'Open With' list bottom section, at least it shows on my system (Mac)
    Be aware that PTGui can only handle jpeg, tiff and PNG and it only handles Raw files using the DCraw converter (Open source originally developed for Linux).
    Only applications that support the particular file type you select appear in the Open With list.
    And on a Mac I can drag and drop jpeg and tiff from Bridge to the project assistant.

  • Loader will load images from another server, but then we get error on Bitmap operation

    I'm developing an app that currently is using Loader to get images from another server.  This shouldn't currently work since we are still waiting for the owner of that server to put a crossdomain file in place.  However, it does work -- sort of .
    Loader can load the images fine, without an error.  But then the app has a feature in which we are making a larger duplicate of the image to display in a sidebar, we do this in this manner:
    var myBitmap:Bitmap = Bitmap(loader.content);
    and when this runs we get a Flash player security error 2122, sandbox violation.
    So while I'm hoping all this will fix itself when the crossdomain.xml file is put in place, I'm confused as to why we only get the sandbox error when we make a Bitmap from the image, and not when we initially try to retrieve the image.
    (Incidentally: is there a better way to make a "copy" of an image loaded by a Loader, and then change its width and height for simultaneous display in another part of the stage?  I don't need to change its actual dimensions -- I just need to change its display width and height.)
    Thanks!

    The sandbox allows viewing, not editing from another server without a crossdomain.
    So, when you try to load it up, it loads it, but "read-only" and gives you an error when you try to "edit" it by making a new Bitmap out of it.
    This should resolve itself once that crossdomain is in place.
    ||EDIT||
    I just realized I should clarify my statement a little more.
    When you load images from another server without a crossdomain, it allows the load for display only.  When you try to load data, it will fail.  This is because, XML data, or some other type of data is editable by default, and images are only viewable by default.  So, the image fails when you try to convert it into an editable form.

  • How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
    I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
    I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
    Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
    This all works fine (very proud of it ).
    Now my question:
    To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
    Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
    Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
    extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
    something like:
    var pointer:Number=1;
    for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
    get MC_1.picure(var);
    put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
    pointer = pointer + 1;
    All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
    T.I.A.
    Melluw

    I tried your advice (thanks for that)
    The event I already have is the mouse leave
    I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
    The code I ended up with is:
    function Start() {
    stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
    function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
    var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
    if (CCW == true) {  //it is true in this case
      movStart = (50 - currFrame);
    else {
      movStart = currFrame;
    if (movStart>25) {
      MC_1.prevFrame();
    // removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
    // removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
    else {
      MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
    And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
    Nothing happens,
    So I guess this is not what you meant
    Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
    I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content.  So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
    I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file.  You probably just need to rethink your control scheme.  You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

  • Photoshop CS-6 does not open images from Lightroom 5

    I do have Photoshop CS-6 and Lightroom 5.  Nearly all images were created in a Windows 7 (64 bit) environment.  I have moved platforms to MAC. I have moved all images and the Catalog. I have changed platform to MAC. I am now using MAC OS-X (10.9.1).
    I am able to see all images in Lightroom, I am able to modify all images in Lightroom. I can export the images to Jpeg (for example) from Lightroom.  I do have a warining at several images in Lightroom = "metadates have been changed - would you like to overwrite data or import ?"
    First time I have tried to open an Image from Lightroom (hand over) Photoshop opens, but does not show any picture and no error message. But when I then look to recently opened files, the image is in the list. When I do click on this, Photoshop shows and error message: "the datamodule can not handle the file format" (which is either RAW or jpeg).
    Another expirience is, when I try to open directly from Photoshop any other image, Photoshop ignores the XMP and opens the original file without any modification.

    That's normal if the raw files were originally edited in Lightroom. Lightroom stores all edits in the catalog, not the xmp sidecar. You can set Lightroom to write to xmp as well, but that slows it down a little and so it's off by default. The Lightroom shortcut ctrl/cmd+S will also save to xmp.

    That's related to the above, and also normal if you go the other way - edit in ACR and then move to Lightroom. It'll then be in xmp, but not the Lightroom catalog.
    As for the missing on-screen image, that's a common video driver bug (although I suppose other causes are possible). For Windows you can download updated drivers directly from the manufacturer's website, but that's not possible with Mac. You'll have to wait for Apple to fix it.

  • CS 5 won't open images from Lightroom 3

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to CS5 from CS3, and I've been using Lightroom 3 since it came out. The installation went fine. After working on some images in Lightroom 3.3, I tried to open them in CS5 12.02, and strange things started to happen. Some times the images open, some times they don't. This applies to NEFs, TIFFs, and PSDs. Sometimes when I try to open an image from my Lightroom catalog, CS5 mysteriously opens small jpegs of photos that are not even in my catalog. In fact, they are images I don't even recognize and did not even know were on my computer.
    I called Adobe Customer Support. They were helpful, and they had me set CS5 as my external editor as well as being the primary editor. They also helped me reset my preferences for both Lightroom and CS5. This seemed to work, but when I opened Lightroom and CS5 the next day, the problem started happening again, even when I open images in CS5 using the second external editor.
    I spent over and hour on the phone with Customer Support the first time, and I'm trying to get help elsewhere before I call again.
    I have a MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.5.8 with 4 GB of RAM.
    Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

  • Hot key to open image from Camera Raw?

    Is there a key combination in Camera Raw v4.1 to open the image in Photoshop CS3 instead of having to use the mouse to click on the Open Image button?
    Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

    Barry,
    You are under yet another misconception if you think I have been commenting on your workflow. I have not, and will not.
    From the beginning, I have been focusing on a single issue: what single-key stroke may affect the Open button in the ACR dialog box. The answer was (and remains) that there is no single-key stroke that will open the image in Photoshop if you're having Bridge host ACR. Command+O will open the image on the Mac, or Ctrl+O on Windows.
    Jeff then pointed out to you that the Enter key activates the Done button
    as long as Bridge is hosting ACR, and that the same Enter key activates the Open button
    if Photoshop is hosting ACR.
    The question of deciding whether Bridge or Photoshop is going to be hosting ACR is a separate question from using Bridge to open your images.
    Of course you can open your image through Bridge and
    still have Photoshop host ACR.
    Thus, your workflow has nothing to do with what I've been trying to convey to you.
    And I have no comment, criticism or suggestion in connection with your workflow.
    As Jeff has repeatedly explained to you, it makes more sense to have Bridge host ACR when you're only making global adjustments to your images, and to have Photoshop host ACR when you need to make localized adjustments, (e.g. selections) to your images or to print them.

  • CS5 can only open images from file open

    I've done some googling/forum searching to no avail so far. Entering my exact error only directed me to some twitter statuses, so I'm hoping someone will be able to help.
    Basically, CS5 gives an error if I try to open images by: dragging from finder, double-clicking from thunderbird, using the edit tool in Acrobat Pro, double-clicking in Bridge and probably a number of other situations.
    As the topic states, it only seems to be able to open files via File > Open (Open Recent also appears to work). Other than that, CS5 appears to be working normally. It's more of a nuisance than anything, but it's disturbing my workflow quite a bit, so that's why I've decided to post about it.
    Now here's the kicker: This new development seemingly coincides with installing some drivers (that's assuming they are called drivers in the OSX world) for a Lexmark 654de scanner/copier we just had installed here at work. I searched the computer for "lexmark" hoping I could trash some related files but literally nothing shows in the results.
    You may argue, genuinely, that I should be posting this on some kind of Lexmark forum, and I may end up doing that. I assume a forum of photoshop users to be more helpful than Lexmark support forum if they even have one, though.
    Error Text is as follows: The document "whatever.jpg" could not be opened. Photoshop cannot open files in the "Adobe Photoshop JPEG file" format.
    Insert TIF for TIF files, PDF, etc. It seems to happen to all the common filetypes I use. Neither InDesign nor Illustrator are experiencing similar issues (if that helps).
    Standard infomation:
    Adobe Photoshop CS5 version 12.0.2 x64
    Mac OSX 10.6.6
    8GB RAM
    952.98 GB Free Space
    512mb ATI Radeon HD 5670
    Lexmark 654de scanner/copier/fax machine could be related to the problem
    Thanks for reading and offering any advice you may have.

    This is a long shot but try going to Preferences/Type and uncheck "Show Font Names in English".
    Quit illustrator and restart, does it work now?
    The reason I´m suggesting this is that unless I have this box unchecked, some internal function in illustrator crashes after I´ve opened one document and I have to quit & restart if I wan´t to open another one. A rather silly bug and I stumpled upon the solution by accident after cursing illustrator for a couple of months...

  • Where do I update CS3 to open images from cd

    My friend gave me some images to edit from my daughters wedding on a cd. I have CS3 and the bridge and it will not allow me to open and edit the images. She has a new Canon 5D camera and I don't know if that is reason, but she said I need an update, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I would appreciate any help you can give. These images are camera raw, and raw files from my Rebel xti open fine. They have the extention CR2 and xmp.

    If the camera is a Canon 5D MII then Photoshop CS3 with Camera Raw 4.6 won't open thos images...you choice is to either upgrade to Photoshop CS4 or use the free DNG Converter to convert the 5D MII files from CR2 to DNG. You'll want the most recent version found here on the DNG Product Page.
    You'll use the DNG Converter to convert the raw files to DNG....to do so you'll need to copy the images from the CD to your hard drive...follow the DNG Converter instructions and then Camera Raw 4.6 in Photoshop CS3 will be able to open them...

  • Opening image from lightroom

    When I open an image from lightroom as an edit copy it's profile is a psd file. PROPHOTO RGB. Should I convert to adobe RGB or use the PROPHOTO RGB profile? After edit in ps2 should it be saved as adobe rgb to be imported back to lightroom? Thanks, Owen

    It depends on the use to which you intend to put the PSD file. If you're preparing for print, and that process can support PRo Photo space, I'd use that. Otherwise aRGB.

  • Trying to subtract one image from another

    I am a graduate student in a biology laboratory and I have been given the task to remove autofluorescence from our fluorescent microscopy images and I have found a way to do it, but I would like to improve it.  Unfortunately, I know very little about photoshop (mostly learned by playing around with things).
    What I need to do is take two pictures which show the same section of tissue but with different wavelengths of light (one picure in green, one in red) and subtract one image from the other.  So far I have converted the two images to greyscale then did "Apply Image" to subtract image 2 from image 1.  Then I convert Image 1 back to RGB and adjust the channels so I only have one color showing (green).  It has been effective but I would like to adjust things a bit.
    First, is there an easy way that I can adjust the brightness/contrast/levels of the image 2 to match the images levels to image 1--both images have certain parts of the image that are conserved.  Can I get photoshop to look at a specific area on image 1 and allow me to adjust that same area in image 2 to the same brightness/intesity?
    Second, I tried to make an action for this process, so I can give it to the other people in the lab so they can quickly do the same technique.  When I get to the Apply Image step it asks for the name of the image that I am working with which should change each time I do this technique.  Is there another approach other than using the Apply Image feature which will allow me to subtract image 2 from image 1 that would work in an action.
    If you need anymore clarification or an example of the pictures let me know.

    Put both images on individulal layers, and set the blending mode of the topmost one to "Difference". Adjust layer transprency as desired.
    If you add an adjustment layer, you can link it as a clipping mask to one layer. You can then paint on the associated layer mask to make it only affect certain areas.
