Powershot sx50hs aspect ratio in raw

Hello, I'm having an issue with the aspect ratio in raw mode. I shoot both raw and jpeg I have set the aspect ratio to 16:9 which is how the jpeg is cpatured but the raw image is 4:3. What am I missing, how can I set the aspect ratio for both raw and jpeg to be 16:9 ? Thanks in advance  

The native aspect ratio for RAW files is 4:3 and cannot be changed. However, when you shoot both RAW and JPEG, there should be no issue when you go to process the RAW file. It should still recognize the aspect ratio you selected for the JPEG when you shoot both in RAW + JPEG. Perhaps the software you are using to process the RAW file does not recognize the aspect ratio and defaults to 4:3 only. I tried both the Canon software (Digital photography Professional) and Adobe Photoshop Elements and both had no problems with seeing the RAW as 16:9. Steve M.

  • E-M5 Mark II: Why does LR6 not support working with the full 4:3 raw image for pictures taken using a different aspect ratio?

    When importing Olympus E-M1 or E-M10 raw images which are taken in aspect ratio different to native the 4:3 MFT sensor format, LR will display the frame as crop overlay to the full image as captured by the sensor. This is very useful because at time of postprocessing one can still control the position of the frame, and modify if required.
    I was very suprised to see that for E-M5 Mark 2 this is not supported in LR6. The raw file in LR6 corresponds exactly to the frame which was chosen while shooting. Full 4:3 image information is present in the ORF raw file though, which can be easily seen eg using Olympus Viewer.
    Is there any specific reason why this useful feature has been neglected for E-M5 Mark II?
    Thanks

  • CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!

    CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!

    Hi Kglad.
    I have looked at all of my settings both in Bridge and CS6 Photoshop regarding Camera Raw. I am at a loss how to set the crop tool in cm or inches as I once did - now the only option is to crop using ratios of 1:1 etc etc - This is infuriating as lots of my square crops I could set at 10" x 10'' specifically to print one to one to fit frame and mount size -
    Now if cropping using bloody aspect ratio of 1:1 (square) the actual dims of the crop are roughly 4.25 inches x 4.25 inches. this means I then have to open the whole image in photoshop in order to crop at the dims I have set! It was so much quicker in terms of batch cropping in camera raw being able to set dims in centimetres and inches but they have gone and mucked around with it, with the new bloody update! Unless you are an absolute genius and know how I can go back to having an option of CM, Inches and aspect ratio within the custom crop settings? (Please say you do)
    here is the new tutorial for CC -  my guess is they have scrapped the control we had over the custom crop settings

  • How to keep original aspect ratio when cropping in Camera Raw?

    How to keep original aspect ratio when cropping in Camera Raw? Cant figure it out! With shift, the aspect ratio is 1:1. But I didnt set it to 1:1 (I checked "normal").

    The Shift key works once you’ve set your crop ratio.  DSLRs would typically do 2:3 and others sometimes do 3:4.

  • OM-D: how to view entire 4:3 RAW file when aspect ratio set in-camera to 3:2?

    When shooting RAW, the OM-D records 4:3 files no matter what the aspect ratio is set to.  If you set it to 3:2 (for example), the camera records some sort of metadata to communicate this information to Lightroom, which honors the setting.  So far, so good.
    My question is, is there any way to override that setting? I have a photo shot at 3:2, but I can see from the in-camera preview that it'd be a better shot with the whole thing. But I can't figure out how to get LR 4.1rc2 to show me the whole thing!
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Unfortunately, there is no way in LR directly. You may be able to restore the settings directly in the raw file using exiftool (tags "aspectratio" and "aspectframe", there are instructions in some forums I think), but it is generally not advisable to manipulate original raws that way (at least, a backup should be made).

  • Canon s95 in 3.3 RAW aspect ratio

    Hi,
    When I import Canon s95 in 3.3, RAW + JPEG with aspect ratio 3:2, I see the picture in 3:2 ratio.
    Nevertheless, the RAW has the full info (4:3)
    Is it possible to have it?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately, Lightroom does not read settings made by other software.  This probably would not be a solution for you.  But I wanted to create a series of images that would display full screen on my HD TV, 16:9 aspect ratio.  I selected all the images and then made the crop on the first one with auto sync enabled.  Then I went through the images, approximately 250, and found that I only had to make positional adjustments on about 20 of them.  In my opinion, I saved a lot of time.

  • Sony RAW - 16:9 aspect ratio: how to change to 3:2?

    Hi,
    I normally shoot in RAW on my Sony A700 with 3:2 aspect ratio and I've found a utility that will enable me to extract the HD jpeg that Sony embeds in every A700 RAW picture.  These jpegs can be automatically extracted, put on an SD card and played back through my Panasonic HD TV - a quick and very attractive slideshow.  So far, so good.  However, using the 3:2 aspect ratio means that the embedded jpeg is 1620 x 1080 pixels not 1920 x 1080, so it doesn't fill the screen.  If I change to shooting in 16:9, the extracted embedded jpegs are now 1920 x 1080 and do fill the screen.
    The interesting thing is that the 16:9 format RAW file has still been captured in the 3:2 format and is the same size in MB, but there is, presumably, now a flag in the EXIF data which is used by Lightroom and Photoshop CS3 so that they display the RAW file as 16:9.  Now DxO Optics Pro ignores this flag and displays the same RAW file in 3:2 format.  I still want to process the RAW file in its 3:2 format (ie I don't necessarily want to lose the top and bottom of the picture).
    The question, therefore, is whether there is any way that I can cause Lightroom (or Photoshop and Bridge) to ignore the flag indicating that a RAW file should be processed in 16:9 format?
    Any help on this would be most welcome.
    Ian

    I am very surprised LR reads the tag. There is a fix. Convert your RAW file to DNG and then run DNG recover edges on it:

    When reimported into Lightroom, you should see all pixels in the RAW file.

  • Black bars alongside video+squished aspect ratio on export

    I'm trying to get my import/export settings right--I keep getting black bars and a squished or stretched image when my videos export.  Since Elements doesn't read MOD I've been using miro to convert, which doesn't like to export to mp4 all that well to begin with (which furthers my diagnosis problems.)  I don't know anything about video image->pixel size (nor can I find anything online that makes sense to me) and canon's website doesn't tell me what my camera is shooting in in those terms, but I've been using the widescreen format--what is that size??  I'm not sure if this problem is because of defaulting project settings on import (Elements not picking up on the proper format and defaulting to something else), an exporting problem (I've tried all the different settings under publish+share>computer>mpeg4 and quicktime>NTSC DVD standard and widescreen, as well as every other export option I can think of), or a conversion problem (why doesn't Elements accept MOD to begin with?  Final Cut 7 does no problem!)  Everything looks good in the editing process, plays fine etc. 
    Is this a simple fix?  The videos play fine in quicktime, but VLC catches the bars, which makes me think it's a simple solution to a complex diagnosis.  Please help, thanks.

    Thanks for the update.
    Let us look into the following next, one problem down (the aspect ratio), next the quality of playback of your Timeline as seen in the Edit Mode Monitor.
    1. Given that you are working with .mod widescreen 16:9.
    a. Open a new Premiere Elements 11 Mac project. Go to File Menu/New/Project and set the project preset yourself in the new project dialog. You want NTSC DV Widescreen. Make sure that you have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on this Project" before you exit the new project dialog.
    b. Once back in the Premiere Elements workspace, go to Add Media/Files and Folders and import your mod.widescreen into Project Assets.
    c. Right click the .mod widescreen file in Project Assets, select Interpret Footage, and, in the Interpret Footage dialog, dot the Conform to: and set that to DV/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2121).
    d. Drag your .mod widescreen to the Timeline from Project Assets. Do you see no colored line over the content, an orange line, or a green line? If an orange line, render the Timeline with the Render button or pressing the Enter Key of the computer main keyboard. Is the .mod widescreen now display the same, worse, or better than before we started all this?
    Also, right click the monitor, select Playback Quality, and see if there is any difference in what you are seeing if you use Highest instead of Automatic as the set. Also check to see if Magnification there is "Fit" rather than other.
    Is your video card driver up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
    Please review the above and let us know the outcome.
    Thanks.

    Although conversion .mod widescreen to another format is always a consideration, it has not been found to be necessary in essentially most cases. Classically, if an import problem with this type of file, the renaming of the .mod file extension to .mpg prior to import took care that while Interpret Footage took care of the aspect ratio issue.
    I just saw your note about MPEG Streamclip. That works great for Windows for conversion to DV AVI. Never tried it for a .mov export for Mac. But remember there is an option for 4:3 or 16:9 in that dialog (or there should be...I will take a look if you do not find it). So no distortion expected since MPEG Streamclip should be supplying that problematic 16:9 flag.

  • Wrong aspect ratio in browsermode, after import...

    Hello there,
    here's the dilemma:
    after I import raw images in aperture, the preview images (Browser mode) seem to be off (not proportioned correctly). Once I go to  Viewer mode, they "scale" to normal. It takes about half a second. It seems as if something is added to top and bottom of the image, ie. more "info" comes in... the actual aspect ratio (?) doesn't change, but the added info makes it "right". And it actually is added to both "long sides of the image", not top and bottom. By that I mean that if the it is a portrait orientation, it's left and right of the image that changes.
    This is not a problem if there were just few images. I could go and move from one image to next in Viewer mode, and wait for that half a sec every in between, but when it's hundreds of images... well, you understand, not fun.
    The camera is Sony a-55. And I have tried to import both directly from camera and by using the card reader in iMac. Same problem both.
    Thanks for all the help,
    Teemu Huttunen
    Finland

    Thanks Kirby, for joyning us! Good to know, that this is not a general problem with Sony cameras.
    Teemu, I just checked, the raw support list says, that the a55 requires Aperture 3, so the raw support probably will be installed with the application.
    Separate raw support download installers are here: Each installer adds a few cameras - it is a bit tedious to look at all of them to find the one, that installs the support for your camera.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#raw%20support
    I'd try first to reinstall Aperture. Since you bought from the App Store, you can download Aperture again, if you quit Aperture and remove it from the Applications folder to the Trash (don't empty the Trash); log off and on again. Then sign into the App Store and download the installer again - it should be available in the "purchases" tab and see, if reinstalling helps.

  • Header Image File - Wrong Aspect Ratio in PDF

    I imported a picture into a form and it looks great in the FormsCentral editor.  But when I export the form, the aspect ratio is all wrong.  The Form Setup is 700 pixels, letter, Portrait.  I don't see many setting options to play with.  See attached screen shots.
    This is what it looks like in the editor - logo looks great.
    This is what it looks like as a PDF - logo aspect ratio is hosed!

    I had a similar problem (and solved it):
    I combined (right click on selected files > "Combine supported files in Acrobat...") .jpg images to a PDF binder using Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
    Image source: http://www.kultpower.de/archiv/heft_powerplay_1992-03
    The result was a PDF with horizontally bloated pages that did not match the aspect ratio of the raw images.
    Why is that so?
    Unlike Foxit PhantomPDF, Adobe Acrobat uses EXIF metadata (ExifImageWidth, ExifImageHeight) stored in the image header instead of the real dimensions of the File (ImageWidth, ImageHeight).
    Windows users can verify EXIF info by using for example the free tools XnView, Exifier or best ExifToolGUI.
    In my case, the image dimensions were 1200x1710 (real actual dimensions) and around 1469x2084 (EXIF metadata).
    Now how can that be - this does not make any sense ?
    Well, obviously, the original file had larger dimensions and was resized without deleting the EXIF dimensions.
    Because Acrobat uses the EXIF info intstead of the actual dimensions, the PDF looks distorted as a result.
    Again, Foxit Phantom uses the actual image dimensions when creating PDFs.
    How to solve the issue:
    In case you have image files with different dimensions, the easiest way to fix this is by selectively deleting EXIF metadata using:
    1) PhotoShop for single files (File > Save for Web & Devices > set “Metadata” to “None”: http://photographylife.com/how-to-delete-exif-data#ixzz2i0wFMNpE
    2) ExifToolGUI (free) for multiple files in a folder: ExifTool direct > Command: -r -Exif:all= ( http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/~bogdan/ )

  • Move rejected to trash changes aspect ratio of a clip

    I just switched from iMovie HD to iMovie '11. I imported all old projects that I did not yet work on into the new version. This worked fine and I created my first movie successfully. For the current movie I have a lot of raw material in the format of 16:9 (DV). So I rejected parts of a clip and moved these to the trash in order to free space. But after moving the rejected parts, something happend to the aspect ratio of the remainder of the clip. The remaining clip is now distorted to 4:3 (black bars to the left and right, image distorted in height). All other clips are still in 16:9 and the projects settings tell this, too.
    Does anyone know how to reset the clip in the event viewer to the correct aspect ratio?
    Many thanks,
    Erik

    It sounds like that in the process of deleting the first half of the clip, the Anamorphic flag was stripped off.
    You should be able to fix this in MPEG Streamclip, which is free.
    In iMovie, right-click on the Event clip with the bad aspect ratio. Select Reveal In Finder. Drag this clip into Mpeg Streamclip.
    In mpeg streamclip, FILE/EXPORT TO DV.
    Choose 16:9 as aspect ratio and leave everything else the same.
    Import this clip back into your imovie project. When you are sure all is well, you can delete the other one.

  • Digital Photo Professional and Aspect Ratio on DPP Version 3.13.51 (3.13.51.0) OS X version 10.8.5

    I recently up graded to DPP  Version 3.13.51 (3.13.51.0)  and it seems have lost the capability when cropping using the trimming tool to convert the cropped images to their cropped aspect ratio.
    Shoot events with two cameras 6D and 50D. Always shoot RAW. At the end of an event may have as many as 1000 images to edit and convert to small sized JPGs for display on WEB.  I bring in the RAW, select the RAW images to be converted, then from the Collection TAB edit the RAW. Editing may include cropping a 3:2 image to 4:3 or 5:4 or 2:3 or 3:4 or 4:5 or Custom. Once I have completed the editing and cropping  I apply the BATCH Process to convert the RAW images to JPG and resize and rename. Here is where the issue appears. Before upgrading to DPP 3:13 I would use the following conversion selections :
    File Format Exif- JPEG
    Image Quality 10 Embedded ICC Profile
    Resize (in Resize I would always select )
    900 pixel Width and 600 pixel height with Lock Aspect Ratio
    Then would name the file
    With those parameters the converted and saved images would convert to the proper sizes with proper Aspect Ration as Cropped and Trimmed. I would always line up the images so that the 3:2 ratio would show in the selection window (5472 x3648) then I would enter the new desired size  (900 x 600) . The 3:2 images would convert to 900 x 600 and the images cropped to 5:4 Aspect Ratio would convert  for example to 642 x 514  (the proper ratio for 5:4). 
    With the new version 3:13 the image cropped to 5:4 also is converted to 900 x 600 rather than the desired 642 x 514. 
    This is a real conundrum for my workflow. It works the same way even if I uncheck the Lock Ratio Option on the Resize command options. 
    How can I fix this? If uninstalling and reverting back to the older version of DPP is my only solution, what are proper steps for uninstall and reinstall of older version and maintain data structure. 
    I have Lightroom but have never been able to get a workflow as efficient as the DPP flow for converting hundreds of RAW to small cropped JPGs. 
    Thanks for your help.

    Solved!

    I don't use DPP enough to help you with your issue. But Lightroom is really great program for batch processing. It is much much better than DPP, so you may want to look at it again since you arealdy have it.

  • How to check for different crop aspect ratios

    The problem I'm having is that I have hundreds of images that I need to send to a photo print lab. Before sending off my images I have to make sure they all will fit correctly for 8x10 prints (5:4 aspect ratio) and other ratios but I need to keep them cropped in my camera's default 3:2 aspect ratio for people who want to buy 4x6 prints.
    So what I do when I open all my images in Bridge's Camera RAW browser is fit and crop any images that need cropping but using the 3:2 aspect ratio. I then need to check to see if my crop will work as an 8x10 crop picture so that nobody's heads are cut off, etc. The problem Bridge is giving me is that when I crop the first time it doesn't allow me to check another crop without losing the original first crop. For example, I do my first crop as an 3:2 aspect ratio and then when I click on 5:4 to check for 8x10 prints it resizes the crop area which lets me check the crop for 5:4 but when I go back to 3:2 it doesn't go back to the original crop so I have recrop the original crop from memory. Is there any way to solve this problem? Basically crop it twice without loosing the first crop so that I can go back.
    Also is there any way to quickly click on all aspect ratios like 5x7, 8x10, etc and have the crop centered in the image so that I can quickly check if anything is cut off? My lab is a high volume automated photo lab so they crop by using the center of each picture and I can only give them one image per person. Most of my images don't need cropping because I try to do it in camera but I have to check to see if they will fit for other crop sizes. Currently Bridge makes me create the crop size manually and then visually center the crop over my image. I would prefer quick buttons that when clicked on will show me what the crop will look like in different crop ratios. Is there anyway to do that?
    Thanks for any help you can give me

    You might want to try this in Adobe Lightroom (it uses the same Camera Raw
    engine as PS and Bridge).
    In the develop mode you can use the crop tool with presets and custom
    options that works faster and has an easier and better history tool to
    retrieve your original crop setting than Camera raw in Bridge and PS has to
    offer.
    I would prefer quick buttons that when clicked on will show me what the crop
    will look like in different crop ratios. Is there anyway to do that?

  • Export Self-Contained / Sequence / Aspect Ratio Question

    Hello all,
    I have source clips, that look like this, with a command+I in quicktime:
    Format: 24-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
    DVCPRO HD 1080i60, 1280 x 1080 (1888 x 1062), Millions
    FPS: 23.98
    Normal Size: 1888 x 1062 pixels
    Current Size: 1888 x 1062 pixels (Actual)
    Now, in FCP, I have to chop this source up into smaller clips, so as I set in and out points, I drag to my sequence, and let FCP adjust the sequence settings to match the clip. It auto-adjusts to:
    Frame Size: 1280x1080
    Aspect Ratio: HD (1280x1080) (16:9)
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1280x1080)
    Compressor: DVCPRO HD 1080i60
    Audio: 48khz, 24-bit, Channel Grouped
    When I export my clip, I want little/no processing of the source file, and want the aspect ratio to be locked at the highest quality possible, with no funky pixel aspects ratios, etc. So, I export a Quicktime Movie (no Quicktime conversion) with "Current Settings", and I make the clip self contained.
    The output ends up as follows:
    Format: DVCPRO HD 1080i60, 1280 x 1080 (1888 x 1062), Millions
    24-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
    FPS: 23.98
    Normal Size: 1920 x 1080 pixels
    Current Size: 1920 x 1080 pixels (Actual)
    So, obviously the pixel aspect ratio has done something in the export, as the original size was 1888 x 1062 and is now 1920 x 1080.
    Is there a way to process these clips on export from FCP, where the pixel is a normal 1:1 conversion, be it at 1280x1080, 1888x1062 or 1920x1080 with DVCPRO HD 1080i60, in FCP? Or is this something I have to achieve in Compressor? I'm looking for the Quicktime info on the resulting clip to return the same size for: Format, Normal Size, Current Size.
    Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    I have read this post over and over and there are some strange things going on with analyzing media now. I am absolutely sure that my HD footage (from a Z1U) used to be read by QT at 1440x1080 (1920x1080). Actual pixels were 1440x1080, a 4x3 aspect ratio, but displayed at 1920x1080. Used to be, like I said. I recently upgraded to OS 10.6.4, and QT 10 is quite a bit different. (In fact, other that the new skin, I haven't found any new features I like. Beside the point.) Now I get a QT readout like yours: 1440x1080 (1888x1062). A 4x3 capture aspect ratio and a 16x9 display aspect ratio, but not the same numbers. This can't be right--by law one of them has to be incorrect. I suspect the new version of QT. The same clip in FCP is read as as 1440x1080 with the HDV pixel aspect ratio (Edit --> Item Properties --> Format.) Furthermore, the readout from MediInfo Mac (endorsed by Apple) is even stranger: 1416x1062, a 4x3 aspect ratio, betraying yet another suspect data output. May be MediaInfo is correct, maybe not. I suspect no--my gut says FCP is correct, since it was once matched by QT. So, three analyzations and three results. The only conclusion is one or more of the analyzers is incorrect.
    I suspect that the data readout in QT 10 is questionable. According to the Z1U manual, the camera records at 1440x1080, QT and FCP have this correct, but MediaInfo Mac does not. But the display raster information, as read by QT 10, has changed from 1920x1080 to 1888x1062.
    So, I did a test. I followed the same procedure you did, including letting FCP set the Sequence Settings (it was correct). The QT 10 data readout from the exported movie was, like yours, 1440 x 1080 (1888 x 1062). Same results when I forced the Sequence Settings to HDV 1060i first. [FCP 6.0.6, QT 10.0 (114) ]. This was consistent with the QT 10 readout for the original, raw media.
    My conclusion? Your movie is fine, there was no Pixel Aspect Ratio manipulation. The data readout in QT 10 is wrong. Sounds like a bug to me. I'd say MediaInfo Mac also has a problem--maybe they are both "drinking from the same poisoned well" somewhere deep inside the code.
    Last resort: if you have access to an older version of QT, try getting the readout from that. I'm going to. If you'd like to know the results, let me know.
    One thing you must do: check the Pixel Aspect Ratio in your edited sequence:
    [Sequence --> Settings --> General --> Pixel Aspect Ratio]
    Make sure yours is set to HD (1280x1080). Actually, check your camera manual to determine what it should be and make sure FCP is matching it. If not, force it.

  • Crop Aspect Ratio, width, height, resolution locks up

    I am running PSE6 on an XP PC platform.
    This anomaly happens about 75% of the time.
    After processing a batch of raw images in Camera Raw, highlighting them and clicking on Open Image to open the converted images in PSE, I sometimes find I cannot open the Crop Aspect Ratio selection drop-down box.  Nor can I type in changes to Width, Height, and Resolution fields--I can, however change the values by using the sliders that appear when I mouseover the Width, Height or Resolution titles, but even that's limited--whatever is to the right of the decimal point remains unchanged.
    I've also experienced this Crop "lock-out" when just opening JPEG/TIFF/PSD images directly from the image file folder.
    The only way I have found to clear this anomaly has been to close and reopen PSE.  Today, for the first time, that didn't fix the problem.  It came up with Crop locked up.
    Has anyone else run into this?  If so, what, if any, solution is there?
    Thanks,

    First try clicking the little arrow at the far left of the options bar and choosing reset tool. If that doesn't do it, quit the editor, then restart it while holding down ctrl+alt+shift. Keep holding the keys till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
