Problem Using DNG converter Vers 3.5

Converted images from canon 1ds mark11 and Nikon d2xs and images only appear as large as thumbnaills from both cameras.I know the D2xs is not supported yet but this problem has now occured with the Canon, Any advice ?

That doesn't work for me. I created the DNGs directly from the NEFs and CRWs using the 3.5 converter. I double-checked that all the settings were as per the Apple instructions.
It's clearly a problem with the decoding of DNG files. With DNG version 3.4 and earlier, I get the proper size image, but no white balance information. With 3.5 I get the "as shot" white balance, but only the thumbnail. All versions of DNG open correctly in Adobe Camera Raw and Lightroom (hardly surprising as it is an Adobe format).
Fingers crossed that Aperture 1.5 and/or 10.4.8 will resolve this. However, I suspect that as long as camera RAW formats remain closed, proprietary, and even encrypted (à la the D2X) RAW decoding issues will remain for all vendors.

  • Loupe in Bridge doesn't display DNG images created using DNG Converter correctly. Why?

    I have noticed recently an anomaly in Bridge when viewing DNG files that are created by converting my Nikon NEF files to DNG using the DNG converter. Specifically, when clicking on the preview image of a DNG file, in order to open the loupe, the 100% image seen in the loupe remain fuzzy, whereas when clicking on a preview of the original NEF file the 100% view in the loupe is sharp and clear.
    I am using DNG Converter version 4.6.0.3, and it also occurs when using version 4.4.1. I am using Bridge version 2.1.1.9.
    I have no reason to believe that Bridge is at fault, since the loupe function does work properly when viewing the NEF file. It would seem that there's a problem in the DNG conversion.
    However, despite this anomaly seen in Bridge, when I open the DNG file in Camera Raw, it is perfectly normal at 100% or any magnification.
    I have tried re-setting the JPEG review size in the DNG converter, but that makes no difference.
    What's going on here? I don't want to keep both the NEF and DNG versions, for reasons of space, but I'd like the loupe to work correctly. Help, please?

    Try to recreate the thumbnails for that folder.
    Use the latest version of the converter (5.4)

  • DNG Converter ver. 6.4 does not recognize NX100 .SRW files

    I downloaded/installed DNG converter ver. 6.4 on my iMac with updated OS-X 10.6+. It installed okay, but it will not recognize my NX100 .SRW RAW files. They are grayed out, so unselectable.  The ReadMe file says the NX100 is covered with this version, so what am I missing?
    As a side note, I also have a copy of Lightroom 3, and it has the latest ACR, so it can read the .SRW files, but I would like to try using the DNG converter so other software I have could be used for editing.  The DNG converter should let me quickly convert my .SRW files for this purpose, without having to first process them through LR 3.  Could this be the roadblock, having ACR also installed?
    thanks,
    Dennis

    In addition, you can also use Lightroom to do the conversion.
    You just select the files you want to convert and then click Library > Convert Photo(s) To DNG
    In fact, you can select your entire library and convert them all to DNG.  You don't need to make sure to only select RAW files, because there is an option to "Only Convert RAW Files".  So, why not just select everything?
    Using Lightroom to do the conversion also gives you the ability to convert specific individual files, instead of needing to select an entire directory, if that's what you'd like to do.

  • Problems opening DNG converted file in Photoshop CS3

    I have used Adobe DNG Converter 5.4 to convert my Panasonic DMC-FX150 raw images. The conversion goes well, but the resulting file throws an error when opening in PSCS3: Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file.
    The only thing I can think of is that the images were taken in the 16:9 aspect ratio.
    Lightroom will render the image to a tiff, which I can then open in PS, but this is a PITA.
    Is the 16:9 ratio unsupported in CS3? appoligies for not pre-searching the forum other than looking for "16:9"

    well, problem is back. DNG radomly failing to process all images. I took 6 pictures all at the same settings, and out of the 6, only two converted successfully. No errors in DNG, but in Finder, for the files that don't open in PSCS3 don't have thumbnail icons.

  • After using DNG converter, Lightroom still won't recognize and import my photos...

    I just started shooting with a Sony A6000 and couldn't import the photos due to compatibility issues with my current version of lightroom (4.4).  After reading about it on the forums I found that I had to either download LR5 or use the DNG converter then import into LR.  I opted for the free problem fix and downloaded DNG Converter v8.4 (compatible with Sony A6000).  Now, after converting my freshly shot photos to DNGs, I've tried to import them into Lightroom through both the Copy and Move functions (because I like the file organization I've established through LR) but each time I end up with a dialogue box saying "Could not move a file to the requested location."  When in the import window, LR shows previews of the images clearly. When converting to DNGs, I've ensured the photos are compatible with Camera RAW v7.1 and later (my LR has v7.4) and I've tried both embedding Fast Load Data and not... Also, I'm using a MacBook Pro OS X 10.9 if that makes any difference.  Am I missing something? I don't see what the problem is... All I want to do is organize and edit my new photos from my new camera on LR without having to pay an additional $80 for the new LR just because I have a new camera...

    This could be a permissions issue, especially if you are using a Mac computer. Make sure you have write permission for the folder you are trying to import into.

  • Problem running DNG Converter from command line in Windows XP

    I'm a frustrated user trying to run Adobe DNG converter from the Windows command line - more specifically from a batch file.
    - Am reasonably conversant with writing batch files
    - Have read the PDF file provided by Adobe
    I just can't figure the correct syntax for adding the command line parameters and, unfortunately, the Adobe PDF file doesn't have verbose examples for idiots like me. Nor can I find any such examples on the Net, or any discussion of this problem in the forums.
    The Adobe PDF instructions state...
    "The parameter list includes the conversion options you want to use, followed by the names of the files to convert."
    As there is no switch to prefix 'the names of the files to convert' I assume I just leave a space and include the path to the source files at the end of the parameter list?
    Here is the batch file line I am trying to use...
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe DNG Converter.exe [parameter list]"
    Where I want to specify in the [parameter list] that...
    (a) The destination directory (-d <directory> parameter) is c:\DNG_files
    (b) And the source files are in directory c:\RAW_files
    Here is the batch line with the parameters entered...
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe DNG Converter.exe -dC:\RAW_files c:\DNG_files"
    I've tried variations of this with space between -d and C:\RAW_files and C:\DNG_files\*.* for the source files parameter.
    I just keep getting DOS erros like "The filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect"
    Can anybody help me. I'm clueless how to solve the problem. :-(
    I'm running DNG COnverter version 4.2
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Thanks for responding G Sch.

    DNG Converter did not run.
    If I remove everything after the command (i.e. the parameter list stuff) it fires up DNG Converter in interactive mode. Not what I'm after.

  • Problem w/ DNG Converter 6.6

    I recently downloaded Adobe DNG Converter 6.6 (for Mac OS X10.7) in order to convert Canon's proprietary CR2 images from my Canon 60D camera so that I can use Adobe Bridge (CS4) & ACR (v5.7). When I attempted to convert a folder containing 43 CR2 images, the DNG Converter would "hang up" after about 10 images were converted. This required a "force quit". Same problem occurred when I attempted to convert CR2 images from another folder containing 5 images.
    Thank you kindly for any help or suggestions. I truly appreciate it.

    I just downloaded and installed this version on Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits.
    I can report it works great with my Raw DNG files, from camera:  Pentax K-m/ K2000.
    Probably also with all other Pentax camera's.

  • Big problem with DNG converter

    Hi
    I would like to convert all my RAW CR2 canon to DNG (The format RAW CR2 change every time) and work with my PSE
    I downloded DNG converter 6.5 and make a test but there is a big problème, the date of the .dng is not the date of the RAW, it's date of the convert...for me, it's impossible i want keep the original date.
    Please, could you help me......
    Thanks
    René

    The problem is that the file date is changed by dng converter, when I want to rename the file with DNG as a parameter of the date of creation of the photo, the renamer is in the name of the date of creation dng, it can not go to my ranking of my photos ....
    There are three potential dates with a digital capture, the Date/Time the file was created, the date/time the file was modified and the EXIF metadata Date/Time Original which is recorded by the camera at the moment of exposure. It is this final Date/Time that you would want to use in a name. Any time you create a new file–which is what DNG Converter is designed to do, you'll get a new date/time of that file's creation. That's not something the DNG Converter can change. If you take the DNG into ACR/Lightroom and modify the settings, you'll get a new date/time of the modification. However, the EXIF metadata will still correctly indicate the moment the capture was created in the EXIF Date Time Original tag.
    So, what are you using to rename the files? If you are using Bridge to rename the file, the Date Time option when set to Date Created should be using the EXIF Date Time Original tag as the source of the date/time. Other apps should also be able to be set to use the EXIF Date Time Original tag.

  • Nikon D750...cannot open RAW or use DNG converter.

    Got the new D750. I have CS6 and LR4. I cannot open the RAW files so I read I could convert them to DNGs. Problem is that I have Windows Vista and apparently the DNG converter wont work with Vista. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    It is on our radar and hoping to add it in an upcoming update.
    As soon as it is available, it will be updated in the below article.

  • Noob question use dng converter or let LR convert to dng

    Sorry for the noob question but I'm transitioning over to LR from aperture and I believe DNG is  a good move for me.  Now then, is there any advantage to using the converter over letting LR do it?

    It really is the same integrated tool, yes. All the same preferences are there.
    The only thing I am not aware if Lightroom can do is Extract Embedded Originals. But that's not something I'd ever do to my own RAW files.
    Cheers

  • Can anyone use DNG Converter 8.3 with ARW files?

    Just from installed DNG Converter 8.3 on my MAC running Mavericks and it installed and runs OK.  Problem is I wanted to convert Sony ARW files to DNG from my A7R.  Adobe states support for A7R but when I select a directory containing ARW files they are all greyed out.  Anyone got this to work?  Am I doing something stupid?

    It does recognize all raw files up to the latest group of cameras, but the preferences must be set to create a .dng file that is compatible with your version of Photoshop.
    Perhaps I misunderstood your original post - I interpreted it to say the DNG converter created .dng files, but they were not readable by Photoshop.

  • I have been using DNG converter from the beginning.  But suddenly the bottom part of the interface has disappeared where the Convert button is.  What's happened

    Very strange.  Why would it disappear after all this time

    Very good question.  In fact I have just replaced my monitor with a higher resolution screen.  However it is all irrelevant now as I have cured it.  I uninstalled the old versions of the Converter and installed the latest version 9.  All works ok.  The hardest part was finding where the DNG Converter had squirreled away on my computer.  Eventually found it but I couldn't get access to it through the Control Panel.
    Many thanks for your reply

  • Problem With DNG Converter

    I just installed the DNG converter and can't get it to work.
    When I first installed it, it let me go to the correct folder one time, but after that one time, when I click the Select Folder button I get this error message:
    "There is no disk in the drive.  Insert a disk into drive
    /Device/HardDrive5/DR15"
    It makes no sense to me.
    I'm running Win 7 64bit

    I get a message like this, sometimes, not with the DNG Converter, but just in general, if I leave my card-reader plugged into my computer after I have removed my card, so the computer sortof sees it but not entirely. 
    From your description I would guess that the DNG Converter is remembering the location of your previous conversion and that was on a removable drive or other device, that needs to be plugged in, again.  What was the path for your successful conversion, initially?
    Can you do another conversion from another location or does the error prevent selecting a new location?
