Raw files distorted

Some of my RAW files that import in iPhoto are distorted until I click the edit button and it fixes the problem, but when I try to share them to iCloud it shares the distorted picture.  How do I fix this?

How are you sharing to iCloud? My Photo Stream or a Shared Stream?  And where are you viewing the stream?  On a mobile  device ( iPad, iPhone) or a Mac?
The iOS devices cannot develop the RAW. They use the embedded preview JPEGs in the RAW files. From the description of your problem it looks like the embedded JPEGs in your RAW files are distorted. When you edit the photo, iPhoto will create a new preview, and that is o.k., bur it will not replace the  embedded JPEG preview in your RAW files.
To make sure, you are uploading the edited versions to your Photo Stream, disable "Automatic Upload" to the photo stream., because automatic upload will share the photos before you get any chance to edit them.  Share the photos manually, using the "Share" menu.

  • Olympus E-P1, RAW files, barrel distortion and Snow Leopard

    I currently use Aperture 2.0, a MacbookPro, and a new Oly E-P1.  I have just returned from a trip to Spain with over 1000 RAW files.  Aperture won't recognize them.  Tricking Aperture into accepting them as E-30 RAWs leaves in huge barrel distortion issues. Always silent Apple won't even say if they're working on recognizing them in an upcoming release.  The native OLY RAW converters mostly correct the barrel distortion with funny math in their extremely lame Olympus Master 2 that came with the camera.  Raw Photo Processor (which I was counting on to save me) which will recognize the files, also leaves in barrel distortion.
    I understand that the latest Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 will read Oly E-P1 RAW files.  I see no way to use Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 without upgrading my current Photoshop from CS to CS4 and purchasing Lightroom.  Total cost, about $400.  I might be willing (as an amateur) to do this, as I probably need to upgrade to CS4 anyway, BUT, I understand through a little digging on the web, that I will probably have to downgrade my OS from OS X v. 10.6 (Snow Leopard) apprently not supported by Adobe yet.  Both of these will be a major commitment of time and money.
    I would like to make sure that the Adobe Camera Raw 5.5 does indeed correct the barrel distortion first.  Anybody out there using it?  Also, if anyone has any other suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    If you want to try, just download the LR 2.5 demo version from the Adobe Website. You don't need to upgrade Photoshop. Lightroom will work just fine by itself, even when using CS as the external editor as it contains the full ACR raw rendering kernel and you can just have Lightroom render tifs to be sent to PS. Also, Lightroom and CS4 work perfectly fine on 10.6. Lightroom should be run in 32-bit mode for the time being if you need the tight Photoshop integration, but that is about it. I don't know where you got the info that you would need to downgrade. That is simply false.

  • Raw files imported distorted with Lightroom 3

    Hey,
    In the last months I started experiencing an issue with Lightroom 3 (is the software that came with my camera) that didn't have at the beginning and AFAIK nothing has changed after I isntalled the lastest version of lightroom 3 and the camera raw plugin.
    Recently pretty much every picture I import comes with shifted bands. I know the raw files are ok because other computers load the file correctly. You can see in the car wheel the kind of shifting I am suffering.
    Exporting the file to a different format will save the file with the distortion, so it is not just visual.
    In all honesty, I don't know how to tackle this, I tried to install any possible updates for camera raw which didn't work and I fear that reinstalling the software might not work or just do temporally till it breaks again. Any tips will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    When you compare the files on other computers and they are ok, are you reading them onto the second computer from the camera memory card in a card-reader or USB-cable attached to the camera, or from some other step further along in the transfer process, such as from one computer’s hard-drive to another?
    Anything that happens after the last shared step is suspect. 
    If you are reading them from the memory card again and they are ok on the second computer, then what happens if you copy the photos, again, onto the first computer?  Do the same ones have the same faults in the same locations or are the faults different?  If the latter, then something in the transfer process (USB drivers/cable) or the computer, itself (memory, hard-drive), is bad.
    If you remove and re-import the files do they still have the same faults in the same locations?  If you purge your camera-raw cache and re-develop do the same faults show up?  If not then perhaps wherever your raw cache is, is corrupted.
    If you want you can try posting one of the files that has been imported into LR and is bad, here, and others can try it on their systems, to make sure the data in the file is bad.
    By “posting one of the files” I mean upload it to a large-file-hosting service like www.dropbox.com and then post the public download link, here.

  • Does Aperture Correct Lens Distortion with Panasonic Raw Files?

    I have a Panasonic GF1. When shooting in JPEG I know that the camera adjust for barrel distortion on the saved image. However It does not for RAW images as far as I know.
    I am aware that Adobe reluctantly added the software correction to Adobe Camera Raw for Panasonic cameras that need this for their RAW files to look correct, even though technically the file is no longer RAW after this adjustment. The information needed to do these corrections is encoded in the RAW file. So! I am wondering if Aperture does this correction to imported RAW files now that it supports The GF1?
    Heres a more in depth look at the distortion issue: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/PanasonicGF1/page19.asp

    As a DMC-G1 owner, I thought that RAW conversions were fully supported now. Turns out that my perception seems to have been only partly true.
    I fired up SilkyPix again (thought I'd seen that for the last time!) and checked what corrections it offers. In the 'Lens aberration controller', there are three controls: Shading (angle and amount), Distortion (distortion rate and centre) and Chromatic Aberration (R rate and B rate).
    Aperture only exposes controls for the [Chromatic Aberration|http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#cha pter=17%26section=11|Working with the Chromatic Aberration Controls] (red/cyan and blue/yellow) - this can be applied globally or brushed in selectively.
    There doesn't appear to be any access to shading or distortion as there is in SiklyPix, though - at a quick glance and I could be wrong - Aperture's [Devignette|http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#ch apter=17%26section=4|Working with the Devignette Controls] tool appears to provide a similar function to the description of the Shading tool in SiklyPix.
    If there's distortion correction automatically going on behind the scenes - you did mention the embedded correction information in the RAW file - then it's not obvious. There's certainly no user control that I have seen.
    Hope this helps...

    Unfortunately, the NEX-6 requires camera raw 7.2 and the NEX-7 requires camera raw 6.6 neither of which are not compatible with Photoshop Elements 9.03.
    You need to upgrade your Photoshop Elements to version 11 or later or you can use the free Adobe DNG converter.
    The DNG converter is a standalone program which will take a folder containing your ARW files and converts them to DNG raw files. The DNG files can then be read by Photoshop Elements 9.03.

  • Issues with NAS, iPhoto, RAW file format, AEBSn, Leopard

    I think I've isolated it down to a networking stack issue with Leopard, but I was hoping I could get some more thoughts/advice. I don't want to downgrade to Tiger, but I may need to! Either that or host my iPhoto library locally.
    Scenario:
    My iPhoto library was messed up. Some albums were missing and it couldn't seem to find them. Rebuilding my library was giving me errors. So, I decided to start fresh. I created a new library and began importing files. I noticed that my RAW (.CR2) files were showing glitches in them! These were major glitches, like big squares of blue or yellow and distorted pictures. I checked the original pictures, those were fine. I checked the pictures in my new iPhoto library, those files are corrupted! Not the thumbnails, but the files themselves. I opened the file in Photoshop to verify. Yup, busted.
    Attempted Solution:
    I tried downgrading to iPhoto 7.0 from 7.1.1, thinking that that might be the problem. Still having issues with the RAW files. Do I need to downgrade to iPhoto 6? I can't believe that's the answer. Even in iPhoto 7.0, the problem persists.
    Now here's the interesting thing: not all files are broken. Some files work, others don't. Some files are imported without glitches some of the time; reimporting them results in a glitch. That suggests to me that it's a networking problem.
    I'm using 802.11n to an AEBSn2 (gigabit), which has a ReadyNAS NV connected to it by gigabit ethernet. I don't think it's a hardware network thing since everything seemed to work in Tiger.. I think it's a way that Leopard handles the networking stack. Didn't they revise the underlying network stuff for Leopard?
    Help!

    Are you able to switch to 11g? I heard that helps for some people. I haven't tried it yet. Right now, I have about 7500 photos, so I want to copy everything and back it up. Once I get it backed up, I'm going to try other solutions, but it may be a few days before I get anything tested.

  • Aperture Olympus E-PL2 Raw Color Distortion and other issues

    Hello there, Olympus Micro Four Thirds Fans!
    So finally, Apple introduced Olympus E-PL2 Raw Support in Aperture 3. After some testing and troubleshooting there are still some issues remaining that sort of still leave the Raw option unusable for me:
    The Apple Raw developer does not seam to read Olympus gradation curve settings properly. I usually leave the cameras color mode to "natural" which in JPEG gives the Olympus-typical beautiful documentary-style color accuracy. However, in Raw, colors get distorted in the most unpleasant way! Especially the greens get horribly oversaturated.
    Noise reduction settings also are not correctly translated. I'm the type of Raw user who always wants to start from the camera settings chosen and who then wants to be able to tweak settings to perfection just a little bit. But all in all I chose an Olympus camera, because it does deliver superb white balance metering, decent noise reduction and beautiful color gradation right out-of-the-box.
    SPEED! Aperture seems to be horribly horribly slow with Olympus .orf files. Lightroom is easily ten times faster in real-time developing of Raw files.
    Did someone observe the same behaviour? How do you work around these issues, what is the best setup for the apple raw developer?
    Greetings from Esslingen am Neckar!

    Hi there!
    I am now developing my raw files with Olympus Viewer. It is the only software solution that would deliver results close or identical to Olymus built in JPEG engine. Most of the time I need to get color reproduction that is as subtle and fine as the Olympus engine, but I do want to benefit from all the other postprocessing advantages that RAW has to offer.
    Within Aperture I have not been able to get comparable color rendering.

  • Good color/contrast cs4 Bridge; in Camera Raw files are overexposed...

    flat, and color is distorted. When files are opened into photoshop cs4, they appear as they
    do in Camera Raw, awful.
    I have re-downloaded cs4 from the adobe site, but the problem still persists.
    Any thoughts?
    Thank you for all response.

    Maybe you could specify your problem a bit more, not sure I understand it
    now. Maybe you can also deliver a screenshot of the file in Bridge?
    If you have a raw file (do you??) you can change this settings in Camera Raw
    to the desired look before opening in PS. Changes made in Camera Raw will
    reflect in Bridge, they should appear the same.
    If you have changed the default RAW settings they might also cause this
    problem but your originals from camera can also be wrong.
    Hence my question for a bit more explanation.

  • FAQ: Will Lightroom work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?

    What is a raw file?
      A raw file is the unprocessed data that was captured by your camera sensor when you took your picture. The only settings on your camera that apply to this file are aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. This means that any effects you may have applied to the file, such as white balance or black and white, may not appear in Lightroom. Your camera will create a JPEG copy of your raw file with all current settings applied and save that within the raw file for use as a thumbnail by most applications. When you first view a raw file in Lightroom, you will see this thumbnail, then Lightroom will read the raw data and create its own thumbnail, which may have a different appearance.
    How does Lightroom work with raw camera files?
      Lightroom interprets the raw data and makes image information out of it. But every camera has a unique sensor and thus has a unique form of raw file. Even though camera manufactures may use the same file extension each time (e.g. Nikon raw files are always .NEF), each camera model has a different way of storing information. Because of this, we must continually update Lightroom for new cameras. As we add new cameras to the list (over 300 now) we update our published list of supported cameras.
    Will the raw files from my camera work with Lightroom?
      To determine whether your camera is supported by Lightroom, check this list:
    Supported cameras
      Go to Help > Updates to install the latest release. You can also manually download and install Lightroom updates:
    Macintosh
    Windows
    What if I own a previous version of Lightroom?
    Supposing you have a camera that came out after the release of a newer version of Lightroom, so that your version of Elements is no longer recieving updates, you have two basic options:
    Purchase the latest version of Lightroom that supports your camera.
    Use the latest version of the free DNG Converter (for Macintosh or Windows)
    You can convert your files to the universaly compatible DNG format (the files will work with any version of the Lightroom). See In depth : Digital Negative (DNG) for more information.

    Can I perform tethered capture from my camera to Lightroom?
      Lightroom has the ability to automatically import images from your camera, as you shoot, life. To learn more about setting up and useing tethered capture, please see Import photos from a tethered camera. This list shows all the cameras that Lightroom supports for tethered shoooting:
    Tethered camera support | Lightroom 4, 3

      For more assistance on Tethered Shooting:
    Adobe TV - Import photos from a tethered camera
    Will Lightroom help me automatically compensate for the image distortion caused by my camera lens?
      The Develop module of Lightroom includes Lens Correction which can read what lens was used from the metadata. With this information it can pick a profile that will reduce distortion caused by the curvature of the lens. For a list of which lenses are supported by which camera bodies, see this list:
    Lens profile support | Lightroom 4, 3
      If your lens is not currently supported, you have a few options:
    Apply the lens correction manually
    Use the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader (Download: Mac, Win) to see if someone else has created a profile your camera and lens
    Use the Adobe Lens Profile Creator (Download: Mac, Win) to make your own profile for your camera and lens.

  • I just bought the Nikon D750 and my raw files will not open in CC Photoshop. Is anyone else that has this camera experienced this problem?

    I just bought the Nikon D750 and my raw files will not open in CC Photoshop. Is anyone else that has this camera experienced this problem?
    My Photoshop says it is up to date, but I am hoping that since this camera just came out, Adobe will have an raw file update soon.

    DNG Converter is FREE.  Yes, really.  No subscription needed.
    - Baloney, NOT FREE, it's a proprietary software, not open AT ALL, see Legal Notices, so stop trying to distort the truth here.
    Camera Raw (& DNG Converter) 8.7RC has been available since 2nd October, and opens D750 files in Photoshop & Bridge (& Lightroom using DNG Converter).
    Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 8.7 Release Candidate | digital camera raw file support - Adobe Labs
    - Still a cumbersome process for this of us that PAID for software and support, the whole point of this discussion is to implement this directly on LR, so we, the PAYING users don't have to waste time doing a useless process that could be EASILY AVOIDED ig Adobe released updates as they are needed, or if they OPENED THE SOURCE CODE so the community could do it.
    Adobe created DNG, which is a well-documented backwards-compatible format, which is free for any manufacturer to use.
    See here for manufacturers who do (it's an old list, but you get the idea):
    http://www.barrypearson.co.uk/articles/dng/products_cameras.htm
    - Really? Did you actually read the site? It has PRECIOUS information that illustrate my point: Adobe DNG is an attempt to stop the OpenSource community from achieving the goals of OpenRaw, which is TRUE OPENNESS, Again, Adobe is trying to get manufacturers to PAY LICENSING so they use a PROPRIETARY FORMAT that will HOLD CUSTOMERS on a PAID platform. OpenRaw is he answer for a true competitive environment.
    Ask yourself why other manufacturers don't use a documented backwards-compatible format.
    - Easy, because they are lazy and want kick-back. The SAME answer that I (and the entire OS community) would give if you asked about Acrobat or MS Office.
    If you use a particular piece of software as your main tool, and you buy a camera which isn't yet supported by it, it's your problem. There is an expression used in the industry:
    "Poor Planning on your part does not constitute an Emergency on my part."
    - I agree here, it's MY PROBLEM that I decided to have a better product, it was my choice. I can still use OS Tools, which will be what I do moving forward, and about that expression, that is EXACTLY why Adobe will keep loosing customers, because the sense of urgency to help who pays their bills is inexistent. You are correct, why should they rush something so simple to help a customer right? Screw the customer... Thanks for making my point...

    I'm having troubles converting my raw files from Nikon D5200 (NEF) to DNG. I tried using Lightroom 4, but it didn't identify the folder containing the files. So i downloaded the latest DNG converter but that too didn't identify the files kept in the folder location. So I downloaded DNG converter v7.3 for D5200. It identifies the folder and files; but it is giving me parsing error on trying to convert files. I'm running Windows Vista Home Edition SP1. Kindly advise. Thank you.

    I probably missed this detail in what you’ve posted, but do you see the thumbnails of the three cameras’ raw files in Finder if you don’t convert to DNG?
    What has happened in the past is that the Apple raw interpreter doesn’t read thumbnails of DNGs it doesn’t like, where at least one thing it didn’t used to like was embedded lens corrections for mirrorless cameras.  Are the Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless—meaning there is no optical viewfinder and everything is seen on an LCD screen or perhaps an electronic view finder?  If so the reason these are different is that the camera is doing the lens distortion corrections automatically and this information is stored in the raw files and in the DNGs but Apple doesn’t know how to use these embedded lens corrections or doesn’t know how to read the newer DNG spec that does allow for this information to be embedded in the DNG, at least.
    Apple could just extract the embedded jpg preview and ignore the other parts of the file it doesn’t understand, but it apparently doesn’t do this.
    What I’m not sure about is if the Apple raw interpreter still has this problem or if you’re on an older system without the latest updates for camera raw decoding by Apple.

  • Fuji X-10 RAW files in Lightroom mobile

    Hi!
    I have encountered a strange issue with files from my wive's Fuji X-10.
    I synched them to Lightroom mobile and they seem to display fine, but when I try to edit them, they get distorted and the the picture is not updated with the edit. When I switch to a different picture an back it looks normal again and after a couple of minutes the preview is updated with the changes.
    this is how it looks like:
    Obviously my wife is not overly satisfied with this workflow
    Any pointers on how I could use these files in Lightroom mobile?
    tks

    I enounter the same problem from my X10 RAW-files.
    It is rather frustrating.
    I wait until .....

  • Fuji X10 raw image distorted

    Adobe raw for the fuji X10 outputs a distorted image, the image is also cropped horizontally.
    When opening a X10 raw file (.RAF) in adobe raw, the following unexpected results:
    about 3% is cropped from horizontal field of view (symmetrical, both sides)
    the image is then "stretched" to fit the horizontal resolution
    the status indicates a dimension of 6144 x 4608 pixels (the open dialog showed 4000 x 3000)
    the image is stored as 6144 x 4608 pixels
    Attached are 2 images, 1 converted by the camera, the other by adobe raw.
    Converted by camera:
    Converted by adobe raw (version 6.6.0.261):
    I find this quite annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    You are right!
    Somewhere in the raw process with both silky and ACR converters pixels at each side are discarded. The pixels of about 1 cm of the yardstick (see picture) are not used. The camera's converter does utilise these pixels, BUT squeezes the image to a 0.96 : 1 ratio. This ratio is 1:1 longer focal lengths, the "pixel loss" is then nearly 0.
    The pixels might not be output to the raw file or are discarded by the convertors. Perhaps this is done because of quality degradation of corner pixels / coverage at short focal lengths. I'll test to see if it is also related to aperture. NOT an adobe raw issue I should say.
    Lower half of image: more pixels at the sides with jpg from camera
    Image is squeezed when processed by camera

  • Aperture wont open raw files from my panasonic fz18

    Hi Everyone, I have been using aperture 3 for about a year and have no problems opening raw files from my nikon camera but I thought I would use my old panasonic FZ18 when I go kayaking just in case the camera gets wet. To my surprise when I downloaded my raw files into Aperture from my FZ18 they would not open. Is there a codec or program update that will enable Aperture to open my raw files.
    Thanks Colin

    The FZ18, FZ35 and later are not supported by Apple RAW processing mostly due to the exotic barrel distortion correction that needs to be applied for wide angle shots.  Even Adobe DNG converter will not convert the .RW2 files to DNG unless you use dngsanitize to remove the lens correction metadata.  You can then bring the DNG files into Aperture.

  • Corrupted RAW files

    Hello all,
    After taking about 10,500 pictures (99%+ in RAW) with a Canon EOS 20D since getting it last August, my two most recent imports to Aperture have shown some corrupted images.
    My usual workflow is to copy the images to my hard drive, run the Adobe DNG Converter (v3.3) on them (to reduce their size), burn the original RAWs (.CR2) to DVD and remove them from the hard drive, then import the DNG files to Aperture.
    This time, I've seen half a dozen files with visible corruption. It looks like a block of pixels, approximately square (although several of them may be adjacent to one another making the corrupted area look like a rectangle or an L).
    On one of them, I located the original RAW (.CR2) file and also imported it. That file is actually NOT corrupted and looks just fine.
    So, I don't know what the problem may be. It could be any of these listed next. Perhaps anyone has seen this and resolved it before?
    *) DNG converter messed up the conversion
    *) Disk corruption on the DNG file
    *) Aperture doesn't read the DNG file correctly (although I've tried both 1.0 and 1.1)
    *) Something else I haven't thought of
    I welcome any thoughts on the matter.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Doug, I have been experimenting with the DNG format lately and how Aperture handles it. I have a Nikon D2X and shoot 100% RAW. Normally, I bring my .NEF RAW files from the memory card directly into Aperture. Importing the RAW files directly this way has been no problem. Neither has first copying the RAW files from the camera card to my hard drive, and then importing them into Aperture.
    However, I have been using another program lately that enhances the RAW files from my camera, and the only RAW format it outputs is DNG. So naturally, I have run a number of my RAW files through this program, created the DNGs and imported them into Aperture. The results were not pretty. The imported DNGs were no bigger than a thumbnail with added noise and visible distortion. I have also read these exact same DNG files into Adobe Camera Raw and they were rendered perfectly.
    I next converted the same original RAW files to DNG using Adobe's DNG converter (both 3.3 and 3.4) and read them into Aperture. The Adobe converted DNG files were all fine. No visible signs of problems even at the highest magnification.
    I presume that you have tried reconverting the same RAW files to DNGs again and retried the import into Aperture with the same results.
    I think your first and third conclusions on what is wrong were right. There is something about the makeup of the original pictures that the DNG converter can not handle properly. This problem is not enough to affect working with these DNG files in Camera Raw, but it is for Aperture. Aperture seems to be especially sensitive to how DNGs are constructed. The slightest thing wrong with an image file (either in its construction or EXIF information) and Aperture can not properly process and render the image.
    I would say that disk corruption is very unlikely.
    Until DNG is fixed in Aperture, I will only import my native RAW files into Aperture.
