Raw images from 1GX are rendering soft in Aperture - crystal clear on Lightroom

I have just upgraded to a Canon 1Gx MK II as my point & shoot. RAW images are rendering terribly soft in Aperture - crystal clear in Lightroom. Any ideas?

Have you in-camera settings applied, when you take your RAW photos? Aperture will ignore any of the in-camera settings when developing the RAW.
Have a look at Keith Barkley's User Tip. See this link:
The Big Three: Setting your camera for the best Aperture RAW results
Also, you may want to check the RAW Fine Tuning settings in the Adjustments panel. Perhaps these setting have been changed from the default values.

How set Elements9 Organizer as default to upload raw images from card reader? Defaults to Lightroom

How do I set Elements9 Organizer as my default to upload raw images from computer's sd card reader? It defaults to Lightroom.

The two raw files you've uploaded to dropbox are corrupted so Lightroom and Photoshop are giving you the correct message. At least with these two, the embedded JPG preview is there but the raw data is not correct so cannot be rendered. Here is the error that Canon's own software gives when the files are attempted to be edited:
You should reattempt to copy the images from the memory cards to your computer using a card reader and an operating-system function (Explorer or Finder) to do it rather than LR or a cable connected to the camera, then see if things work any better. If you already used a card reader, then try a different one and see if the situation improves.
If you cannot get a better set of images by retransferring them, then we can work through how to extract the embedded JPG previews en masse.

I'm unable to download RAW images from my Canon Rebel T2i to my flash drives. JPEGS are fine. WHY?

Suddenly I'm unable to download my RAW images from my Canon Rebel T2i to my flash drives when just a few weeks ago I was able to. What happened? I can download JPEGS just fine. No error codes, software works like normal, i see the previews and when i go to my flash drives to open the files the dated file is there but it opens with no images. I've reformatted the memory card twice now, so that's not the problem. Any ideas from all my new friends out there. Thank you.

We may need more info. What are your flash drives? What are you using to copy? What computer/OS do you use?
Normally a file is a file... a computer doesn't care what type of file it is. Whether or not any software knows how to hope the file wont impact the computer's ability to copy it. This makes me wonder if it is being copied, but can't be opened (e.g. if the software you are using doesn't know how to deal with a Canon T2i RAW file (.CR2).
RAW is more of a "concept" than a "standard". Every camera model's RAW file will be slightly different. If you want to open an image in, say, Photoshop... they provide "Adobe Camera RAW" updates for their software and you'd need the update that supports your T2i (btw, when Adobe releases a "new" version of software, they tend to stop providing RAW updates for all previous versions of that software. So depending on what version of software you use... the only way to get it to work with RAW may involve having to upgrade the software (there are some cumbersome work-arounds.))

RAW images from D300 appear as thumbnails in Bridge

I have CS3 and ACR 4.5 and Windows XP, for the past month all RAW files from D300 have loaded perfectly and opened fine. Yesterday, I loaded files and they appear only as thumbnails in Bridge. I am not able to rotate, or apply any adjustments to these thumbnails. If I double-click them, they open as RAW files in ACR, and I can proceed and work on them as I normally would.
Another strange thing: all of the other files I have loaded from my D300 now react the same way, even though they were perfectly fine before. Images from D2x are fine.
Should I try to uninstall/reinstall Bridge? Any other suggestions? There have been similar threads here, but not this specifically.
thanks
alan

I just experienced the same phenomenon. It actually started in the middle of a session working in the Bridge. Other then the thumbnail appearing there were a couple of other strange symptoms I noticed when this happened to me.
1. If first happened to some files, then got worse as I went back and forth between folders. However, it never effected all the raw files. Some stayed as normal.
2. It effected .ORF files and .DNG files equally.
3. For both files effected and those not effected it created a corresponding .XMP file in the folders
4. If used the DNG converter to convert the ORF files to DNG the resulting DNG files appeared as normal thumbnails.
In any event the reset suggested by Curt did work, and restored everything back to normal.

Cannot open camera RAW images from Sony DSC-RX100M3 camera. Working on a Mac with Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw 6.7?

Bruce,
When I made the transition to digital some 8 years ago, I had tremendous help from a number of well documented websites, among which:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com
I think a lot of stuff there to get you seriously going. Another one is:
http://www.computer-darkroom.com
I sold all my film based stuff, except a Nikon F3 and a handful of lenses and a Paterson developing tank.
The Nikon suspiciously smells like foam mirror damping strips chemically decaying.
I sold my enlarger over the internet. The word "enlarger" caused me to be on SpamCops blacklist for a while.
I'm in this since the seventies, and I think you'll be as amazed as I was at the possibilities and control you have. And no more bags with $300 worth of film that's consumed in one shoot.
Jump in both feet! you won't be sorry. And these forums are the best help you can get.
Good luck,
Rob

I have my camera (Canon 5D Mark 2) set to take both JPEG Large and Raw files with each shot. I uploaded the images from the card to my Pro (Aperture 3) and while the import info said 1500 images were uploaded, I can't find the RAW images. Aperture put about 700 images in an untitled project folder, but all the images are the JPEGs. What am I missing?
Thanks,

Have you checked your "Import" settings for "Raw&Jpeg" pairs in the "Import" panel?
You can set Aperture to import raw, jpeg, or raw&jpeg.
If you imported Raw&Jpeg, but have set Aperture to use the Jpeg as original, you will see the imported image as Jpeg image, not as a raw image, even if the raw has also been imported. You can switch between Raw and Jpeg originals for selected images from the Photos menu:
Photos > Use Raw as original.

Problem with the RAW images from Canon 5d Mark III

hope you are doing good. i need your opinion regarding a phenomena i am observing in the RAW images from Mark iii.
The following images appear to be absolutely correct in the camera and when viewed through a picture viewer.
I have tried and tested the following scenarios:
1. Used a medium speed kingston CF Card (new) and transferred the images through the USB cable supplied with the camera.
2. Thought the card might be slow OR faulty.. used Sandisk Extreme and Extreme Pro SD Cards but same result.
3. Transferred SD Card data through the builit in laptop card reader.
4. Have directly imported the images from SD Card into Lightroom 4.3, copied the data firstly to laptop HDD and then imported, copied the SD card data to an external HDD and then copied. .... same result!!
5. Have tried the same with both Win7 and Mac OS.
6. The DPP sw that came with the camera gives the error of 'Decoding Failed' with these images.
Usually 10-15 images out of 100 give this kinda pattern. so i was hoping if you can guide me what is going wrong here !!!

The camera and PictureViewer are likely showing you the embedded JPG, while DPP and LR are decoding the raw data which appears to be corrupted. Assuming you have formatted your SD cards in the camera and the issues are always in the same positions in the same images when you transfer them multiple times from the card to different computers via different methods, then the data is on the card that way.
If the embedded JPG is ok then the sensor is ok, so something between the sensor-readout and the storage on the card appears to be failing intermittently, and it’s time to talk to Canon, I think.

Importing RAW images from Canon EOS 550D

I've used iPhoto 8 (version 7.1.5) with a Canon Powershot. Everything working fine.
I just bought a Canon EOS 550D. Importing JPEG files is OK; But iPhoto refuses to import the RAW images from the 550D.
How can I solve this problem ?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That camera is new and not supported as yet by either Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475?viewlocale=en_US
or Snow Leopard - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3825.
Evidently the camera is so new that even the Adobe Camera RAW converter doesn't support it yet - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html
You'll have to use another application that does recognize that format or shoot the highest quailty JPEG the camera provides until support is offered.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Importing RAW images from Canon 450D SLR

I run iPhoto 6 and I have recently updated my digital SLR from a Canon 300D to a 450D. I was able to import CRW Raw files from the 300D but iPhoto will not import Raw images from the 450D (jpegs are ok), which are now coded CR2 instead of CRW. I note that there is a Raw image software update, available but this is only for iPhoto 8. Short of updating to iPhoto 8 is there another solution?

I was afraid that might be the answer, but many thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I'm thinking of buying a new camera. Does anyone know if can I process RAW images from a Nikon D5100 or Nikon D3200 using IPhoto on a OSX 10.5.8?

I'm thinking of buying a new camera. Does anyone know if can I process RAW images from a Nikon D5100 or Nikon D3200 using IPhoto on a OSX 10.5.8?

I think you'll note that Google found the list for 10.8, amazing, isn't it
No, neither are supported for Raw on 10.5.8
You'll need 10.6.8 minimum for the D5100
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3825
and for the D3200 you'll need 10.7.4 plus compatibility update 3.1.3
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757
Bear in mind that you may also need to update your version of iPhoto too.

See:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
You need the 8.2 version of the ACR module, and PS10 is too old to be updated.
So, you can choose between 3 solutions:
- update PSE to PSE12
- use the Canon software to convert the raw files to the tiff format which PSE10 can handle
- download and install the free Adobe DNGconverter which is able to convert a whole folder of CR2 raw files to the Adobe DNG raw format which PSE10 can handle.
The last two solutions are free.

Can I download Elements plugin for Processing RAW images from Sony ILCE6000?

Can I download Elements plugin for Processing RAW images from Sony ILCE6000?

If you are using PSE 12 or 13, just go to Help>Updates in the editor.

Before purchasing Elements 12, I would like to know if it will process RAW images from an Olympus OMD-EM1. Can someone advise? or tell me how to find out?

Hi,
This document defines the supported cameras
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
According to that, the OM-D E-M1 is supported by Camera Raw 8.3 which is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12. You should try the trial download first to make sure you are happy with it.
Once you have downloaded and installed the trial version you will need to go to the help menu and select Updates..
If you decide to buy it, you can convert the trial version to the full version by supplying the new serial number.
I would avoid the Mac App version and don't get the upgrade version unless you have an older version.
Good luck
Brian

I cannot import RAW images from my Nikon Df.

Hello,
I have a late '11 Macbook Pro that currently has OSX 10.7.5 and iPhoto version 9.2.1 and for some reason I cannot import RAW images from my Nikon Df memory card.
I don't know if I have something wrong in my settings or if my current iPhoto and/or OSX needs to be upgraded. Is there anyone here that would be so kind to help this technically challenged old man and tell me what I need to do?
Many thanks!

You'll need OS 10.9 Mavericks and Camera Raw update 5.0.2 and Aperture version 3.4.5 or later, or iPhoto version 9.4.3 or later, is required to install this update.
The good news is that all those updates are free as you have 10.7.
As always, back up all data before upgrading anything.
