RAW support required for Canon Sureshot S95

Have just bought the new Canon Sureshot S95
after contacting Adobe support I am told Lightroom 3 does NOT support raw files for the
Canon Sureshot S95.
Come on Adobe.....please provide an update asap.

I agree with hoping Adobe provides an update soon.  I check every day - I love my little S95.
There is an interim solution.
Google exiftool by Phil Harvey  (free)
Its a command line editor and will allow you to change the model and camera in your S95  .CR2 file to S90, which LR3.2 will read.  It renames the original .cr2 file to .cr2_original and retains it, and names the creation .cr2.  It allows you to change the model and camera data to S90, which Lightroom 3.2 will read.  Works in batch mode.  Plus you can leave the originals in the same directory as LR3 will not attempt to read the .cr2_original files.
The command line is
exiftool -model="Canon PowerShot S90" -canonmodelID="PowerShot S90" FILE
where file is the individual name or batch
Try it on a test .cr2 file.  Only very slight downside is your EXIF file is tagged as an S90, and you have double the .cr2 files. (New .cr2 & .cr2_original)  You can later use a renaming utility to remove the _original if you so desire.
Seems to work just fine in LR3.2 tho still hoping the next update includes the S95.  This skips having to use DPP to convert to DNG. 
Re worring about if you can read your RAW in 30 years.  First of all, you are using the RAW to adjust to a final jpg or tif correct?  Second, worry if your storage media works or exists in 30 years.  CD's & DVD's have finite lives (using expensive archival disks?) and hard drives....
Hurry Adobe, we're waiting .

  • Camera RAW does NOT yet support raw files for the new  Canon Sureshot S95

    Camera RAW does NOT yet support raw files for the new
    Canon Sureshot S95.
    Adobe, please can you provide an update asap

    Hello!
    I think that you need to be patient.
    There has not been any release of Camera Raw since the release of the camera.
    I recommend to try the next version once it will be released, as there might be preliminary support (and therefore not listed).
    Usually, Adobe is amongs the firsts to support a new camera.
    Even though the Camera Raw team is fielded with wonderful coders, I do not think that they do have a time machine to allow support before they have their hands on a camera

  • Lightroom 3 does NOT support raw files for the  Canon Sureshot S95

    Have just bought the new Canon Sureshot S95
    after contacting Adobe support I am told Lightroom 3 does NOT support raw files for the
    Canon Sureshot S95.
    Come on Adobe.....please provide an update asap.

    (1) Well Boss I did what you said and used Canon DPP to convert to TIFFs. Choices are 8-bit TIFF or 16-bit TIFF - I chose 16-bit because part (90% part) of the reason for wanting to work in RAW is to keep the bit depth of teh original. On my EOS 40D it is supposedly 14 bits, which gives great scope to play with the levels & curves without seeing poster effects. If I choose 16 bit TIFF then each S95 image becomes a 70MB file, parallel to my JPEG and RAW.  Hardly a satisfactory solution.
    (I realise, however, that I don't actually know the bit depth of the S95 RAW file - anybody? ). 
    (2) SUGGESTION-  even if you are adding S95 support to the next update (which I dearly hope), be kinder to those with new cameras in general and allow LR to import JPEGs if it cannot import the RAWs (overriding if necessary the 'ignore JPEG' preference setting).  I am sure users with that preference would still prefer a JPEG than no picture at all!
    Since I discovered this compatibility problem, I switched the camera to record RAW+JPEG*. To my great irritation LR3 ignores the JPEGs even though it cannot load the RAWs.  So if I want to import from one supported camera (EOS40D) and one unsupported camera (S95) I have to keep going into preferences to switch on and off the 'ignore JPEG' function.
    JJ
    *  (this seems to be a setting that needs doing in the various different modes of the camera, by the way).

  • Raw file converter for Canon EOS 5D Mark iii ?

    When will Aperture 3 have a raw file converter for Canon's new 5D model? Should I work with JPEGs in the mean while or is there another better solution?
    Best regards, Markus

    Markus,
    see this long thread
    Canon 5D Mk III - RAW update?
    I would shoot in raw+jpeg while you are waiting and use the Adobe dng converter,
    see Adobe's Camera Raw Converter
    Then, when the raw is supported by Aperture, reprocess your masters.
    Regards

  • When will Lightroom 4 support tethering for Canon EOS 6D?

    Hi, all...
    The Canon 6D is not in the current list of supported cameras for tethering in Lightroom. When will Lightroom 4 support tethering for Canon EOS 6D?
    Thanks
    Steve

    To be clear: Lightroom 4.3 now supports Canon 6D Raw files

    Lightroom still does not yet support tethering for Canon 6D

  • Missing raw file driver for Canon S90

    I miss raw file driver for Canon S90. The software delivered with the camera works, but it doesn't work in finder, Aperure and so on, just in Canons own software. When will the driver be available for SL?

    Apple hasn't said anything about it, but they're always quiet on everything (I think this works to their advantage for new products, but it works to their detriment for product updates.)
    Anyway, they recently released the latest Camera RAW update and surprised a lot of people by not including the S90. Adobe had problems with the S90 -- images would "load" but looked poor. I can only guess Apple also had problems and decided to push it to a later date rather than hold up the whole stack of RAW camera updates people had been waiting on (typically they release an update with support for a list of cameras).

  • Just upgraded to snow leopard, downloader apple support drivers for canon mp620.  Why won't a printer list display in add printer window?

    Just upgraded to snow leopard, downloader apple support drivers for canon mp620.  Why won't a printer list display in add printer window?

    Assuming the MP620 is connected to your wireless network, then there are two components to this device - the printer and the scanner. The printer uses Canon proprietary software while the scanner is supported by Apple's Bonjour service. So in many cases, you will at least see the scanner, shown as Bonjour Scanner in the Kind column, while the printer can take longer to appear and is shown as canonijnetwork in the Kind column. If you cannot see either then you have a network issue. Try turning off the MP620 for a minute and then turning back on. Then see if the scanner / printer component appears in the Add Printer window. If you still don't see either, then confirm the MP and the Mac are using the same network. If you know the MP's IP address you can use Network Utility to Ping the address. You can also enable Bonjour Bookmarks in Safari preferences and when selected, the MP620 should appear.

  • Aperture Recognizing RAW images from newest Canon Camera S95?

    Aperture (3) will not recognize the RAW images form my Canon S95 -- anyone know how to fix this or will Apple come out with an fix? It recognizes RAW from my Canon Xsi. Also iPhoto won't recognize it either.

    RAW support - for any camera - comes from the "Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update" components. These provide central support for any application that reads photo files. The currently supported cameras are listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    In case you're interested, the most recent releases are:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#digital%20camera%20raw%20compatibility%20upd ate%203
    will Apple come out with an fix?
    For Canon, almost certainly. Unfortunately, your only recourse is patience - nobody here can tell you when the next release will be made.

  • When will Raw be updated for Canon Rebel T4i

    When will the Adobe Elements plugin for "RAW" be updated for the newest Rebel camera?

    What version of Elements? To install the most recent update for Camera Raw in Elements (version 7.3 which has support for the T4i) requires Elements 11. Previous versions of Elements can not use Camera Raw 7.3. So, you'll either need to upgrade to 11 or download and use the free DNG Converter to convert the Canon CR2 files to DNG. Go to the Digital Negative page and look for the downloas of the DNG Converter for Mac and Windows.

  • Best RAW Image Processing for Canon Digital Rebel XT - PS Elements 6??

    I'm new to RAW image processing and image editing. I just bought a Canon digital Rebel XT. It comes with Canon Digital Professional 2.1 software. I also have Aperture upgraded to 1.5.6, which I have tried on JPEGs from an earlier digital camera that only gave me JPEG files. Since Aperture doesn't give me as much editing diversity, I purchased the newly released Photoshop Elements 6 (and I don't have any experience with Photoshop). Thus, I now have 3 different RAW image processors. Does anyone have some experience with these 3 to suggest which one is best? The learning curve looks pretty steep, and it would be helpful to know which of these to focus on, at least initially.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Now that you have the Canon DPP installed i would update it to version 3.2 which is at Canons site.
    Now, DPP has the best conversion quality for Canon RAW files. I used it a lot and although limited in what adjustments you have, it offers the essential adjustments and I liked it a lot.
    Aperture also does a great job with Canon RAW files, but version 2.1 is even better
    Photoshop Elements 6 I have not used but I do use Photoshop CS3
    Personally for RAW I prefer Canon DPP over Adobe Camera Raw
    And I prefer Aperture over Adobe Camera RAW too.
    Now that Aperture has improved it's RAW conversion immensely and it offers tethered shooting with the XT, I am using Aperture exclusively to process RAW files.
    An application like Elements or Photoshop CS3 are great if you want to do more advanced layered work and layer blending effects, however, for sepia , black/white, general image color & saturation or desaturated effects and good RAW conversion? I am all about using Aperture.
    Now although I use it on a MBP, I will only do edit and color judging when attached to a cinema display or any good LCD with a DVI connection to the laptop.
    But in conclusion, for RAW adjustments may as well focus on Aperture and use Elements for the few edits that Aperture does not allow.

  • A Glaring Flaw:  RAW Support waits for the OS

    I know how everyone probably talks about the lack of RAW support for newer cameras (D200, even the S2/S3 aren't supported) and I've got a question. Maybe the answer can really help us out.
    RAW file support is OS-level, not Aperture itself. Anyhow, right now we're waiting for OS upgrades to get our cameras supported.
    Why can't it instead have the Aperture updates automatically update the OS resources for RAW file support? Instead of the OS.
    Then OS updates could either be programmed to overwrite the already existant RAW camera data or just skip it over. I don't know - but that's why I'm not a programmer .
    It just seems, to me at the very least, that the current system is flawed. It takes too **** long!
    If Apple wants Aperture to succeed, lord knows I do, then they have to be on the ball.
    Just my ideas.

    <..>
    Actually that is not the case. We are simply waiting for RAW updates - which need not come only with OS updates. Apple has publically stated that RAW conversion updates could come in OS Updates, or in Aperture updates, or in standalone updates. So you already have your wish, they are just not taking that option at this time.
    I think at this point Apple is probably tying the latest RAW updates to 10.4.5 - but that is only because it will probably be delivered before too long and so is easy to attach RAW updates to. Also I imagine they would really like to really address the issue at hand and not release a RAW update that people would consider mediocre.

  • When will Camera Raw be available for Canon G7 X??

    Received new G7 X, unable to load in Lightroom 5.6.  Canon DPP not my first choice...

    Camera RAW 8.7 RC doesn't support the EOS 7D Mark II yet ...
    Jeffrey Tranberry (Chief Customer Advocate) said 3 days ago " G7, LX100, 7D MKII, X100T are on the radar. Hoping to add these in an upcoming update. Stay tuned. We'll announce updates here." at
    the camera raw thread: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/why_doesnt_my_version_of_photoshop_o r_lightroom_support_my_camera-17cz5b
    So for the time being you are limited to shooting RAW/JPG or using DPP to convert to TIF and importing those.

  • Aperture 2.1 doesn't lift Raw Fine Tuning for Canon 40D

    Anyone know what's going on here. I can lift all adjustments including raw fine tuning with all my cameras (Canon 1D Mark III; 1Ds Mark III; Mark IIN) except for the 40D. For some reason when I click the Lift button on 40D images the Raw Fine Tuning option in the lift hud doesn't appear. Only Adjustments, Main Rating, IPTC and Custom. I've tried quitting Aperture and restarting. I've also tried rebooting. Problem persists.

    First, make sure that you are using full RAW files not RAWs. RAW s is a smaller size setting in the camera which has not been supported by Aperture in the past. Second, try rebuilding your Aperture database. I have a Canon 7d and use RAW. It works fine on my system. You can try reinstallation but if your problem is the RAW version or your database, reinstallation will not address the problem.

  • How long til elements 7 Camera RAW 5.4 for Canon 500D????

    I have recently upgraded from Canon 400D to 500D. I was merrily editing away with the 400D but since the 500D, I haven't been able to convert the RAW files at all. Research on this site shows that there is a trial 5.4 for the 500D but for CS4 only!! I have emailed Adobe for an update but don't hold out much hope. Has anyone heard a release date for Elements 7 camera RAW?? I know I've got the DPP software but I've never used it and from what I've tried to suss out today - it's pants compared to Elements hence paying £70 for the pleasure and now it doesn't work!! But I'm not bitter.......;o)
    Cheers

    People (including me) have been able to get ACR5.4 to work with PSE (6 or 7).
