RAWs from Olympus E-30 shifted to left and top

Hi folks,
importing RAW from an Olympus E-30 shows some strange results: The photos are shifted to the left and upper by appr. 15 pixels. This content is lost, thereby offering some new content on the right and lower side. It looks like if the coordinates of origin are scrambled...?
For to check I used the camera setting "create /both/ JPG /and/ RAW" simultaneously, and compared the .jpg and .orf side by side.
This occurs on two different Macs, within iPhoto, Preview etc..
For comparison I tried an Olympus E-620 as well, all fine: .jpg. and .orf show exactly the same crop. Using the albeit not-so-usable Olympus Software works fine with the E-30 shots, may be as it converts the RAWs on its own.
So far the RAW from the E-30 is not usable at all on the Macs with the Mac's software, as composition of a photo usually starts in that edge which gets cut, left and top...
Any ideas what I can do? If you need example shots let me now!
Macs on Snow Leopard with all patches 10.6.7, iPhoto 9.1.2. The Olympus E-30 has the most current firmware 1.1.
Kind regards,
Kai

Okay I've searched some more on the Aperture and iPhoto forums and cannot see similar queries. There are some that complain about the colour and others about the amount of sharpening, but nothing I can find like this - and you have to figure that if every E-30 owner suffered from the issue that s/he would be complaining.
That, to me, suggests that the issue may be local to your machine.
Does it occur in other User accounts?
Have you tried importing the Raws to another Mac for comparison.?

  • Olympus E-30 RAW shifted left and top - no more DNG workaround

    Hi folks,
    something very strange happens again, unfortunately:
    Aperture shifts the Olympus RAW photos (.ORF) relatively to the JPG to left and top. Only E-30, but iPhoto and Aperture with same failure. Converting the ORF by Adobes DNG Converter was a workaround which was some additional effort but put RAW and JPG on the same coordinates back again, so all my E-30 RAWs where converted to DNG before imported into Aperture.
    That fixed the shifting - but not any longer!
    In the current version of Aperture (3.4.3) on Mountain Lion 10.8.2 all my photos become shifted again! So, Aperture does the same failure not only on the ORF, but now even with the DNG converted RAW!
    There has been a discussion here, but no fix came along. Just the workaround, and that is broken now.
    Any glue how to get the E-30 DNG converted RAWs processed with correct position?
    Thanks a lot for your ideas,
    Kai C.

  • Can't open .orf RAWs from Olympus E-510 - how to install camera-raw?

    Hi
    i'm new to adobe photoshop cs3 and just wanted to try opening my
    RAWs from my olympus.
    Adobe always says it can't open these files.
    i have already downloaded the "camera raw.8bi" but do not know how to use it.
    i tried to give adobe a new plugins-folder but it seems not using it.
    any help?

    The installation instructions are on the page from which you downloaded it... They do change occasionally, so it's a good idea to pay attention to them.
    Cheers,

  • Rounded corners, top left and top right

    Hi
    Hope you can help me, as I'm relatively new to PSE 9 , I'm trying to create nice rounded corners on the top right and top left of a new image in PSE 9
    Please could you put me in the right direction to get me started.
    Many thanks for your assistance.
    Mike

    You might try something like this:
    1. Either duplicate the background layer or double click on the background
       so it's not locked.
    2. Make your rulers visible (View>Rulers) and pull out four guides, one
       for each side of the image. (so the shape tools snap to the edges of your photo)
    3. Select the Rounded Rectangle Tool (nested with the shape tools)
    4. Set the radius of the corners and draw your shape on the photo.
    5. Select the Rectangle Tool and set the option to Add to Shape Area
       and draw the rectangle on the bottom half of the photo.
    6. Select the Shape Selection Tool and press the Combine button.
    7. Move the shape layer below the photo layer in the layers panel, make the photo
        layer the active layer and go to Layer>Create Clipping Mask.

  • Opening raw from Olympus EM1 in Snow Leopard

    Hy everybody, maybe it is not the right place...
    I've got a problem with my Imac running 10.6.8, because Preview does not displays the orf of my new camera, Olympus OMD EM 1.
    I have read that Preview share the same raw converter of Iphoto and Aperture, but the versions of there software (needed to open the orf of this new camera), are not supported by Snow Leopard.
    I have sent by Mail, as an attachment, one of these orf and, surprisingly, through Mail, I have seen the orf correctly displayed!!
    I can't understand how and why, because I am very naive in this field :(
    Do you think that it could be possible to see these orf through Preview, as I can see them as an attachment through Mail?
    Thank you for your attention :)
    Ciao
    Susanna

    That camera requires Mavericks. 10.9 the latest OS from Apple.
    How did you send the file with Mail? When (and on what system) were you able to see the image?
    Inside of every raw file the camera puts a  smaller JPG version of the image which can be used to see what the image looks like without decoding the raw file. This is most likely what you are seeing when you see the image in email.
    To actually use the raw file information you would need to be running Mavericks.
    IS there a reason you have not upgraded to Mavericks and have stayed with Snow Leopard? Your system, a 2010 iMac will be able to run Mavericks.  The only problem is if you are running older PPC software that requires Rosetta, that will not work in Mavericks.

  • Hi, Just switched from CS6 to PS CC. I am used to using ACR in CS6 with it's preview checkbox in the upper  right-hand corner. I do not see that checkbox in PS CC. I see that they have added side-by-side, right and left and top and bottom before and after

    Hi,
    Just switched from CS6 to PS CC. I am very comfortable using ACR in previous versions. I liked to use the preview checkbox located in the upper right-hand corner to see before and afters. That checkbox is no longer in my version of PS CC. I see that they have side-by-side, top and bottom and right and left before and after options in the lower right-hand corner in this version. Is there anyway to get that legacy preview checkbox back so that I can use it?

    Hi Warunicorn,
    Thank you very much. I just could not find it on my own. I will have more questions as I get into it.

  • Display screen shifts to left and right

    Hi, The display on my new iMac will occasionally shift about 1 to 2 inches to the left or to the right.  It will hold that position for several seconds.  During this time the system is unresponsive to the keyboard or mouse entries.  If the screen first shifted left it will then shift right, still off center but in the other direction. The screen will then re-center itself and responsiveness returns.  This may occur 4 or 5 times during the course of an evening.  The problem was worse when I primarily used Safari as the browser.  It happens less with Foxfire.
    Suggestions or answers?
    Thanks,
    Fred

    Unfortunately I was never able to figure out what it was that caused this!  After several visits and several repairs and several escalations up the ladder - I finally got someone to authorize an exchange.  They could not reproduce it on my computer either, but after extensive questioning, it turns out they do not actually sit at the machine and use it, they just run diagnostic software on it that is supposed to catch things like that, but clearly it does not catch this.
    Overall though, this is a glitch that apple has not yet identified as a problem and in my experience, person after person will tell you they have never heard of it (or worse, act as if you are making this up).  My experiences with this problem and apple's response (or lack thereof) has actually caused me to switch back to a PC after seven years as a die hard apple fan. That  being said, Matt was extremely helpful and didnt act as if I was insane, so he may be able to be of help to you as well.

  • Is it possible to send photos from LR 5 to Photoshop Elements 12 and directly get them opened in layers?

    I want to do Exposure Blending in Photoshop Elements 12 and I am wondering if it is possible to send photos (RAW) from LR 5 to Photoshop Elements 12 and get them directly opend in different layers?

    I don't use Photoshop Elements. Photoshop has an option to open images merging them to HDR. Does Elements have an HDR option? If it doesn't then I don't think there's any way to send the images layered.

  • Raw Format from Olympus E-10 not support

    Does anyone know how to import this raw format (Olympus E-10) into iphoto. The apple web site says it is compatibly but iphoto says it is not. Thanks for any help.

    mitch:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. This page will tell you if your camera is supported: Digital camera RAW formats supported by Mac OS X 10.5.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • Camera Raw crops my image from left and right

    As you can see in the screen cap, camera raw inside AE opens my timelapse images cropped from left and right. I had this problem before in photoshop too, but never tried to fix it. I'm now in serious trouble and need to find a solution ASAP.

    I'm guessing that you cropped in camera and when you shoot RAW the crop is honored but can be removed. I would use Lightroom. Set up a preset that resets the crop and process all of the frames and then export a png or if you want to do some advanced color correcting in AE, select any of the 32 bit image formats and render your resized images to a specific folder. Then import the images as an image sequence in Premiere Pro or AE and do the rest of the work. Importing an image at a time into AE and sequencing the layers in nuts...IMHO
    One other thing, before you shoot any more images with this camera go through the menu and reset it to not crop your images.

  • Reading RAW files from OLYMPUS

    Can Photoshop Elements read RAW files from Olympus OM-D E-M10 or if not can the files be converted to a compatible format?

    Photoshop elements 12 can't read those files as of yet, but should be able to when camera raw 8.4 is released.
    It won't be too long because 8.4 is in the release candidate stage, which probably means within the next month or so, it should be released as final.
    Did your olympus camera come with any software that can open those files?

    It's a way of opening the Raw files from your OM-D EM-1 without having to upgrade to LR5.
    In short, you open the Raw files from the camera uing the DNG converter, convert the Raw files to DNGs. Then you edit the DNG files in LR4.4.

    Hi, I am working in saudi arabia and willing to buy an iphone 5. But next year I will shift to India permanently. So my query is whether I would purchase apple applications from India or not once I left the purchased country of origin?
           Also here though face time is banned by law, one of the biggest authorized dealer (Jarir bookstore) of apple products sells unloced iphone/ipad versions with face time enabled. So shall I use this function out side of saudi arabia, i.e. in India?

    Wait and purchase the whole phone from India if you are going to be permanently based there.  There are no usage restrictions in the same way that there are in Saudi.
    Just wait.
