Sony 500

I just bought a sony 500 camera and it needed an update in camera raw to work.  I followed the instructions to install the latest camera raw but now I cannot see my thumbnails, nor can I save the image in any format other than .dng  I had no problem with my previous camera, and could save photos as jpg or tiff as well as psd or dng.  I don't know what I have done wrong, but there is something not working right.

Well, that complicates things considerably...you'll need to go to the Camera Raw Product Page and carefully follow the installation instructions as closely as possible. Elements is a different animal than Photoshop so I can't tell you EXACTLY what to do...also, just to be clear you have an A500 Sony" The should be supported in the most recent Camera Raw update.

  • Cannot import RAW into Lightroom 4 (Sony@500)

    I am unable to import my RAW files into Lightroom 4.  My camera is a Sony Alpha 500 DSLR.
    All reasearch I've done online hasn't resulted in any help.  Has anyone else had this issue?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Give a little more info. Are you trying to import direct from the camera, from a card reader, or are the files on your hard drive.
    If you are getting a message that the files "could not be read" it is possible that you may be trying to copy the files to a location where you may not have full permission to read and write.
    Your camera is listed as supported.
    Are you updated to the latest version of LR 4.4?

  • Audio sync error while edit to tape

    Hi!
    I have a sync error for around 1 sec more or less when i´m
    either doing a print to video or just playback my timeline
    in my external monitor.
    I´m using a mac pro (macosx leopard) with a AJA kona LHE video card and
    final cut pro 6.0.2. The deck is a Sony 500 digibeta recorder.
    Anyone has a idea or solution i would be very grateful,
    i need all the help i can get.
    Thanks!!!

    Download the latest drivers again if need be, and UNINSTALL them before you reinstall them. I sort of think the problem may lie there. What slot is the kona in? That could be a problem.
    Also if this fails, you might contact the good folk at AJA, they are the best of the best when it comes to troubleshooting things with their gear. I don't know of any issues here, but don't have a Kona in my current setup. Have an Io HD now.

  • Can not capture from Sony HDV 1080i (recording in 60i)

    Hello
    We are trying to capture from the above camera to a Mac Dual G5. We are using FinalCutPro 5.1.2. We are using a FireWire 400 cable to connect to the front of the computer (have also tryed back of Cinema Display). The footage was captured in HDV1080/60i, and we have tried the corresponding formats in Easy Setup (Basic, standard, Apple Intermediate).
    The problem: we can control the camera from the Log and Capture windows, but when starting capture, no data is coming in, and the program therefor gives up after a few seconds (displaying a no data error message).
    We have tried Batch and Now capture. We can log clips, and get the correct time code, but can not capture those clips due to the no data problem.

    This is a good workaround for curing your camera recognition problem with FCP (if that's what it is):
    First, check that your Easy Setup / Timeline / Camera or Deck Settings are all exactly the same, then making sure your camera or deck is in VTR mode, try to capture again.
    FCP uses a different form of QT than iMovie for capturing, so if the camera works in iMovie (or if it's listed in System Profiler) but not FCP, it obviously means your Mac can see the VTR but FCP can't, so you need to do this QuickTime fix.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
    Follow the instructions carefully and you should have things running in no time - it's quite safe but you must Trash the Receipts AND re-install QT from the link provided.
    If the Camera / Deck isn't recognised by iMovie or System Profiler, try resetting the Firewire Bus . . . Turn off the Mac and disconnect the power and all Firewire cables. Leave it for 30 mins then connect back up.
    Still not working? Try a different Firewire cable.
    Failing all this, try resetting the PMU (Power Management Unit). The method varies from machine to machine, so visit the Apple site and search for it in support.
    Don't use iMovie for capturing - it doesn't give you a timecode and that's very important.
    Let us know how you get on!

  • Unable to capture 480i  SD from Sony HC1

    I must be doing something wrong.
    I want to capture video from my HC1 as SD 480i but all I get is firewire control. I have tried DV NTSC and DV NTSC Anamorphic with no results. My tape footage is HDV with the camcorder set to downconvert the iLink output to SD 480i.
    I can boot into windows and capture 480i using Premiere Pro.
    HDV capture is not a problem.
    Any ideas? I am totally new to FCP and the Mac and I really want to learn to use FC Studio.

  • Sony DSR-25 not found with FCP 5.1.2

    Hi @ all,
    I updated to FCP 5.1.2 to fix a dublicate bug with a Sony XDCam HD in 5.1.1 (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3269745#3269745)
    This Problem was solved, but now i can't connect my Sony DSR-25 with Firewire to Mac. I have only one Firewire Onboard Slot and in 5.1.1 the DSR-25 worked fine. FCP doesn't finde the Deck
    So did anyone have an intention or an idea what the problem could be with 5.1.2 ? Or did anyone has used a DSR-25 with FCP 5.1.2 already?

    I download xf86-video-fbdev just for fun before I saw your post, I didn't do anything as far as I could see.
    I commented these lines out:
    FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1"
    Load "record"
    Load "type1"
    B, I didn't install any fonts but now I installed a buch of random fonts:
    pacman -S ttf-ms-fonts ttf-cheapskate artwiz-fonts xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-100dpi
    and did some of what the X.org configuration wiki said:
    fc-cache -fv
    /usr/bin/fc-cache
    /usr/bin/mkfontscale
    /usr/bin/mkfontdir
    ln -s /usr/share/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir encodings.dir
    Then this I changed this:
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Card0"
    Driver "intel"
    VendorName "All"
    BoardName "All"
    EndSection
    EDIT, halfway through this post I realized I type in biagio's code wrong, I re-typed it and now my X works!

  • Using a Sony HVR-M25U for video playback

    I know this isn't strictly a Final Cut question. I'm just hoping that some smart Final Cut editor is using the same Sony deck as I use and can help me out. Also, sorry for the length. I've included every detail I thought might be germane.
    Since I started editing HDV I've always used Digital Cinema Desktop Preview for monitoring my edits. I suppose due to a lack of computing power it's never looked very good in motion, though it looks nice and clean when stilled. Today I bought an HDMI cable, hoping to allow me to monitor my work in FCP, sending the video via iLink (FireWire) through my Sony HVR-M25U to my HD monitor.
    Now, I use my HVR-M25U Videocassette recorder deck to log and capture footage in Final Cut Pro. That works fine. I can view video straight off HDV tapes on my High Definition monitor via the HDMI input. That works fine. I can even use the Print to Video function and see the HDV output both in the LCD screen on the front of the deck and on the monitor through the HDMI input. The trouble I'm having is in using the M25U to monitor my editing via iLink.
    In the old days, working with DV, I had a DSR 40 and I was able to use that deck to monitor my FCP output via iLink, taking a component out to my standard def monitor. Is there some reason I can't use this HDV deck the same way? I've tried refreshing A/V devices in Final Cut. I don't see any iLink or Firewire choices in my view menu. I do see a whole list of HDV (1440 x 1080) choices but they're all greyed out. These choices also exist in my Audio/Video Settings screen under "Playback Output" but, again, they are greyed out. Oddly, from having used the Cinema Desktop Preview, I have "Different Output for Edit to Tape/Print to Video" checked and under that pulldown the same eight HDV (1440 x 1080) choices do exist and they are not greyed out. Checked or unchecked, that doesn't change the Playback Output menu.
    I can't see any logical deck settings to adjust. Under "IN/OUT" settings I have "HDV/DV SEL" on Auto, my "Video Out" as 1080i/480i and "i.LINK SET" (the DV down-convert) is off.
    I've also tried shutting down FCP and relaunching and shutting the deck off and firing it back up. I've tried the deck first and then FCP and I've tried the opposite. I also tried restarting. Still nothing.
    If I can feed HDV from the deck into my computer via iLink, shouldn't I be able to feed HDV from my computer to the deck? Like I said, I can record HDV via Firewire to the deck. Shouldn't I be able to see that same HDV output on the deck's LCD screen and also through the deck's HDMI output when editing?
    In case it matters, I'm running FCP 6.06, OS X 10.6.2 on a 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad Core Xeon with 4GB RAM.
    Thanks in advance for anyone who's taken the time to actually read this long question and a special thanks to anyone who might be able to help.

    #25 HDV external Monitor Viewing
    Shane's Stock Answer #25 - HDV external Monitor Viewing
    To view HDV on an external monitor in high definition you are going to need to purchase a capture card, like the ones Decklink (www.decklink.com) or AJA (www.aja.com) offer. They will both play out HDV in real time. The catch is that you cannot view this on a regular TV or NTSC monitor. Since this is HD, an HD monitor will be needed. HOWEVER, both cards are capable of down converting the signal so that it can be displayed on an SD monitor. This won't be color accurate
    The real reason why you can't monitor HDV through a Firewire camera is because Firewire HDV cameras don't decode incoming HDV streams and route them to their outputs like DV cameras do.
    Good options for you are the Matrox MXO2...$500...coupled with an HDTV. Or a Matrox MXO (DVI connection) coupled with an Apple 23" display gets you good quality.
    And there are the Decklink Intensity and Intensity PRO cards as well, and the AJA I/O Express...
    You can, however, view HDV out via firewire as DV...lowering the resolution to that of DV, but still viewable. This is not full quality nor should it be used to judge the quality of your footage or used to color correct to. This is just a way to view the footage on a large monitor.
    Here are some examples of some of the possibilities:
    - DV or HDV sequence output to an SDI signal on a third-party interface
    - An uncompressed NTSC or PAL sequence output to a DV FireWire output
    - An HDV sequence output to a DV FireWire output
    Sequence and output formats must have compatible frame rates. For example,
    sequences with a frame rate of 60, 30, or 24 fps can be output to a 30 fps device,
    but not to a 25 or 50 fps device.

  • Can't BBC iPlayer to work on Sony Bravia TV

    I have BT Infinity and use a Home Hub3.
    I usually access the internet via (a) wired connection to Apple iMac running OS 10.6.8 and (b) by WiFi to a 4th Generation iPod Touch. These work without a problem - and I have no difficulty accessing BBC iPlayer.
    I have recently set up a wired internet connection for my Sony Bravia TV (type KDL 32EX403 with latest software PKG4.117EUL-0108) using mains wire connection through devolo dLAN 500 WiFi homeplugs.
    I can access the most of the internet services on the TV - the one exception is BBC iPlayer - when every time I try and connect I get the message 'A network error has occured' - and when I hit the Retry button the same mesage comes up.
    Anyone got any idea how to fix this?
    Cheers
    Tim

    Well, that's about a tenner from e.g. Cable Universe. It's just to test it you know, not permanent.
    Can you change the DNS settings on the TV to use Google 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 ?

  • ITunes deletes Library File on startup (Sony VAIO, Windows 7)

    Help needed. My mother has a 1 yr VAIO with Windows 7 and has a consistent problem with iTunes in that the Library file keeps disappearing and hence iTunes shows no music / TV files available to play.
    Scenario is:
    Latest iTunes version installed.
    Music / TV files are on C drive
    Library build happens correctly first time.
    Shut down iTunes
    Re-launch iTunes
    When the program re-launches it places Library file in the 'Waste bin' and creates new temp files in the location (itunes.tmp). It also sometimes creates a new library file which is empty.
    These temp files seem to be created on every launch and shut down. I deleted over 500 of them! At present the only solution seems to be to rebuild the file every time.
    I never had this on any real issues on other Windows XP machines or my Mac. Have tried re-install. Can't think of any other options.
    thanks.

    There is a problem with media management software Vaio xml library Manager, the Vaio content manager and the Vaio Music Box software

  • Image quality issues - Sony Handycam (MPEG) to iMovie / iDVD

    I have read through dozens of posts but the recommendations vary widely and am hoping I can get some guidance specific to my situation. The image quality I am getting from home movies I edit in iMovie11 and burn to DVD in iDVD are far inferior to the original material.
    I have a Sony DCR-TRV17. This camera is a little over 10 years old. It is a miniDV with 500 lines resolution, 680K gross pixels and uses MPEG. While not HD, the image quality is exceptional. The DVDs I used to create using my Sony Viao likewise looked fantastic. But the results I get from iMovie and iDVD are on par with VHS -- very poor, especially in low-light.
    I hope the issue is just the settings when I import, edit (iMovie) and share to iDVD. I generally use the default settings, and often alternate settings don't seem to be selectable. It also sounds from other posts like iMovie sacrifices quality for reduced file size and increased simplicity? I would appreciate help with the following:
    1) Please list the settings I should be adjusting from default when I  a) import, b) edit in iMovie11 and c) share to iDVD and burn -- and the recommended settings for each
    2) Is there a process I should be trying? Should I be creating test DVDs using different settings at each stage and then reviewing various setting combinations to find the best one?
    3) I will most probably buy an HD camcorder very soon, and plan to burn to Blue Rays. I have no problem with going ahead and buying Final Cut and an external drive to burn Blue Rays. Should I just go ahead and do it and get away from iMovie / iDVD entirely. Will Final Cut solve this issue for my old miniDVs without a whole lot of hair pulling? Or will I still have to tinker with a bunch of settings or convoluted processes to get it "right." I never had to tinker with settings on my Viao. Really expected Mac software to be more user friendly…
    Thanks very much for any help or advice!

    On Import you could try unchecking Optimize video and choose Full Size. Your disk space however will get eaten up incredibly quickly choosing these settings as each hour of video = 40GBytes of disk space. So be forewarned about how big those files will expand as they come off the MiniDV tapes.
    Another thing you will immediately see a difference in is how you move files from iMovie to iDVD. Share to iDVD while named in an intuitive way, is NOT the best way to get good quality DVDs out of iMovie. Instead you want to Share to Media Browser. Choose the Large Size setting. Then quit iMovie. Open iDVD, click the Media button, the Movies button. Find your project listed under the iMovie star icon and drag it into the iDVD project. Burn the Disc and see if you get a higher quality disk by Sharing to Media Browser instead of Share to iDVD.
    If you choose a Blu-Ray burner, also get a copy of Roxio Toast. The encoding to Blu-ray that Toast provides will be top notch and prevent you from making mistakes as the recordable Blu-ray disks are more expensive than DVDs. So every mistake will be expensive.

  • Lightroom and Sony A700 Raw (ARW) Files

    I shot all pictures in ARW format. A number of the shots are at mid to high level ISO numbers. The shots above 400ISO are extremely noisy(both cloro and luminance)When I use the SOny supplied software
    the same pictures noise level is significantly reduced. I have read on several other forums that ACR in lightroom is "messing up" the ARW files. This appears to be true. I use lightroom then CS3 to process my shots. The use of the Sony softweare complicates my workflow but at this point I am forced to do this. Is there any relief in site for this concern. Really want to combine everything into one system. By the way CS3 Bridge is not much better.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I have your lighting right here, JM.
    It's quite clear you know nothing about shooting African Cichlids, the most colorful freshwater fish in the world.
    These fish are "mbuna", they live in rocks, caves, and along rock faces and ledges. They are used to living many meters deep so the best fish always take up territory towards the bottom of the tank where the best structures are, where the light is most dim.
    In this 120 gallon tank is well over 500 pounds of structure which consumes most of the space in the tank.
    In many of the photos you will notice rock structures around the fish as the tank consists of a hundred or so ledges and caves.
    African Cichlids are the smartest fish in the world and they even learn who is who...they are not ordinary fish.
    No matter how much light you throw on African Cichlids it usually does not cure the problem since they spend most of there time peeking from, and hanging under structures. Shadows and dark areas are cast throughout the tanks due to the structures.
    Not to mention you must use the lighting already available in every public tank in the business, not to mention fish vendors usually cannot add lighting to their tanks either.
    That leads us to use high ISO when we must.
    Here are a few Sony A700 test shots made with 3 custom temp 4 ft 40 watt tubes in a deep 120 gallon tank.

    Here are a few old shots of mine when I used my custom built and designed setup w/6 custom temp 40 watt tubes made to fit a standard 55. Notice structure galore...it's like an urban housing complex in the mbuna tanks. I can shoot fish with a good pNs setup fairly well with this amount of light. Not many people anywhere get this amount of light on their tank, trust me.

    I shot Minolta, and then Konica Minolta, and now Sony has bought KM, so Sony is the one making the bodies for our glass now.
    Many of us will not give up image stabilized primes (body SSS) so we stay here. All lenses gain 2-3 stops on the Sony...A700 has top notch DR and great high ISO so most of us are not interested in Canon at the moment.
    This thread is here to help the Adobe team make ACR better, please stop interfering with your brand bashing speaks.
    Thank you.

  • Can I use new 1080/30p Sony FX-1000 & avoid iM '09 "interlace" problems?

    The whole interlace/deinterlace/codecs, etc. problems are all way beyond me. Can I avoid all these '09 iM/iDVD image quality problems (my final goal is a great looking DVD just like I was able to do way back in the iMovie 4 days with SD) with a 1080/30p camcorder? From the discussion board I seem to conclude that all the problems relate to shooting with an "interlaced" camera, but now I just found the new Sony HDR-FX1000 (3-chip) that shoots 1080/30p. It's still HDV tape format, but that's O.K. for now. Will my '09 iM editing life be trouble-free with this camera ??? I would be buying the new 2.93 GHz iMac that just came out.

    Hi Steve: I could not begin to recap the confusions of the "deinterlaced is not interlaced" string of 300 posts over the past month re: converting interlaced acquisition to AIC and/or Quicktime and/or a hundred other options and tweeks. I just don't have a clue. What I want to do is connect a HD camcorder (I currently have a Canon HV 20 but have not done any HD editing because I don't have iM 06, 08 or 09), and am still looking for the easiest, problem-free, high quality camcorder/iM 09 combo - even if I must buy a new $3,500.00 HD camcorder (the HV 20 being not very competent or efficient on several levels) - that will let me painlessly import from camcorder to iM 09 in a way that excellent quality is retained from original acquistion through editing and iDVD disc burn. I thought deinterlacing, one of the prominent problems discussed in the 300-post string, might not apply to a 1080/30p camera since interlacing does not apply, correct?
    But I don't know of other problems that could also arise with the FX1000 1080/30p. Your advice, obviously prized throughout many discussion board topics, is equally appreciated here.
