Sony a7ii and LR

I have updated my software LR 5.7 but still cannot import my sony a7ii files.  Help, please.

I think I may have imported 5.7 rather than 5.7.1 so will try again.  It should say 5.7.1 in the About screen, correct?
Correct.
But make sure you have a destination location, a folder to place the images in, selected if you are importing from a memory card or directly from the camera, IE camera connected to the computer.
There was a post several days ago about no images showing up on import and it was because no destination folder was selected to Copy the images to.

  • Lightroom 5 won't read my Sony A7ii raw files

    Just got my Sony A7ii, shot some files and tried to import into Lightroom but it doesn't recognize the files???? They open in PS ARC just fine.

    Which version of Lightroom? It should be supported in LR 5.7.1.

  • Can 5 axis image stabilization be engaged with non system lenses for A7II and A7rII?

    Many people use/will use their excellent non system manual focus non system macro lenses on the A7II and undoubtedly on the soon to be released A7RII. Stabilization in the X/Y planes is very very important for macro. Sony on the A7II only stablizes the X/Y planes for lenses that report the focus distance as best I can tell. Perhaps the lens compensation app or another can be modified so this data can be manually inputted or even change the firmware to allow this and thus stabilize all 5 axes. Focal length will need to be inputted of course as well. Perhaps there is another way around this that I have missed. Thanks for any comments.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer.  I have done more digging in reviews and recalled sony's announcments which implied on 3 axis IS is available w/o a lens that reports focsing distance. Not my favorite source, but review from PCMag: "If you're using a non-native lens, or even a native manual focus lens like the Zeiss Loxia 2/50, it's stabilized along three axes—yaw, pitch, and roll. There's a technical reason for that. In order to compensate along the x and y axes, the camera needs to know the distance to the subject, which requires electronic communication of the focal distance from the lens to the body. To compensate for the other three axes, the only data that needs to be transmitted is the focal length of the lens. Even if you're using a purely mechanical Leica lensit can be stabilized—you're able to manually enter the focal length via a menu. The only real downside to this is that the A7 II does not add that focal length to the recorded EXIF data, so if you like to track which lens a shot is captured with, you'll need to take notes." http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2475439,00.asp A friend informed me that on his A7II he must mount a non OSS Sony lens first to have any image stabilization with any of his totally manual lenses--seems the camera saves the settings of the last lens attached.  Turning the cam off doesn't reset this--very odd---seems to be a bug in the firmware.  I hope the A7rII is different. This whole issue is quite confusing.  Appreciate any additonal clarification.

  • Sony A7II blue "halo" on LCD.

    Hey guys, just updated to firmware on my Sony A7II to 1.20 (from 1.10) and I'm noticing something really strange that I've never seen before. My LCD screen now has this odd blue square taking up the entire center of the screen. I took a pic with my phone of my a7ii LCD turned on and the lenscap attached. You can see what I'm talking about. This shows up while reviewing previously taken photos as well, just this big blue discoloration on the screen. Picture of the problem. I know for sure I haven't seen this show up previous to updating today, because it discolors all the photos on the live view and would have been impossible to ignore when reviewing pics I've taken as I take them. What in the world is the issue here?

  • Raw Support, Sony A7ii on aperture?

    Anyone know if there are plans for a RAW support update including the SONY A7ii?  Or could the current RAW that already supports the A7r and A7 be compatible?
    Thanks-

    Raw support is specific to the camera model. You just need to be patient. Sony Cameras are generally supported, but it takes time.

  • Just got new Sony a7II.  LR5 will not import.  Plugin?

    Is there a way to import photos from my new Sony a7II into LR5?

    I think Saul is referring to the Sony A7 II, officially designated as the Sony ILCE-A7M2, aka Sony Alpha 7 II (I think Sony needs to hire some competent marketers).
    Adobe Camera Raw 8.7.1 supports the A7 II, but you'll have to wait for the next release of LR for that support to be included.  Meanwhile, you can convert the raw files to DNG and import those into LR with the latest DNG converter: Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

  • Problems with Sony NX3 AND Sony Z5 avi files

    Very, very strange problem. I will try to give as much detail as possible so bear with me.
    I currently edit with two different computers. One uses Premier 3 the other uses Premiere 6. I shoot with several different cameras, but for purposes of this discussion I will talk only about the Sony Z5 and the Sony NX3. I capture my footage on a CF card (Z5) or SD card (NX3)
    All HD footage shoot with the Z5 and/or the NX 3 works fine on either system. However any SD footage that is over a certain length will not import into premiere 6 (if it's from the Z5) or the length of the footage will only be 2:37 (on footage from the NX3). However the SD footage from either camera will play perfectly on the system with Premiere 3.
    Any ideas on what my problem with premiere 6 is?

    I caputured footage from my ZU1 yesterday that encountered time code breaks. They should not have been there. My only thought is that the breaks occured when I shut the camera down and started recording later.
    Maybe... I assumed it was user error... I was wondering if perhaps a setting in the camera was causing the breaks when the camera powers down.

  • Sony album and music app not finding files on device,

    Hi just got my new Sony Xperia Z3+ device and found a couple things I cant get my brain round and would appreciate some assistance.
    By the way my phone has no external sd card in it, plain phone memory.
    1. I got an app called rocket player with a lot of music, yet sony music app seems to think there are no songs on my phone.
    2. when i open rocket player and select song and state use as ringtone and then check it in setting its still the previous/ original ringtone from the device, i press the top right and again no songs displayed.
    3. I have same isue with photos, I have downloaded images from my dropbox saved on to device and sony ablum app will not display any of my photos. Today my mrs sent me a lot of photos through whats app and NONE show in sony ablum. I even created 2 folders in sony album went to file commander and moved some photos into the two folder locations, open sony album and again NOTHING apart from orginal photos either taken by phone camera or screenshots.
    Can someone help me fix these annoying issues. appreciate it.

    Hi alexdon, thanks again for coming back to me.
    Issue has now been resolved..
    Rang Vodafone as nothing was working, as I was withing my 14 days of a new contract they sent me out a device to see if that could have been the case.
    Well setup new one exactly the same way but no issue right from the word go, music imported from computer went into the phones Sony album and again photos download from Dropbox or what's app appeared in phone album app..
    So think it was a faulty device

  • Im running lightroom 4 and just purchased the Sony A7 and using its sd card. when I   tried to load the photos, I got a message "the files are not recognized by the raw format support in lightroom"

    Tried loading my raw files shot w my new Sony a7 and its sd card into lightroom4. Got a message: "The files are not recognized by the raw format in lightroom"
    Does Lightroom 4 not work with the Sony A7?
    Thanks,

    Lightroom 4 cannot read the RAW photos from a Sony A7
    You would have to download and install the FREE Adobe DNG Converter version 8.5 and then convert your RAW to DNG, and then import the DNGs into Lightroom 4
    You could also purchase Lightroom 5.5, which will have the capability to read the RAWs directly.

  • I have a sony rx100 and my version of lightroom (4) will not recognize the raw (.ARW) files. Please help!

    I have a sony rx100 and my version of lightroom (4) will not recognize the raw (.ARW) files. Please help!

    I have version 4.4.1 on my computer now, which is functioning properly - but does not read the .ARW files. When I download the link you sent and try to open it, it pops up as version 5 and I get this image (attached). This is my first time in one of these threads, not sure if i have to reply to each of you individually?
    DdeGannes, could you please tell me how to recover the serial number from my operating system?
    Thank you SO much everyone!

  • Sony KDL52V5100 and HDMI inputs

    I purchased a Sony KDL52V5100 from Best Buy in July, 2009.  Nice television. I have a Dishnetwork 922 DVR/Receiver as well a Klipsch theatre system attached to the HDMI inputs.  Suddenly, this weekend, the television would not pick up a signal from the Dishnetwork receiver, message saying "no signal".  I changed the HDMI cable, purchased a new one, moved it to all of the other HDMI inputs, (#2, 3, & 4), brought out the other Sony tv and hooked up both HDMI cables, again with no signal.  We were able to watch movies on the Klipsch DVD/Theatre system.  Dishnetwork sent a repairman out, thinking it had to be in the Dishreceiver.  He moves the HDMI cable from HDMI #1 input to #2, and walla, a picture.  Unbelievable.  Now, no picture with the Klipsch DVD/Theatre, only sound and a green screen.  Could this problem be all in the HDMI inputs on the tv?  The #1 input, which had the Dishnetwork receiver originally in it, does appear slightly loose, but not enough that the cable will not stay in it.  And why now the problem with the HDMI input for the DVD/Theatre?  Any ideas?  Anyone else have this kind of problem?  Is this a Sony TV problem with the HDMI inputs, or the cables, which we've changed once already with new ones.

    Problem solved!  With the Klipsch DVD/Theatre system, if you are using a HDMI cable, you must also attach the video in/video out cables.  Beautiful picture now and terrific sound.

  • Sony RX100 and Lightroom 4.3

    Hi, I recently bought a sony rx100 and have downloaded lightroom 4.3 trial version so that I can work with the raw images.  When I try to read the files off the sd card, lightroom doesn't see them.  I've had to use the sony raw converter so that lightroom can recognise them.  Is this the way to go?  Am I doing something wrong?
    I'd appreciate any assistance.

    I've uninstalled LR 4.3 and installed trial version of LR 4.2 and the same problem. 
    Why did you do that?
    I cannot vouchsafe how the Sony RX100 has worked with LR4.2, since I own mine only since 4.3
    Works like a charm, like for c Frans w.
    Why did you mention .ORF as raw file type in your post #2? The Sony RX100 has .ARW as raw file type. Did the Sony converter display .ARW as .ORF?
    For pragmatic reasons I would suggest that you install 4.3 (BTW there is no trial version: the download is always the full package. It will just stop running after 30 days unless a valid serial no. will be entered.), enter your serial number and use it with your camera.

    The Sony RX100 is not in the drop down list - Sony appears, but only with 4 available lenses, none of which are on the RX100.
    Any suggestions?
    Pulling my hair out.
    Thank you.
    You are perhaps talking of the lens profiles. Here my experience differs from c Frans w:
    Default does not auto-recognize, I have to enter the Make as "Sony", but then I get a recognition for "Sony E16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS".
    Lens profiles are something different from supporting a camera and its raw file type (= LR being able to read .ARW).
    Adobe may add further lens profiles, or some other people might create, actually using this camera.
    I do not always need to apply a lens profile, since I consider the barrel distortion without one not too bad as long as it is not an architectural shot.

    Regrds

    I'm not familiar with either your camera or iMovie 8 but you have a very recent camera and a very old version of iMovie so i'm not too surprinsed that there are incompatiibility problems.  
    What format are the video files from your camera?  (If its AVCHD I'm not sure this wasn't even invented when iMovie 8 came out.)
    Are you are trying to import directly from the camera into iMovie?
    You may have to copy the directory from your camera to your hard disk with the finder and then convert the clips into a format accepted by iMovie 8.
    What Mac do you have?
    If you can I would advise updating to iMovie 9 - this requires iLife '11 and Snow Leopard or later (and for AVCHD a Core2Duo processor or later)
