Sony RX100 RAW in Aperture

Please help....
Just got the stunning RX100 and upon return from holidays have downloaded the photos into on my new Retina Macbook using Aperture.
All goes well with import and I see the thumbnails, but once I click on the photo to enlarge it I get the unsupported image format message and image turns black....
What I am doing wrong? I have the latest version of Aperture 3.4.3.
Please help!!!! Thanks.

Try go install the latest version of the raw support, it contains the support for your camera.
Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 4.01

P.S. If you cannot install the raw update, check the build number of your MacOS X version im the "About this Mac" panel in the Apple Menu. On some macs the new update refuses to be installed and you have to patch the build number, see this thread for solutions:

  • Sony RX100 raw files converted with DNG converter not recognizable

    Since  installing Maverick 10.9.4 on the Mac, Sony RX100 raw files converted with DNG converter are no more recognizable.
    Somebody else the same problem?

    I know my DNG files themselves and the info they contain are fine. But they're not properly supported in Mavericks 10.9.4 and I don't plan on switching to Windows. A file that I converted to a DNG using Adobe software is now listed as an unrecognized file in OSX. No thumbnails, no iPhoto, no Aperture. Essentially, no support. And this is a problem. A quick search will show you people with various Sony cameras (A7, RX100 mkI and mkIII, at least) having the same problem.
    No matter where the blame falls, the simple fact is that if you shoot with various Sony cameras, use Adobe software to convert the file to DNG and happen to be an OSX user, you're files are no longer compatible with OSX or Apple's photo software. They will only open in Adobe software. You literally get a warning message from OSX saying, this is an unsupported file type when you try and open it.
    Like I said previously, I've had a managed iPhoto library for about 5 years now, numerous hours of tagging and organzing, and every DNG file converted from a Sony ARW RAW is currently unsupported. Original ARW files work just fine. It's nuts. Maybe it's Adobe's fault. Maybe it's Apple's fault. It really doesn't matter. If DNG is not a reliable standard format under certain edge cases (Sony ARW, DNG converter, OSX Mavericks), it's not a reliable standard format at all. I just hope that Apple or Adobe figures this out, so that I can get those photos back.
    In the mean time, certain users such as myself just can't rely on DNG. End of story.

  • Sony rx100 raw plug in

    As far as I can tell the Aperture plug in for the Sony RX100 has not been released yet.
    Would the first person to discover its release, please post. I've put the camera away, awaiting the plug-in's arrival. The available raw converters are just too clunky.
    thanks so much,
    Roger

    If you are really running 10.4 - which I doubt, you won't be able to use it anyway.
    You can always shoot RAW+JPEG and take advantage of RAW when update is released.

  • Sony RX100 Raw in Lightroom 4?

    Has Adobe published anything in LR4 to handle raw files from Sony RX100?

    I have Canons and I got the RX100 as a pocket point-and-shoot. It does a great job for that, a good solid all-around P&S camera. I find the low-light settings a bit frustrating, but in a very low-light situation I just set it on manual at a high shutter speed and get some pictures that I'm very happy about.

  • Does LR5 support Sony RX100 raw files?

    I'm currently using LR3 and I will upgrade to 5 if it supports the RAW files. I want to try to avoid using the Sony raw file converter if possible. Thank you!

    It supports RX100, RX100M2 and RX100M3 with the latest version 5.5, although there needs to be a fix for the RX100 M3 at ISO125 ... it is a little dark.

  • PSE10 Sony Rx100 RAW

    Would it be possible to update the PSE10 Raw to level ACR 7.2 to use the RAW from Sony RX100

    No it's not possible to update pse 10 to camera raw 7.2.
    You could use the 7.2 DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies which will then open in pse 10.
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.2
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.2

  • HT200199 Can't import 1080i60 files from Sony RX100. Anyone know why?

    I've shot AVCHD 1080p60 and 1080i60 movies and either do not show up. Even though it's written that 1080i60 files should be recognized. Maybe the support for the RX100 is still be worked on. I know Aperture and Lightroom don't support Sony RX100 RAW yet either.

    That camera is so new that you're just going to have to wait for RAW support. Your option, in the meantime, is to use the Camera Raw conversion.

    Aperture does not recognize RAW files shot with the RX100.  I cannot import files.  This only became an issue after I upgraded OSX.  Everything worked fine before.  Do I have to wait for another RAW update for 10.8.5?

    The raw support for Sony RX 100 II has been part of the update Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 4.08., so the camera should be supported.
    Try to reinstall the raw support in a similar way as described in this thread:

  • Aperture 3 RAW update for sony rx100 m3 RAW and JPEG

    Sony RAW and JPEG files unsupported by Aperture 3....help please Sony rx100 m3

    Are you trying to import RAW&JPEG pairs?  Try to set the Import settings in the Import panel to import with the JPEG selected as the original file.
    If that does not work, try to import JPEG files only.
    Are you still getting the error message?

  • Sony rx raw import in Aperture 3.4.5???

    Hi,
    I just purchased Aperture 3.4.5. hoping that it would be able to import my ARW file for my RX100M2. This doesn't seem to work. Pulling a picture into the Aperture window just brings an unsupported file format even though it says it should support in Apple's support pages.
    Is there any solution to this?
    Thanks

    Run "➞Software Update".  You need the most recent version of Apple RAW Compatibility Update (4.08) in order to convert Sony RX100 II files.  For Apple computers, the RAW converter is part of the OS, not part of the apps.
    NB: many users of Nikon cameras have reported problems with this newest update, as have users of the original RX cameras.  If you have files created with any of those, read some of the recent threads before upgrading.
    Imho, using Aperture's import dialog is a much more useful method of importing files into a Library.  "Aperture➞Import ... "

  • Raw Update 4.08 removes distortion correction for Sony RX100 files?

    I loaded raw update 4.08 on my 27 inch iMac yesterday. A while later, I opened Aperture 3 to export some RX100 files from a family event last week to Smugmug. To my horror, as the photos loaded when I viewed them, the automatically applied lens distortion correction was removed and obviously it was worst with the wide ones. The issue also shows up in iPhoto, so it seems a general OS thing. To confirm it was indeed due to the raw update, I exported the same raw files to my MacBook Air, which I hadn't updated yet. Sure enough, Aperture loaded them with distortion correction just fine. Obviously, I won't be updating the MacBook until this issue is fixed.

    This may be disappointing, but it is expected.  Note that Aperture has removed nothing, however.  What you are seeing is caused by using a RAW Original instead of a JPG Original.
    The Apple RAW Compatibility Update is part of the OS.  The RAW converter in OS X is system wide.  Any program can use it.  Aperture uses it.
    Aperture does not, afaik, do _any_ lens correction.  Lens correction must be handled by a plug-in or external editor (or done outside of Aperture).
    The files you had imported and viewed prior to the most recent RAW Compatibility Update were JPGs.  They were converted in-camera.  The camera contains the software to correct for lens distortion when it converts the sensor data to a JPG file.  Now that you can view the converted RAW files, you can see that this distortion correction is not applied.  That makes sense:  Aperture is doing the conversion, not your Sony camera.
    So there is no issue to be fixed.  If you want to use Sony's lens corrections, you have to either use the JPGs created by the camera, or convert the RAW using Sony's RAW converter (Image Data Converter v. 4).  Other software may also apply lens distortioin correction (I don't know).  Aperture does not.
    This is a much-asked-for feature request.  If you would like to see it added to Aperture, tell Apple.  The only line they listen to is "Aperture➞Provide Aperture Feedback".  It certainly wouldn't hurt to add your voice.
    HTH.

  • HT4757 RAW support for the SONY RX100?

    Anyone know when will Apple be adding RAW support for the SONY RX100?

    Unfortunately this is a user forum, so no-one can answer that one for you.  You can use the feedback option in aperture to request it though.  More than likely it wont come until Canon or Nikon release some more DSLRs, which is usually what prompts an update.  For what it's worth you can use the Adobe DNG converter which will convert the sony .arw file into a .dng file that Aperture can read.  It is another step to your workflow but you can do it.

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. How do I get and install the right version of Camera Raw?

    Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. I was told to update Camera Raw to at least 7.2. I tried to download this but got a DNG Converter instead. Where is Camera Raw? (it does not show up in a search of my hard drive. There is a folder of camera profiles but no extension or plug-in with this name). How do I find out what version I have already? How do I get the correct version?  . . . OR . . . is it the case that Bridge will never open Sony raw files directly and I will have to do a separate conversion process every time I want to use a raw file??. Can someone explain this?
    Thanks.

  • Sony RX100: quality of RAW conversions in LR 4.2 RC

    Hi,
    I've just purchased a Sony RX100 as a replacement for an aging Canon S90. Before that I've tried the fantastic Olympus OM-D (but returned it because of a - for me - serious issue with the Sony-sourced sensor, see here http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1008&message=42126356 and because the support for camera calibration profiles in LR was non-existing). I'm happy to concede that I'm spoiled by the fantastic support LR provides for my D700 and even, S90 RAW images...
    So with that background I've approached the RX100 images with a healty portion of scepticism. What I've found surprised me:
    1) the standard Adobe Standard camera calibration setting gave the best results, the other profiles gave strange (magenta) color casts, especially with direct sun light.
    2) I've found that images taken in parallel with my old S90 to give much nicer colors (though of course with a lot less resolution and more noise) - but again the colors looked much nicer, especially skies, greenery etc. I've also noted (and this was also present with the OM-D images) that the Sony image conversions has a touch too much red tint, which I had to correct manually (this doesn't happen with D700 and S90 images).
    So, I'd like to post my first impressions here for comments ;-)
    Did anybody else have similar results? Maybe I did something wrong?

    Is the DNG opened in PS as a normal picture (not in the ACR dialoge!) with the title "xyz.DNG"? If that is the case, it is actually correct. When LR detects a compatible ACR (which happened after you installed ACR 6.7), it will pass the raw/DNG directly to PS without rendering a TIFF on its own. The file name indicated by photoshop is the original raw/DNG file then.
    When you save the picture in photoshop, it will create the actual image file using the file type and other options (color space, bit depth...) you configured in Lightroom. So the outcome of the whole "edit in..." action is exactly what you want, with Photoshop creating the image file at the time you save it.
    P.S. What happened before updating to ACR 6.7 was that probably sometimes before, the ACR compatibility warning dialog appeared and you chose "render using lightroom", causing LR to produce the TIFF file on its own and Photoshop to load that TIFF file, and consequently also displaying "xyz.TIFF". Now that LR considers ACR 6.7 as compatible, that behaviour is replaced with the new behaviour as described above - and the warning dialog no longer appears.
