Support for Pentax K10D - Estimated date?

Any guesses as to when the next update will take place?
I'm using a trial version of aperture, porefer it to the Adobe line, but Adobe sure is quick with its upgrades. It just added the K10D for RAW support while I'm still waiting for Apple.
Thanks.

We K10D users are still in limbo. I tried the demo of Lightroom 1.0. Works pefrectly with K10D PEF files!! So does the Adobe DNG Converter (3.7) application now on Adobe's website.
Alas, I have tried every option for converting Pentax K10D PEF to an Adobe dng and still can't see them in Aperture.
Please Apple, save me from Adobe!

.DNG support for Pentax K10D

Has anyone heard whether Aperture is going to support DNG for the Pentax K10D anytime in the near future?
It's a bummer not being able to just hook up the camera and go. The converter in CS2 is getting old and I'd like to be able to preview and back them up as I go.
Note: I tend to take rumors seriously...feel free to muse.

by the way, instead of asking users who actually
don't have any true insight into the Aperture
development team's agenda about support for your
camera, have you thought of sending a request through
the Aperture feedback web site? this will get the
idea in front of a lot of people who are actually
working on the application
Camera raw stuff is not handled by Aperture, and therefore I assume also not by the Aperture team. The camera raw facilities are system wide, to the whole OS and the services are provided through the Apple Digital Camera Raw updates such as this...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawsupportupdate101universal .html
These updates are global to OSX and provide the camera raw services to any application running under OSX. Aperture is a consumer of these services in the same way that any other application is.

Will be full support for Pentax K-5?

Will be a full support for Pentax K-5 in Lightroom 3.4? I mean camera profiles (I don't like adobe standard).

There is full support for the this camera in 3.3.
3.4 RC is presently out, so try it and see.
If what you mean is will Adobe make any more calibration profiles other than the initial one, the Adobe standard, this is pretty unlikely. If there is a particular problem with the profile sometimes they re write them, but this is usually done following users raising problems at the RC stage.. They usually only provide extra calibrations for Canon and Nikon cameras.
Nothing to stop you using the free tools supplied by Adobe to make your own.

HT201071 When will RAW support for Pentax K3 be available for OSX and Aperture 3, finally? Really very much waiting for it!!!

Support for Pentax K-5 RAW PEF wanted

Request to add support for Pentax RAW PEFs for newly released Pentax K-5. Needed much.

To send your request to Apple you really should used the "Provide Aperture Feedback" in the pulldown menu under Aperture.
This is a user to user forum where you are talking to other users like yourself and not Apple.

RAW support for Pentax K5 II(s)

Any idea when we will be able to see RAW support for Pentax K5 II(s)? I know I can use DNG, but not PEF currently. I am assuming for DNG, there is no dedicated camera profile yet.

I figure:
* Longer than I can hold my breath
* Before the earth is swallowed up by the red giant of the sun.
That said, nobody here knows the answer. Hopefully it won't be too long.

Before you go to the trouble of going through all those steps, be warned that attempting to use Dreamweaver CS4 with SVN could even cause Dreamweaver to crash after updating to SVN 1.6.2. I, too, have abandoned SVN integration with Dreamweaver until the problems are sorted out. I reported this problem to Adobe a couple of weeks ago, and spent a long time working with an Adobe engineer, who was able to reproduce the problem, but not offer a solution. Hopefully, the next version of Dreamweaver will have more robust support for Subversion.

Lightroom Support for Pentax K5IIs

I just purchased a Pentax K5IIs along with upgrading from LR3 to LR4, but it appears that LR4 cannot read my camera's raw files.
Assistance would be appreciated!

While the current official version of LR is 4.2, and the check-for-update feature in the software you have installed will indicate it as up to date, there is a "release candidate" for the new 4.3 version available on Adobe Labs, often referred to as 4.3RC.
This includes explicit support for both the K-5 II and the K-5 IIs.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom4-3/?tabID=details#tabTop
What you get with explicit support (and you will see this both with DNG and with PEF), is the benefit of Adobe's calibration of colour profiles, processing defaults etc for that particular camera. The initial position of the various adjustment sliders may still be zero, but that does not mean no processing is happening; with generic (unknown camera) DNG support such generic processing will, in my experience, not quite get the most out of the camera. Also, one may prefer to adopt (e.g.) Adobe Standard profile as the basis for editing, instead of getting no choices but "Embedded". I don't recall exactly, but I am not sure if lens profile recognition works in this mode?
Generic DNG does not guarantee that the file will be properly used, just that it will become usable. A lot better than nothing of course.
This RC is NOT some kind of a semi-experimental Beta version, with all that entails. It can IMO be used entirely as if it were a final release, though you may prefer to increase the frequency of backup. Also be sure to retain a separate copy of your current Catalog before opening that into the new software.

Camera RAW image support for Pentax K100D

Hi,
Firstly, let me just say I have a MacBook Pro which came preloaded with Tiger. A month or so ago I upgraded to Leopard and I have applied all the available Apple software update.
I recently got a Pentax K100D digital SLR camera capable of taking images in RAW format (the pentax saves these with a .PEF file extension) and I have been trying to view these images in Leopard. I read the article below, which says that Leopard provides system-level support for the Pentax K100D camera RAW format.
*Digital camera RAW formats supported by Mac OS X 10.5*
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306835
Now, my problem is that I cannot seem to be able to open the .PEF files with neither Quick Look, Preview, iPhoto or Aperture. Basically, none of these programs seem to be able to display my .PEF files. Aperture says 'unsupported image format'.
I have installed the software that came with my Pentax (i.e. Pentax Photo Browser and Pentax Photo Laboratory) and these applications can display the .PEF images just fine. For what it's worth, I installed this software before I upgraded to Leopard.
If I right-click on a .PEF file in Finder, the only programs listed in the Open context menu are the above two Pentax applications.
So, what am I missing? Clearly something seems to be screwy in my Leopard set up. Is there some way to 'repair' the RAW image support in Leopard??
I would appreciate any help in fixing this as I would really like to start working with RAW images in Aperture and iPhoto.
Finally, just be aware that I am not an experienced Mac user. I have always used Windows until now and so... if you have a fix for this I would really appreciate a slightly more elaborate response.
Thanks in advance,
Eddie

I have done a little more research on this...
As it turns out, my camera is a Pentax K100D Super - not a K100D. The K100D Super is not listed as one of the supported camera RAW formats in the aforementioned article. So I guess this means that my camera is as yet unsupported. Sigh...

HT3946 Aperture 3 Support for Pentax K-30 RAW?

I'm curious about when/if RAW support will be updated for Pentax K-30?
Is there a Support Page for Aperture where one can submit support requests?
Thanks very much,
Also looking for awesome online training courses for Aperture, and RAW processing.
Paul

Paul,
see this page for the currently available raw support:
Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
I'm curious about when/if RAW support will be updated for Pentax K-30?
Nobody here knows the answer to this; only Apple can tell, and this is a user-to-user forum.
To submit a request, use the Aperture feedback form directly from the Aperture application menu:

Still no support for Pentax K20D RAW???

I could understand if the camera was just announced, or just came out last week, or even last month - but this camera has been on the market for 3 months now! C'mon Apple!
Any word about when we might see support for RAW files from Pentax/Samsung CMOS cameras in Aperture or even iPhoto? Adobe is already there...

I totally agree. PEF is matched to the new CMOS sensor and you are right, the files are considerably smaller. I really hope Apple will support PEF. I have sent feedback, but I imagine if there isn't much call for it, they won't feel it's urgent.

Support for Pentax K20D RAW?

The Pentax K20D employs a CMOS sensor that seems not to be supported by Aperture. I don't really know if the Pentax DNG alternative captures everything that the new sensor can deliver (that's ignorance not doubt, btw). I know the PEF format does.
Is there any way to know how soon Aperture might have native support for the new sensor used in the K20D?

Supported cameras are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
Apple doesn't discuss updates typically, so no ETA on if/when it will be supported. Once of the things on Aperture 2.0 was that future camera support should hopefully come more quickly, but the only way to really know is to submit feedback and wait.

RAW support for Pentax K3

When will Aperture RAW support be updated for Pentax K3 be added? It's already on Adobe Lightroom....!

I my exeprience, I'd say when it's ready and not a moment sooner.
Lightroom is always pretty quick off the mark with support, but sometimes that carries a quality cost, like happened with the Fuji X100 and X-Trans sensors. Lightroom's support came out first, but Aperture's came out better.
I have a similar frustration having just bought a Sony A7. But I simply shoot raw+JPEG and use the JPEGs until the raw support is ready.
A side benefit of this approach is it makes you get to know the camera settings a little better in order to make the best JPEG.
If I have an emergency and really messed up a shot and need the raw to recover it, I use the raw converter supplied with the camera to make a better conversion in a TIFF and then add that to Aperture.

RAW support for Pentax istDS2

Would like to buy aperature, but istDS2 not supported. Is this a possible solution? (from http://ok1000.blogspot.com/2006/06/waiting-for-aperture-and-iphoto.html)
If you have OS 10.4.6 or later, but don't have support for your Pentax's .PEF format, the trick is to dig down to the .PLIST settings text file that Apple's RAW support looks into when opening RAW files, and to create a custom entry for your camera, such as the *ist DS. Brought to you by Karl Geiger from the Aperture Forums, with my special thanks to Peter Gnemmi, here's a recipe for getting your DS .PEFs into iPhoto and Aperture.
Keen to try this, but don't want to screw up the application - suggestions?

Why don't you post you question in the Aperture
forum?
As I understand it, recognizing the specific camera
is part of the system recognizing this particular
camera, which would then likely cover iPhoto as well
as Aperature
Thanks for the reply...new to this forum.

Support for XML / Web Service Data Source?

Do you know if and when Crystal Reports for Eclipse will support using the XML / Web Service data source? It appears that only JDBC and Java Result Sets are currently supported. I am using:com.businessobjects.integration.eclipse.library_1.0.0.v671 com.businessobjects.sdks.jrc.11.8.0_11.8.1.v671 Thank you! 

Ok, I copied the JARs (such as CRDBXMLServer.jar) from the JRC SDK (from Eclipse all-in-one) onto the Tomcat classpath and got rid of my previous problem. I now get the stack trace below. I also can not find crdb_*.dll files (such as crdb_xml.dll) anywhere on my system other than the service pack 2 rollback directories.
