Using RAW files in LR that have already some adjustments from another person's LR?

Hi - I have been asked by a photographer to do a lot of processing and retouching for them. They will have around 400 images (a wedding), and I want to use LR and PS for this. However the photographer wants to do their own basic processing in their own LR before sending to me (e.g. cropping), then I will do all the rest. As I still want to use the RAW files (I don't want to work with jpegs!), what would be the best way for me to get the cropped/pre-processed RAW files from them? Will the photographer need to export every single image as a TIFF to send on to me, or surely there's an easier way of doing this? Any help appreciated.

Another option to consider - have them export a catalog and send to you. When finished, you send the catalog back and they import it. Either way accomplishes the same goal but catalog export / import obviates the need to fiddle with xmp files, and if your "client" uses DNG, obviates the need to send big photo files back, unless of course you Photoshop'd the raws and thus spawned tiffs or jpegs for them, in which case you have to send them back no matter which way you go..
Cheers,
Rob

  • How do I open my raw files in Photoshop that have been shot with a Nikon D1700?

    I can't open my raw images in Photoshop, I have updated Photoshop but it is still coming up with ...' Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information'.  The photos have been taken with a Nikon D1700

    It means that you'll either have to use the Adobe DNG converter and convert your RAW files to DNG first, or upgrade to CS6, or use Lightroom to export (TIFF) to Photoshop.
    I used the DNG converter for years before finally upgrading Photoshop.  It was an extra step, but it just became part of my workflow - put card into reader, download RAW files, go grab a beer, batch convert to DNG, drink beer, edit in Photoshop.  But had I known about how powerful Lightroom was I would have switched over to LR long before and just used that to export to Photoshop when necessary.

  • Can I use my Photoshop Elements 7 if I bought it unregistered from another person?

    Hello.
    I am having a question that fusses me lately. I just bought a Photoshop Elements 7 license from someone a few days ago. The person had won the software at a contest, at least that's what he told me, and never used the program. I installed it and registered it successfully which means that the product wasn't registered before me. However, I feel frustrated that I thought that the genuine proof on the box, the serial number on the cd case and the fact that is registered on my account, would be enough to qualify me as being the legal owner of the product. But I heard that I should also have a bill paper and a signed agreement paper from the man that I bought it from so that elucidates the authenticity of the transaction to assume it as being mine legally. I never bought any software from anyone else before so I wasn't aware about these things, I just thought that if I have the original case and original hologram on the box saying "genuine Adobe" , I can be sure I have a legal version of Photoshop Elements 7.  I want to ask you: should I worry that I can be fined by the authorities if I use the program ? Should I request some evidences to the one that I bought it from ?  I really don't know what to do.
    Thank you very much.

    Thank you.
    I was referring to the registration popup when I run PSE for the first time... I entered my details there like name , address... and after I clicked on register, the registration window said "Thank you!" and my photoshop elements 7 appears listed in my Adobe account along with the serial number and software version. The thing is that I have entered my own name and address and other details which I cannot find anywhere now on the adobe page because the email I entered in the registration form was corresponding to a mail assigned to my adobe account. But I made the account long time ago and didn't put much attention to the details and wrote my name in short form..If it has any relevance for whoever controls the license from BSA if I plan to start any business and want to have it for commercial use...
    How can I proove that it is my licence ? ? My name isn't written anywhere... I hope I don't have to buy another one
    That's what I'm asking...: if they see that I'm the one that has access to my online adobe account (even if it not my actual name) and see the product registered there with my serial, and then I show them the box genuine Adobe with the same serial inside on the back of the cd's case, could they consider I use it legally? (I repeat I have no documents and I have no idea what documents I must have with the box, if there are any).
    Thank you and sorry for writting so much.

    Did you buy PSE in the mac app store? If not, just go to Help>Updates in the editor and update camera raw and you should be able to open the raw files in PSE 12 directly without the DNG converter.

  • My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

    My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

    Using the 5th generation iPod. Purchased it a few months ago before the new one was launched. Yes the workout randomly ends when I am no where near the time or distance I have programmed in. I keep tried to restart the workout and the same thing keeps happening over and over again. I figured it may have been the headphones but I have even tried holding the headphone connection in place, and different headphones as well and it continues to happen.

  • How to import Sony EX1 files into FCS (that are already on HD in folders)

    let me try an explain, I have bought some footage, and the person that sold me the footage gave me the raw files. I was shot using a SONY EX1. I have one too, as well as a EX3. My difficulty is that I'm not able to import the files into FCS... when I import my own footage I read it from the SXS using XDCAM Transfer, but as the footage he sold me is already on my HD and in the raw form (in folders divided into files)...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I have been away on a shoot, but finally back, and still have not resolved the problem...I have try to do what you say, but XDCAM Transfer does not recognize the folders... it is strange...any other idea???

  • Error while reading raw file created in previous task using raw file destination

    I am reading a flat file and creating an raw file using raw file destination.  path of the raw file is in a variable.  now I am reading the raw file using the rawfile source component. I am able to execute if the .raw file is available.  But
    when we deploy into the production the .raw will be created runtime, so the package is getting failed while evualting the variable which hold the path of the variable.  since the .raw is not available i am not able to proceed further. it's in ssis 2008
    r2
    Error at Load Data [Raw File Source [401]]: File "c:\test123.raw" cannot be opened for reading. Error may occur when there are no privileges or the file is not found. Exact cause is reported in previous error message.
    Error at Load Data [SSIS.Pipeline]: component "Raw File Source" (401) failed validation and returned error code 0x80004005.
    Error at Load Data [SSIS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
    Error at Load Data : There were errors during task validation.

    I am also using a raw file destination using a variable.
    I have set DelayValidation = true on both the DataFlow task and even the Sequence Container.
    I get the same error when I run the entire ssis package, however
    when I run the individual container or individual task it runs without an error.
    Also, something interesting is the error is not the same path as the variable name.
    Warning: The system cannot find the file specified.
    Error: File "C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Local\Temp\GUIDNumber\\RawFileName" cannot be opened for reading. Error may occur when there are no privileges or the file is not found. Exact cause is reported in previous error message.
    The variable is "C:\Temp\ProjectName\RawFileName"
    I have other RawFile sources in this same project, but only this one file is giving me grief.
    Any other suggestions?  Is this a bug?
    Have you set an expression for connection string property of raw file? Is it based on variable/expression or configuration? If yes, check the value of variable/ expression or configuraton item at runtime by putting a breakpoint in the pre execute event of task
    and make sure path value its getting is correct. It may be that path is getting a different value at runtime due to expression/configuration set for it.

  • "Use RAW files with external editor" greyed out for Photoshop CS2?

    I've just upgraded from iPhoto 5, and the "Use RAW files with external editor" option in the advanced preferences is greyed out when I select Photoshop CS2 as my external editor (back in the General pane).
    It works fine when Preview.app is selected. I can understand that pre-CS2 Photoshop wouldn't be available, but CS2 is capable of editing RAW images.
    Has anyone been able to get iPhoto 6 to send a RAW image to Photoshop CS2 using this preference? I've written an Applescript to do it in iPhoto 5, but I'd rather use something cleaner...
    15" PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Works great with Photoshop Elements, opens with Camera Raw. The issue is you can't save it so that iPhoto gets the changes.
    You have to save it and then re-import. I tried all permutations of saving it in originals and modified folders in the library. No luck. The only thing I didn't try is to save it as a jpeg over the top of the full sized one iPhoto created on import.

  • In Iphoto, How can I delete photos on my iphone that have already been imported?

    I've just spent over the hour on the phone with my sister (who has a law degree, I have an engineering degree), and we could not figure out how to delete photos from our iphones that have already been imported into Iphoto.  I thought Apple was the company that made things easier???  This is a nightmare.
    The way it should work:
    - Launch iPhoto
    - Stand on iPhone (Under Devices)
    - Select photo to delete (under Already Imported)
    - Right-Click Delete (or Send to Trash, or Something)
    Obviously we are not thinking like Apple thinks...does anyone know how to do this, or are these programs as crap as they seem and you have to go back to your iphone and select each photo one at a time (all several thousands of them).
    Don't even get me started on how messed up my photo libraries have become now that I have (fully) switch over to Apple.
    By the way, I like my Mac for everything else...but its photo capabilities suck.

    Thanks, I was hoping for something a little more selective that I could do from my computer, but I think this is helpful.
    Maybe the best approach to get this under control is:
    - Import all photos into iphoto
    - Delete all photos per your suggestion
    - Selectivly sync the photos you want put back on your phone
    Thanks again, I didn't know this and is a helpful trick!
    P.S. I still wouldn't mind finding a way to selectively delete files that are on my iphone from my computer.  (In Windows, you can go to My Computer -> Iphone, open the folder and delete what you want).

  • Apple is making me pay to update free apps OR apps that have already been purchased, More than once??!!

    I have Recently been trying to update several apps of mine, and when i click update all, or one at a time, it takes me straight to my billing information. Then after that it says i need to pay to update my apps that have already been purchased or apps that i have gotten for free, i have never used a credit card to buy apps, i have always just used iTunes Cards to Redeem apps. However, when i took my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.1  to the apple store, the "geniuses" have told me i have outstanding payments on an app so in order to update them, i need to go and purchase more itunes cards.. So i have went out and bought about Three 20$ itunes cards hoping that by using just 1 card - it would fix the problem im having. but it isnt. ALSO if i purchase an app without having the same amount of what it costs it will not let me buy/download it, so how can i have to pay for apps that are already on my phone?? MOST THAT ARE FREE. Can someone please help me solve this issue that actually knows what they are doing?! thanks..

    That's because the billing information is out of date or there was a problem with a previous purchase.
    Then after that it says i need to pay to update my apps that have already been purchased or apps that i have gotten for free
    No. That's not what it says. What is the EXACT message you get?

    Contact iTunes store support and find out what the problem is.

    Um... yeah... That's the way it works. If you want to buy something, you have to have enough to actually pay for it.
    Contact iTunes store support.
    You're not talking to Apple.  This is a user forum.

    Hey, I am unable to install windows 7 using 'bootcamp 5.0' . I have already partitioned the drive as (mac Os Extended Journaled) and yet it seems bootcamp won't acknowledge this?
    My first thoughts were that 'bootcamp' was out of date...needed an upgrade to register windows 7. Since then I am once again met with the same problem... how can it not see the I have already have a paritioned drived ready to be used for installition, is there a way to fix this problem? I don't really want to pay out for 'i-parition' only to merge my 2 drives back into one and start again from scratch =/. Seems silly to do so...what are my options?
    Regards Swishi...p.s If anyone can help me...it'll make my day :3.

    An object in the on-premises Active Directory has a mail attribute that's identical to the object that's reporting the problem.
    An object already exists in your organizational account and has the same SMTP address or mail attribute as the object in the on-premises Active Directory
