Will ACR support the different RAW formats of digital cinema cameras like REDCODE or ARRIRAW?

Will ACR support the various formats produced by digital cinema cameras like REDCODE, ARRIRAW and the other ones?
Support for Cineform RAW would be also welcome of course.
The RAW converters supplied by the manufacturers are no comparison IMHO to what ACR offers in terms of sheer image quality, tonal control (especially highlight recovery and rolloff) simple usability and lack of stuff like lens correction just to mention the most important things.
Coming from a photo background I would love to be able to process everything in ACR as a first light correction. :-)
I don't know if this is just a question of implementing it, maybe there are legal reasons aswell why REDCODE for example isn't supported?

Jim, I know ACR was designed to be a still image RAW developer, but it would be a waste not to use it for many still images (a video is not more than that).
But since more and more video cameras are capturing RAW data a debayering suite like ACR will be necessary for video too. Instead of having an importer for every file format, ACR could substitute them with its superior quality and controls, since it already has almost everything that is needed for processing RAW video it would be unwise not to use it (I see use for compressed video from DSLRs for example too).
The only things that I can see that need to be changed are the denoising (needs a good temporal option aswell) and the ability to scrub through a clip and the possibility to create keyframe for the development settings.
I use ACR for timelapse (video) all the time, apart from the slow processing speed (which won't be a problem with future computers) basically everything is already there.
The next step would be directly apply rotobrushes to the RAW data, but even with a computer with the speed you would expect in a couple of years that is probably a bit farfetched (taking into account, that resolution will also at least slightly increase for video).
Premiere should have gotten still frame ACR support with CS6, some might even argue that it should have been in PP since CS5.5.

Lightroom 3.2 not fully supports the LX5 Raw format ?

I can use the normal Panasonic Lumix Raw files with Lightroom 3.2 just fine.
As soon as I use the LX5 intelligent Zoom feature is LR3.2 (and Camera Raw from CS5) not able to use these files anymore.
Anybody else found this or has a solution - other than not using this feature.

As I understand it the i zoom feature is a processing tool, it either makes a standard image look like a higher resolution one by processing the contour areas, texture areas and smooth areas individually, or it digitally boosts the zoom magnification from 24x to 32x etc. Processing tools may be written into meta data and read by some RAW processors that may emulate this, but on the whole LR ignores them. The exception being the lens correction data written into RAW data by micro fourthirds cameras, so perhaps, Adobe will include this as it does seem they are worked with by micro fourthirds people, (unlike CanoniKon, who seem to work against them!) But for the time being I assume LR would have to ignore it any way as there doesn't exist in LR 3 a tool that does exactly what i zoom and i resolution does on micro fourthirds cameras...
Being a big fan of micro fourthirds machines myself, what's the new LX5 like...it has always been one of the most imaginative of all compacts throughout its life time, I love the LX2 and the 16:9 sensor, but 4:3's is the future for both still and hand-held video photography. Panasonic do some interesting processing stuff and having no software of their own to sell do seem to work closly with Adobe. The new camera profiling tool in LR 3 seems to owe a lot to the processing that goes on inside micro fourthirds cameras to deal with the inherent weaknesses of lenses on small sensors. So I can see the i zoom, i resolution interoperation techniques making there way into LR as well..

When will ACR support the newer Pansonic cameras (G5/LX7/FZ200)

Hi,
Any idea of how long we are likely to have to wait for an update to ACR for these cameras? Even beta quality would be good
Thanks

I can only ask the question.
And it's a question that anybody who knows can't answer...those that know can't say, those that say don't know.
Adobe does NOT offer any advance public warning of updates or betas...they just don't.
And people who work with Adobe doing testing are under NDAs that preclude them from commenting, so the question you asked can't be answered.

When will Adobe support the new Canon S100 RAW format in Lightroom (& Camera RAW)?

Just bought a new Canon S100. It generates RAW files, but Lightroom would not import it as it said it was unsupported. Any ideas when Adobe will start supporting this new RAW format?

Got mine yesterday and discovered LR and PS didn't recognize the camera. To make maters worse the Canon software and manuals are on the included disc. Unfortunately my iMac wouldn't recognize the the disc. I called Canon and they told me the camera was too new and they couldn't help me. They didn't have another disc they could send me or I couldn't download the software on line. They told me to check back in a few weeks. Before I hung up, the rep asked me if there was anything else he could help me with. All I could do was laugh.

PS or LR ACR 7.3 will support the D800 raw files, how do you remove ACR 7.3 so you can install ACR 7

PS or LR ACR 7.3 does not support the D800 raw files, how do you remove ACR 7.3 so you can install ACR 7.1 ?

Not so, Mylenium. It's relatively quick to downgrade Camera Raw with a download and a bit of fiddling. See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1143545

Does CS6 or Elements 11 camera raw plug-in support the panasonic raw file format rw2

Hi- I am thinking of upgrading to either one of these products as my current versions do not appear to support the panasonic raw file format rw2 but would like to know if the latest versions do support this format before I buy.

Note that CP's correct answer implies the fact that each individual camera model must be supported by ACR. You can't go just by the format alone. "RW2" alone is meaningless. Bear this in mind when you move to a newer camera. Check the ACR compatibility list first:

When will Adobe support Nikon NRW file format?

Adobe guys and ladies,
Is there any information that you can add to the dialog shown below that will help me decide if the NRW format used by the Nikon P7000 P&S will be compatible with my >> 10,000 image Lightroom collection?
thanks,
WK
Customer 09/15/2010 11:13 AM
I now shoot topside and underwater (using an Ikelite housing) with a D300S. My work flow is to copy the nef files to Lightroom 3 (for Mac) as dng files for tweaking either in LR3 or occasionally in Photoshop. I'm presently considering a P&S such as the P7000 but I'm concerned that the proprietary nrw format will be a "deal killer". How do I convert nrw files to either raw, nef or dng but not tif? WK
Response 09/15/2010 10:25 PM
HI Thanks for the question. As with any new model software to convert RAW images will have to be updated for newer models. The Microsoft WIC compatible NRW should easily be read and converted by your software once they update for the newer model. Of course for the best conversion we'd recommend using Nikon Capture NX2. Thanks -David
Customer 09/16/2010 08:35 AM
Hi, The issue of file incompatibility is of great concern for many potential P7000 buyers. Let me ask the question a bit differently: Can the NRW format used by the P7000 camera be read directly (or converted to NEF or DNG formats) by available Mac software such as Aperture, iPhoto, Adobe Lightroom 3 or Adobe Photoshop 5? thanks, WK
Response 09/16/2010 08:35 AM
HI Thanks for the update. I'm sorry but you'd have to ask Adobe and Apple about their plans to support the P7000 images. I'd guess based on their support for other RAW format we've produced that they would but since it is their software they would be the ones who could answer. Sorry we can't help more. -David

Of course, Nikon does its best to obfuscate their file formats...
That's a load of CR@P - please cease this continued misinformation.
Even in the earliest days when Nikon encrypted their white balance, it was decryptable via the Nikon SDK (without having to use the rendering feature as well...). Its just that Adobe wasn't using the SDK because the Nikon formats are all based on tif and as such are easy enough for Adobe to deal with without resorting to the SDK that they hadn't bothered. At that time, Thomas Knoll made some off-hand remarks that started a huge wave of misinformation that has been propagated on the internet ever since. In my opinion, he owes Nikon and the photography community an official public apology.
Nikon's purpose in controlling access to the information in NEFs was aimed at quality control, so idiots like me didn't start futzing with their camera data via plugins and fly-by-night applications and smearing Nikon's good name to people who didn't know enough not to blame things on Nikon. In the beginning, Nikon required approval before releasing their SDK to third party vendors. Now, it is available immediately to anyone willing to fill out a form on their website (and it includes complete documentation). Until you, or anybody else claiming this that or the other thing about the accessibility of information in Nikon's camera files, downloads the SDK and plays with it, to see for yourself, you don't know what you are talking about.
The fact that there was a delay between the release of the P6000 and its support in CaptureNX does not prove anything except Nikon was eager to release the camera, and followed up with changes to the SDK and/or CaptureNX after the fact.
I apologize if the tone of this post seems stern, but in my opinion, its time for the misinformation to stop, and the huge body of erroneous information on the internet to begin to be dismantled.
Note: I am not a Nikon defender. I just don't like to see people being unfair to them.

When will Aperture support Fujifilm Xpro1 raw files??

Does anybody knows when will Aperture support Fujifilm Xpro1 raw files?? It have been pendning for a while already, really hope there will be an update soon. Thanks.

I firmly disencourage people to purchase Aperture these days.
To everyone asking me for advise as a Pro photographer.
Apple attitude on this issue is of abandonement and ignorance of users needs.
Unfortunately, the feeling is that this is going to be the permanent standard.
They are not providing translations, not providing support to models such as X-Pro1 that has received inmediate reaction from major developers, neither do care for users that openly claim for RAW support for an extended model as X-10.
This is somehow another sign of apple arrogance in term of market predominant coompany.
If Apple do not begin to lose sales and an importan market share this is going to be worse and worse.
Best way: Ignore Aperture.
Adobe is nowadays the ONLY option for photographers.
I don't like Lightroom so I must select my shots with Photo Mechanic, or Xnview and then go to photoshop.
Sick of Apple.

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play?

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play? At the moment, each artist in the album is being separated and I can't play them together. For example, to play the Halo 2 Soundtrack, Hoobastank, Breaking Benjamin, Nile Rodgers, etc. are some of the artists featured. However, in the Albums category, they are each separate choices. I want to play them all together, but can't. Is there a way to do that?

It sounds like the album metadata is incorrect, or differs from song to song in iTunes. Albums with various artists will play properly assuming all the songs are tagged with the same identical album name, as well as the track number. For the Halo 2 Soundtrack, metadata should look like this:
Song: <Song Title>
Artist: <Song Artist>
Album: Halo 2, Vol. 1 (Original Soundtrack)
Genre: Soundtrack
I had a similar problem with my imported Cowboy Bebop albums and the mixture of artists/album names. Once I adjusted the metadata, all of them play in the correct order just by selecting the Album from the available list or in Coverflow.

You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed.

When will LightRoom support the Panasonic DMC-GH4 camera?

When will LightRoom support the Panasonic DMC-GH4 camera?

Adobe rarely comments publically about future support; however, a new camera is usually supported in the next version of Adobe software. LR comes out every 3 or 4 months and LR 5.4 was released April 7, with a beta a few weeks before then, I’d guess it won’t be too much longer, unless there is some special problem with GH4 support.
The betas are available on http://labs.adobe.com/ so that is the first place to periodically check.
With LR 5.4 there wasn’t a public beta (release candidate) due to the newly added Lightroom Mobile feature that Adobe wanted to keep secret until it was actually for sale.

Does the GeoRaster method SDO_GEOR.exportTo support the Erdas IMG format?

Hi Everyone,
Does the GeoRaster method SDO_GEOR.exportTo support the Erdas IMG format, and SDO_GEOR.exportTo method can export what maximum amount of data?
Best Regards,
Lin

Lin, thanks for your suggestion. the gdal-georaster integration is a great one for GIS and professional usages and can do what exportTo can not do even though it was just recently available. note though, all existing georaster functions, including exportTo, are internally built inside the database server from ground up. this enables users to fully leverage the power of enterprise database and grid computing.
thanks
