Use Camera RAW with the Sony Nex-3
Hey guys!
I want to get more details on my photos.
I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5
Sony NEX - 3 camera Compact (listed in the camera raw compatibility list)
First, I changed the photo cameras to jpg in RAW format and made some photos.
At home I tried to open the files with Camera Raw. Does not work. The sony camera recorded images as ARW file.
So I downloaded Adobe DNG Converter. I've converted the ARW in a RAW file and opened it with camera raw.
So far so good! I opened the FIRST photo with Photoshop. Just to test with 8 & 16-bit also. My camera supports 16-bit?
I compared the RAW file with the jpg created again.
Normally the quality of the raw file should be much better than the jpg compressed, I think.
I took a quick glance at some other pictures of jpg (I shot in JPG Mode) and compared with the FIRST Images (RAW Mode).
I have seen absolutely no difference between RAW and JPG.
I also tried an exact correction of the tonal value at the two images.
Even with the other image corrections. More details, noise, sharpness... even.
With the Sony NEX-3 there was also a program included RAW that opens the ARW files.
I do not see too many differences between RAW and jpg here.
What I a m d INGO evil ?
I must say that I am a beginner camera's gross. I tried for the first time. I thought it would be easier!
The screenshot below see you an image on the left and a 16-bit DNG on the right.
I have not found any difference!
I would greatly appreciate your help and some good advice.
Best regards Andi
You have a lot of questions, and you will get countless different answers.
Firstly, raw images are generally images 12 or 14 bits. Your camera doesn't have to support that, because it's one of the benefits of shooting in raw. Camera Raw opens the images in a 16-bit workspace. Due to the additional bits and other factors as well, you're able to do a lot more with images. If you have deep and strong or extremely brilliant shadows highlights overexposed, you will find that you can recover a lot more detail in these troubled when areas you work with raw image data. The fact is that if you have perfectly exposed image and you're not overexposed areas or mitigate the shadows, it will be difficult to see the difference.
If you really are not a bad thing. You must do some experiments more and some studies to better understand yourself the advantage for the filming of raw images. If you're like most people who contribute here, once you realize you has all the benefits of shooting raw images, you will probably stop shooting JPEG in total.

Camera RAW with the new computer?
New computer with Win 8.1... I use Photoshop CS5 and I have a Canon EOS600D. Please can you tell me what DNG Converter I should download. Also it will combine with PS automatically or I will introduce in plugins for example? LEA In fact, you should be able to use the camera raw 6.7 (plugin) in photoshop cs5, which is expected to open these files in photoshop cs5.
Camera Raw plugin | Supported devices
Applications of camera Raw compatible Adobe
If in photoshop cs5, you go to help > about plug-in and click on the words of Camera Raw, which version would you say?
If it is a version number less than 6.7, you get the update to camera raw 6.7 from here:
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter: for Windows: Camera Raw 6.7.1 update
You can also try help > updates inside, photoshop cs5, but that may not work.

Hi people from Adobe!
Please note that the course Lightroom / Adobe Camera Raw for the Sony ILÇE-6000 camera profile is very inaccurate: there is a serious green cast in the shade!
Capture One Express for Sony (which incidentally is free) makes much more correctly!
Please fix this, because I prefer to buy the LR6 coming mainly to keep my workflow established instead of going the road of Capture One.
A good example can be found in the forum dpreview "shadow LR5 A6K pulling, a mess! Adobe LR is broken? "
Or search for Philp Reeves 3 weeks with the Sony A6000 review "3 Wochen mit der a6000", where he compares to the A7 from Sony, using Lightroom both times to push in the shade.
The Sony A7 is very well where the Earth resembles the Brown Earth, the A6000 photo looks like grass instead.
Please fix this! It is a high volume camera often purchased by passionate or as second body for photographers of FF. Would be really great!
The Reeve photographer explained it, he used on the A6000 f8 and f11 on the A7. Since the Canon FD 20 is a fully manual lens, the EXIF information was added through Exiftool, where he replaced by mistake the correct EXIF information for the aperture used and purpose.
Canon FD 20 mm lens used only on the A7, Sony SEL1018 used on the A6000.
RAW images should be all too bright, since they were also exposed. Jpg files indicated were pushed into LR differently if are not so important. If its not different exposure that causes the problems of shadow, but the Adobe profile of the camera used for the A6000. Of course the A6000 has a bit more noise than the fullframe A7, but as seen after the ARW file running by Capture One and THEN process in Adobe (see flickr link above), the noise difference is low and does not explain the Green cast.

Two versions of Camera Raw on the same computer?
Hello
I have CS5 and Camera Raw 6.7
I have Lightroom 3.6 and I want to upgrade to Lightroom 5.
I can't go to CS6 or CC
I will be buying a new camera, with RAW files are not supported in Camera Raw 6.7
If I install the camera 8 raw with Lightroom 5, I'll be able to:
-Use Camera Raw with CS5 8
-If not, I'll be able to have two versions of Camera raw, 6,7 and 8 on my computer and use 6.7 with CS5 and v8 with Lightroom?
or it would be simpler just to convert RAW files to DNG format and use in CS5 and Lightroom 5?
Thanks for the tips.
ACR 8.x install unless you have CS6 or CC cab 6.7 remains the last word, as long as you have CS5.
But Lightroom 5 will work fine alongside CS5. Lightroom is completely self-contained and does not rely on an external cab.
You can send a file of 5 Lightroom to Photoshop CS5 for further editing and the final result will be the same, it will just be rendered by Lr and ACR. Full compatibility of workflow between the two, however, requires that the versions are at the stage (so both communicate and pass parameters between them, obviously not possible when these settings are not the same).

When I try to open raw files from Sony NEX-5, instead of going to PhotoShop, as all my NEF files, they go to another suite of software that I have (One). I'm on MAC OS with PS - CS6 10.7.5 last and last raw converter plugin 7.1. On One seems to hi-jack this Sony raw files and does not give me the option for settings I get with Adobe's Raw file converter. Any help?
Good news!
Since you have the solution, you can see this article: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1058744?tstart=0
Mark your thread as answer will be useful in many.
Good luck

Ideas to explain why, when you work with raw files in LR 2015 with Edit in PS 2015 and use the Camera Raw filter, the profile in the Lens Correction Panel tab is missing? Mac OS X 10.10.5. I reinstalled the OS and Lightroom and PS, nothing helps.
Hi ParadigmRose,
This is expected as profile tab behavior does not appear under Lens Correction Panel if you go to Camera Raw Filter in Photoshop
However, profile tab would be there if you open a raw image directly in camera raw first.
You can go to the filter menu > Lens correction in Photoshop, if you want to search for profiles with edit in Photoshop.
Kind regards

How do you use the Sony NEX 5R as a webcam for live streaming?
My computer does not recognize my camera as a source for Google Hangouts.
Digital cameras from Sony, including the Sony NEX - 5R, are not compatible for use as a Webcam. If you are interested in a camera that can live streaming, then the HD camera live Bloggie MHS-TS55 is a good option. You can check it out by clicking on the link below:

Task of healing in the bridge using Camera Raw
I am trying to sync the bridge using Camera Raw spot healing (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZ9L0meJCWg to understand what I'm looking for). There seems no longer to be a button select all or Synchronize in Camera Raw is a drop down option in this sense in Bridge as in Photoshop.

Question:
I use Photoshop CS5 version 12.1. Photos I take in Camera Raw with my Canon 60 d are visible and can be worked, but those taken with my Canon 70 d are not. What can I do to be able to view and work on Camera Raw photos taken with both cameras? Y at - it a plug-in that I can use that will allow me to display and work on photos of 70 d and my photos of the 60 d? Helpful suggestions are appreciated.
The 70 d has not supported until the Camera Raw version 8.2:
Devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw
PS Camera Raw versions of CS5 ended with 6.7:
Camera Raw plugin and Adobe application compatibility
You have two options: upgrade to at least Photoshop CC or CS6 or get the free DNG Converter to convert your RAWs 70 d DNG for use in CS5. The last option will always require an additional step.

multiple use of Camera Raw in the same session of Photoshop a Foto
I've seen (some time ago) a presentation where the editor was initially working in Camera Raw with a new foto (original). During the changes in Photoshop, he returned some settings in Camera Raw, edited, returned to Photoshop. He did this switching between Photoshop and Camera Raw a few times.
The command that was used for this option?
Thanks for your help

If you open a raw file in Camera Raw and choose to open it as a smart object on the ACR workflow options option, you can have the raw file into a Photoshop file allowing reaccessing the raw image in Camera Raw. Note, there are some things that you can't do with a smart object as paintinng on the layer and the PSD grows big enough, but using dynamic objects can be useful.

Whenever I want to use Camera Raw preferences, I get the message "the original application of the bridge is not active. How can I fix?
Hi yvesd,
What version of the bridge are you using?
- Please close bridge
- Open Photoshop
- Open a picture
- Select the file > Browse in Bridge
Also, make sure that you have compatible versions of Bridge and Photoshop, as if you use Bridge CC, make sure that Photoshop CC (latest) is installed.
Kind regards

6 of Lightroom cannot read my Canon 5 d Mark III photo files, the import message I received: the following files were not imported because they could not be read. I use the same camera that I used Lightroom 5 with the same cards Compact flash. The files are: DK5A0243. CR2
Lightroom 6 trying to copy pictures to a different directory than what is Lightroom 5. That's why you have the problem.
You can change the directory where you are teaching LR 6 to place photos, or change the permissions on this directory to read & write.
