Rwl files cs4

By macgarvin , December 4, in Digital Forum. Advertisement gone after registration. OK - there is a problem with the patcher that updates Adobe files, with LX3 as well, confirmed to be resolved by doing a manual update. See link on this Adobe thread here. Kudos Adobe even if the updater isn't working. Look here: Interesting Leica gear.

You can post now and register later. There is no special format on new cams, such as found on Nikon and Canon. Converting their file formats is as normal as with the same converter we know. Yes, I tried to make mine a separate idea and will again, but I was thwarted on my first try by this web site's confused login state machine. What I am hoping is that Adobe will consider supporting the newer CMOS version of the EXR sensors unusual pixel-paired bayer-like mask pattern, multiple modes for split sensor, multiple blend technology for dynamic range extension or low noise mode in ACR as they have spread to five models of camera of which several have RAW support.

Please create a new "Idea" with the request for the Samsung Camera you need so users can vote on it. I usually use Bridge CS4 to go through my pictures, mark them and send them to Camera Raw for retouching and editing. At first i noticed D raw files were not supported, and waited for an update from Adobe. When the update arrived i realized it's for CS5 users only. What this basically means, is that if i want to go on with my regular workflow, to which i am accustomed, i would need to upgrade to CS5.

This makes me furious at Adobe for acting like a bunch of other vicious money-squeezing corporate companies who shall rename nameless. Furthermore, it makes me furious at myself for going out and paying a lot of money for software which will not provide me with the ability to do my work as time goes by.

It's basically the same as Adobe deciding that if you want to go on opening JPG files, you need to pay more money and upgrade. It's utterly rediculous. If I was using a really old version like CS1 or CS2, even CS3, maybe i would have accepted this, seeing that Adobe can't really keep all legacy versions up to date. But i'm using CS4! Oh, and i've heard about the solution that i can convert the files to generic raw format and then use camera raw, but this is not an acceptable solution.

Adobe can't just start adding processes and wasting users' time like this. Please make sure all new cameras are always supported in camera raw for older versions of CS. It's rare in the industry that you get no support for the previous release, but DNG support technically meets the minimum bar, so you can't really say that you are not supported. But I agree that you are forced to upgrade whenever you acquire new equipment if you want to maintain the best work flow.

The counterpoint to your rather stinging rebute is that, unlike many software vendors, Adobe has managed to improve performance and features in every release of Photoshop Every release since then has been much faster and has included features that alone are worth the couple of hundred bucks for the upgrade. YMMV of course, but it really is worth the upgrade. I'm not saying upgrading to CS5 isn't worth it. But i can't afford an upgrade right now, so i'm forced by Adobe to introduce a new, time-consuming process into my workflow.

I see no reason for a camera raw update to be available only to latest version users. I think it's discriminatory, shows a lot of disrespect to the small Adobe user, and is even somewhat unethical, considering they're basically telling me i have to upgrade my software to be able to preserve my work habits. So i'm sorry, i can't accept your arguments. Adobe software is not cheap, and i think using my camera as i'm used to is a reasonable demand.

I basically feel like a sucker. I intended to upgrade in the next few months, but why should i, now that i know that one day my software will suddenly be useless to me? In fact, i'm surprised there aren't more angry comments on this issue. It has always been the case that only the current edition receives camera raw updates. Adobe does not just change a line of code, there is a lot of testing and quality assurance that should be done, and supporting older versions how many versions back?

I do not think that other raw converter software companies act differently. Only Adobe came with the DNG route that allows users of older versions of Photoshop to open their raw files. And Nikon does not even provide a free full-blown raw editor. While I fully understand and agree that it is most unfortunate that you are forced to pay another couple hundred bucks to upgrade your RAW converter to handle the D RAW files, there are two further points that mitigate your right to complain: 1 A tiny bit of research would have informed you of this before buying the D So complaining after the fact seems somehow hollow.

The latter point is especially important. You chose to buy the premium consumer body instead of the D90, D or a used Ds, all of which would have allowed you to also get the upgrade to the software.

And since software is half the battle, you cannot complain that you want that for free while buying an expensive body like the D Zuiko 17mm F2. Edmund Dorf's gear list: Edmund Dorf's gear list.
