Q: Aperture does not support Pentax K 3 RAW format. Any advises?

I just bought a Pentax K - 3 camera. Aperture does not support RAW format. Does anyone else have the same problem? Is there going to be Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update for Pentax K 3?


I would be very pleased if someone could give me some advise,

Heikki

    Only Apple knows when and if a specific camera's Raw format will be supported and they never say before they release the update.

     

    In the meantime there a few different ways to work around this. One is to shoot Raw & JPG and use the JPG now and the Raw if and when the camera is supported. The other is to convert to DNG.

     

    In the meantime let Apple know you want support for the camera, Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback. Don;t know how much good is does but it can;t hurt.
