D700 support and more: Digital Camera Raw Compat. Update 2.2

No D90 support?

and here we go again ...

Sigh.

The D90 started to ship in small numbers last week, that means that the final production model's only been available for a few days.

Apple's former speed of raw support updates was slow, the company acknowledged that, said they'd address it. They have released an update today with several very-recently-released cameras, and some legacy support too.

Let's give Apple time to GET the camera before complaining that there isn't support for it?

Problem (possibly) with this new update.

After updating, I opened Aperture and clicked on a RAW file from my Sony A700, and my image initially came up "normally" (looked like the preview) then changed to an UGLY magenta cast. I couldn't get rid of it. Only happened on RAW files.

RECOMMEND YOU NOT UPDATE. Will file a feedback.

Same problem with iPhoto... Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

No Box Brownie support either?

Are you on OS 10.5.3 still? Or have you updated to the latest OS 10.5.5 ( released yesterday )?

I have the same issue as further up the thread...magenta photos, thats definately not good. What can we do to get our photos back to normal state ?


See this thread too:

...and if its not clear....issue happened just after update to 10.5.5. Also using A700.

Another thread, same issue:

When I connect my Nikon D700, the thumbnails are all appearing but unfortunately they are all black !!
I can then import them all but I can't see what I am importing. I hope we will have a fix any time soon.
After a 2 months wait for D700 support in Aperture, this is a real bummer.

Pistol -
Sounds like the Sony A700 images you have are not regular uncompressed ARW raw files but cRAW compressed ARW files? The shots of my camera look like what you are seeing but only the arw files shot with the cRAW setting in the camera. If you don't otherwise need what is in DCRCU 2.2 then go back to the previews raw support on your system -

Delete the file: System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle then (re)install the previous version.

Get the previous version here:

Scintilone -
Are you downloading by connecting the camera directly via cable? If so, remove the media card and put it in a reader. See if that works better for you. It has for others with Nikons....

Sick minds think alike!

I was walking at work and came to the same conclusion - install the RAW 2.1.

THanks for the tip on deleting the older version in core services.

WORKED LIKE A CHAMP!

And, yes, I was using cRAW.

All is right with the universe...

As I posted in another thread, Adobe's just-released Camera Raw 4.6 Beta supports the D90. You can use the DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNGs. This will let you work with them in Aperture through its generic DNG capability while you kick back and wait a few months for Apple to provide support.

Cheers,

Clem, thank you for the workaround, it worked perfectly for my Nikon nef files.

Apple, get your act together.
