Q: How do I import RAW images from Sony NEX 5-R to iPhoto?

I have Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and iPhoto 9.4.2 and have installed Digital Camera RAW compatability update 4.01 but still can't import RAW images from my new Sony NEX 5-R digital camera.. any ideas? I also have Photoshop CS6 - should I import through that if iPhoto isn't a feasible option..?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

A:

This is the list of currently supported cameras

The Nex5-R is not on the List and so that Raw format is not supported at this time.

 

Note: The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.

 

Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:
