Raw images – Lightroom and Photoshop CS5 Integration

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Camera RawI have received a question regarding Lightroom and Photoshop integration while working with Raw images.

What if you want to work with Raw images in Lightroom and then open them in Photoshop? Yes, you can definitely do it and straight in Lightroom but the image will open in Photoshop not in Adobe Camera Raw as expected.

However there is a trick that you can use to be able to open  raw images in Adobe Camera Raw. I recorded a video about it so have fun watching it!

I hope you have a fantastic day!

The Secrets to CS5 #9 – Digital Cameras raw file support in Photoshop CS5, Bridge CS5 and Lightroom 2

Photoshop Cs5 Training from Sai TrainingHello. Today I want to share with you something I found.

Quite often people ask me about the support for their cameras when they use raw. The thing with raw is that every time a new camera comes out, software vendors like Adobe working hard on providing support for these cameras.

You need to be aware that if you use quite a new camera, it will only be supported by new version of Camera Raw and you may need to wait before the update is released.

On Adobe website I found an interesting page with all cameras supported by Camera Raw 6 listed. Great resource.

You will find the link below:

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Hello again. A couple more new features in Camera Raw 6 today. We talked a bit about Camera Raw 6 yesterday and I wanted to add a bit more to it.

There are some more improvements to Post-Crop Vignetting:

- in the Style menu there is a new Highlight Priority Mode with additional settings for Midpoint, Roundness, Feather and Highlights to add a touch to the vignette:

Also, because Camera Raw can be used with JPEGs and TIFFs as well as raw images, you can use these enhancements with images from consumer digital cameras and even mobile phones like iPhone.

Very nice subtle changes, new adjustments giving you more power while working with images in Photoshop CS5 and Bridge CS5.

That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed it and till tomorrow.

Have an outstanding day.

Hello everyone. It is Tuesday and welcome to my blog. Today we will talk about new Adobe Camera Raw 6 in Adobe Photoshop CS5 and Adobe Bridge CS5.

Now with CS5 we can enjoy superior quality when converting images while processing raw files nondestructively with Adobe Camera Raw 6 – an industry leading plug-in.

Camera Raw 6 now offers new demosaicing for better raw conversion and an increasing support for cameras (currently over 275 camera models).

Some of the new improvements are:

- noise reduction to both High-ISO images and consumer-camera shots

- easy adding grain to make images look more film-like. There is a new Effects tab in Camera Raw that can be used to add grain, excellent results as shown on the screenshot below!
