  • No Camera Raw Plugin for Canon 1D C – Is one in beta???

    Posted by Jason Jones on January 31, 2013 at 4:33 am

    Just shot a combination still/motion job on the Canon EOS 1D C, only to discover that the latest Adobe Camera Raw plug, 7.3, doesn’t support this particulat breed of CR2 file.

    Last year when this happened after buying one of the first 5D Mark III’s, somebody tipped me to a beta version of Camera Raw that did the trick. Any such item out there now? Anybody …?

    Thanks in advance!

    I’m also looking for one. For the while I thought 1Dx and 1Dc has the same camera raw but no.

    OK, check THIS out: even the software that came with the body – DPP – does NOT see this file type! Amazing.

    So what I ended up doing was this: I use an editing app called Photo Mechanic, from Camera Bits. Brilliant for very fast edits, because it uses the tiny JPG embedded in every RAW file. Well, the latest versions of Photo Mechanic have an option to Save As a full-rez TIF, so that’s what I did. Converted to TIF in PM, imported everything into PhotoShop, and then worked in Camera Raw on TIF files, instead of RAW files.

    Not ideal, but I got the job out.
