Camera Raw

My husband and I have an issue importing Hasselblad fff files (produced by Hasselblad's Phocus) into Lightroom Classic. We often shoot in a different aspect ratio (1:1, x-pan, etc), which is shown on the rear LCD and in the jpg images. It seems the in-camera aspect ratio chosen (as shot) is not reflected on import into Lightroom Classic. Our Lightroom version is 14.0.1.  This happens for both of us, operating the same Hasselblad camera system and different installations of LRC on 2 Mac Studios.We also have a FUJI system, in which the raw import does show if an alternate in-camera aspect ratio is used.   Finally, if we instead import the 3fr file into LRC, the crop DOES show. However, the 3fr file is much larger (30 to 40% larger) than the fff - so it would be preferable to use the smaller sized fff. I am hoping that this may be a bug that can be fixed so that we can find a workaround while the issue is addressed.  Do you have any recommendations?  I can supply

Hi everyone !I am using Photoshop elements 2021.After editing a RAW file, how can I save it into a JPEG file ? In the left bottom corner, I only have a button called "Aide" (which means "Help"). I have no button called "Save", as I have seen on some youtube help videos.The only format available when I want to save is DNG. Does anyone can help me ?Thnak you in advance. 🙂

Hi,Auto sometimes works, sorts out exposure and colour balance etc.If I draw a mask for the area I want auto to work on, I then dont see an auto expsure button to use !Its not doing anything at all in my image of a wall grasses and a bright sky so I want to apply auto to all but that sky.If I were in photoshop I would reach for levels auto, also a good one to do. or adjustments auto colour.where are any of the autos for when we have masked an area for applying changes to ? I can mess about for ages sliding sliders to and fro, trying to create the average scene from what is one but is incorrectly exposed or has a colour issue etc, grasses and bushes auto should understand. Merlin3

Hi,Could someone please do a step by step on selecting sky and not branches and leaves of trees and grasses on an embankment etc.Sky sounds good until it doesnt get the parts between branches leave and doesnt exclude tall grasses and weedy plants etc  on an embankment etc. I am sure I am not the only one who when having to brush over these bits with a less than wonderful choice of brush sizes at the small end of the choice, is thinking this isnt right. both on brush choice and having to do so at all. Here is mask 1 filter sky and as you can see its not great at the bushes, then create mask 2 luminance and click sky near a bush, better, but how do I then combine the two, I see no means of doing so, dead easy in pshop but raw seems useless at selections and masks compared to what one can do in channels.Am I missing something, I wish to combine the best of these and get a decent sky selection. How is that then done ? Merlin3 

Hi, 2 weeks and still trying to get set up sorted.Having just installed Pshop 26.2 and set up RAW 17.1.1 with 18% grey interface, for correct colour and brightness judgement, having installed Bridge from the Cloud apps that came with the purchase, (as it doesnt do so in the install )I use Bridge to open 4 images at same time into raw, as Pshop wont do so, (wish Adobe fixed that issue, been with us since CS3)but Bridge opens a different raw interface than does Pshop 26.2dark charcoal grey.Should it not be the same raw converter whichever way we come at it ?I will have to alter prefs in it to match those in Pshop route, and if I alter one, then alter it from the Bridge route as well. or does it at least adopt the prefs from when I set them in 26.2 ? It ignored the grey one. and is Lightroom likely to also open a different raw again ? Merlin3

Hallo, ich brauche unbedingt mal Hilfe.Seit zwei Tagen habe ich das Problem das, wenn ich in Photoshop den Camera Raw Filter öffne meine Einstellungen mache und dann OK drücke, dann friert meine komplette Obere Menüleiste bei meinem MacBook ein. Ich kann auf keine weiteren Filter mehr zugreifen, keine Datein speicher und die App auch nicht schließen. Ich erkundige mich bereits seit 2 Tagen, was ich machen kann um diesen Fehler zu beheben. Das MacBook ist auf dem Neusten stand sowie Photoshop und Camera Raw. Den Cache habe ich bereits schon geleert und habe auch versucht den GPU umzustellen, allerdings alles erfolglos, denn das Problem besteht weiterhin. Die Anfoderungen für Camera Raw 17.0 sind ebenfalls alle erfüllt. 

Hello,it seems like since the last update of Photoshop to Version 25.11.0 Camera Raw stopped working.When trying to use the shortcut or opening it from the dropdown menu (Filter > Camera Raw Filter), it seems something is happening, however the camera raw window itself is not visible at all.How do I get to that conclusion? When using the shortcut, the options to edit the image itself disappear - plus when using the ESC key they reappear.So it seems like the window is somehow open but not visible?!Is there anything I can do? Anyone else got that issue?Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out because I’m experiencing an issue with the transition between Camera RAW and Photoshop, and I was hoping someone here might be able to help. Here’s the situation:I opened a RAW file from my Hasselblad camera in Camera RAW and processed it as I usually do—using light masks and making all the necessary adjustments. Everything looked great in Camera RAW, with smooth gradients in the background transitioning beautifully from white to black. However, when I opened the same file in Photoshop, the gradients didn’t appear as smooth anymore. The tonal gradations, particularly in the background, seem to lose their softness in Photoshop. I’ve never encountered this issue before, and it’s happening consistently on both my Mac Studio and MacBook, so it’s not device-specific. I’ve already tried several troubleshooting steps, including:• Testing different color profiles and ensuring that both Camera RAW and Photoshop are usin

Am I correct in thinking that we have to manually apply denoise in camera raw for each image file? We can't include that setting in sync?

Hello.Problem.I've just started to convert 16 years' worth of Canon RAW files to compressed DNG to save space. I'm using the latest DNGC build 17.1 and noticed that on my main workstation, it struggles with having so many cores. The program assigns a conversion to each CPU thread, so my PC is loading 48 RAW files at a time. The Task Manager is showing 100% CPU and 50% RAM.When I run DNGConverter on my two Acer laptops and an old Intel PC from 2017, I get better performance, so something is definitely not right.If I run the conversion from the Samsung SSD 990 PRO 4TB drive, the performance is okay. But all my files are on many external HDDs connected via USB3. What I can gather is that USB3 is causing a bottleneck, and having so many RAW files loaded at once into 48 threads is also bottlenecking. Fixed it?After some tests, it seems that if I boot Windows via msconfig with only 12 cores selected, the CPU is at 98% to 100% and memory is at 15% to 20%, so there is plenty of RAM headro

Hi  I was able to use the denoise AI at first (and it worked great), but now every time I use it, it starts to process and then then about half way it pops up an error message (see screen grab), before it can generate the dng.It has also crashed and restarted my machine a few times. My machine is fairly old, but it does tecnichnically meet the requirements to use this feature.  My software is up to date, and therefore my GPU is up to date.   I have searched formums and found similar, but not exactly same issues (mostly microsoft users).  Tried: processing an 8 bit file instead of 16 bit. This worked once, but not repeatable. Anyway i woud like to be able to process 16 bit files.  Updated to latest software etc. Short of a full full system clean install I'm hoping there may be some solutions here.

Hi! I've been dealing with this issue for a week and I can't find any solution. When I try to edit a CR3 picture and open it with Photoshop, it says that the GPU acceleration has been disabled for the rest of the sesion because a timeout execution error.  I have a Laptop with an internal GPU Intel Iris XE and a dedicated GPU Nvidia GTX 4060 Laptop.I've tried this KB: https://helpx.adobe.com/es/camera-raw/kb/acr-gpu-faq.htmlAlso reinstalled GPU drivers, force apps to use Nvidia Graphics Card and none of that worked.I've tried to downgrade the Graphics Card drivers, Photoshop, Bridge... Nothing worked.The only thing that worked was disabling Intel Iris XE but the entire system started to go slow.The Graphics card is compatible with both Apps, I did the checking.Any help will be appreciate it.  My OS is a Windows 11 Pro with these specs:CPU: Intel 13th i7-13700HRAM: 32GBB.R 

My new Camera Raw 17.1 is automatically applying any changes I make to one file to a duplicate sitting in Adobe Bridge. I created the duplicate to do something different with, which I have always been able to do. How can I correct this?Mac OS Sequoia 15.2. Photoshop 2025. New computer and big jump for me in Photoshop/Bridge etc. Trying to resolve quite a few changes I don't like!

After editing my images in Adobe RAW, I click open (Bottom Right) but nothing happens, why?

I have a DJI Mini 4 Pro drone. I believe, at least according to the Adobe website, that it is compatible with the latest version of the .DNG converter (17.1) for Mac. I've downloaded it, but it doesnt recognise any of my .DNG files. They are all greyed out. Am I missing something? I have an iMac 2019

.CR3 RAW files from a Canon EOS 5R mk II will not display in MacOS preview if "HDR (PQ)" is enabled on the camera. Disabling the "HDR PQ" option and the .CR3 RAW files can be previewed fine.What is HDR PQ? https://en.canon-cna.com/get-inspired/tips-and-techniques/hdr-pq/ Please fix this. I believe it should be possible to preview .CR3 RAW files even if HDR PQ is enabled.Not sure if Adobe needs to fix it or Canon or Apple?

Hi all Trying to convert my ARW files to DNG for Lightroom processing (which I have done many times before), but seems like DNG converter has stopped recognizing my photo files - when I go to Select Folder, all of the photo files are grayed out.  This is also true if I look at other file types like JPG.  I tried updating the DNG converter and restarting but no luck. My hardware/software for reference: DNG converter 17.1.0.2100Mac OS M1 Pro, running Sonoma 14.5 Thanks for any help!

Hello, Since the latest update of Photoshop 26.2 and iOS Sequoia version 15.2, I can no longer use the Camera Raw filter in Photoshop. The error message states: **"Camera Raw requires GPU acceleration to edit photos."** For your information, I am using a 14-inch MacBook Pro with an Apple M2 Pro. My GPU compatibility is fine, and my graphics processor is detected under the Settings -> Performance tab. If anyone has a solution, I’m all ears.

Hi gang.  I have a 2020 MacBook Pro (Intel chip) and when I try to select the People mask in Adobe Camera Raw, it says "Your computer does not have enough graphics memory to support this feature."  To get around this, I was considering buying an external GPU that would give additional graphics memory.  I looked for past posts about this to see if this would work, and I found some older posts that said Adobe does not support external GPUs, but these posts were from 4+ years ago.  I saw an article from 2022 that seemed to say Adobe would support external GPUs in their Creative Cloud apps (https://appleinsider.com/articles/19/04/07/new-adobe-creative-cloud-video-editing-applications-now-dramatically-boosted-by-egpu ), but I had hoped to find some more definitive answer that my solution would, in fact, work before I purchased an eGPU.  So, does anyone know if I will be able use an eGPU connected to my 2020 MacBook Pro (that has Thunderbolt 3 ports) and then be

Camera RAW latest update 15.3.1.1455 main window causes my Logitech mouse to slow considerably when moving it while making adjustments.  If I move the mouse around the perimeter of the main adjustment window it moves normally.  As soon as I move it onto the main adjustment window the drop in speed is like moving it through molasses.  The previous version was problem free.  Windows 10 machine with 64GB of RAM, Intel Core I9-10900K processor, 64 bit OS.  Mouse works normally in all other apps including PS and Bridge.  I do about 80-90% of my image processing using Camera RAW so this really impacts my productivity.
