Camera Raw

Can anyone else confirm this bug with version 16.0.0.1667 (seemed to start in version 16.0).   The Vignette Effect now seems to just turn the image white rather than correctly blending properly.   It really  bad.  1. Load a dark image with or without vignetting. 2. Wihout making any other changes alter the Vignette setting under the Effects Panel3. Note how the effect now turns edges totally white instead of just brightening the color. This cand't be correct as it totally messes up the results. Looking to see if anyone else see this odd behaviour. I checked the forums but can't find any other mention of it.  -Darv

The other day I realized that Camera Raw seemed to have reverted to an older format. I removed and reinstalled PS completely. But camera raw still seemed to be an old format. I then got on the community and discovered many others complaining!! What the heck, Adobe? Things like the dehaze slider are now in effect instead of lighting, and many other changes force us to totally change workflow patterns and have to stop and search when we are trying to be productiveVas efficiently as possible! Unacceptable!   I'm getting sick and tired of programmers and designers just doing [cursing removed] changes just to try and justify their jobs! Some adults need to take charge and make Adobe great again. Being productive and efficient in our workflow helps us to better utilize our time as photographers and run a business. Adobe seems to purposely attempting to destroy this ability. Why?   Enough ranting, just fed up!  

/BUG?/ Adobe DNG converter does not transfer MakerNotes tags from Canon CR3 to DNG ( Canon R5 in my case )but it does for example transfer all that from Fuji RAF to DNG or for Sony ARW to DNGof course I can follow up with something like : exiftool  -TagsFromFile  source.cr3  -MakerNotes destination.dng  -overwrite_originalBUT this is grossly inconvenient... AND MORE SO absence of makernotes tags deprives /some/ other raw converters  from accessing, for example, focusing distance tags that are available in CR3 raw files ( no, please do not suggest those converters to use XMP tag like 'x:xmpmeta/rdf:RDF/rdf:Description/aux:ApproximateFocusDistance' for ACR/LR that Adobe DNG converter does write for CR3 conversion case, it is not what manufacturer readily provides  and Adobe DNG converter does not consistenly writes that for other camera brands, not for Sony for example... can't blame not writing for Fuji because Fuji does not write that itself in R

Hi, I would like to use Dehaze but I can´t find it. I have version 5 and version 14.4. I have the Swedish version but that would´not be a problem I guess? I have tried photos that are new and newer been processed by any older version. There are no triangle that indicates that I should upgrade. Any ideas?

In the previous versions I could tune the lastest point in the blacks and in the white, it's now "fixed" in the corners. I cannot find the setting access to save only a curve. And more than this, when I apply a curve preset I've made before, it's working on the photo, but the actual curve in ACR is exactly the same, and I cannot tune my preset...The curve settings are gone? Is it a "strategic" reason ? Like, Adobe prefer us to work on curves in photoshop more than ACR ?I want to find a way to use an older version of ACR.

[Moderator moved this conversation to the ACR section.]   Hi Adobe,   Sometime between my last two jobs, the format of Camera Raw seems to have changed again. 'Light' and 'Color' are now in seperate tabs that can't be opened at the same time ? This has slowed my workflow by a fair degree.   Is it possible to go back to the one tab or forget this version and revert to the previous ?   Cheers, David.

When I open a file useing Camera Raw I get the following result: Anybody know a fix?

I've had a similar issue in April '23, with ACR showing oversaturated colors compared to PS/LR when HDR Output in Tech Previews was enabled. Disabling would help, but then of course HDR editing would no longer be possible. After a few Adobe updates, this issue went away by itself. I am mentioning this because I assume my current problem is related. Current problem:Having HDR display on, opening an image in ACR looks different (oversaturated) to PS IF: image has been changed to 32 bit before (necessary for HDR editing); this happens for RAW files as well as edited TIF files and even JPGs. However, it only happens on my external monitor, NOT on the internal laptop monitorAlready tried:Deactivate GPU in preferences/performance: no effectDeactivate GPU in file handling/ACR/performance: no effectDeactivate Native Canvas in preferences/tech previews: no effectDeactivate HDR Defaults in ACR Preferences: no effectDeactivate HDR on external monitor: PS and ACR match!For 0.5 seconds when op

Good morning, everyone,I'm a photojournalist and I edit all my images in Lightroom, these days I've been trying to use version 16.0 of Camera Raw, but in my taskbar the CROP option never appears and the "C" and "R" shortcuts don't work. I've seen several videos on YouTube and they all have the crop option in the toolbar.Can anyone help me?I think it's a question of customizing the icons to appear in the Camera Raw taskbar but I can't figure out how to do it.Thank you.João Aragão, PortugalTranslated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) 

Hallo,Ich verstehe es nicht. Ich hatte im "alten" CameraRaw die Grundeinstellungen gespeichert. Details, Objektivkorrekturen und noch ein paar andere Kleinigkeiten und diese als Standardeinstellungen gespeichert, so dass diese beim Öffnen für alle Fotos automatisch angewand wurden.Im neuen CameraRaw 16 (Windows) sind zum einen die Standardeinstellungen von 15.x nicht übernommen worden, ich bekomme es auch nicht hin, diese Einstellungen als Standard zu setzen, so dass beim Öffnen von Fotos diese Einstellungen übernommen werden.Ich speichere sie unter "Einstellungen speichern" ab, muss sie aber jedesmal neu laden. Wie kann ich die Standardeinstellungen ändern, damit sie beim Öffnen der Fotos in Camera Raw 16 automatisch angewendet werden? Danke

I am very impressed by the introduction of this advanced color tool. I watched several presentations, so far, and kudo to Adobe Photohop's engineers! I really like Julianne Kots coverage on YouTube, btw. Only one "problem" and to me it is a big one. Why on earth did the team chose the term "Luminance"? Over the more fitting "Lumnosity" term, as in Hue, Saturation and Luminosity? As far as can see, Camera RAW has no influence on the "actual Luminance" in Candela/meter square being emitted by the monitor? Does it?Luminance is a long standardized CIE term. It has a physical definition and is being used wrongly here. If you have any doubt, please refer to CIE Publication No 18.2 "The basis of physical photometry", Section 4.2 where it is defined along with Radiance.  It should be changed over to "Luminosity" which is what's actually going on while editing color using the Point Tool in Camera RAW. Please, Mr Adobe. Do everyone a service and change it in the next dot release.&

I am using Windows 11 and Camera Raw 16.0.0.1677. I notice that DNG images converted from Canon CR2 RAWs using either Camera Raw 16 or DNG Coverter 15.3 with compatibilty set to Camera Raw 15.3 or later will not cooperate with Exif Tool (Phil Harvey). I occasionally use this tool to write missing lens serial number data to DNGs but it will no longer work and generates an error message (which disappears without giving one a chance to read it!). Its works fine with DNGs converted with compatibilty set to Camera Raw 14.0 or later however.Has the DNG specification changed very recently? Perhaps Exif Tool requires updating? 

How to  undo camera raw 16 update?My computer is no longer compatible.

When HDR is toggled on and off, clipped highlights become visible, nothing else changes... unless curves have been edited with one of the 4 preset variables. No other tools or sliders have this effect. Once curves are used, HDR SDR equivalence gets broken. This looks like a bug becasue no other tools behave like this, and it can also be very inconvenient. To handle HDR and SDR consistently curves should not reuse the 4 points/variables "Highlights" "Lights" "Darks" and "Shadows", but should instead add 4 more variables that control the HDR half of the curve. This way controllable resolution of the curve tool will also not be cut in half by switching to HDR mode. Custom point curve mode of this tool already works like that, and does not have any of the issues described. Currenrtly workaround for this bug is to always be in HDR and use "Preview for SDR Display" with Contrast -100, Clarity -100, and Whites +100, instead of switching to SDR mode.

Getting the "Merged results exceeds max size" message when combining two images from my Nikon D850. I don't know if it's relevant, but there was an update to Photoshop this morning.

I can't get it to work, and my ny camera need new camera raw 😞 

Hello,For two months, my Photoshop and Bridge have been blocked by Camera Raw.- I launch Ps v25.0 or Br v14.0.0- I send a file (JPEG or CR), to the Ps CR filter or to the Br G icon, these two applications are blocked.- I have to force the closure from the task manager.- When I open "help/about external modules", it’s the same.- All updates are done.- Windows 11 Family 24-bit v22H2 - 64-bit operating system, x64 processor - AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX with Radeon Graphics 3.30 GHz RAM 32.0 GB -Thank you all for your help.

Gostaria de saber se consigo fazer um downgrade para a versão anterior do Camera Raw, esta atualização não está reconhecendo a minha GPU, é uma placa antiga GeForce GTS 250. Até a versão anterior à essa estava funcionando perfeitamente.

Hello, I just learned how to get what I wanted from my product photos using Camera Raw. Using the white balance tool was critical. I updated the software, but now the tool is missing! I tried hitting, "i". Did it move? It used to appear right below the Edit Section...right? I have no way of moving forward without this tool. It was perfect. Is this tool gone for good or is it a bug of some kind? Thank you for any help. Holly

All camera RAW adjustment sliders no longer labeled when file opened from bridge. 

¿Es posible volver a la versión anterior de Cámerea Raw?

Hi all,It would be great to have full color control in masks instead of only color and tint bar.So often I have a bluehish background in the shadows, or artificial light orange that I´d love to fine tune only in a part of the image using masks, but color and tint bar is too generic for me...The color mixer is only available at the first level and not in masks. I wonder why since long ago, always thought a next release would add it, but no.Another tool that would be great in masks would be a hand-free selection tool (herramienta lazo in Spanish)Any thoughs about this?
