I would assume (hopefully) that .ARW is included with all the Sony A7 cameras out here.
Maybe I am doing something wrong but it works when I use an older .RAW file. The error I get is

Any update on this?

I am currently can't apply it on A1 and 7RV files.

Any suggestions?

You mean you can't apply it on compressed M and S, right? Because it does work on both full resolution options, compressed L or uncompressed.

I would expect this to be implemented in some update down the road, but don't be too impatient. It's probably not a quick fix, as it involves the whole demosaicing process, obviously a bit different on a downsampled file.

This should probably be moved to Ideas so that it can collect votes. It's a sensible request, you don't always need 9504 x 6336 pixels.

@Larry_P , See the following link to an article by Eric Chan of Adobe which explains the Denoise feature recent released. It explains its current features and plans for the future.

Explore the current features and there is also possible to submit new features request in this forum.

That's right, I've tried the different .arw varieties from a7r v.

Uncompressed works.

Compressed L, full resolution, works.

Compressed M and S, reduced resolution, don't work.

Denoise doesn't currently support Sony's 'S' or 'M' raw fomats. Are your files in either of these formats?

I can run Denoise on my Sony RX100M3 files. So there must be some other issue. Maybe if you had a way with sharing a link to one of your raw files we can help you narrow down the cause.
