Does anyone know when Camera Raw will be updated to be able to process raw files from Panasonic Lumix s5 mark 2? It was released in January 2023 so it's still pretty new. Does it usually take a long time? I had just assumed (I shouldn't have) that the raw files would be the exact same as the previous model, the S5. And I now have a bunch of raws I can't edit, far from ideal!

Can anyone recommend a workaround in the meantime? Some way of converting these Panasonic Lumix S5ii raw files to a format that is readable by Adobe?

Thanks in advance? Fingers crossed...

@Danielle Watt

You can install Silkypix Developer Studio SE (the Raw converter for Panasonic cameras), open the S5 II Raw files and export them as TIFFs which Lightroom can read.

https://www.isl.co.jp/SILKYPIX/english/p/product/manual/man0011.html

Ensure you keep the Raw files for when the update for Lightroom is released which will enable Lightroom to open the Raw files directly.

Thank you so much John, have just tried this based off your recommendation and it works! For some reason I'm unable to "batch develop" as the files as TIFF (error message every time), but it does work developing each image individually. Which, though a bit time consuming, I am really over the moon about! Any idea why the batch develop might not be working? I am trying to do it with about 150 images in one go, so maybe it's just too much...

Hi !

I just received my Panasonic S5 II. I'm happuy but... Lightroom won't open the RAW files 😞

I there anything to do or do I "just" have to wait Lightroom next update?

Any other software would open them?

Thanks

Yes, you just have to wait for an update to come along with the required raw support.

That camera model doesn't yet appear in the list of supported cameras: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

Presumably support will be available in a future Lightroom update.

Hi Team, This camera is out allready for a month now, is there any sight on an update so we can use Lightroom Classic to work with the RAW files of this body type? Version 12.1 (update 3 days ago) isn't recognizing the RAWS.

Thanks, kind regards Wendy

Yes you state RAW, but I need to ask, that was the ARW file corect?

Not, by mistake, the HEF (HEIF) raster format, correct?

Correct! the ARW files. I haven't used HEF (HEIF) yet.

Hello everyone,
I've converted the new SONY a7Rv RAW files into a7Riv files using the exiftool [ exiftool -sonymodelid="ILCE-7RM4" -ext ARW -r ]. It successfully changes the data but I still cannot import the RAW files into Lightroom. Any ideas?

Wait for LrC v12.1, and hope.

ahh, and their it is!

Any news on when to expect an update to support RAW files for Sony A7r5? The camera is basically useless to me until they do. I know there is a workaround that converts the file (one at a time) to appear as if it is a a7rIV file (and that does work, BTW), but is there an automated workaround to convert hundreds of files?

Sigh. This is being asked and answered time after time, and the answer is always the same. Be patient. People who know this are not allowed to tell you because of the NDA they signed.

Is there any word on Raw support in Lightroom classic for the Sony A7r V? You'd think they'd have had compatibility already for such a popular and anticipated camera...

LrC update expected in a couple of weeks hopefully the Camera gets support then.
