Hi guys, I just recently purchase a Sony a7III. I have my file format on my camera set to just RAW.
I've uploaded all of my pictures to my pc (uploaded as .arw files) and upon viewing them on the default photo application for windows 10, it shows a 'filtered' preview (jpeg) of the image for a few seconds before switching to the raw version (dulled out version, no filters, etc).
My issue is when uploading my pictures to Lightroom, Lightroom only shows the jpeg images for me to edit and never the raw. I get this same issue when uploading my pictures to photoshop too.
I have tried everything (and spent hours on this) and cannot find out how to get Lightroom to show me the raw image. I have googled possible solutions and have matched my settings/preferences to x source but still have been unable to solve this issue.
I'm using Lightroom classic 12.4 / camera raw 15.4.
If anyone can help me or has a possible solution to this, I would be forever grateful. Thank you in advance.
