RAW files

[Mark1587]

I'm using Lightroom Classic v5 and have just changed form a Sony RX100iii to an RX100v, both outpit .ARW files but Lightroom only recognises them from the older camera, any advice welcome

Adobe 101

see:

For a Sony RX 100v, you need aat least Lightroom v6.8

However, Adobe no longer sells the old non subscription Lightroom any longer. Nor do they support it.

You can either start a subscription, or use an alternate photo processing software, or use a RAW to DNG converter.

David,

Thanks for this, I’d seen the table you linked but misunderstood it, I’ve now tried Adobe’s DNG converter and that seems to sort the problem.

Thanks also for confirming that my version can’t be updated, Adobe’s web site is far from clear on the matter.

Some RAW to DNG converters

Adobe Digital Negative Converter (free)

Iridient S-Transformer (cost, and carefully read info to make sure it works on your camera) (rial?)

Something from Sony?
