A problem with sony RX199 m 6 raw files


Recommended Posts

 

It seems that affinity has a problem with Sony RX100m6 raw files.

Attached is a screenshot that shows what I get when trying to open a 16:9 raw file

 

No problem with the jpg files. attached is a screenshot of the same shot in jpg (the mode of the camera raw+jpg).

The RX100IV is supported but the RX100VI doesn't show in the Supported RAW list here

Upload a RAW file for us to look at.

You can also use adobe RAW Converter to convert the file to a DNG, this might be a workaround for you until someone can give a solution.

If you are on Mac you could try opening in Preview, if the RAW file opens fine in that you can try changing from Serif's Raw engine to Apples RAW engine.

Hi @arikw,

Have a look at James' reply.

Hey Michael, I take it you have your camera's aspect ratio set to 16:9? When you shoot raw, the camera still records the full sensor resolution (so in your case it would be the full 3:2 image) and writes crop information into the raw file that software can read, meaning the crop is applied later during editing. The benefit of this is that you still have that information outside of the aspect ratio crop should you want to use it.

 

Photo currently doesn't act on crop information, which is why you're seeing the full 3:2 frame. It's likely that support will be added in the future (perhaps cropping initially but allowing users to "uncrop" if they want to) but for now your best option is to use the Crop Tool (shortcut is the C key), choose Custom Ratio from the Mode dropdown and enter 16 x 9. From the dropdown you could choose Add Preset to save this ratio and re-use it on all your developed images.

 

Additionally, if you're shooting JPEGs alongside your raw files, those will be cropped in-camera (and the image information outside of the crop will be completely lost).

 

Hope that helps - apologies that cropping isn't yet supported, it's one of many areas that will hopefully be addressed over time.

Thanks,

Gabe.
