Getting JPGs quickly from RAW
Mar 23, 2012 11:15:40 #
My next suggestion would be to remove cs5 from computer and reinstall and if that does not work i would call adobe, have them trouble shoot and by any chance do you belong to NAPP (photoshopuser.com) if you do contact them.
One of these should come up with the answer that you need without going to an additional expense. that would be my first line of defense before going to other expense for i using cs4 and plan on upgrading to 5 and i just downloaded the beta cs6.
good luck with my suggestions.

Sounds like you should set your camea to largest jpg files if you just delete the raw files after loading them onto your computer, seems like a waste of memory card space..as for all your other photo software crashing dont have a clue....

I keep thinking that I'll do something with the RAW files, but I never do. Memory card space is not an issue, though, and neither is computer disk space.

You could do it in Photoshop by selecting a whole group of photos and dragging them to Photoshop. You're then presented with multiple thumbnails in Camera Raw, and if you [Select All] you can then [Save Images...] as developed JPEGs.

I only shoot RAW (I'm a Nikon user and my raw files are NEF). I import those files into Lightroom 3 and convert at the same time to DNG files (Abode's raw format). I than review all the files and make a collection of the ones I like. I then edit each file and then batch save to a new folder in jpeg format. Some files require more editing than Lightroom and I then edit those in Photoshop CS5 and save as a Tiff file. I used to shoot some Raw + jpeg but found it annoying because I would eventually edit most in Raw and end up with two jpeg files and have to go through and delete the first jpeg file.

There's something I haven't tried yet. Thanks.

There's something wrong with your computer. CS5 Camera RAW should easily open your RAW files. Did you try using CS5 Bridge? Bridge should view them, and it has a batch conversion to jpg. Also, double clicking the image from Bridge automatically opens RAW files in Camera RAW.

Bridge and Camera RAW opens RAW files, but I really thought that it would easily handle 150 RAW files, which it didn't.
I've heard that lots of photographers shoot RAW only and that's what started me thinking about how they process a day's worth of RAW images.

No typical pc has enough ram to handle 158 raw images if opened at once. The confusion is that LR4 worked but the difference is that LR doesn't really open the file like PS or the other wanna be's. My only contribution trying to dispel the confusion in the thread. :roll:
The correct way would have been to create an action that made any corrections to the raw file then open and export each file but LR handles it much more easily and efficiently.

Canon recommends the software that came in the box - Digital Photo Professional - it even has a Batch Process. Picasa works too and both are free.

It never fails to amaze me how many people feel it necessary to post without reading previous comments, or having any real knowledge of the product they are guessing about. GMCASE has it correct (as do a few others): "No typical pc has enough ram to handle 158 raw images if opened at once." Photoshop and Lightroom, and any other software that is capable of doing batch processing solve the ram problem by opening and processing one image at a time. This is time intensive, but it is a simple matter to walk away from the computer and come back later to find everything converted, labelled, and nicely sorted.

I agree - a little "liquid knowledge" often goes a long way (though not always in the right direction).

Your Canon should have come with Digital Photo
Profesonal that should open your Raw img and be able to convert jpeg.
