Supported camera list?

Is there some listing as to what cameras re supported by the latest PL version?

I trial-ed PL 9 a month ago or so, and the trial has expired. I have not yet upgraded because (a) I am not sure the added functionality, which is really only masking, is worth the cost and (b) I thought I might wait for any Black Friday sales before upgrading. The point is that I can not do another trial.

Just yesterday I upgraded my phone and the new phone (to a Pixel 10 version) does take 50MP raw images. While I don’t plan to use it for photography I do expect there will be times when I want to take photos and I won’t have my normal 4/3 camera with me, so I would like to know if PL 9 supports the photos it takes. My current version, PL 7, does not.

Is there any place I can see if PL 9 supports the raw images from the camera? If I could do another trial I would do that to see, but I can not. I don’t want to upgrade to PL 9 only to find that it does not support the camera dngs.

yes it’s here

Thank you for the link.

Apple is on that list, as is Samsung, but Google is not so I assume that PL 9 does not support my phone and I guess it has no intention of doing so since Google is not on the list at all.

I can understand that, but it is too bad for me as I do want something to be able to process those photos I end up taking with the phone. I could just shoot in jpg, but where is the fun in that?

Maybe you like to check the “new” Affinity Studio → video e.g. here

Thanks, but I did that when it was first released, and it processes the dngs from my new pixel just fine. But I wanted a good workflow tool in case I have dozens of images to process.

The really interesting thing is that I have a 4 or 5 year old CaptureOne app from before their price skyrocketed and it handles this new phone’s dng files without a problem.

I thought dng files were just dressed up tiff files so I am surprised that PL will not process them.

Can you upload a raw file from your phone here then I can see if PL9.2 can read it

The images are 50MP so the file is pretty big. I don’t know if the site will accept such a large image, but I will try.

You can always send it via WeTransfer

Have you tried Pixelmator Pro ? I think it can handle Pixel10 DNG and has AI subject/background detection.

I apologize for it taking me so long, but I have been trying to figure out how to actually take the 48MP image that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold ads say that the phone can take. And I have not been successful. All I could figure out is how to take a 12MP image as a dng and I have sent a Dropbox download link to you as a message.

If it is not too much trouble please try to load that image into the latest version of PL, although I assume it can not be successfully loaded. As I mentioned I can open the dng is the new Affinity app, into my old CaptureOne version 12 and pretty much every other photo app I have other than PL.

Yes, I have, and it will load. In fact it loads into pretty much every photo editor I have on my system, including very old stuff, but not into PL. I think it is because PL checks the camera and lens before it tries to load it, and if it is not on THE LIST it just does not try. But then I am guessing.

PL9.2 does not recognize the file, so it cannot open it, it does not even show in the Photo Library. If I convert it to TIFF (I just used Preview) then it works but the Lens Optimization function is greyed out and only Standard is available from the DeNoise panel.

I can understand why those functions are not fully available, what I can’t understand is why PL will not even open a DNG. I thought it was a standard filetype.

Maybe changing the EXIF data to remove the Camera Maker and change it to something else would work, but I don’t have any software that would do that.

I suggest a request to DXO to accept DNG files just as they do with JPG and TIFF.

Photolab treats DNG files like raw files; if the camera isn’t supported it won’t open the DNG. I’m sure the request to support DNGs from unsupported cameras has been requested before but another vote wouldn’t hurt. Probably won’t help either.

Thanks for the effort.

I could, of course, just convert it using another photo workflow tool, but the whole idea of an app like PL is to only have to use one tool for photo editing. If I use something else like CaptureOne 12, old as it is, then why not continue editing in it rather than going to PL?

I use PL because of its raw conversion. As for the other functionality like Light and Color adjustments, I could do that in C1 as easily as in PL.

Or I could set the phone camera to only take jpgs which would also solve the problem, sort of … I would then lose the raw data, but life is full of compromises.
