macusque Posted January 19, 2007 Share #21  Posted January 19, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Tried on some M8 DNGs and it works fine, thank you  I tried also to do the same for my DMR, but with no luck. I converted DNG with ADC (same M8 settings). I open the Raw.plist in PlistEdit Pro and I created a new children as with the M8 but I named it "Leica Camera AG-R9 - Digital Back DMR", same Canon-EOS-1D value. Aperture says unsupported image format. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoin Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share #23 Â Posted January 19, 2007 For those of you who have tried this and used the Canon-1D in the value section, I'd suggest you change it to NIKON-D200. It might just be more easy to delete the M8 entry in the property list and then duplicate the NikonD200 entry, then click on Nikon-D200-2 and change the text to Leica Camera AG-M8 Digital Camera. the class now is dictionary and the value field now shows 25 key/value pairs. these settings and especially the m2 0 - 8 keys seem to control the colour de-code. Â I have noticed some reds shifting to violet with the canon but much less so with the Nikon profile. Â I have also tried the DMR strings and the problem I suspect lies with the actual Property list string, I think it really does not matter what camera you have in the value as you'll get some sort of a decode right or wrong, the Property list string seems to be used by OS X as a lookup table of supported camera image raw types and then reads the value as the processing parameters. Â You can check this by just changing the "Leica Camera AG-M8 Digital Camera" string, leave a hyphen out or add a letter and OS X can't read the file. I'll play with it later when I get a chance.

macusque Posted January 19, 2007 Share #24 Â Posted January 19, 2007 I agree that it's probably a string problem with the DMR. Â I used the name I gathered looking at the info on a DMR DNG. I typed exactly what it is listed under Other info: Brand type and Model type (don't know the exact words as my system is in italian). Brand type and Model type in the M8 string are separated by a hypen without spaces, hence I typed the string using the same logic for the DMR. Â I'll try later with other names. Do I have to reconvert with ADC after any modification on the pslist file ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoin Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share #25 Â Posted January 19, 2007 Do I have to reconvert with ADC after any modification on the pslist file ? Â No once you convert the M8 DNG with ADC it's converted no need to re-convert. You can change the raw.plist file and save it but I have found you must restart Aperture for the effect to take place. Â If you modify the M8 entry in the raw.plist and you find aperture crashes every time you open it then just simply delete the M8 entry from raw.plist and re-create it with a last good known entry.

Bill Sievers Posted January 19, 2007 Share #26 Â Posted January 19, 2007 This looks like a project that could suck up my whole weekend. Nah..I'm shooting instead. I have been in Lightroom for one week and love it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scho Posted February 23, 2007 Share #27 Â Posted February 23, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thank you for providing this hack. The same procedure also works well for the Epson R-D1. I duped the Nikon D-100 file in plist and re-named as EPSON-R-D1. Imported images are a bit reddish, but I just made a custom WB preset adjustment to correct for this.
