barjohn Posted April 7, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted April 7, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I notice that when I put the SD card in and open Lightroom on my iMac it detects the card and opens the import preview; however, there are no preview images shown just the frame lines with grey. I am shooting in DNG only. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong? It has the little chck boxes to select or deselect the image but since I can't see a preview I can't tell whether to uncheck or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveEP Posted April 7, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted April 7, 2007 I get this too - would love to find a solution. All my Canon shots show as previews.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiphop Posted April 7, 2007 Share #3 Â Posted April 7, 2007 The same for me. I think we can shoot DNG + jpeg and will get the preview with LR. Usually I shoot only DNG but I will test with jpeg. Might be not perfect but... Pierre-Olivier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephengilbert Posted April 7, 2007 Share #4 Â Posted April 7, 2007 I believe this is a result of the latest Mac OS upgrade. I think I heard that the next OS version will cure it, but that may be just wishful thinking. Â Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sirvine Posted April 7, 2007 Share #5 Â Posted April 7, 2007 It's a Lightroom issue--but only because the Leica DNG files don't generate a preview. If you convert to Adobe DNG first, you'll get previews in Lightroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakley Posted April 8, 2007 Share #6  Posted April 8, 2007 This isn't a problem for me; I just got Lightroom 1.0 for my MacBook, and it generates previews just fine. Have you tried going into  File>Auto Import>Auto Import Settings  and clicking the checkbox labelled "Render standard-sized previews"? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gain a LOT of HDD space (the Adobe is half the size due to compression) but what do we lose, anything? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sirvine Posted April 8, 2007 Share #8 Â Posted April 8, 2007 I don't know, but why not just import everything and cull in Lightroom rather than the import panel? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
