Surprise, Surprise

13 years 1 month ago #36932 by Baydream
As Gomer Pyle would say, "Surprise, Surprise". I walked up to the horse farm this afternoon to get some shots. I was shooting RAW+JPEG on my Canon XSi. When I returned home, I transferred the photos to my desktop. I moved my Photo Pro X3 to my laptop so I was going to just store then on the desktop for safe keeping.
Was I surprised when I opened Picasa and it opened and edited my RAW files. I was truly shocked. Has anyone tried with Nikon RAWs? It would be interesting.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

It does the same with Nikon's Raw files as well....It won't do my Sigma DP2s's Raw files though...

Cool.
I found the list of supported RAW files
Picasa currently supports RAW formats from the following manufacturers:

* Adobe (.DNG)
* Canon (.CRW, .CR2)
* Casio (.RAW)
* Fuji (.RAF)
* Hasselblad (.3FR)
* Kodak (.DCR, .KDC)
* Leica (.DNG and .RAW)
* Minolta (.MRW)
* Nikon (.NEF, .NRW)
* Olympus (.ORF)
* Panasonic (.RAW, .RW2)
* Pentax (.PEF)
* Ricoh (.DNG)
* Samsung (.DNG)
* Sigma (.X3F)
* Sony (.SRF,.SR2)
They may not have caught up with your Sigma yet.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
