Among the Lightroom CC/6 announcement Adobe also released the new Camera RAW 9 software. It adds RAW support for the new E-M5II and GF7 cameras.

It also adds raw support for the compacts SH-2, TG-4 and ZS50 (TZ70 in Europe). These small-sensor compacts aren’t exactly known for their stellar IQ in JPEG. I wonder if it’s possible to squeeze more out of the raw files, than the cameras’ JPEG engines already do?
8.8 version has already support for em5II
But 9.0 now has support for the Hi-Res 64Mpix RAW natively (without the need to install Olympus plugin) 🙂
I could work with a raw em5II image from Imaging Resource (9280*6938 px and another one of 9212*6916 px) with PS CC 2014 and ACR 8.8 without installing any kind of Olympus software.
Uh? I’m quite sure I have tried with the same IR file you are mentioning immediately after it was available and it didn’t worked without the plugin… Probably it was even prior the 8.8 and I’m remembering it wrongly. Thanks for pointing it out in any case. 🙂
I can prove it, with exif of one of that photos (if you tried to work with them).

Just a qestion, what olympus software are you talking about?, because i dint know nothing about it.
thanks for chat 🙂
That didn’t take long. Oh wait. The other thing …
I think camera manufacturers and Adobe need to work on their communication and cooperation? I realize there’s a whole level of secrecy about upcoming products but that’s what non-disclosure contracts are for.
