Adobe released the new CameraRaw 8.5 which now supports the three new Sony cameras (A7s, RX100m3 and A77II). There are also two new lens profiles for the Sigma 30mm F1.4 DC HSM (A-mount) and Sony Alpha 28-75mm F2.8 SAM. Here are the links and a note on a known RX100M3 bug:

Known Bug
- Customers using the Sony RX100 M3 and capturing images at ISO 125 may find the default rendering in ACR and Lightroom too dark. This is a known issue and we are working to improve this in a future update.

Oh no, more adds for Adobe bloatware….
Yes, given the wealth of high quality viable alternatives to photoshop… There’s elements (if you can live with the dumbed down interface of the current version) , paintshop pro (assuming you can live with its dubious stability), serif (if you can decipher it) or gimp (nuff said).
What lead you to believe we are speaking about photoshop ? The article is about ACR.
But anyhow, lots of alternatives, even ones that don’t make hidden adjustments to your precious files before you get to see them.
Bloated comments from you as well, I see…
Well, Adobe is still the number 1 problem issue on my computer´s due to all the failures, update failures, security treats, login issues etc.
For those of us with an A77ii and Lightroom it’s important news
I just updated my lightroom to 5.5 and I’m now able to process Sony A7’s raw file. Here is an ISO 51200 image with 100% noise reduction lol. man the jpeg is still capable of holding a lot of details.
Has anyone been able to get anything out of DXO as to when they’re adding support? I emailed them but just got pointed to the website. I don’t know about other people, but the first thing I do is stick everything through dxo and export DNGs to Lightroom… Not that I’m complaining – anything’s better than Sony’s raw editor!
They don’t just support the camera but also its lens combinations, so they are slower than Adobe, but more accurate when you consider optical corrections. Prime noise reduction is also fantastic, and the reason I put all my RAWs through DxO before importing the dngs into LR. Having said that, they should be faster with Sony as they have less lenses to go through…
Um, I’ll get my coat.
