Hi,

PhotoDirector does a good job with RAW from my GH2, but is obviously not supported for my new extra GF3 camera body. (http://www.cyberlink.com/prog/support/cs/product-faq-content.do?id=11660&prodId=211&prodVerId=943)

Can anybody please help:
1. Is RAW from GF3 supposed to work with the current PhotoDirector 3 beta?
2. Any workaround for the 2011-version? (mentioned in http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/19799.page#109888)
3. I have already imported a number of raw images, thought I had companion jpegs, and deleted the images from the source. Any easy rescue from within PhotoDirector? (displays ok from Windows Explorer with the Panasonic codex installed)
Suggestions for a temporary PhotoDirector replacement?

Thanks! -olav norrud

Hello Olav -

Good news! Your Panasonic GH2 & GF3 both use the same RAW format (.rw2).

The not-so-good news is that RAW files from the GF3 display correctly in PhD3 (Beta), but not in PhD2011. A comparison is attached.

As you'd know, RAW files from the GH2 display correctly in PhD2011... & PhD3 (Beta), as you'd expect.

I'll forward this information to CL R&D for further advice.

PM sent.

Ganesha,

Please refrain from posting irrelevant links, as has been requested by PM. It's very unhelpful & annoying to members who are seeking answers & solutions.
