Sony SLT-A77 RAW support

Alan Warren
Hi :) 

I've been using digiKam for ages for storing and working on RAW images taken with my old Sony DSLR-A350 without a hitch. I've just upgraded to the Sony SLT-A77 and it won't handle my RAW (.arw) images anymore. Is there an update coming for this camera; or, a plugin I need to...ummm...plug in? 

I'm a photographer, not a programmer and I've googled and read papers and pages galore but I can't find any pointers on what to do here.

Cheers,

--AL :)

Hi Alan,

I'm comes...

I have patch using last libraw to include in libkdcraw to support this camera (and many other)

I plan also to buy this camera for this end of year. I'm Sony user (A500 for the moment).

So, please be patient. II plan to patch libkdcraw from git/master before this week end. I need to review all code to be sure to not break something.

Note that libkdcraw with this patch will be release for KDE 4.8, not before, but if you want to use it now, you need to checkout code and compile all by hand using digiKam Software Compilation super repository :


I will post a message in my G+ wall when code will be ready to use.

Best

Did you just update the libraw source code tree in libkdcraw or was there more code that needed to be changed? Thinking about patching digikam 2.3.0 for Sony A77 support as I guess digikam 2.4.0 is some weeks away?

Re: Sony SLT-A77 RAW support

The lead changes are in libraw of course and libkdcraw also, due of some changes in libraw API. The libkdcraw  binary compatibilty still preserved, but i set some data and method deprecated for the future. libkdcraw API/ABI are also changed.

in digiKam, there is no changes, but in DNG converter from kipi plugins, yes...

Look my commits :
