Raw photos: Can I work in editor on raw photos.

Elements includes Adobe Camera Raw, the same raw editor as Photoshop CS5. As new cameras are supported, you can keep upgrading the camera raw plug-in at Adobe.com

RE: Photoshop.... If you're on the local network, yes you can browse to the file, open it in Photoshop, edit it and save directly to the MyCloud. (it doesn't actually write to the image file while you're working on it in Photoshop until you choose "SAVE") If you're not on the local network, transfer the file to your local disc drive from the MyCloud, edit the photo, save it and then upload it back to the MyCloud device. Editing video is a bit different sine it streams the video during preview. Network speeds play a HUGE part in how well this device works for streaming video/audio.

Since I don't have Windows 8, you might want to check with their site for that info. But, it does not have a RAW converter, when I visited there last. The program takes the standard files from images. You can always find even free software to adjust and convert RAW files to use in this program to even better define your art.

You need to use the provided software. We transferred our images from Photoshop (where we did our editing) to their software. We found the editing software difficult.

Yes. RAW is one of the options to save images- although, it does consume a lot more space on the SD card.

Last time I used it, I don't think you can. I do all my editing later anyway, with PS Elements, or other program. Ahhh... I may have spoken too soon ... lol As I indicated - I haven't used it in a few weeks now.:-)

What does raw do that a jpeg doesn't do. Does it just make it easier to manipulate the photo in photoshop?

I have to disagree with whomever said you could not crop your pictures on the camera. Yes, you can. It is addressed in the Reference Section of the on-line manual. It actually keeps the original and makes a copy.

This camera does have in-camera editing capabilities, such as cropping, re-sizing, and red-eye correction.

Apple's Aperture has no problem processing the RAW file for this camera. I was also able so use Photoshop Elements but if I had to pick between the two I'd go with Aperture. If you have a PC then go with Elements you can get it cheap on Amazon.

I have never tried Photos but I have noticed that if I tried to edit a AVI/MP4 or MP3 file I cannot. I have to take the file from My Cloud and transfer it or copy it to my PC's Hard Drive and then I can edit it.

yes you can . still usually faster on the product that took the photo, but it does work.

Basic photo editing will probably not be a problem depending on the amount of RAM available for the onboard GPU to share and the size of the image in question. Otherwise, a CUDA capable graphics card will accelerate certain Photoshop functions.

Anyone can use this program, there is just a lot that this program does that other programs don't do. I use several programs for different editing. Patience is what is needed to learn the different features. Keep working with it and you will love it.

Lightroom compliments the digital camera and gives you the capabilities of a well equipped wet darkroom. For example: * The camera is set for daylight, Lightroom adjusts the image temperature like using "indoor" film for fluorescent lights or studio lights. * You shoot creating "raw" and "jpg" images, jpg goes right to facebook, raw (which has more information) is used to create that frame-able, award winning print. * You adjust a raw print, Lightroom saves the changes (not the whole image) and the original image. This saves a lot of computer space if you have a dozen variations of the same image. * In the old dark room, you used light (time and intensity) to burn and dodge a print to bring out details in the shadows and washed out feaures. In LR you use your mouse or finger (touch screen). Ditto for tones like sepia and solarization. LR can do pixilation. Try that with an enlarger. * Like the old negative file system. LR stores your `raw' or jpg images in a system of your choice. You can create cross reference list such as "beach photos" or "cute D. coriacea faces" to find your beach or sea turtle pictures without making copies in different directories. It's like use file cards but without the hassle. Changes are not made to the originals (like you can't change a negative) * Of course you can crop, adjust contrast, color, tone, vignette, control convergence, combination print, make contact(proof) sheets, and most of the wet darkroom techniques. Of course with the full-blown Photoshop you can do all this, but LR is for the photographer and is easier on the wallet. I recommend that you take a LR class from a professional photographer. It will be worth every penny.

Save your money! I bought PE7 and haven't had any luck uploading RAW images from my Canon 50D. I am livid right now because of Amazon's misleading $20 rebate offer, Adobe's inconsistant customer service and Popular Photography magazine editor Debbie Grossman that wrote "A step-by-step guide to editing RAW in Elements" in the recent April 2009 issue. I downloaded ACR 5.3 from Adobe's website but still can't get my RAW uploaded in PE7. Adobe's customer service rep said Elements doesn't upload RAW images, you must 1st convert them to a JPEG or TIFF. If you want to work with RAW you purchase Lightroom 2 or CS4. What a bozo.

It does capture RAW with no difficulty. And most editing tools, from Lightroom on down to programs like Irfanview, easily manage that format.
