Has anyone used ACR 2.2 to open DSLR/n or 14n raw files. I am using 2.1 and it works very well. Just wondering what they are fixing/improving.
Thanks

Ken,
I have downloaded the file and from what I can tell there is now supportfor the nx as well which is what I currently have after the upgrade. I haven't used it enough to tell the difference from the 14n camera raw support and to tell the truth I didn't open a file from the nx on v. 2.1 prior, so I'm at a loss to compare the two!
Thanks

Kodak isn't telling us 2.2 is an improvement. It only supports more cameras.
My main complaint about 2.1 and 2.2 is that it opens RAW files as sRGB, thus showing the wrong colors which now only can appear after assigning to sRGB in PS.

Can't you change the color space it opens in to on the lower left in ACR? I open mine into adobe rgb wth no issues.Kodak isn't telling us 2.2 is an improvement. It only supports more

Using 2.2 with CS.
I used 2.1 with the 14nx for a dew days, and now 2.2. No noticeable difference. The color may be a touch more accurate when camera default is selected though.

You can choose any of four different color spaces in the Camera Raw interface into which you can open the raw data from the camera sensor. These include sRGB, Adobe RGB, ColorMatch RGB and ProPhoto RGB.My main complaint about 2.1 and 2.2 is that it opens RAW files as
sRGB, thus showing the wrong colors which now only can appear after
assigning to sRGB in PS.

No Rob, it doesn't matter at all whatever I choose, it all comes out as sRGB. If I type Alt I M P to assign the profile, it always says sRGB.

Yeah, ofcourse you are right, slip of the mind. (Not Kodak but Adobe)
Obviously I can choose the profile, but it doesn't change a thing in my computer. What I mean also is that the picture in my RAW convertor looks like a profile mismatch: since ARC opens the genuine RAW file (which is an sRGB) the picture looks like an sRGB file in an AdobeRGB working space. In other words: if I import a NEF form my Nikon Capture AdobeRGB workingspace into PS CS, all looks good. If I open the same NEF in ARC 2.2, it looks mismatched and I have to assign the file to sRGB to get the exact same colors as the NEF that was imported. Also, my DCR files always look right only after assigning them to sRGB first, otherwise it is too red and off. Have I set a wrong setting somewhere in my computer?
Thanks,
Bart

RAW files are not sRGB. You get a color space once you convert the raw image into one.
It's also ACR, not ARC. Don't understand why that's so hard for so many people.

2.2 has official support meaning that the color profiling has been finalized for the camera. When 2.1 came out and the SLR/n was announced, there were comments about the final color profiles for the new sensor not being quite complete in 2.1.
Has anyone used ACR 2.2 to open DSLR/n or 14n raw files. I am
using 2.1 and it works very well. Just wondering what they are
fixing/improving.
