Hi

Sorry, It may just be me being stupid, but I have loaded this on my IXUS 40, but now find that having taken some RAW images I can't read any of them. I have tried a few of the program in the FAQ, but none of them pick up the CRW file as a RAW image!

What am I doing wrong? Help!

Hello & welcome manwe !

You should convert the RAWs with DNG2PS-2 into the DNG format (it's lossless & most programs can work with DNGs).

Hi!

I have the same problem. None of the programs referenced in the CHDK wikia can read or recognize the CRW files from the IXUS 40 as RAW images.
I only managed to convert them into tiffs with dcraw. But I'd like them to convert to DNG.
Can anyone help, please?

Yes, that the problem I'm having. Have tried DNGForPowerShot, DNG4PS-2, UFRaw, Picasa, Photoline and the Canon file viewer and either get nothing recognised at all (eg not showing in the list in DNG4PS-2) or a 'file format not recognised' error on the file itself.

this dcraw version works, but i want output to be raw, so that i can load them into photoshop and develop them more comfortable than with dcraw.

i managed to create a camera profile with dng4ps-2 for the ixus 40. at least this allows me to convert the raw images to DNG and i can import them to photoshop.
i just copied the profile from the ixus 65 and tweaked the numbers by try and error until the DNG output looked like the JPG output (meant for the dimensions).

i attached a screenshot with the right numbers for my ixus 40.

dcraw works and creates a ppm file (?) which I can read, although the brightness/colour balance is completely off.

Cipher, how do you get that dialog box up in dng4ps-2? I can't find it!

Great, that works. The stable version didn't have those tabs under settings. Now I just need to work out why paintshop pro only shows the image as 256 x 192!
