[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 629309, member: 13090"] I'd be happy to but I'm not terribly conversant with Apple OS's and software. I would *think* that just about any application you would use to view your photos on, say your iPad, can probably (probably!) open your raw files. This is different than [I]importing[/I] raw files however because an Import function is (I'm assuming) looking for a digital image extension (e.g. .JPG, .GIF etc.) So, I'd suggest you simply transfer a raw file onto your iDevice, try opening that raw file with whatever software you would use to review and/or edit your JPG's and see where that gets you; no need to over complicate things, right? If you can open the raw file with your current software you will, most likely, be able to *save* the raw file as a JPG. I'm thinking that would solve your problem. All THAT being said, know that raw files do NOT look as good as .JPG's and need to processed in order to be the best they can be. If you intend to process your raw files then the software you already have on your iDevice may, or may not, be up to the task of doing that. That's really a whole 'nuther set of issues, though. I'm sorry I can't be more Apple specific but hopefully I've given you a starting point. I'm thinking [MENTION=26505]Dawg Pics[/MENTION] and maybe [USER=13196]@hark[/USER] is/are Apple-People... Maybe one of them can offer some insight or know who else on the forums use Apple devices. [/QUOTE]
