Re: OT: Canon JPG files changed by Photoshop?

2008-02-10 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
A simple thing to do would be to run EXIFTool on both the original  
image files and the ones that had been opened by Photoshop, see what  
had changed.

I am sure that Photoshop wouldn't change the actual JPEG data but  
some change to the metadata isn't hard to imagine.

 Sort of OT, but this puzzles me.

 My friend as a little Canon PS. She recently took a few pics that she
 wanted to print straight away. So she pulled the card out, opened a  
 few
 of the pics from the card (knowing she shouldn't do this, but she  
 was in
 a rush) in Photoshop, and printed them. Didn't save, and the Date/Time
 Modified of the files on the card are still the same as the Create  
 Date.
 But sticking the card back into the Canon, she gets an Unrecognized
 file format error on just the JPGs she opened.

 We copied the files back onto her laptop, and the JPGs are fine.  
 What's
 going on there?

I believe the file system change the last opened date in the file
allocation table each time a file is opened. Maybe the camera doesn't
like discrepancy between last opened and last saved, I dunno...

I don't know if it matters if this is Mac or PC, but I think just  
opening it Photoshop makes a thumnail icon or a Photoshop jpg icon  
that goes with the file rather than the generic jpg icon it had ...  
even without saving it, that might be enough for the camera not to  
like it.

Maybe someone else has a better technical explanation?

There are several variations on the Jpeg standard.  The camera probably 
only recognizes it's own output.  In fact the only difference is 
probably in the OS tags and just opening it may have modified some of 
the tags to something that the camera doesn't recognize so it doesn't 
even attempt to open the file.
