Thats wat I ended up using, it has a nice batch PEF to DNG conversion, and 
lightroom 4.4 was happy :)

Thanks Dario ...

K3 PEF to DNG conversion.

2013-11-25 Thread Jan van Wijk
Hi all,

Picked up my K3 from the shop today, but had to use it almost right away 
without much time
to get everything perfect. Did most of the required settings, but blundered 
with the RAW.

It was set to PEF instead of my prefered DNG ...

So I ended up with about 40 PEF's that my LR 4.4 or CS 6 probably do not know 
about.

What are my options to convert to DNG?

Does the supplied software support that (the manual does not say anything about 
it AFAICT).

Other option could be to upgrade to LR 5.x, and use the PEF's as is, but I 
would rather stick with DNG.

TIA, JvW

did you try the latest version of Adobe's DNG converter (8.2)
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5646

I am not sure it will cope with K3's PEF format but worth a try?

Re: K3 PEF to DNG conversion.

2013-11-25 Thread Dario Bonazza

I can se two options:

1) Install Pentax Camera Utility 5.0 and see if it has such PEF-DNG 
conversion feature.
2) Wait for next Adobe DNG converter including K-3 PEF's as recognizable 
files and do the conversion.

se = see

In the mean time, you can do the in-camera PEF-to-JPG conversion and use the 
JPG files.

Of course, why did I not think of that!

The images are not that important, quality wise, some family-meeting shots, so 
JPG's are fine!

Thanks for the tip!

OK, will see. Guess I could install that anyway (normally use Lightroom).
I guess it comes as a MAC version too, not just Windows.

Will look into that tomorrow. Thanks!
