RAW K-3 Mac?

Hi, I've just bought a K-3 and would like to use PEF Raw but I can't find an update for the Mac, does anyone know where it can be found? if it's available.

I don't think there is one available yet, I am waiting for it too. I believe it usually takes around 6 weeks for updates to appear for new models, so I would expect there to be one very soon. I sent a request in via the Aperture support system too, for what it may be worth.

Thanks I guess we will just have to wait

I've set my K3 up to use one card for RAW and the other for JPEG, so I can shoot JPEGS now but still have the RAWs on another card for more complex tweaking if there turns out to be anything that would benefit from it once the update is released.

Good idea didn't think of that, just waiting for an eye-fi card to be delivered I guess I can use that one for jpgs

Just noticed a RAW update has been released today, but the K3 wasn't included, just five additions (Nikon 5300, DF, Oly M1 and Sony Alpha 7/7R. So looks like we'll need to wait a little longer

I have found a quick workaround for this using Adobe DNG Converter, which only adds one more step to your workflow:

Shoot in DNG RAW, then after mounting your SD card on the Mac, copy the files to convienient location. Then run run the DNG converter (simple one window app with source and destination folder selection)




Then import the DNGs into Aperture as normal and you will them have all the usual RAW tuning sliders available. Its not quite as slick as going straight from the card to Aperture but it will do for now

The converter is available here.
