Camera Raw & DNG: Sony RX100 raw + low resolution JPEG shots are misidentifed as being cropped

We'll fix this, thanks.

This may not just be Sony. I've just had a report of Canon 5dMk2 doing the same.

This should not affect 5D II images. The default user crop mechanism was only introduced recently and only affects cameras newly supported in ACR 7.2 / LR 4.2, not models like the 5D II which were originally supported in 2008.

Perhaps you meant 5D III?

Also, the issue should be fixed for the Sony case in the final version of ACR 7.2 / LR 4.2.

I can confirm the RX100 is working fine in LR 4.2 (aside from other bugs I filed ;-)

Hmmmmm, I'm waiting to get hold of some files but here's the applicable thread: http://www.lightroomforums.net/showth... Perhaps it's a different issue.

I think the user wrote that he/she is using a 5D III, and in that case, yes, Lr/ACR is respecting the in-camera crop (aspect ratio) setting but does not have a built-in way to recover the full recorded raw image. That ability was newly added in ACR 7.2/LR 4.2 for newly-supported models only (e.g., Sony RX100, among others), whereas the 5D III support was added in earlier versions of ACR/LR. As you correctly noted in that thread, that's where DNG Recover Edges can help.

Eric, yes that does make sense.....except for the fact that the JPEGs are NOT pre-cropped. Here's an extract from the 5DIII user guide in relation to the C.Fn3 menu item "Add Cropping Information":



The intention then seems to be to allow DPP to recognise the "cropping information" and do the cropping, but it is not done in camera. So the net affect is that Lightroom is recognising that cropping information with respect to the RAW file, and cropping accordingly, but isn't doing it for the associated JPEG. Hence my original point that the RAW and JPEG appear differently....one cropped, the other not.

Yes, I'm afraid so. See this screenshot, hope you can make out the relevant details.

I'll try to do some further testing, maybe there's a setting combination which triggers this....

Hey guys,
I have found that someone was having the same problem as me after finding this link:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/10953...

Basically I stupidly set my Canon 5D MK3 to 'add cropping information' to the display to highlight an 8x10 so I could use this as a guide as we had to shoot in this aspect ratio for a class assignment. When I try to import into Lightroom (and Photoshop for that matter) both applications do not recognise the original image as a whole and crop to an 8x10, hence I lose some of the information at the top/bottom of the image (even though I can see this in the RAW .CR2 file itself). I have added the plug called 'DNG Recover Edges' into Lightroom but this only works on a DNG (obviously) and even when I convert the .CR2 file into DNG I lose this information :-( I am desperate to get this back as I recently went to Brazil and some of photos have been cropped which means I sometimes lose the tops of peoples heads even though I can see the whole image cleary as a RAW .CR2 file.

Does Lightroom 5 or Photoshop CC fix this? (I am using Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5 at the moment...

PLEASE HELP!
