Feb 23, 2014I have a new Geotagger Pro 2 GPS (Solmeta) and tried it out yesterday. The GPS coordinants are not in the metadata. I do get the elevation and the direction the photo was taken. I tried Updating & Read Metadata in the menu but I still do not get the info. When viewed the photos in the camera, they had the GPS data.

Jul 17, 2013Just installed LR5. After importing RAWs from my 6D with attached GPS data I have to realize that they are missing in LR. The import is straigth and standard without any exclusions. Geo setter and other viewers prove that GPS data are transferred with the pictures but in LR EXIFS are quite "naked". No private zone ist marked in the chart module which might play a role in export functions only..OS is Win7 64, all up to date.

View 1 Replies View RelatedLightroom :: Importing Data From LR2 To LR4
Oct 18, 2013I have just upgraded my computer with a faster processor and larger hard drive, as I've recently bought a camera that takes much bigger photos (5D Mk3). This has required me to also upgrade software from Lightroom 2 to Lightroom 4.
When I first opened LR 4, none of my photos (or at least the metadata) from previous hard drive appeared. On looking through the hard drive I have found both the photos (which have transferred across successfully) and what appeared to be the old LR 2 metadata (file name "Lightroom 2.lrcat"). I clicked on the lrcat file and a pop-up advised me to select "Upgrade catalog to LR4" which I did. The process appeared to have worked because it opened LR4 and showed the folder structure and images. Not all of the info is however there on LR 4 screen; in the Library of LR4 each of the folders has a "?" over it, and when I move the mouse cursor over the displayed image in the viewing pane, a message says "The file named "XXXX" is offline or missing". So it seems that LR 4 does not know where the photos are.
how I re-link the metadata with the photos? Is it simply a case of clicking "Library" tab (top of Library window) and then "Find missing photos", or is there a better way of doing this? I have 14000 photos in dozens of folders to re-link up with the meta data.

Lightroom :: Data Is Lost When Converting To DNG
Apr 5, 2014I was recently reading on a Nikon Forum where a writer stated that some data is lost when converting to DNG in Lightroom.
Every compression algorith is flawed if a single bit is lost and the original can not be recreated. Since the DNG converter must know about your camera model and it actually converts the NEF into an image before compressing the image, AND you can not, after converting to DNG convert back to original NEF, it is to me obvious that it is indeed a lossy compression, not just 'simple' data compression like zip, tar or whatever other type of data compression you want to compare with, which is truly lossless.
The Nikon lossless compression works entirely on data compression principle, preserving every bit and recreating every bit of data when you edit the raw image, and that can not be done once the image is converted to DNG. That is why many people, who use DNG, also preserve the original NEF, which in my opinion, is a totally pointless work flow. The only reason I can see to use DNG is the ability to share the image with somebody else who is not able to edit NEF, but I might as well use TIFF in that case.
The DNG converter must have knowledge of the camera model concerned, and be able to process the source raw image file, including key metadata to be able to convert and compress. A real lossless compression algorithm NEVER looks at the contents of the data because it is totally irrelevant for the converter to know what type of data you convert and try to compress, since it is based on mathematical patterns and statistics only.
I look at DNG like I look at PDF. A Word document, especially with photographs in it, can be converted to PDF and it may look like you have not lost anything, but yes, you have lost a lot actually and you can never ever recreate the original Word document with the same quality like you have had in your original.
Lightroom :: 5 - Convert Canon GPS Data To GPX?
Feb 23, 2014I have a Canon 6D with built-in GPS. Importing the photos into Lightroom brings in the GPS data automatically, but it doesn't bring in the GPS "log." The "log" is the actual path you've walked (or hiked or biked or driven) while the GPS receiver is on. In Aperture (or Canon software or some others), you can directly import the ".log" file into the program. Seeing your path in a new city (or whatever) is fun. Lightroom appears to only accept .gpx files.
I've found a simple piece of software that converts .log files to .gpx. (It's called HoudahGPS.) But is there an easier or better way to do this? I'm not looking to add steps to my workflow!!
Lightroom :: 3.5 - Write GPS Data Into New File Name
Nov 30, 2011During import of files into LR and you can rename them and write the gps data into the new file name. Is there any real use for this feature? Writing the coordinates into the file name creates just a long name and what else...?
A review of Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT3 says, that their gps programm gives not only the data, where the picture was taken, but the sights in the area as well. Is this program available outside the Panasonic environment, too? (I'm using Nikon).

View 3 Replies View RelatedLightroom :: Copy Map Data To Metadata?
Jul 15, 2012I have just completed the import of a large number of images into LR 4.1. The images all have GPS data and it was processed correctly. For many of the images, LR also correctly processed the 'sublocation' fields in the map module.
For example, LR completed the city, etc. as Oban, Scotland, United Kingdom. However, none of this information appears in the metadata - either within LR or reading the ITPC data after export as a jpg file. Only the GPS coordinates are retained.
If I am understanding the process and reading the data correctly, how would one use the location data that LR provides?
Is there a way to copy 'sublocation' to fields in the ITPC for the image? Could it be copied to the caption field?
If there is no way to record the location data, why would Adobe add it to LR?
Lightroom :: 5.2 And Canon 6D Gps Elevation Data?
Sep 27, 2013We sailed a ferry in North-West (US to Canada) and the GPS should better show the same elevation than: Its the waterline + elevation of the passenger deck.
Instead, LR displays a different elevation with every image, ranging from +9 feet to... -300 feet, and trust me, we did not turned into a submarine
Lightroom :: How To Add Camera Mfg Data To EXIF
Aug 16, 2013I have a Panasonic GH3 camera. I would like to add an item that is in the EXIF data of the RAW and DNG file to the EXIF fields kept by LR5. I can see all the camera EXIF data by using the GREAT 'exiftool.exe' created by Phil Harvey.
[URL] ......
Just to start, I would like to add the item "Focus Mode" that is in the "Panasonic" section of the EXIF file of the RAW and DNG files. The Focus Mode field has values such as:
Example 1:
---- Panasonic ----
Image Quality : Raw
Firmware Version : 0.1.2.0
White Balance : Auto
Focus Mode : Manual
AF Area Mode : 1-area
Image Stabilization : Off
Macro Mode : Off
Shooting Mode : Aperture Priority
or, as anoher example:
Example 2:
---- Panasonic ----
Image Quality : Raw
Firmware Version : 0.1.2.0
White Balance : Auto
Focus Mode : AF-S
AF Area Mode : 1-area
Image Stabilization : Off
Macro Mode : Off
Shooting Mode : Aperture Priority
I find this data in both the Panasonic Raw files, and the DNG files created by LR5 (and I was very relieved to find that the Focus Mode is carried forward to the DNG files, since I don't keep my old Panasonic RW2 Raw files after they are converted to DNG!).
So, since this camera manufacturer data *is* in the DNG, LR5 *is* reading it.
Thus my question: How can I tell LR5 to inclued the "FOCUS MODE" value in the EXIF data it creates with each photo?

Sep 10, 2012I use different plugins to enhance lightroom (4.1 at this time). Sometimes I am not happy with a plugin, and remove it. This plugin may however add data to the catalog, which may increase its size.
I think that when you remove a plugin, all the related data (if any) remain in the catalog. So my question is : is it possible to remove unwanted data from a catalog -- without of course changing anything to the regular LR data ?

Nov 1, 2011Discovered that my main drive's memory was extremely low. I use all external drives for storage & backups, so only programs & program files are on my 500GB C: drive. I've found this "Lightroom Data" folder is consuming 318GB of memory!! I found LR is currently references the catalog "2007 lightroom-2-2". I backup & optimize each time I finish another session.
I don't know what is important in this Lightroom Data folder and what can be dumped in here. I'm posting a screen shot.
Why are there more than one LRCAT file created?Do current LRCAT files contain all previous work done in lighroom so any older ones can be deleted without any loss of work done on older files or no?What is the safest way to not loose hours of previous LR post processing work for all current and previous projects and yet release all duplicate/unecessary storage/info in my "Lightroom Data" folder?Why is it still calling itself 2007 (the year I first bought LR) and not updating itself?

May 28, 2013My assistant and I work simultaneously from different laptops (and, therefore, different LR catalogs), and I'd like to be able to transfer the 'Develop' changes she makes to the RAW images in her catalog to the same RAW images in my master catalog.

I've successfully exported her metadata as .xmp files, but how do I open that data in LR on my computer so that it applies to the images in my catalog?
View 1 Replies View RelatedLightroom :: 4 Loses Data On External Drive
Feb 26, 2013I was working with a client on a move of folders from an internal drive (Mac OSX) to an external drive.He created a dummy folder, via LR, on the external drive so that he could drag and drop from the internal drive to the external.
The folder was created, but the hard drive itself now appears as a FOLDER, not as a drive, under /volumes.
He renamed the drive, from within LR, and all hell broke lose. The name changed in LR, but not on the desktop. We couldn't rename on the desktop as the two names conflicted I'm guessing. We ended up shutting everything down, full reboot and the drive would not unmount. We forced that, closed down and restrted everything. Still had the naming conflict. LR didn't see the folder, so we rnamed in LR and got everything aligned. Or so it seemed.
Dragging folders to the external drive appeared to work OK, but one folder was inadvertently dropped on the folder above the target folder. It was dragged and dropped to the correct location, but then showed 0 images. A check with finder revelaed that the files were in the new location on disk, but LR has lost them.
Today, having moved all files (via D&D) to the new drive, he is trying to reorganize folder, but every D&D on the drive results in the above behavior.

View 4 Replies View RelatedLightroom :: Export To Flickr Removes GPS Data?
Mar 6, 2012I've just uploaded a picture to my Flickr photostream from within Lightroom 4 release version (Win 7 64 bit). I geotagged the picture in Lightroom's new Maps module and the image shows GPS co-ordinates in the Metadata panel in the Library module.
The photo on flickr has no GPS data and does not appear on the map in Flickr. I've downloaded the original version of the picture from Flickr and opened in the GeoSetter tool, which confirms that no GPS data is embedded in the JPEG file.
In Lightroom 4's "Publish Services" section Flickr does not have the "Remove Location Info" setting ticked under metadata.
EDIT: I've just tried to export a picture using the normal export button in the Library module. In this dialog box "Remove Location Info" was ticked. I unticked it and exported and can confirm that GPS data is successfully stored in this image. It just doesn't seem to get to Flickr using the built-in publishing service for some reason.
