Description:

Reads and processes raw images from more than 140 digital cameras.

Raw images are the data directly read from the CCD of the camera,
without in-camera processing, without lossy JPEG compression, and in
36 or 48 bits color depth (TIFF has 24 bits). Problem of the raw
images is that they are in proprietary, camera-specific formats as
once, there seems not to be a standard format for high-color-depth
images, and second, the raw images contain headers with information
about camera settings.

This is a collection of command line tools to read and convert the raw
image files and also to get camera setting information out of them.










Please read the /usr/share/doc/dcraw-6.35/dcraw.html file (all
programs mentioned in this file are included with this package and the
dcraw-gimp2.0 packages) and the man page ("man dcraw").

Install also dcraw-gimp2.0 if you want to be able to load raw image
files directly into the GIMP 2.


This program does not download the files from the camera, it only
processes the already downloaded files. Depending on your camera
model, mount your camera as a USB mass-storage device, use GPhoto2
("gtkam", "digikam", "flphoto", "gphoto2"), or a flash card reader for
downloading the files.

On cameras which need the "DIAG RAW" hack, the manufacturer does not
support raw image capturing, neither by buttons/menues on the camera,
nor by the bundled Windows/Mac software. Please have a look at
http://e2500.narod.ru/raw_format_e.htm. Neither Mandrakesoft nor the
author of dcraw overtakes any responsability on your camera when using
the "DIAG RAW" hack. On Casio cameras (at least the old models) follow
the instructions on http://www.inweb.ch/foto/rawformat.html and read also
http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1015&message=4961779.
For the Minolta DiMAGE G400 and G500 see http://myfototest.narod.ru/.
On all other cameras take raw pictures following the manufacturer's
instructions, as they support raw shooting officially.
