Hi guys,

When I download pictures taken with the Inspire 1 to my Mac (Aperture or iPhoto) I get the message "Unsupported image format". Instead, I have no problems with JPEGs and videos. Any advice on this issue??

TY!

From this forum it seems that it's not possible to import DNG to a Mac unless using Photoshop. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll keep looking for a solution.

I have a similar problem in that I can't record RAW photos (which is dng) I can only record jpg's.  I have a support request and have been told the camera is faulty but that's it.  I have been waiting for a week for someone from DJI to contact me back without success.

Lichtroom does the job for you.

I Allas copy the files to my Apple and postprocess them in LR or Photoshop.

DNG will be the nr. 1 RAW format in a coupe of years, so they say!

Thank you blowerk, I can confirm that Photoshop Elements did the trick.

It was no camera issue in my case. Gary I suggest you try the same.

DNG is a professional image format, and generally requires a professional image editing application.  There are several of these written for a Mac.  Photoshop is, of course, the industry standard. Photoshop elements is almost a completely different application from a workflow perspective, but is usually almost good enough, depending on your goals.

An open sourced (free, but a bit more clunky) alternative is GIMP, should you be interested and motivated.

What i don't get is that Preview will open DNG Cleaned DNG's once through the DJI DNG Cleaner... ones from before "clean" can't be opened.
