Working with Raw Images
Cumulus supports raw image formats of a wide array of digital cameras. You can find and organize raw image formats efficiently. Cumulus can extract metadata of raw image formats and store it in Cumulus catalogs. Additionally, EXIF information (camera settings, date, aperture and shutter speed etc.), and depending on the camera model, annotations and GPS are also captured when cataloging. Even Canon thumbnail files (THM) are supported. Converting assets stored in raw image format to JPEG and TIFF images on-the-fly is a breeze with Cumulus.
The Digital Camera Raw Filter enables Cumulus to capture information when cataloging raw image formats and to preview raw image formats. The captured information will be stored in Cumulus record fields.
The Digital Camera Raw Filter can capture metadata from the different raw image formats defined by leading camera manufacturers, namely, Canon, Fuji, Kodak, Minolta, Nikon, Olympus, Sigma, Sinar and Sony. Check Canto’s website for a detailed list of which cameras are supported.
Most cameras supporting Canon CRW files create additional thumbnail files (THM files). The Canon Raw Metadata Support enables Cumulus to capture metadata from these files and to manage these files. For more information, see “Canon DC Raw Image & Thumbnail File” .
