I’ve got a new Panasonic 4 MB camcorder which takes nice stills. I was surprised that PS cs didn’t have an import for media card readers. I use a SD card. Does Adobe have any new plug-ins for PS that are free which will take care of this? Anyone have the link? If Adobe doesn’t, it is really hard to believe they forgot something so elementary. Thanks

My XD cards show up as a removable drive… so in PSCS I can just go to File Open and navigate to the card… nothing to do with Import or Plug-ins

You are better off pulling the images you want to your hard drive and then opening them. Adobe has stated that working from removable media or over a network is not supported.

That merely means that if you call up with problems and they think that it is the card they will have you try from the hard drive if that works Bye Bye.

That being said there is no good reason to work directly from the card other than your not sure how to move the pictures to the hard drive and even that is a bad excuse. Cards are slow and fill up to fast. Plus if you copy to the hard drive first you can leave a backup on the card for incase you screw up your image.

Too true

Besides the operating system may try to leave residues that the card does not really need, want or should have.

Port images to hard drive, save images in prime image folder (never work on these directly), copy image to it’s own work in progress folder seems IMHO a very good way to handle it

I fully support previous comments: do not work on images direct from memory card

That used to be one thing I would mention as a plus for the PC when doing the Mac V. PC talk. But now PCs are just as bad. 🙁

Note: I use both Macs and PCs so lets not turn this in to "that" thread.

Yeh ttue, too true

I wonder if these side effect will worsen under 64 bit operating systems?

I can imagine 24 character codings being attached to severy file, every image, every thing….

Time will tell I suppose 🙂

Programmers are getting lazy. Because it is just to easy to through a faster processor, more ram and a giant hard drives at programs. Who cares if your dat files are over a meg and your executables have tons of over head?

I don’t see any turning of that tide any time soon. but if it does I will bet you that it is Linux that leads the charge.
