Hi all,
I shoot with an a900 and would like to stitch the ARW RAW files it produces.
Unfortunately the results are pretty awful. No matter how I import the shots (through bridge, LR or PS4 itself) or the type of RAW (DNG or ARW, even TIFFs) the wizard will align but not stitch the photos together. Plenty of examples can be found in this flickr set:

Selecting layers -> merge layers also has no effect – it simply flattens the layers without merging them.
However, I have no problems whatsoever if I first convert to JPG and then stitch. Here’s an example of that:

Converting to JPGs isn’t a satisfactory solution because I lose so much headroom in PP after the stitch.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can make PS4 produce good stitches when using RAWs?
All ideas much appreciated.
