PM crops image on saving as jpeg or tiff
« on: November 26, 2010, 05:20:42 AM »
Hi,
I'm using PM in the newest version on MacOSX.
I just regognized, that PM is cropping my images, when I save them as jpeg or tiff, although I don't apply any scaling or crop to the original rawfile (Canon cr2).
So I get an image with 2496x1664 instead of 4368x2496 px - why that?

Because the preview contained in your CR2 RAW file is only about half resolution.  Use a RAW converter program, or enable RAW rendering in Photo Mechanic.  Please note that using the RAW renderer will likely produce results differing from the preview since it uses Apple's ImageIO library for the rendering.
