 Foveon Inc., a technology leader in high-quality digital capture products, announced today that Adobe Systems Incorporated will provide Foveon X3F raw file format support in the Photoshop CS Camera Raw plug-in. Foveon X3F files are the raw format files from digital cameras that incorporate the Foveon X3 direct image sensor. Foveon X3 direct image sensors are the only image sensors that directly capture color in three layers, just like color film. Adobe's Photoshop software is the core of virtually every digital image editing system used on personal computers today. Their decision to support our raw file format reflects the market's growing desire to use the complete color capture provided by Foveon X3 based digital cameras.

 Support of the Foveon X3F raw file format will enable users to browse, import, and edit X3F images directly from the Photoshop application. This integrated support simplifies the digital image workflow, benefiting the owners of Foveon X3-based digital cameras and other uses of X3F files. Digital cameras that output the X3F file format include: the Sigma SD9 DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex camera), the Sigma SD10 DSLR, and the newly announced Polaroid x530 point-and-shoot digital camera.
The Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is supported in Adobe PhotoShop CS. Support for X3F raw-format files is expected to be available from Adobe in the third quarter of 2004. |
