Hi all,
recently I acquired a Sigma DP1x (a better camera than I expected, but that is another story). Lightroom handles its Raw files not very good, bright highlight colors look clipped very often. Sigma Photo Pro produces much better photos, also the straight JPEGs are fine.
As I still want to use Lightroom for its catalog and printing capabilities, I want to shoot Raw+JPEG and let Lightroom show only the JPEGs. But this does not seem to be possible. Importing is fine, I get two files on the disk and Lightroom shows them as Raw+JPEG. But all previews are generated from the Raw file and no viewing, editing, or printing of the JPEG file is possible.
Am I missing something or is there no way to use JPEGs from Raw+JPEG pairs in Lightroom?
Thanks for any hints,
Thomas
