    Markus,
    I went through the links in your posting. Read it all. With all respect I think I don't I get any idea of what you intend to say. Please do not be offended, but for reporting a 'critical bug' there is a serious lack of detail in your report.

    Since this is a user-to-user forum, I advice you to report bugs to Phase One in a support case as well.

    I'm with Paul on this. I don't see what the problem is.
    I loaded your RAW into C1, reduced the exposure by half a stop and applied 30 Highlight recovery. No blown highlights at all.
    However, what I did notice was a total lack of the 'jaggies' that I see at 50% on my Canon RAW files.
    Can you post a link to one of your RAW files that has more lines in it, preferably diagonals?
    Thanks,
    Iain

    Hi Markus,
    I downloaded your exposure16.mrw file (and exposure0.mrw), which is a 1.6 EV overexposed file as is stated. I opened it in CO4 (both Win and Mac) and ACR 4.3.1 and noticed the blown highlights. Next I converted it to DNG, as you stated, and opened it in ACR4.3, as I did in with the original mrw file and with the same result.

    For me it is clear that the highlights have fully clipped in the sensor of the camera already due to the overexposure. That does not come as an surprise. You also presented a nominal exposed file (exposure0.mrw). The blown out highlights are very well recovered by CO4 (and ACR as well) with the Auto setting (Ctrl-F on Win). Easy job.

    No bug whatsoever I can put my finger on, to the contrary! CO4 does a splendid job where with CO3.7.x I would have to take more steps. Thanks for sharing though. And a very happy new year to you.

    Did the same comparison, here, and had no problems. Excellent recovery
    and very usable results.

    How to reproduce this bug:

    1) open RAW file from http://www.linuxphoto.org/other/exposure16.mrw
    2) recover highlights in "fit" zoom mode (see the recovered details?)
    3) change the zoom into 100% - the recovered details are gone
    4) pan the image - there are details for a short while and then nothing

    In my opinion picture what you view in preview window CO 4.0 without any zoom is not 100 % identical to compare jpg output...

    Please compare view in aplication window and output jpg or tiff....

    I just did another test with a combination of exposure reduction and
    highlight recovery, which produced an image that looked pretty decent
    in the "fit" preview. I converted the file as an 8-bit tiff and viewed it in PS7. It
    didn't look anything like the corrected preview image. All the areas that were
    adjusted turned a light/medium gray.

    So, at least from the conversion I just viewed, it looks like there is definitely
    a problem.

    Hello all,

    Just to give an update, There is a support case for this that has been forwarded along to our official test department so that an error can be identified, clarified, and fixed.

    Based on my tests the problem seems to occur when images reach the limits of data in overexposure, however I believe it is clear in this situation that some information is getting clipped in the end result.

    Markus / Robert,

    With Markus' latest explanation I understand the issue better. I acknowledge that in the converted file output detail is missing that seems to exist in the preview (as long the preview is not zoomed in at 50% or more). Also when zooming in to 50% and beyond, detail gets lost which show up initially.

    In addition I can confirm that this behavior also occurs in the CO4 / Mac version likewise.

    Perhaps getting 3.7.8 out for the "pros" has taken priority over 4.0 for a while. 😊

    Yes. (just kidding!!!! 😊 )

    Support for cameras is determined based on demand. Now with the 4.0 platform we can support new cameras quicker, but priority will will always be based on popularity.

    you can make requests by creating a support case.

    I have just downloaded v4.01, and have exactly the same problem. As soon as I zoom an image to above 50%, the image looks way over-exposed. I have logged the issue.
    I use a Canon 40D

    The Phase One team have solved my problem. I have been using highlight tone priority, which version 4.0 did not process correctly. v4.01 has corrected this, but I had some old cache files in my photo folders that were causing the problem. Deleted them, and problem solved.
    Thanks to the support team.

    Create folder cache in all viewed folders by CO is stupid...

    On disk after it is many unnecessary folders....

    My propose is simple: aplication make one!!! cache folder on disk location definied by user..

    This folder must be purge via CO menu :automatic one at week or definied period or manually by user..

    It is simple and perfect....

    Hmmm, wasn't that the way it worked in v3? Now there's a thought! No-one's mentioned that before!?!
