Panasonic DC-G9M2 (aka G9 ii)

[jdbirdwell]

Please add support to read raw files created by the newly released Panasonic G9M2 (G9 ii). I have uploaded 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, and 1:1 RW2 (raw) image files in both L (full resolution sensor size) and XL (high-resolution mode).

Note that the camera always creates the raw file in a 4:3 aspect ratio regardless of the setting. If a normal (non-high resolution) mode is selected (L/M/S) the stored raw size is L (5776x4336), and if a high resolution mode is selected (there are two) the stored raw size is XL (11552x8672).

Thank you for contributing the samples!

See darktable-org/rawspeed#529

I'm also looking forward to G9M2 support

Also voting for this... Thank you DT developers for a superb editor and asset-manager!

Eagerly waiting for G9M2 support :)

Me too, thanks team.

For anyone waiting for support, per darktable-org/rawspeed#367 (comment), you can edit your darktablerc file, and add rw2 to the libraw_extensions= line. The LibRaw library has support for the g9ii, so it can be used as a fallback until Darktable's RawSpeed gets support.

I'm using the flatpak on Ubuntu. The file is as ~/var/app/org.darktable.Darktable/config/darktable/darktablerc, and the full line for me now is libraw_extensions=rw2. If you're not using the flatpak, but you are on a unix system, find . -name darktablerc 2>/dev/null from your home directory should find it for you (probably ~/.config/darktable/darktablerc).

I haven't tried it, yet, on a Linux system, but this didn't work for me on an Intel Mac w/ DT 4.6.1. Darktable opens the RW2 file, but displays a dark image with noise. I'm guessing libraw didn't correctly recognize the image is stored as 16 bit since the older Panasonic RW2 files are not and the same extension is used. The code will need to look at the EXIF data to differentiate between the two image types. I will try it later using Linux. Thanks Doug Birdwell

Intel Mac w/ DT 4.6.1

FWIW, the flatpak is 4.8.1. I'm not sure if you have the ability to upgrade, or if that will make a difference, but I thought I'd point it out just in case.

[jdbirdwell]

I can't use the latest version on the Mac because my Mac is too old. I tried the 4.8.0 and 4.8.1 snaps on Linux (Intel i5 on a MacBook running Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. Neither worked, but the results were different. Both displayed solid black images after I opened a RW2 file. Thanks, Doug Birdwell

Also eagerly awaiting G9M2 Raw file (rw2) support. None of the ideas above (Flatpak 4.8.1) worked...

[jdbirdwell]

The 4.8.1 (candidate) snap worked for me with Ubuntu LTS 24.04.1. to get it to work you need to add rw2 to the list of file extensions that are processed by libraw instead of dt. That is done in the config file for Darktable under your $HOME/snap/darktable directory, not the config file under your home directory.

I only found it under ~/.config/darktable
I set line 101
libraw_extensions=rw2

(libraw23 = Version: 0.21.2-1.3)

It now opens in darkroom, but is only black.
The lighttable preview no longer works, but is only black.

The folder manager (Dolphin in KDE) icon preview still works

As mentioned several times: you have to remove the failed imports from the database, delete their XMP sidecars from disk, and try again.

libraw23 = Version: 0.21.2-1.3

Also, it won't work w/ this one, you need to build w/ the latest LibRaw 202403 snapshot.

May I suggest heading over to https://discuss.pixls.us/t/dmc-g9m2-support/44230 for user support? Let's please leave GitHub for developers tracking actual issues.
