If anyone has tried the new firmware, please report back if it fixes the issue with the import incompatibility of the dng files from X5R.

It would also eliminate the extra step of converting the dng files, and also prevent the increase in file size (when using Cinelight). Anyway, the reason I want to know if the new Inspire 1 Raw firmware fixed the unrecognized file issue when importing, is that maybe it will eliminate the need for "translating" the original dng raw files, so the magenta issue doesn't happen when converting into PPro compatible dng files.

I did a test process over the CinemaDNG from the X5R and checked the 'Premiere CC compatibility' box, and it did import fine. I've read that this does not happen in After Effects or in Photoshop, only in PPro. 500 CPU utilization vs CinemaDNG at 95-100 Got about 6 space savings with lossless over the X5R raw import, which is pretty good. Somewhere in the translation into the PPro compatible dng in Cinelight, the RGB value gets messed up if the color is 100% white. I've tried all sorts color corrections, filters, opacity settings with the dng itself or color screens, color replacements, nothing gets rid of the overexposed magenta spots in the raw pictures. I'm using PPro CC '14 so I'm not sure that maybe it has been fixed in '15, but I've read that they are aware of this issue, and it has not been fixed yet. It only happens with sections of sky or bright spots in the raw dng files, where the RGB value is 255, 255, 255 it turns those spots into magenta/pink color. This creates a whole new issue though after import into PPro CC. The dng files that are then produced a almost twice as large as the original dji dng files (~16mb each as opposed to ~8mb original dng files). The only way I can get PPro CC to recognize the raw dng sequence from the X5R gimbal/camera is if I use dji Cinelight and choose the PPro compatibility option, but this unfortunately adds the requirement of using a Macbook in addition to a PC.
#Slimraw x5r trial
I've got the trial version of SlimRaw, I choose everything as described above, I choose no compression at all though, whether lossy or lossless. The issue I have is that PPro does not recognize the files produced by X5R at ALL, it's not just a dark picture issue. Has anyone yet tried the new X5R firmware from 4/27 to see if it fixes the import issue into PPro CC? I've read through this thread, and have a few questions about my X5R workflow very closely related to the issues discussed here

Good to see that there are already people hard at work with their sleeves up trying to solve the issues with the X5R workflow!
