Yosemite is right around the corner, but Apple isn’t done improving Mavericks yet. The Cupertino company just yesterday announced a Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update for OS X Mavericks that offers system-wide RAW file compatibility for several of the newest cameras to hit shelves.

As of update 5.06, Sony’s RX100III, a5000, a6000, a7S and a77 II are compatible, as are Panasonic’s GH4, Olympus’ OM-D E-M10 and Stylus 1, and Nikon’s 1 V3 and Coolpix P340. Conspicuously absent are newer Samsung cameras like the NX30… but of course that’s not all that surprising given the rivalry between the two companies.
