Can't open Raw images on PS
I have the old CS version of Photoshop. It's not letting me open any RAW files. What can I do? EDIT: I have a Canon 50D May 27 09 01:59 pm Link How old? you can get the cameraraw updater from adobe.com May 27 09 01:59 pm Link update from adobe.com ...that's odd May 27 09 02:00 pm Link some newer cameras are not supported on older versions of CS, until or unless Adobe decides to do so, which they may not. it may be time to update to CS4. May 27 09 02:03 pm Link if you are like me, I used to have CS 2. When I upgraded to a D90, I couldn't update Camera Raw for PS, and had to buy the $200 upgrade to CS 4. So you may have to do that.

Is there like a trial or something I can use until I get it...that would really suck! May 27 09 02:06 pm Link ML Ph0t0graphy wrote: You neglect to state what camera. If Canon you can use DPP. May 27 09 02:07 pm Link I just got CS4 and there were already 268 mb of updates including raw. Try updates. May 27 09 02:08 pm Link you should be able to use the Adobe DNG converter until you update to CS4 May 27 09 02:08 pm Link What camera are you shooting? Canons come with a disk that will read their raws. May 27 09 02:08 pm Link ohhh yea sorry. It's a Canon 50D and it does come with the DPP (which I hate lol). But I haven't messed with it, haven't seen that I can edit with it... May 27 09 02:11 pm Link If you have a newer camera, forget about updates, Adobe stops updating software to kind of force you into buying the newer software. if its an older camera, you can probably update. you can use the software that came with your camera and convert that way but it is a long and tedious process.

If you are using a canon camera they come with with a software disc that will allow you to convert your RAW files to something Photoshop can work with. Another option is to download the Adobe DNG converter. This will convert your RAW files into something that any version of ACR(Adobe RAW converter can work with.
