Canon 5D Mark III support in CS6 PLEASE!

I own Lightroom but prefer Bridge/Camera Raw for small projects. Would love to see an update to support Canon 5D Mark III in Camera Raw! Thank You.

Confusing? You bet!
Just a bit worrisome, too... One would expect a suite of products should be managed and coordinated as a cohesive unit - no matter how big the company, no matter what the history. But what motivates an organization to release one part early, before related software is ready? Then we see updates of that early release come out as beta versions (RCs) several times, so maybe it wasn't really ready... A Marketing experiment?
Whatever happened to just continuing to work on software until it is ready, with commercial quality? Set the engineers to optimizing the parts of it that are already feature-complete. They love doing that! Too much pressure from management to get early sales? Why? Is Adobe afraid of losing market share (to ???) so that they now push to release beta quality software early and in a disjointed way?
I have to say, some parts of Adobe's recent strategy - the public beta of Photoshop CS6, for example - seem very good indeed. Folks are happy to test software clearly marked as "beta" and which doesn't cost them, and you get the added benefit of them really wanting the release when it comes out. We can only hope the released Photoshop product is solid and bug-free as a result of sending the beta out to everyone.
Contrast that to releasing LR apparently too early, taking peoples' money, and having them essentially be paying beta testers. The best Adobe can hope for is that people feel they got their money's worth. The worst? The appearance of lack of quality and lack of coordination.
I don't mean to step on any toes here (and I apologize if I have)... I'm just providing one person's honest assessment of what things look like.

Why no Canon 5D Mark III support in CS6/ACR7?

Is this Canon's or Adobe's fault? Either way it is a pain in the arse! As much as I like Lr, I hate going to Lr 4.1RC for small jobs!

I guess some of us (meaning me) have assumed that the full release of CS6 will have at least the same new camera model coverage as ACR6.7.

I've already installed the full released version. No Mk III support.
I went back and re-read all of the notes concerning Camera Raw in CS6 and found none that stated it would be updated from the beta version prior to release. Like you, and many others from what I've read, I expected that CS6 as released would contain a Camera Raw at least equivalent to CR 6.7 with respect to supported cameras.
I guess that was just wishful thinking on my part. It does make it a pain for me, for most of my preliminary photo editing is done in LR and I currently have two options if I need to do futher edits in Photoshop--render to tiff when sending to CS6 or convert to DNG using LR4.1RC2 or DNG converter 6.7 prior to sending to Photoshop.
Either option is not satisfactory to me because my backup philosophy is based upon backing up just the changed sidecar files not the full image data and with tiff or dng sidecar files apparently don't exist. Here's crossing my fingers that I can do all of my editing in LR until CR 7.1 is released. Hope it is soon.
Of course I could have held off getting the 5D Mk III until Adobe supported it in CS6...nahhh I couldn't

Not able to open raw files from my CAnon 5D mark III in PS CS6!

I have camera raw 8.6 installed and am running photoshop cs 6.0. All of a suddened photoshop will not open raw pictures that were shot on a CAnon 5D mark III. Any ideas on what could be the problem. The pictures do open in light room.
Thanks
Bruce

What exactly happens when you try to open raw files from Canon 5D Mark III in PS CS6. Do you get any error message? An error screenshot would help.
Make sure your PS CS6 is up-to-date from Help > Updates.
Restart the machine and retry.

Problem with ACR 7 support of Canon 5D Mark III

Just purchased LR4 with ACR7 (upgrade from LR3.6 - not happy about that either, but I am mostly over it) and tried to import photos from my Canon 5D Mark III. Import feature sees all the .CR2 files but when I try to import them it complains that it does not recognize that file format. Not happy.

Unfortunately two important cameras, the Canon 5D.3 and the Nikon D800, came out during the transition between LR3/4 and PS-CS5/6 so Adobe released beta versions of LR and ACR to help tide people over, but what gets released when is kindof messy during the transition.
A major version release requires debugging and testing so the functionality, including new camera support, must be frozen earlier as compared to mid-version camera-support releases that have minimal coding changes. ACR7-beta functionality was frozen back in February so has even less camera support than ACR6.7 beta, which confused PS-CS6-beta users as well.
Just so you’re aware, there is a bug when doing extreme adjustments in the new toning model and geometric lens-corrections have been applied, so be careful with that in the new LR4.1 RC2. Eric Chan has said the bug will be fixed in the release version of LR 4.1. The same bugs exist in the final ACR 6.7 that came out within the last week, so it is unclear what the status of a bugfix is for PS-CS5 users.
Here is a forum post with more information. Also check out the other threads people refer to with other examples of the bug:

Mac Lion 10.7.3, LR 4.1, CS6, Canon 5D Mark III and all the plug ins upgraded! Need the RAW update!

My workflow has tripple because nothing wants to run smoothly! I am so bent because Adobe, Canon, Apple and every other plug-in software provider can't seam to get on the samer fricken page and I've spent BIG $ over the last 2 months trying to make everything run better... Where is the latest RAW?
I Purchased the Upgraded Adobe LR 4.1, CS6 Beta & got the Canon 5D Mark III, Mac Pro server update to Lion, WHEN is next dot release Camera Raw? My workflow has trippled in time because of this issue. I'm so frustrated with having to convert images in a slowed up piece of crap canon software package and then wait another decade for the newest LR to load the images I could crap fire! Come on Adobe, where's the release? After a few grand you'd think we'd get a better response time. As for Canon, they are not consistant with community software sharing and can kiss my *!! because to leave Adobe hanging sux!
There should be new laws that penalize jerks that screw with workflow!
Time is money, let's go Adobe!

Let's see:
5 Minutes of research would have told you about 5DMKIII support availabitliy but that is too much time to spend additionally researching a 15K purchase.
You paid 79.00 for the LR Upgrade and 14,000 plus for the rest of the package.
You bought a camera that was released after the 79.00 software.
You are using a Public Beta for the other software (no cost to you)
A Camera Raw release candidate with support is availabe. I(again no cost to you
Yet you say:
"Come on Adobe, where's the release? After a few grand you'd think we'd get a better response time. "
So far, you've paid 79.00
Finally: this is a user-to-user forum-not a direct conduit to Adobe.

Which operating system are you using?
Have you tried Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to get either camera raw 8.3 or 8.7.1, which should enable photoshop cs6 to open the canon 5D Mark III files.
(version of camera raw depends on your operating system)
If that doesn't work try one of the following camera raw plugin installers:
Camera raw 8.7.1 plugin
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
If you have windows xp or vista or mac os x snow leopard (10.6.8), then you'll have to use the camera raw 8.3 plugin installer:

Does camera raw 7.0 support Canon 5d mark iii? on the list it said 6.7 and 7.1 which makes confused because 7.0 is in between.

Which version of photoshop and operating system are you using?
If you have photoshop cs6 you should use Help>Updates to get the latest camera raw.
Camera raw 7.0 was just the shipping version of camera raw for photoshop cs6 and you should update it to a newer version.
The camera raw version on that list is just the oldest version of camera raw to support a particular camera and newer versions of camera raw carry on that support as well.

Any idea when Lightroom 4 will have support for the new Canon 5D Mark III?

I have a new Canon 5D Mark III. When can we expect support for this camera in Lightroom 4?

It's already in the DNG converter that's posted along with ACR 6.7 Beta. That indicates probably the next version.

Canon 5D Mark III profile not found in Lens correction filter in PhotoShop CS6

I'm unable to find a profile for my Canon 5D Mark III within the PS CS6 lens correction filter. In fact, Canon isn't even available as a camera make option within the Search Criteria box, nor are any canon lenses. When I click the Search Online button, the prompt reads "No online profiles found". Thankfully, I have no problem within Lightroom 4 (the Mark III and lenses are recognized)-- however, I'd really like to be able to use the new Adaptive Wide Angle Lens filter within CS6, which needs the camera's EXIF data to function correctly. I'm using a new iMac OS X.7
Thanks in advance for any help that you may have to offer.

So that makes me wonder if Lightroom keeps its own Lens Correction folder and if so,perhaps you can copy its Canon folder to Photoshop CS6's lens correction folder.
If you still cannot find it,you can create your own custom profile or download it if it's already been posted.
This article should direct you to the profiler and downloader software. You will need to install Adobe Air to use the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader.

LR3.6 support for Canon 5D, Mark III

Does LR 3.6 support the new Canon 5D Mark III camera? LR4 should. I don't care if the camera metadata is in LR or not. I just want to process the Mark III images in LR3.6. Can't upgrade to LR 4 because it is only 64 bit.

Jimmy,
LR3.6 does not support the 5DMkIII raw format. You can download and use Adobe DNG Converter 7.1 to convert your 5D MkIII raw files to DNG and then import the DNGs into LR3.6.

Having issues opening raw files from Canon 5D Mark iii in Photoshop CS5

I cannot open RAW files from a Canon 5D Mark III in Photoshop CS5. I get an error saying "
Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information."
Documentation seems to be no help.
Any ideas?

You can download the updates manually and try to install them Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh
If you can not get CS5 updated you may want to consider Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Camera Raw 7 does not recognize Canon 5D Mark III RAW files

Hello,
I have Adobe Creative Cloud installed and I use Adobe Photoshop CS6 with Camera Raw 7. Photoshop nur Bridge CS6 do not recognize the RAW files from the Canon 5D Mark III, though it says on the Adobe support site that the camera is supported since Camera Raw 6.7
When I try to open the .cr2-File I get the message "Photoshop cannot open the file".
I use Win7 (64 Bit).
Any help?
Thanks in advance,
Robert

Hi Robert,
Its a known issue as the PS CS 6 was launched with ACR 7 however the support in Photoshop CS 6 would come with ACR 7.1 update which will be live soon.
You are completely right in saying that Canon 5D Mark III was supported in ACR 6.7 but it was only intended for >PS CS 5 & 5.1.
In the meanwhile if you want you can download the RC version of ACR 7.1 from labs.adobe.com.
Thanks

The 5D Mark III was first supported by Camera Raw 6.7 and 7.1 which is only compatible with CS5 and CS6.
So the CS4 will never be able to open Raw 5D Mark III files.
Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?
Choices:
Purchase CS6 full version (CS4 is too old to qualify for an upgrade)
Join the Cloud
Free option: download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all 5D Mark III Raw files to DNG format then edit the DNGs in CS4
