My cs4 won't open raw image from my Canon 5D II.  What is the solution?

My CS4 opens raw images from my 40D with no problem.  However, when I try to open raw images from my new 5D II, it says it is "not the right kind of document".  Why is this?  Aren't all RAW images the same?  What is the difference between the RAW image in my 40D, and my 5D II?  Is there a solution to this?

Please repost this in the Photoshop forum. This forum is for suite specific issues only.

  • Bridge won't open raw files from my canon mark iii

    Bridge won't open raw files from my canon mark iii?  Are you kidding adobe? This camera has been out for over six months. Why isn't it loaded into the program? This camera is sooo main stream!

    What Mark III?
    Are you referring to the Canon EOS 1D Mark III or the Canon EOS 5D Mark III?
    And what version of Adobe software are you referring to?
    There definitely is support for the EOS 1D Mark III in in versions of the Creative Suite dating back several versions. Support for the EOS 5D Mark III was made available in an update to Creative Suite 6 and Lightroom 4.x.

  • How do I get Photoshop elements 9 to open RAW images from my Canon g16?

    How do I get elemente 9 to open RAW images from Canon G 16?

    Hi,
    You will need either use the Canon software to convert the CR2 files to TIF files or use the free Adobe DNG converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG files. Then import the TIF or DNG files into PSE 9.
    You could update to PSE 12 to avoid the conversions.

  • Bridge CS4 won't open RAW files from Canon 70D

    I have Photoshop/Bridge CS4 which used to read CR2 Raw files fine from old Canon 30D@.  I've just purchased a Canon 70D.  Bridge CS4 will read the MOV video files fine, but not the Raw CR2.  I've downloaded and installed Adobe DNG Converter 8.5, but when I open it and it asks to open files to convert, the CR2 files are still unreadable and greyed out.  I'm on a Mac OSX 10.9.4.  Is there some way I could  preview RAW files from the 70D in Bridge CS4, and open in Camera Raw?

    You need to upgrade to PSE12. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software) You could also use the Canon software that came with your camera to convert to tiff, which would open in PSE11.
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Photoshop CS4 won't open Raw image

    Not sure what happened, but when I edit a raw image, and push open Photoshop opens but does
    not open the image. I just updated to 11.01, and updated camera raw to 5.6
    I reinstalled Photoshop, and the updates and the same thing happens.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Okay this could be a tough one.
    I don't use bridge in my normal work flow, I use ACDSee v3 for viewing my photos and graphic designs.
    I am a wildlife photographer and have over 300 gigs of photos dating back to 2007.
    I just installed a 2 terrabyte HD, and copied these files to this hard drive so that I have two hard drives with these files on them in case of a HD failure.
    I opened a file in Camera Raw, edited it, and choose open. Photoshop opened and the would not open the file, and more or less freezes with still some capabilities in the menu. It won't close if you try and exit, and I need to use task manager to close Photoshop.
    I then opened bridge, and purged the cache on that file, reopened the same Raw file CR2, edited it in ACR and then opened it in Photoshope and it opened.
    I opened and closed files in a lot of older files and it worked fine. Is there a way to purge all the files, or is this not a good thing to do?
    I take photos almost on a daily basis, so going through each folder would be a huge task.

  • Help! My CS3 won't open RAW files from my Canon EOS 7D..

    I have always used Photoshop CS3 - I like it and am quick with it, and I shoot RAW files on Canon EOS.
    I don't want to upgrade to CS5, however since upgrading my camera to a 7D, Photoshop will no longer
    open my RAW files. I've tried to update plug-ins, I've tried to work through DNG [it won't open those either]
    and I've tried for hours on end to get an answer from Adobe on the phone. Nothing is working. Does anyone
    have any advice for me please? I'm begining to tear my hair out!! Emma

    Hi,
    Are you saying your Ps CS3 won't even open the sample DNG file (/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Samples/Doors.dng)? If that's the case then you need to make sure you have the correct Camera Raw 4 plug-in installed properly.
    If it is just DNGs generated from your 7D files, then maybe the DNG Converter options need to be tweaked.
    regards

  • CS 5 Extended won't open Raw files from my Canon SL1

    My Raw plug-in version is 6.7.0.339. Is there a later version for me to download and install? Do I need to use Adobe DNG Converter? If so, which version?
    Forgive me if this question has been asked before. I did search the forums but didn't find an answer for CS5 Extended.
    Thanks!

    Your version of Photoshop will not open Canon Digital Rebel SL1 images directly. Support wasn't added until Photoshop CS6 in Camera Raw 7.4.
    Adobe stopped updating older versions of Camera Raw to be able to read raw files from newer cameras whenever they released a new major version of Photoshop.  Thus, the version you have is no longer receiving updates and will never directly be able to open your CR2 files.
    You can check this yourself:
    First you need to determine when Adobe released support for your new camera in Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages.  You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    Since your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera directly , you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
    Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
    The DNG converter DOES work, and you will be able to open the converted DNG files with your version of Photoshop, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

  • How do I open RAW images from my Canon G9 in Lightroom?

    I am starting to use my camera to take pictures of original artwork, for the purpose of making and selling reprints. I understand that I need to shoot the images in RAW so that I don't lose picture quality, but how do I know if the images that are importing into Lightroom from the SD card are even the RAW files?

    the G9 is a great camera (I have the much newer/advanced G12) however I don't feel its really up to the job you have in mind. Photographing art works is rather specialized if good quality is required not to mention a good understanding of LR and/or PS.
    I'm not saying you can't do it, only pointing out a couple of maybe unknowns

  • Photoshop CS4 won't open RAW files

    Photoshop CS4 will not open RAW (.CR2) files. I have tried what is listed on Adobe's website (checking versions, uninstalling, reinstalling). Nothing has worked. It still gives me the error message: "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
    I am using CS4 on a 10.6.6 Mac OS with a Canon Rebel XS. I currently have Camera Raw 5.7 installed.
    Does anyone have any answers ?

    The CAT.CR2 file that was posted is from a 1000D that does not have sRAW capabilities.  Comparing the ExifTool data and the camera specifications, there should have been a small-sized preview JPG image and a large-sized RAW image in the file, but the file was truncated after the top-left quadrant of RAW data was written:

  • Cannot open Raw images from 5d Mark II in CS3

    I'm back with more issues. I had this same problem opening raw images in CS3 from my 40d (I have Windows 7 64 bit). With your help I was able to fix that issue with a patch, but now I am having the same problem with opening raw images from my new 5d Mark II. Help again please!

    You need to familiarise yourself with this: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    You will see that, as a minimum, you need ACR 5.2, which needs Photoshop CS4 to work.
    If you don't want to upgrade, use the latest DNG converter which will make your images viewable and editable in CS3.
    It's here:  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4620

    Small correction to what SSprengel wrote...
    The RX100M3 is supported only by version 8.5.  It sounds like you need a newer version.

  • Photoshop won't open Raw images with my new Camera Canon 6D help! I use Photoshop CS5 extended version.

    Hello,
    I got a new camera and Photoshop and Lightroom won't open Raw images with my new Camera Canon 6D help! I use Photoshop CS5 extended version. and Lightroom 3

    Good news and bad news:
    The bad news is that you need CS6 or higher to open 6D RAWs. (The 6D didn't get support until Camera Raw 7.3; 7.0 premiered in CS6.) You can choose to upgrade (I'd recommend skipping CS6 and go straight for CC 2014 for $10/month) *OR*...
    ...the good news is that the DNG Converter can help you convert your RAWs into DNGs for use in CS5 and Lightroom 3.

  • How do I open raw files from my Canon 6D in Photoshop CS5.1?

    Just tried to open raw files from my Canon 6D in Photoshop CS5.1. An error message appeared: "
    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." Is there a simple solution?

    You cannot, nor will you ever be able to open your Canon raw files directly in CS5.1.  Your camera model requires at least ACR 7.3 which only works with CS6, or Lightroom 4.3.  There will be no further updates for CS 5.1 ever.
    Your choices are (1) to upgrade to CS6, or (2) to download the latest version of the Adobe DNG Converter, currently 7.4, and convert your Canon raw files to raw DNG files that you can then open in your CS5.1.
    You should also know that the rendering in ACR 7.4 is far superior tou the raw conversion in ACR 6.x, so you would be leaving a lot of image quality on the table if you go the (free) DNG Conversion route.
