Canon 350D/450D vs. Photoshop CS4/5

I wonder how to setup a Canon camera with USB to a laptop and get the
picture auto into photoshop/Bridge when the picture is taken.
Anyone who have done this?

A CC subscription lets you install some older versions of some of the apps like Photoshop. But Lightroom 5 is the earliest you can install with Creative Cloud. That means a CC subscription isn't going to help solve this problem. If you want to try using Lightroom 4.1 you will have to find a license somewhere; Adobe no longer sells them. But getting Lightroom 4 may not solve the problem on its own.
I own a 350D and Lightroom 4.1, so I tried it on my Macs running Mavericks. Tethering the 350D still doesn't work. Tethering a 7D works great, the camera is recognized immediately.
I think the problem is the one that ssprengel mentioned: Canon themselves stopped supporting the 350D in their tethering SDK and no longer updated it for newer versions of OS X. If you want to tether a 350D, I think your first step is to set up a boot disk with an older version of OS X and then install the tethering software on that. Some additional evidence backing this up: Other software won't tether a 350D either. For example, DSLR Remote Pro can only tether a 350D up to Mac OS X 10.5. Also, the current version of Canon EOS Utility cannot tether a 350D in Mavericks, so you can't even do it with Canon's own software. When you trace the problem all the way back, it looks like it isn't an Adobe or Apple problem, but ultimately a Canon problem.

  • Canon CR2 RAW and PhotoShop CS4

    Just got the RAW update for my Canon SX1 IS.
    Neither Bridge CS4 nor PhotoShop CS4 (both fully updated) recognise the format despite CR2 being listed in the Bridge file associations for PhotoShop CS4.
    In Bridge I just get a file icon.
    In PhotoShop I get a 'file type not recognised' type of message.
    Must I use Canon Digital Photo Profession to convert to TIF for processing in Adobe Camera Raw, or am I missing something?

    Thanks for the tip Ellir. I downloaded 5.4RC last night and it didn't have support (tested) and today official 5.4 gets released with the support. I feel lucky
    And to whiners, I'm just asking a question. I really feel that forums would have warmer welcoming and less elitism. But oh well.
    Anyways SX1 problem solved, tested and it works. Thank you Adobe.

  • Canon CR2 files in Photoshop CS4

    Hi Everyone,
    I need a bit of help.  I have a G5 Dual 2.7 Power PC.
    I also have photoshop CS4.  I cannot see Canon files from a Canon 5D Mark 2 camera
    in photoshop unless I convert them to DNGs.  I have an older computer, same type but its
    not water cooled and I can see CR2 files in photoshop there.  I had to kill photoshop on that
    computer to put it on this one.  Ive tried to find the update to correct this but I keep getting an
    alert saying I need some kind of  Manager first.  When I download that I get an alert saying the
    architecture doesnt support it.  So Im back to ground zero.  I can do the DNG conversions but
    Im just wondering why it works on an older computer but not this one.  Does anyone have an
    idea of what I am doing wrong?  Or does anyone have the link to the correction.
    thanks
    tony

    Yes, absolutely all of the quality and dynamic range is retained in the DNG, because it is still raw data.
    Outside of upgrading to Photoshop CS5, which can open your files directly with Camera Raw 6.4.1, your only choice is the extra step of converting the .CR2 files to .DNG with the free DNG converter.
    While you'll get all the quality your Camera Raw 5.x converter can deliver, you should keep in mind the Camera Raw 6.x converter has an entirely new, additional "2010 process" for converting raw images, which (depending on your settings) can actually deliver a higher quality conversion than the one you're getting with Photoshop CS4.  I think it's worth the cost of the Photoshop upgrade, personally.

  • Lightroom 3.6 to photoshop CS4

    I used to use Lightroom 2, a Canon 450D and Photoshop CS4.  i had no problem using Lightroom, Photo/Edit in Photoshop to open and work with my images in photoshop.  i then upgraded to Lightroom 3.6 and now use a Canon 60D camera and still use Photoshop CS4.  When i click Photo/Edit in Photoshop now, Phoshop CS4 opens but the image doesn't appear.  What can i do to rectify this?

    OK things have change here. I expect you are working with raw files from your camera.
    With LR 2 and PSCS4 the ACR version are in sync i.e. LR uses the equivalent of ACR 5.x and PSCS4 uses ACR 5.x.
    Now LR 3.6 has the equivalent of ACR 6.6 and PSCS4 is using ACR 5.x. Since the ACR versions are not in sync you should get a warning dialog indicating that the ACR version needs to be updated in PSCS4 but this is not possible. If you are not seeing a warning dialog you need to do the following in Lightroom 3.6 go to  Edit>Preferences>General Tab> click on "Reset all warning Dialogs". You should now see a warning dialog when you select Edit in PSCS4. You should choose "edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments". This will make Lightroom create a tiff file with your adjustments and send this to CS4. ACR in PSCS4 cannot process the LR 3.6 develop settings.

  • Aperture or Adobe photoshop CS4?

    Hi Mac lovers!
    i love photography!, I currently own a D200 Nikon DSLR, I am an amateur photographer--- so should I go with Adobe CS4 which i have used in the past or should i give a test run to this unknown software (unknown for me) Aperture, I know this is a vague question but what i am trying here it is to decide whether I should go for something that is well known to all photographers (adobe CS) or what else _can you enlighten me_ about Aperture and considering it instead of paying $800 for Adobe?
    thanks!

    There is no substitute for Photoshop. Aperture is limited at pixel level editing. If I were you I would stay with iPhoto because it has decent editing tools and requires much less learning than Aperture, and buy PS4 for those edits in which you need to have some more capability.
    Aperture excels in volume edits, culling, picking the best from a bunch of similar shots, producing multiple variations (b/w, sepia, crops) etc from the same image.... but it is very deep and not particularly forgiving. If you 'live' in it you will be fine, but other than that, stick with iPhoto. Photoshop on the other hand will still work with iPhoto being used as iPhoto's image editor. If you move away from iPhoto, start planning on where you will put your little camera videos as Aperture does not integrate video files into its database, that's for a general tool like iPhoto.
    That said, I use Aperture for stills, have 80,000 images, and we use it at our studio. I use iMovie for holding the video clips from HD cam and from Pocket Canon. I use Photoshop CS4 all the time or doing real imaging work. It was hard to give up iPhoto but I use Aperture for the above mentioned functions so much that Aperture became the obvious choice. Aperture also supports some nice backup features such as it's ability to remember a hard drive (backup drive) that is disconnected, or held off premises, and then reconnects and updates when again connected to the computer. I believe this is something that is addressed at those who require secure backups (to insure their living!) and the importance of keeping off premises backups. Esoteric to some but having had floods, breakin's etc, it's nice to keep a copy of crucial images off site.

  • I had lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS4 I downloaded cc and trialled it and then uninstalled since then I cannot read/open my Canon cr2 files and

    I trialled cc Photoshop.
    I had Photoshop CS4
    and lightroom 4.4.
    I used LR4 and cc as well as CS4 during that time
    BUT
    when I uninstalled cc
    after initial work in LR4
    I try to open it in PS4
    it no longer recognise my Cr2 (Canon Mark 111 tif files)
    (which it had no problem with previously.
    When I try to go from LR$ to PSCS4
    it now tell me
    this version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 7.4 for full compatibility.
    Please update the Camera Raw plug in using the update tool in the Photoshop help menu.
    Ihave downloaded this off the net but it does not seem to solve the issue
    HELP!!!

    G'day Curt,
    I smacked myself on the forehead when I read your reply. How could I have forgotten to do that? However, after trying that, the problem persists and more files are corrupting. I now have around ten files of around 200 in a party folder I have that have corrupted. They all were perfect several days ago.
    I'm starting to get worried as I work for the local rag and have social pics this weekend to process. I can't afford to let this happen to them.
    Thanks for the suggestion....

  • Canon CR2 Raw files won't open in Photoshop CS4

    I'm using a Canon EOS 600D (aka EOS Kiss X5), Photoshop CS4 (ver 11.0.1) with Camera Raw 5.7.0.213.

    Adobe Camera Raw 5.7 is the latest for Photoshop CS4 Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows
    The problem is that your new camera is supported by ACR 8.7 and only Photoshop CS6 and up supports this version.
    So if you do not want to buy CS6 or subscribe to the $10/month Photography Program, you have to convert the CR2 files to DNG to work on them. Your original CR2s are untouched in the process, you just can't directly edit them in CS4, only the DNGs.
    Maybe Canon offers editing software for their CR2s, but CS4 is not going to be updated and there is no way around that.
    It's not what you want to hear, but that's the situation so far.
    Maybe Elements or Lightroom has updated raw support for your camera, so I encourage you to visit those forums and ask.

  • Photoshop CS4 won't print on a new Canon Pixma Pro 10 - Mac Yosemite -

    New Epson Pixma Pro 10. Printer works well with other applications, but just sends out blank pages when printing from Adobe Photoshop CS4. Canon suggested I use their plug, Print Studio Pro, and this worked with a file with layered images and text. However, it would not work with a file that had 3 text layers (two of which were hidden) unless I flattened the image. According to Canon, the plug in is supposed to work only with jpegs, but it did work with psd and tifs (when flattened). Any ideas on how I can get it to work directly from Photoshop.

    Thanks for your help - I did find and download the Photoshop update to 11.0.2 and went to the Yosemite developer page you mentioned and do not see how to download the update, so I guess I will just have to wait for that to be released.
    That's fine, you should do OK with Yosemite 10.10.1.
    I'm glad you found the CS4 11.0.2 update.  I nearly hit the roof when I read another post of yours with the "suite auto updates" nonsense after I had explained to you why one cannot rely on Adobes utterly useless auto updaters.
    The hapless Adobe auto updater team in India began to get their act together only as of the CS6 updates, but they are back to their unparalleled incompetence in CC and CC2014.
    In case you missed it, here's the link to the latest Canon Printer Drivers v3.1 for OS X from Apple, available to the general public, which sounds a lot newer than what you have.  There's no reason for you to stick to "Print Studio 1.3.6" whatever that may be.

  • My new canon 5D mark111 camera cannot open images in raw in photoshop cs4 extened

    I recently purchased a canon 5D mark111 camera and I cannot open the images in camera raw/ photoshop cs4 extended. How do I download a plug in to update this photshop?

    Hi Shelley,
    Camera raw plugins after 5.7 are not compatible with photoshop cs4, so you could use the 7.3 DNG Converter to convert
    the canon 5d markIII camera raw files to dng copies which should then open in photoshop cs4.
