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.

  • Have  Canon 7d MK2 and Photoshop Elements 12 and I cannot open my RAW FILES

    I have a CANON 7D MK2 and PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 and I cant open my RAW files

    The 7D Mark II requires ACR plug-in 8.7 which came out after PSE13 was the current version so you can upgrade or use the DNG Converter 8.7 or newer to create DNGs from the CR2s and those DNGs will work with the older ACR plug-in versions.

  • Can't open Canon Cr2 file in Photoshop CS6

    I purscahed PShop CS6 Upgrade a few days ago as an upgrade for the full CS4 Extended (which was upgraded to CS5 last year).  I installed CS6 as an upgrade to the installed and registered CS5. 
    Neither Bridge CS6 nor Photoshop CS6 will read Canon Cr2 raw files, and the "About Photoshop" splash screen indicates my purchased CS6 is a Beta version. 
    What has gone wrong?  Should I uninstall CS5 and CS6, reinstall CS4 and then apply the CS6 upgrade to CS4?
    Thanks

    Hi Chris
    Thanks for the reply.  My reply is a bit delayed from time zones - I
    live in Australia & had to go out to do some work.
    My CS6 upgrade was bought from the Adobe Store Australia on May 10.     
    Order number is:  AD003318323AU
    The downloadsI got on May 10 seemed to cause the problem.  I had trouble
    with the Akamai option but used a second option to get CS6 in 2 files -
    the small exe and the big zipped file.  The small exe wouldn't unzip the
    main file so I unzipped it manually and installed from that, and somehow
    or other I finished up with the beta version.  I'd never installed the
    beta version before this, but the "About Photoshop" splash screen made
    it obvious that I had it then.
    When I got home a while ago I ran the Adobe download process again and
    this time it worked, and file sizes and date last modified etc were
    different in today's download.  I deactivated the first CS6, uninstalled
    it, ran Adobe Creative Suite Cleanser Tool and reinstalled from todays
    downloaded files.  My new CS6 is the correct & current version.
    Adobe will probably have another confused customer somewhere who did
    what I did at about the same time and got the beta version instead of
    the real program.
    The CR2 files I couldn't open were from a Canon G1X.  My Canon 5D Mk2
    files opened properly.
    Thanks again

  • Some Canon CR2 RAW Files Will Not Open In Elements 8

    I use a Canon 7D DSLR.  Up until 30 minutes ago I never had a problem opening Canon CR2 RAW files in Photoshop Elements 8.
    Some files still open others do not.  I can think of only one thing.  I was shooting a large number of frames and reduced the RAW Image size down from RAW Large Only to RAW Medium with Small Jpeg to give me more room on the Compact Flash Card.
    The Large RAW only CR2 files open fine in PSE 8, the Jpegs open fine, but the smaller sized CR2 files will not open and I get a wrong file type message in PSE8.
    Any ideas why this would happen?  I suspect it is a function of the camera setting, but all RAW files download as CR2 files.
    I appreciate any guidance in this matter.  Needless to say I am resetting my camera back to Large RAW files only.
    Alex

    ACR 5.x only supported full-sized 7D RAWs, but ACR 6.x supports 7D mRAW and sRAW, so just update to the latest version of the plugin, following the PSE-specific instructions:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    sRAW and mRAW files are not RAWs because the camera has already demosaicked them to RGB and encoded them as lossless JPG.
    Here is technical information on the reduce-sized RAWs:

  • I'm running Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4 and can't open or import NEF files from a Nikon D600

    Need help understanding why the NEF files created by my D700 work fine in both Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4, but the same file format created by a Nikon D600 keep getting a unkown error when I try to import or open them.

    You can either upgrade Lightroom or use Adobe's Free DNG Converter to make a backwards-compatible file for LR 2.x to read. New camera support is only effected on current versions of LR and Adobe Camera Raw and your version(s) do not support the D600.

  • Displayed white balance differs from camera value (Canon .CR2 raw)

    I've noticed that Lightroom will often display a sequence or group of pictures with a very visibly different white balance between consecutive frames.
    Looking at the EXIF info in a sample Canon .CR2 raw (EOS-350D), the recorded colour temperature is 5200K (camera set for AWB), but Lightroom reports this as 4950K after import. For the next frame (continuous shot), the EXIF colour temperature is again 5200K, but Lightroom reports 4900K.
    This still happens in LR1.2 (on newly imported photos).
    Why does Lightroom appear to make its own decision for white balance rather than use the recorded value?
    Thanks,
    Barrie

    In any case, I'm worried about the discrepancy
    between Aperture and Camera Raw on something so
    basic.
    Sorry I can't help you directly with Aperture as I haven't bought it - yet. However, re-the above quote, I'd just mention that the interpretation of colour temperature values is not quite as simple as it might seem. Even more so when you bear in mind that RAW converters from 3rd parties like Adobe or Apple are not based on the RAW conversion engine produced by the camera manufacturer - in effect they have to guess/estimate what the temp/tint values in the RAW file actually mean...
    Some time back I made a series of tests using 3 Canon cameras, with ACR, Capture One & the Canon RAW converter. Each produced noticeably different results, and C1 & ACR showed quite different temp/tint values. (The Canon software only showed 'As Shot' - no values). The differences were consistent between shots from each camera (using WB values input or AWB) - but they weren't consistent from one camera to another. Which program produced the best result depended very much on the Camera/Subject/Personal taste...
    Hope someone can help with Aperture specific info, I'm sure there must be a way of making camera specific adjustments to the RAW conversions...

    Thank you so much.  You are absolutely right.  I will have to reduce the screen density when I work with those programs.

  • Keywording problem in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4

    I'm experiencing a problem with keywording in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4. When i export a batch of photos that were keyworded in LR to the desk top then open a photo in PS I  find only one keyword when I look through the "file info" menu item.  Any ideas on how I might resolve this problem or what I may be doing wrong.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Make sure that you have the keywords setup so that they will export. You can check by right clicking on a keyword in the Keyword List panel and choosing Edit Keyword Tag. The dialog shown below should open and should see a checkmark against Include on Export and Export Containing Keywords. It's fairly easy to get this wrong when working with hierarchical keywords.
    Also, you can configure the Keywording panel so that it shows which keywords will be assigned when image is exported.

  • Camera Raw and Photoshop fluctuations

    When I open a JPG from Camera Raw and view it in Photoshop I'm noticing that the Photoshop version, viewed at 100%, is slightly darker, viewed side-by-side, than the preview in Camera Raw, also at 100%. Both in the same color space (sRGB).
    Interestingly, when I changed the color settings in Photoshop to Adobe RGB and then reprocessed the photo in Camera Raw as an Adobe RGB file and then opened it in Photoshop, the side-by-side comparison shows the Photoshop version as slightly lighter, not darker, than the version shown in the preview window in Camera Raw. Both also at 100%.
    Any thoughts on the subject would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Tom

    Both Camera Raw and Photoshop are using your display profile to make the image preview. If the two don't match (everything matches on my displays) I suspect your display profile is less than optimal.

    Anyone know why cant I import Canon CR2 RAW pic into iPhoto???

    Although all Canon RAW files are are suffixed CR2, they are not all the same. In fact, each model of Camera produces a different RAW. What camera do you have? Is it in the Supported List?

    D700 first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 5.1 (CS6 ships with ACR 7.0)
