Canon Powershot G16 RAW files and CS5

I want to be able to work with Canon RAW files shot on my G16 but CS5 doesn't seem to support this. Is there a plug in? or do I need to purchase new/latest software? I really don't want to if I can help it - I have a budget and I'm quite happy with everything else about CS5.

Photoshop uses an Adobe plugin called Camera Raw to read Raw files. Camera Raw must be updated every time a new camera comes on to the market and not all versions of Camera Raw are compatible with all versions of Photoshop.

The Canon Powershot G16 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 8.2 which is only compatible with CS6 and later.
To open Raw files from the G16 in Photoshop, your choices are to upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud.
Alternatively, you can download the free DNG converter from Adobe, convert all G16 Raw files to DNGs then open and edit the DNGs in CS5

Opening Canon 6D .CR2 raw files with CS5 Extended

Can't open Canon EOS 6D raw files with CS5. What is the minimum I need to do to open Canon EOS 6D .CR2 raw files in Photoshop CS5 Extended version 12.1 x64, and Brige CS5 version 4.1.0.54, and Camera Raw version 6.7.0.339? I would rather not have to go through the hassle of first converting all files with the Adobe DNG - is there another option? Can I upgrade my Adobe software?

Im having the same problem, and i use CS6
Do you know if CC can open 6D .CR2 files?
Thanks!

Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS3 do not recognise Canon PowerShot S90 raw files

My husband has lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS3 but they don't recognise CanonPowershot S90 camera raw files. I've tried searching for the problem on internet but can't find anything that helps. Adobe's DNG converter doesn't work either. I've tried different versions of the DNG converter to no avail. Buying a new Adobe product is out of the question.
Another problem is that his e-mail address has been changed so that he can't login to his Adobe account. We used to be able to contact Adobe Netherlands by phone or email but that option isn't available anymore.
Can anyone help please?

Go to here:
Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6
or here:
Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6
for the final versions of LR3. Download and install the software. You do not need to remove your present installation first, LR will install over it and fix any faults that now exist.
Your husband can log onto his Adobe account with the old email address and when in the account can edit the address to the new one.

How to load Canon EOS 6D Raw files in CS5? [was:load raw files]

How do I load raw files from canon 6D camera into CS5 ?

http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
The EOS 6D requires Camera Raw 7.3 or higher.
CS5 is only compatible with Camera Raw up to version 6.7. It is not compatible with Camera Raw 7+
Either upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud (US$30/month) or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US$10/month).
Alternatively, if you want to stick with CS5, convert all your Raw files to DNGs using Adobe's free DNG converter
http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html
Then open and edit the DNG files in CS5.

Canon EOS 450d RAW files and Aperure 2.1

Hi everybody!
Can anyone tell me if Aperture 2.1 (under Leopard 10.5.6) handles RAW files of my Canon EOS 450d?
Because, from this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475, it seems that this camera is supported. Actually Aperture show me correctly only the thumbnails. In fact RAW photos become totally red and "Unsupported format" message is displayed when I try to open them.
So I can't use Aperture, my favourite program, for image editing (yes, jpeg still works... but RAW is more powerful).
Is it a problem of my iMac or it's a bug of Mac OSX?
Thank you for your kindly help guys!

Actually I've found out that this is in fact a bug with the EOS 450D 1.0.4 Firmware. It happens only when you transfer RAW's directly from your camera.
If you use a Cardreader or update your 450D firmware, everything works as it should (in aperture 2.1.2 and the latest RAW update).
Unfortunately I don't think this will fix RAW's that exist in your library, if you check the files themselves you will see that the file size is way to small to be a RAW. So hope you didn't format your SD card yet..
here's a link to the FW update: http://web.canon.jp/imaging/eosd/firm-e/eosdigital4/firmware.html

IPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW Format

Hi,
It seems iPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW file format. Can this be added to be supported!?
Does anyone know how to report this to Apple and request this as a feature enhancement?

ARC rendering of DNG Files of photos shot with the new Canon Powershot G16 with "PSE V10 + CR 6.4.1" and with "PSE V13 + CR 8.6"

Because (for reasons which are not relevant to my questions): I can not reasonably migrate to the newest PSE Versions and I am more or less stuck for a couple of years to the use PSE V10. I am therefore looking for a relatively efficient solution to process/edit (a small percentage) of the RAW Files of my new/future camera(s) with the combination of PSE V10 and CR 6.4.1 (according to my understanding PSE V10 does not support CR 8.6 – PSE V10 does not even allow me to import RAW Files of new cameras into the PSE catalog).
I was hoping that the DNG Converter could be a good solution for me. I was intending
to convert the RAW Files of my new camera (and of my future new cameras) with an up-to-date version of the DNG converter,
import the .dng Files into PSE V10
and then look-at (and then for some few of them: edit) the DNG Files with the combination of PSE V10 and CR 6.4.1.
However, I got recently the impression, that the only Camera Profile of CR 6.4.1 that renders reasonably well the DNG Files of my new Canon Powershot G16 compact camera is the “Adobe Standard” Camera Profile. In my tests with the combination of PSE V10 and ACR 6.4.1, the rendering of these DNG Files with other CR 6.4.1 Profiles (e.g. the “Camera Faithful” Profile) is (regarding colors and brightness/contrast) really ugly and (for a non-expert like me) more or less unusable (while the rendering of the same DNG File with the “Camera Faithfull” Profile of the combination of CR 8.6 + PSE V13 is quite reasonable).
May I please ask the following questions to somebody who is familiar with DNG and CR?
Do my observations (i.e. ugly rendering of Canon Powershot G16 photos with the “Camera Faithful Profile” of ACR 6.4.1) correspond to what DNG experts should and are expecting?
What is the probable reason of the ugly rendering of the “Camera Faithful” Profile of CR 6.4.1? Does the DNG converter not include a G16-specific “Camera Faithful” profile in the DNG file?
Or do you think, that I made something wrong and that I am the one to blame for the ugly rendering with the “Camera Faithful” Profile used by CR 6.4.1? If that’s the case: what did I probably do wrong and what can I do better?
Do you think that with the combination of PSE V10 and CR 6.4.1, I will have similar problems with the DNG conversion of Raw files of future cameras like the follow-on to the Nikon D5300 or D7100 (which I will probably like to buy once available)? Or do you think that the problems that I encountered with the Powershot G16 photos are unlikely to happen with most other new camwras?A lot of thanks in advance for your answers.
In case you might wish to look at the typical rendering of one of my DNG Files (created with Version 8.6.0.254 of the DNG converter) of a Canon Powershot G16 .cr2 photo, I uploaded at https://www.dropbox.com/l/T3LJyZWkBZpcKkNe8S8ufr
following screenshots:
rendering with PSE V10 and CR 6.4.1 with the “Adobe Standard” Camera Profile” – looks OK
rendering with PSE V10 and CR 6.4.1 with the “Camera Faithful” Profile – looks ugly.
I did not create screenshots of the ugly rendering by CR 6.4.1 with other Camera Formats..
rendering with PSE V13 and CR 8.6 with the “Adobe Standard” Camera Profile – looks OK
rendering with PSE V13 and CR 8.6 with the “Camera Faithful” Profile – looks OK
screenshot of the unedited jpg. File created by the camera - looks OK

Thank You very much to all of You: in alphanumerical sequence to 99jon, to R Kelly and to ssprengel. You spoiled me with the Information in your answers. Thank You very much for it.
Based on your answers I will first try the probably simplest solution: the download of ACR 6.7.
If that will not work for me, I will try/investigate something else, that, if I interpret your suggestions correctly is the following: create with the combination of PSE 13 and ACR 8.6 profiles that I will try to use with the combination of PSE 10 and ACR 6.7 or 6.4. That is an idea that I was not at all aware of and that I owe to you.
All that is quite new to me, and I can therefore imagine that I will come back to you and ask for detailed suggestions or directions.
A Detail: it is on the same machine / same Windows-occurence that I have installed the combination of "PSE V10 + ACR 6.4" and the combination of "PSE V13 and ACR 8.6".
1) The main reason why I can not use for my main real-life "productive" PSE Catalog the combination of "PSE V13 and ACR 8.6" is the lack of Support of/by the 32-bit mode "KODAK Digital ROC Professional" Filter/Plug-in in a PSE V13 Environment. I need and will need that filter for a couple of years for the retouching/restoration of thousands scanned Versions of my old slides that have a strong color-cast. I am also using the 32-bit mode "Kodak Digital GEM Professional" Filter for a strong noise reduction in the scanned Versions of my old slides (but I can imagine, that I could find good 64-bit mode alternatives to the GEM Filter).
2) In addition I have with the V12 and V13 PSE Editors, for a lot of my photos files, problems with the wrong Dates/Times assigned by the V12/V13 PSE Editors to new file containing a new/edited version of my Foto files.....
But these 2 previous items are other stories/problems that I would like and shoud keep separate.
Thank You again for your wonderfull help.

Accessing raw file taken with Canon Powershot G16 using Elements 11

I own adobe photoshop elements 11, which I have used successfully for the past 18 months or so with my Canon Powershot G15 camera. I recently upgraded to the Canon Powershot G16 but was disappointed to find that elements 11 does not recognise the raw files taken with the G16. I have tried various intenet forum fixes to no avail. I would rather not go to the expense of purchasing Photoshop Elements 12 to remedy this shortcoming, particularly as Elements 11 more than meets my current photoediting needs. I would be grateful for information on any patches etc that might allow me to access raw files taken with the G16 without have to resort to purchasing Elements 12.

after much consternation I have discovered that the problem is APERTURE. Despite claiming that the program is compatible with the G16 RAW files it really is NOT. I had to download Canon's own photoediting and viewing software....and guess what no problem at all editing, viewing any of the files.
I tried them in Lightroom too and guess what...no problem at all!
So although Aperture has been like an old friend it is time to say bye bye and make the big trek over the Lightroom!
Sad but relieved.

Camera Raw Support: how to open Canon 7D Mark II Raw files in CS5.5?

I bought CS5.5 only a year ago and a Canon 7D Mark II a couple of months ago. CS5.5 won't read raw files and I can't find a camera raw update that works with CS5. Did Adobe quit supporting CS5.5 only a year after they sold it to me or is there a way to update camera raw so it will work with my camera?

CS5.x is obsolete software and is no longer supported by Adobe ever since CS6 was released. The last version of the Camera Raw plug-in to run with CS5.x was ACR 6.7.1. There will be no further updates for CS5.x.
You need to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.8 on each batch of raw files that cannot be opened in ACR 6.7.1.
Adobe DNG 8.8:
Adobe DNG Converter Windows
Adobe DNG Converter Mac

Canon G16 Raw File completly shuts down the computer

I am using Aperture3.6 and Yosemite (completely updated) on a 4 year MacBook Air.
I have used Aperture and macs for many many years and have been shooting pictures in RAW and editing them in Aperture for 8 years. I have a huge library of RAW files in my aperture library.
I have used Canon DLSRs for years and recently traded in my old Canon 550D for a Canon G16 (it is 5 days old!). When I upload my pictures (RAW+JPG) into Aperture and try to edit or view them (not preview them) about 30% are corrupted (pink psychedelic or black). The others, I am unable to open. Aperture freezes up the entire computer and if I'm listening to music on iTunes the music starts crackling and stopping and then goes dead completely. I cannot forcequit the programs as the computer is completely frozen.
I have changed HD Cards and taken it to the camera shop and they cannot find any problem with the camera.
I've noted on the forum that in 2013/14 peopole reported a few problems with RAW files from the G16 but since then the RAW Compatability has been fixed to include the G16, and it appears no one else is having trouble.
When I reopen Aperture and go to other projects I am able to edit and view tthose raw files with no problem whatsoever. I've created two new libraries as a test (aperture and iphoto) and the problem persists.
Can anyone give me advice as to whether this is a camera issue or a software (aperture/iPhoto) issue or perhaps my old air needs renewing. But it seems strange that when the new RAWS fromthe G16 are opened the whole computer freezes and even effects I Tunes!!!!
What the F?

OS X 10.7 (Lion) iPhoto incompatible with Canon G16 RAW files

Can anyone help me with this issue? I recently decided to shoot RAW on my Canon cameras EOS 40D & Power Shot G16. No issues in importing EOS 40D RAW files, but not the same with the G16 RAW files. After the importing phase is finished I would receive an error message indicating that *.CR2 (G16 RAW) is not supported. I checked the support threads and it shows that G16 should be supported. Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance.

Here is the download link for the RAW update:
Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 5.01
The bad news is that the system requirements state Mountain lion or later is required.

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Raw files with CS5 photoshop and Nikon D3300

I currently have CS5 suite, I know it's old..but its what I have to work with. I just purchased the Nikon D3300 and cannot open the raw files. I installed the 8.4 dng converter, but obviously that does not work. i tried to uninstall it and install the 6.3 as I read that on a board. But I can't even uninstall the 8.4. No option for that in the uninstall in windows..it just does not come up. Help!! How do open the raw files in CS5?

You need Windows 7/8/8.1 to run the DNG 8.4 converter. Which do you have?
Before you do anything, there is a proper way to use it. You convert a folder of raw files not a single raw file.
Camera Raw: How to use Adobe DNG Converter - YouTube
The DNG converter is a single executable file. There are no registry entries. That's why there is no uninstall in the Control Panel. All you have to do is locate the file and delete it.
