Does Camera Raw support Canon G9?

Appreciate any help with this problem: My new Canon G9 raw files (.CR2's) are not recognized by Bridge 4.1.
Windows XP, SP2
Just installed CS3 Master Collection including:
Bridge 2.1.0.100
Camera Raw 4.1
Bridge wont show Raw thumbs -- only "CR2" icons.
Have downloaded and replaced Camera Raw 4.1 Plug-In (with "Camera Raw.8bi) into correct folder several times:
Common Files/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats" per Adobe instructions
Reopened Bridge and it still wont show images -- only "CR2" icons. Note that .JPG's are opened in Camera Raw.
Went to tools and Purged the Cache - no change
When I double click on the preview, Photoshop opens with a message:
"Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
I really need help on this one.
Thanks and Cheers,
Neal

David,
The G9 support is unofficial, that's true.
However ACR is not designed to emulate the results from the Canon in-camera conversion at all, and the defaults are nothing but a starting point.
This has been covered ad nauseam here. Please do a forum search.
Camera manufacturers, Canon and Nikon in particular, perform in-camera RAW to JPEG conversions designed to generate the over-saturated, over-contrasty and over-sharpened images that appeal to most amateurs.
Their stand-alone RAW conversion software also performs the same conversion to your RAW images.
Noise is also hidden by compressing the shadows so you don't see much of the noise inherent in the image.
Adobe Camera Raw, ACR, on the other hand, comes with default settings designed to give you the most detail possible (even if this sometimes means revealing some of the noise hidden by the camera manufacturers in their RAW conversion software), as well as the most natural images.
That being said, you can calibrate your camera to ACR and come up with your own settings to produce exactly what you want, including the JPEG-look of the camera manufacturer, and save that as your profile.
The key is to learn how to use ACR properly and to calibrate your camera to ACR.
CLICK HERE for some essential reading. A new edition revised by Jeff Schewe for CS3 and ACR 4.x will be out in October.
The ACR defaults are nothing more than a suggested starting point.
The color temperature won't necessarily match either.

    Does camera raw support the Nikon D5300, if not when there will be an update for this camera model?

    The asterisk next the model number on the download page linked above means there is preliminary support, which usually means the camera is supported by pretending it is an earlier model with similar sensor.  This can lead to color issues, so while you can convert your NEFs to DNGs with the DNG Converter, and open them with PSE12, now, save your NEFs and be prepared to revisit those pictures once the final release of ACR 8.3 occurs probably in the next few weeks, with finalized support.

  • Does the Adobe Camera Raw support Canon Rebel T5

    I have recently learned about RAW images and I am trying it out.  I have Photoshop Elements 12 and when I tried to upload the photo into Adobe Camera Raw it wouldn't upload.  What do I need to do in order to be able to edit my RAW images

    Yes,it does.
    FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
    Your camera requires ACR 8.4.
    PSE12 was shipped with ACR 8.0 and can be updated to 8.5.
    Go to the menu Help/Update to get the latest version.
    If that does not work, what is your OS version?

    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.

  • Camera Raw Support for Canon 7D MkII

    Just trying to get some idea if I should spend the $99.00 to buy Aperture from the Apple Store.  This might sound a little over the top, but the work flow I miss by not having RAW support in Lightroom is worth the expense of buying Aperture.
    I do find it very disappointing that Adobe have not as yet provided support for the new Canon 7D MkII.  This will be a VERY popular camera.
    More importantly I find this tardiness on Adobe's part very disappointing because they market CC buy saying "You will always have up to date software".  When you consider Apple and Google Picasa have both already supported the Canon 7D MkII.  I might add they both had support for the camera within days of it's release on 31 of Oct.
    So after my little rant.
    Can anybody from Adobe advise when we will see Camera Raw support the new Canon 7DMkII?
    Even if it is in Beta form I would be very happy to be a Beta tester.  I have very extensive experience in testing software and would be prepared to do structured Beta testing.  I would be very happy if someone from Adobe Labs would contact me for the purpose of Beta testing Camera Raw support for the 7D MkII.
    Kind Regards

    Thanks ssprengel, you have clearly put into words what is currently reality at Adobe, and confirmed my suspicion of Aperture being a dead product.  Although Google's Picasa is not dead.
    I do realize Adobe Products are very well developed and software does take time to perfect before it gets released.  I have been in the software development game for 35 years
    But Camera RAW is an adjunct to Lightroom, Photoshop, Premier Pro etc.  As such the support for new camera models should be a relatively simple exercise and should not be held up by other R&D on the products that Camera Raw plugs into.  I believe they have in the past released updates to Camera Raw that essentially was just for new camera models.  I do realize I could be wrong on this point, but I fail to see why they can't achieve this outcome.
    Also, as I said Adobe Market Creative Cloud membership saying you will always be up to date. Or words to that effect.
    To have an Adobe support person get upset because he has a large number of people pestering Adobe, and not him personally, trying to get ans answer as to the timing of the release of support for a new camera model, quite frankly is totally unacceptable.  Not acceptable to the customers and not acceptable to the poor support person who has to handle disgruntled customers due to poor planning on Adobe's part.
    In my original post I made a very serious offer to do Beta Testing on support for the Canon 7DMkII Raw files.  But when i last checked with Adobe Labs the current Beta does not include support for this camera.
    There maybe extenuating circumstances around the timely supply of this support.  Like when did Canon provide the Specs for the 7D MkII and are those specs so different from other currently supported models.   Even some feedback as to what the problem is, would help us understand.
    I hope I have expressed my thoughts objectively and hope this discussion stream will get to management at Adobe.  In fact I am very inclined to ensure it does get to senior management.  I don't want to start writing a personal letter to the Chairman of Adobe's Board, but sometimes things do need a shake up.

  • Camera RAW Support for Canon 7D Mark II

    Hi,
    I've just purchased the Canon 7D Mark II, connected it to my PC, but then found that Adobe Camera RAW doesn't support it yet. Any updates when this camera might be possibly supported? 

    Would it really do any good for Adobe to communicate an official release date? If they didn't meet that date then you would just call Adobe a liar. Adobe has users from several different companies waiting for support. And whether you believe it or not, there is no providing of specs from camera makers. They don't care whether Adobe Camera Raw supports the camera. Adobe is just another company to them. Adobe has to purchase each camera and then create the profiles for it. The real solution? Camera makers, agree on a common file format. If you won't do that, then YOU take the blame for this delay that happens about four times every year.
    Actually, it would help, Jim. It does not have to be exact... it would help to know "this quarter" or "by the end of the year" or "mid-December". It would help because I could decide whether to find a workaround patch, or switch to a different system.
    The camera makers are more than willing to provide that info, but according to a contact at Canon USA, in 2008 Adobe changed the game and decided to be more proprietary with their compatibility, presumably so that people would be required to upgrade their software every year just to be able to use new camera technology. It was Adobe's decision, and they could easily decide to play nice. But it is an unfair characterization to say that the camera makers don't care if Adobe supports their camera. That is just a silly assertion.
    It comes down to he said - she said, and the two companies are simply pointing fingers at each other. Neither you nor I know the absolute truth about who is right... I only know that I am dissatisfied with Adobe's lack of communication, and slow response when compared to other companies, larger and smaller.

  • Is there Camera RAW support for Lightroom 4.4 and Canon 7D Mark ii?

    I need Camera RAW support for Lightroom 4.4 and Canon 7D Mark ii.  Is there a Camera RAW version for me? 

    Thanks for your help.  I checked out DNG on YouTube and understand more
    about it.  I downloaded the DNG converter and transferred in files from my
    camera.  Then I imported into Lightroom.  It works!   Thanks again.

  • When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size?

    When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size from canon 5d mark iii, in older versions I used to be able to import the files as larger images. It use to have a number of options for the images size. The option now is smaller than the maximum size used to be.

    You know what - I'm sorry
    I'd had a crazy long all-nighter session sorting out images for a client, then decided - when I should have simply gone to bed - to set up the new photoshop. At the very start I made a silly mistake, tried to sort it out then decided to call it a day, responding to your remarks with the problem still in my head but feeling more and more tired.
    Responded again to your comment earlier with the problem still in my head but not in front of me on the screen - however with a fresh head I just turned it all on, opened up PS and today could instantly see what was going on - Oops!
    Thank you for being patient with a sleep deprived photographer who must have been getting annoying yesterday
    I am officially embarrassed

  • Can I upgrade Camera Raw support in Elements 10 to level 8.3 or 8.4?

    I just bought a Nikon D5300 and I wanted to shoot see some test images I shot in Camera Raw.  Trouble is that Elements 10 support for NEF files is at level 6.7, and, according to the Adobe charts, the D5300 NEF files are supported at level 8.3 or 8.4 because the camera is newer than Elements 10.  So, I tried to run an update in Elements 10, but it's telling me that it's up to date.
    So, how do I get support for my new camera in Elements 10?  Is there a way to upgrade the Camera Raw support to level 8.3 or 8.4?

    I posted a second question because I tried the DNG converter, but it doesn't support the 5300, or I can't get it to work.  So, my thought was to try to find a copy of PSE 11 I could register, and then try to upgrade it. 
    Soapbox mode on.
    Much of the conversation about raw files relates to the continuous improvement process of both the camera manufacturers and the software makers.  In my case, Nikon released the D5300 in November 2013 with full support for it in its View NX software.  And I can use that software to create JPEG's that PSE 10 can work with, but it's far from an optimal solution.
    Adobe brought out PSE12, and the Camera Raw plug in covers a host of new cameras including mine.  OK, but the issue is that those of us who have 'older' software then are forced to upgrade to the PSE version that will support our cameras, instead of just installing a plug-in, as we do to our browsers when a new version of Flash Player comes out.  the only thing constant is 'change'.
    It's apparent from comments I've been reading on the Forum that many of the Adobe employees who answer questions here are put out by the pace of change and the amount of work they have to do in order to respond to new cameras, etc.  That's their job, and they should complain less and work more, IMO.  If those Adobe employees are irritated by the questions we users ask, perhaps they should reconsider the attitude they display in answering them, or maybe even a career change.
    However, Adobe itself should be making the plug-ins for PS, LR and PSE so they can apply to older versions when possible.  Adobe needs to set a horizon on what older products to work with, and not just the latest version.  When I worked in software development, that horizon was -2 versions plus the two in development.  By that logic, PSE 10 should be capable of supporting the latest versions of the Camera Raw plug-in.  And if I were in Adobe's software development unit, this is what I'd pitch for.  Microsoft does it, and Adobe does it too with Microsoft products, so why not with PS, LR and PSE?  It's not that hard, people.
    Soapbox mode off.
    I can and probably will use the Nikon software for raw images.  If I want to use some special effects, I can come back to PSE or LR.  But I'm not disposed to throw another $80 to Adobe for a product every time I buy a new camera. 
    Would you be?

  • Camera RAW support 2.2 update and Nikon .NEF unsupported image format

    Hi,
    I Use a Nikon D2x and only take raw images (.NEF file)
    After I update from RAW support 2.1.1 update to RAW support 2.2 update, all my raw image file (.NEF file) taken before 13th September 2006 ! would not display - In the Aperture program, if i navigate to a project / folder and clicked on a thumb nail in the browser, I get a magenta / cyan screen showing in the main viewer panel with unsupported image format. ?
    This is my worst-case scenario ! - I have entrusted Aperture with all my digital images (all raw .NEF) images taken before 13th September 2006 are un accessible with camera RAW support 2.2 update installed !
    I have deleted (the 2.2 update) “from” System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle and reinstall the RAW support 2.1.1 update.
    * NOW I can now see all my raw Nikon .NEF images and they are now all fully functional again *.
    Their is a problem with the Apple digital camera RAW support 2.2 update, it rendered the Aperture program useless to me for my older .NEF image/files (as above).
    This requires a fix ASAP
    Martin

    Thankfully, I wasn't affected by the issue given I'm currently with Canon. There have been Canon woes in the past though.
    On a side note, I never update anything until it has been out for a few weeks just to be sure. Because Aperture is such an integral component of my studio and business, I make sure everything always works before making any updates or changes - including upgrading cameras.
    I'm sure the next update will fix the magenta issues.
    Best,
    CD

  • Apple Digital Camera RAW Support 2.2. update

    After todays Apple Security Update 2008-007 the Apple Digital Camera RAW Support 2.2. update finally works correctly and the data can be aquired via card reader.
    Message was edited by: jdonath

    Lucky you jdonath....
    I have still have the problem that have been mentioned in a number of posts in the forum, and what I guess you are refering to. And I have tried the advices I have found in those posts. I must admit that I might not have found them all.
    The CF card on my Nikon D2Xs shows in finder, .nef files are there, but Aperture 2.1.1 don´t recognize my files only the card itself.
    I use a card reader-not transferring files directly from the camera. I have installed the latest security update and camera raw 2.2. I have tried to go back to version 2.1 of the raw converter with no luck. I have repaired permissions, both with Onyx and with the disk tool in OSX.
    Aperture opens when I put the CF card in the reader and it shows in the import option/drives window in Aperture, but the files are somewhere in outer space or at least hidden and unavailable for import.
    So for now my solution is to dump the files to a picture dump folder on my hard-drive and import them from there to one of the libraries I use.
    I have different libraries for work and private files in case someone wondered
    It does not make any difference which library I use the problem is persistent. This feels like unnecessary work and not a very satisfying sollution in my workflow.
    Yeah, yeah i use both belt and suspenders so the files are kept safe on an external drive as well. Manually copied of course... and btw i use a combo of referenced and managed files, but that should not make any difference. I have tried to alter that in the import options, with no apparent result of course.
    Can anyone give me a hint what could (still) be wrong or do I have to be moderately patient and wait till next sunrise (it is late autumn and dark in Norway this time of year) , when Apple sends out version 2.3 and make a prayer that they remember that some photographers are still back in the stone age when comes to cameraequipment... ( I wish someone gave me a D3)
    And just to make the confusion complete... It used to work BEFORE the security update last night...
    Cheers and my 2 cents

  • Lumix fz1000 camera raw support on pse12

    Does pse12 camera raw support lumix dmc fz1000?

    Unfortunately, PSE12 last camera raw version is 8.5. I tried updating PE12 and got the message that it was up to date. From what I can see camera raw version 8.6 is only available for Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom version 5.6.  I suspect that 8.6 will only be available with the next version of PSE(probably 13)

  • Can I upgrade the Camera Raw support in PSE 11 to version 8.3 or 8.4, so it supports my Nikon D5300?

    I just upgraded my camera - and the Camera Raw support in PSE 11 is not able to support it.  Can I upgrade the Camera Raw plugin, or is Adobe going to force me to buy an upgrade to PSE 12 or another of their products?

    You'd better complain to Nikon... Just like other camera manufacturers who issue new raw formats for each and every new camera. Adobe and all other software companies have to reverse engineer each new format. Those manufacturers could use the open and public DNG format (a few do).
    Adobe answer to that problem is to provide a free software, the DNGconverter which can batch convert a folder of raw files to the universal DNG raw format which your old Elements version can read.
