Does camera raw update when I update Lightroom?

I had Lightroom 4.3, and just updated to Lightroom 4.4. Does the Camera Raw version (and maybe DNG converter) update to the latest versions when I update Lightroom? Or do I need to update the Camera Raw and DNG Converter manually? How do I find out what versions of those are currently installed?
Also, does Lightroom 4.4 support the newest Camera Raw version?
Thanks for any help!

NO! Lightroom does not have the Adobe Camera Raw Plugin, this plugin is used in Photoshop CS and PS Elements.
Lightroom has the same raw processing engine built into the program as Adobe Camera Raw. e.g. Lr 4.3 is the equivalent of ACR 7.3 and LR 4.4 is the equivalent of ACR 7.4
So Lightroom itself is updated independently from ACR.
Lightroom is a complete stand alone software application and does not require the installation of any other Adobe applications on your computer for it to function. The Develop Module in LR provides the same functions as ACR.
Adobe Camera Raw is a Plugin for Photoshop.
The Adobe DNG Converter is also a stand alone product which sole purpose is to convert raw files from supported digital cameras to the DNG format.
e.g (The latest DNG Converter 8.6 can convert raw files from new camera models not supported by LR 4.4 to the DNG format and enable LR 4.4 to work with those files.)
Quote "Also, does Lightroom 4.4 support the newest Camera Raw version?"
No the Latest version of ACR is 8.6 the equivalent is LR 5.6

    Never. You'll need to upgrade to Lr 5.7, or convert your D750 files to DNG for Lr 4 to use.
    As a site search would amply have indicated.

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

    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.

  • I am using Lightroom 4.4,  I recently downloaded the latest Camera Raw update, 8.8.  Will it work with LR 4.4?

    I recently downloaded the most recent Camera Raw update, 8.8.  Will it work with LR 4.4?  My current Camera Raw plug-in does not recognize my new Canon 100-400mm lens.

    Quote "I have downloaded the most recent DNG converter. I guess I was mistaken in thinking I could use this as a plug-in with LR.  If I understand correctly, I need to convert image files taken with the new lens with the DNG converter and then load them in LR 4 in order to use the Lens Correction feature in LR.  Does that sound correct?"
    No, as far as I am aware the only function that the DNG Converter performs is to convert the raw files from a supported digital camera model to a DNG file format.
    This will allow you to work with the DNG files in earlier versions of Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw that do not provide support for the particular camera model raw files. It has nothing to do with Lens profiles.

  • Does Camera Raw 5.6 Update work for PSE 6?

    I have a PSE6, and have bought a Canon Powershot G11.
    Camera Raw update 5.6 includes the Canon G11, but the update documentation seems to suggest it can't be applied to PSE 6 on Windows:
    Camera Raw 5.6 update page:
    "The Camera Raw 5.6 plug-in is not compatible with versions of Photoshop earlier than Photoshop CS4, versions of Photoshop Elements earlier than Photoshop Elements 6.0."
    But the ReadMe file says:
    "The Camera Raw 5.6 plug-in is not compatible with versions of Photoshop earlier than Photoshop CS4or versions of Photoshop Elements earlier than Photoshop Elements 7.0 for Windows and Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac."
    Am I right in thinking that my one-year-old copy of PSE6 (Windows version) is no longer functional with a new camera?  Or am I mistaken?
    Advice appreciated -

    Some of the Adobe download links are wrong and often take you to an earlier version of Adobe Camera Raw. The latest version is ACR 5.6 which brings support for the newest camera models such as the
    Canon EOS 7D, PowerShot S90 & G11, Nikon D3S and others.
    So don’t worry it will work. First you will need to exit Photoshop Elements.
    To get the plug-in for PSE6 go to the link below - instructions are for Windows users. They will differ for Mac users.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4626&fileID=4303
    Download the plug-in for Elements 8
    Open the zip folder you just downloaded and click Extract Files.
    You should see a 64 bit folder and a plug-in file below it. The plug in has a file name: Camera Raw.8bi
    Now drag the plug-in file (or copy it) into the File Formats folder in the following location:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats.  See Gotcha
    If running windows Vista you will probably get a pop-up requesting Administrator permission. Assuming you are the Administrator for your computer, simply agree.
    I can confirm it does work as I have recently updated my plug-in for PSE6 using the above method. To test it, go to one of your photo folders, right click on a raw file (NEF, CR2, DNG etc) and select open with Photoshop Elements. The image should automatically open in ACR 5.6 giving you access to the latest slider adjustments, including white balance and exposure.
    Note: If you have an earlier Camera Raw plug-in, I suggest you move it from the File Formats folder to My Documents before you begin. This will prevent it being overwritten by the new Camera Raw file (it will have the same name) and you can always move it back again if the download installation fails.
    If you are using a 64-bit edition of Windows, then move the plug-in file from the unzipped download folder by navigating to:C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats.

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

  • Can't get the Camera Raw update to 8.3

    OK, this happens every time there is an update. I see that Adobe has an update for Photoshop CC, but the Creative Clod Desktop application says it is up to date, which it isn't. Have contacted Adobe support many times Twice today, the Chat people cut me off while transferring.
    What I have already done:
    Since I have been through this many times, I know the standard drill well.
    Log in and out via the desktop app. even go so far as to log out, quit, reboot the computer and log back in. Didn't help.
    Delete the AAM & OOBE(?) stuff and do the same thing. Didn't help.
    Uninstall and reinstall the Photoshop CC application. Reinstalled the 8.2 version of the plugin.
    Uninstall and reinstall the Creative Clod Desktop application. Didn't help.
    Contacted Adobe support and got cut off twice.
    FWIW, I have a permanent license for Lightroom and got an update notice for it via the old style updater and it worked fine, but now I get a notice when I try to go to Photoshop that I need the Camera Raw 8.3 plugin which Adobe refuses to let me get.
    This happens with every update, but the trick that worked the last time never works again. To say I am frustrated would be a massive understatement.

    Oldbalddude to determine the exact cause of the installation failure I would recommend reviewing the installation log for Camera RAW update.  Please see Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html for information on how to locate and interpret your installation log file.  Please feel free to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion thread.

  • Photoshop 12.0 Camera Raw Updates never download. Any ideas?

    Trying to download the Camera Raw update for Photoshop 12.0.  No matter how many times I quit and re-try, the updates download but never complete the installation process.  This is common to all my Adobe products, so I'm guessing it's the updater. In the progress bar I can see the downloads taking place, but at the end of the process the updater gives me the message> " [product name]. There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
    No amount of quitting and restarting etc has any impact.
    I would prefer not to have to uninstall lightroom etc so I've held off doing that in the hopes there's an easier way.
    Is this just me or do others have this problem too?

    I’d suggest posting this sort of issue in the Downloading and Installing forum: https://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup
    I’ve seen Adobe support people respond to things in that forum during daylight hours in the US, or you might try just starting a Chat session indicating you’re having issues installing Elements (or maybe Photoshop) by going to adobe.com, clicking on Menu then choosing Learn and Support and jump through the hoops to narrow down what you’re having an issue with, then click Still Need Help and choose Chat.
    The Adobe Camera Raw forum is for the PS plug-in and perhaps general raw-decoding questions not specific to a product.
    Not for either Lightroom or “Photoshop 12” issues.  By “Photoshop 12” do you mean Photoshop Elements 12 (PSE12) or Photoshop CS5 which is also known as Photoshop 12?

  • Camera Raw updates Date Taken in JPG Files

    Hi,
    I have CS6/CR 7.2.  I have had this issue where my file dates became changed (8000 odd files) so I had to restore 23000 files from backup . 
    When investigating trying to find out what happened.  when I open a JPG from Windows Explorer, photoshop is set to use Camera Raw for jpg files on open (ok).  If I cancel the dialog, nothing happens (ok).  If I click Done or Open Image, the file itself has the "Date Taken" time updated - 7 hours ahead of the original correct time. 
    This pretty much matches the date issue I have on the 8000 files.  Is this expected behaviour?  Why would Camera Raw update Date Taken and did it choose 8 hours because I am in the PST timezone (GMT-8 or currently GMT-7 with daylight savings)?
    I have reproduced this on 4 or file random files - taking copies and comparing afterwards.
    Thanks!
    Mark.

    Camera Raw writes your JPEG files back out with updated metadata no matter what settings you choose, because Adobe feels they understand the format of metadata in the files well enough to be confident they will not corrupt the files.
    I've asked them for years to avoid doing that, to no avail.  I don't want my original files re-written.  It sounds as though you are of a like mind. 
    It is for this reason that I *never* open a JPEG file through Camera Raw.
    It's possible there is a time zone problem or something, but that's not the point.  What, specifically, is corrupted is less important than Adobe believing it's okay to write back to your JPEG files.  That you have actually seen something corrupted is testament to it not being unfounded paranoia.
    Generally I'm supportive of Adobe's design decisions, but absolutely not on this issue.  All I ask is that Adobe honor the "keep settings in the central database" preference choice for ALL input files, not just those for which they would otherwise write an XMP file.  I don't think it's too much to ask.
    By the way, you might want to visit the Camera Raw-specific forum and make note of your issue there:

  • Is there a CS5 camera raw update for the Nikon D600?

    is there a CS5 camera raw update for the Nikon D600

    Not as yet. ACR 7.2 does have preliminary support for D600. Output may change in final release of D600 support in upcoming ACR 7.3.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2012/10/camera-raw-7-2now-available.html
    ACR 7.3 will have complete support for D600.
    But, if you're on CS5, I'm sorry to break it you cannot upgrade to ACR 7.x...
    You may want to consider upgrading to CS6 or Lightroom 4 (cheaper alternative) to get ACR 7.x support.
    Or, use the DNG converter, make TIFFs and open them with PS.
