Lightroom update 2.6/ Camera Raw 5.6 + CS3?

OK then, Lightroom has a new update- v2.6
So does Camera Raw - 5.6
I do 99% of my raw file processing in LR , but occasionally need to do it in CS3.
According to the notes if I upgrade LR to v2.6, I need to update Camera Raw to v5.6
I still use Photoshop CS3. Until more money comes in I wasn't planning on upgrading to CS4
This being the case, do I NOT want to update my Lightroom to v5.6??? Will that screw things up if I am still using Photoshop CS3?
Can you have both Camera Raw 5.5 and 5.6 available so CS3 can use CR 5.5 and Lightroom use CR 5.6???
Appreciate the input.

Do I understand this correctly ... that if I am using LR 2.6 and CS3, that when I go to Edit in CS3 from LR and the warning message about the Camera Raw versions being incompatible comes up, all I need to do is click on the tab for "Render in Lightroom" and it will open in CS3 with the Lightroom adjustments I made?  I have been struggling with this because I have been clicking on the tab that says "Open Anyway" and there are no adjustments when I get into CS3.  It has been very frustrating.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks and regards, Mary

  • Camera raw and Photoshop CS3 from Lightroom

    (2.5) If I open a raw image from Windows Explorer or Bridge (which I don't use much), Camera Raw 4.6 opens. It doesn't open if I Edit In Photoshop CS3 from Lightroom, but says "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 5.5 for full compatibility. Camera Raw version 4.6 is the latest version available for Photoshop CS3".
    There are two choices: Render using Lightroom and Open Anyway. If I say the former, it doesn't use the file name, but does something like -2.tif.
    I'm not sure what these two choices actually do.
    Secondly, if things were working properly, would Lightroom actually open the Camera Raw window? If so, is there anything I can do short of upgrading PS to CS4?
    Thanks.

    Just a little history of the profiles being displayed for your camera model. The camera calibration tab only displays the profiles that are specific to your camera and model. The earler profiles were named after the version of ACR that was in use when they were created.
    So.
    ACR 4.2 the first profile created for your camera model when support was introduced.
    ACR 4.4, Adobe created/ updated new profiles for most of the supported camera models with this release of ACR.
    Adobe Standard Beta, updated profile when the Beta of ACR 5.0 and LR 2.0 were introduced.
    Adobe Standard, Updated profile for the final release of ACR 5.0 and LR 2.0. This then is the latest profile created for your camera model. I think it should be the closest to your camera standard.
    Adobe did not create any other camera matching profiles Vivid, Neutral etc other than for the more popular Nikon and Canon models.  I have an Olympus so I am in the same boat.

  • Lightroom 3.2 and Camera Raw 6.2 final releases are available

    Lightroom 3.2 and Camera Raw 6.2 are now available as final releases on Adobe.com and through the update mechanisms available in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3.  These updates include additional lens profiles support among others. Check out http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/. Following the example of Adobe's collaboration with SIGMA, leading lens manufacturers such as Pentax, Tamron and Zeiss worked closely with Adobe to create some of the profiles.

    Excellent! Now if there were only a way to use my S95 in raw... I guess I'll have to wait another few months

  • How do I update photoshop CC camera raw to 8.4?

    How do I update Photoshop CC camera raw from 8.3 to 8.4? I keep getting an error message in Lightroom 5 that my camera raw plugin needs to be updated to 8.4.  thanx...Miriam

    I don't know anything about Lightroom, but CC is best updated via the Desktop Application Manager.  Unfortunately, that seems to be pretty flaky.  There was an update for the Desktop Application Manager just a few days ago, which fixed a problem I was having.   It only checks for updates once a day, so depending where you are in the world, you might not hear about an update for hours after other people.  You can bypass this delay by signing out, and back in again, which forces a scan and notifies you of available updates.
    In actual fact, ACR8.5 has just been released, but as a Release Candidate, and I don't think you get notified about RCs until they are released as full updates.
    BTW  It was interesting that you thought people would guess you are from Canada by way of your use of a French word.  Wikipedia says that French is the official language in 29 countries.  My first guess was that you were posting from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, or maybe even, (and this was just a guess) France!

    Hi All:
    based on the good work of Dorin above (post #19), he did a timeline of various releases of Lightroom from Adobe and it shows that from "version x RC" to "final release version" was around 1 month.
    as it is already exactly one month now, it must not be too much longer till they will release the LR2.3 Final Version.
    As for what Robert said in post #23, well, there's never any "guarantee" on a problem-free piece of software, or, for that matter, anything one purchases or anything in life, actually!! Yet, one can make educated extrapolations, right? From the range of comments thus far on LR2.3RC, it appears that it is the best version yet of LR2.x. This leads to the conclusion that it is probably a "good bet" that this version will likely lead to the least amount of issues, right? Maybe not "zero issues", but most likely, the least amount of issues from the various LR2.x versions available.
    So by waiting, say, merely 1-3 more weeks approximately, i can go directly from LR1.4 (which i've been using for many months) to LR2.3 Final Release Version. It seems like it is a prudent and conservative move or plan.
    What do the good folks here think, please?
    thanks in advance for helping me to mull this over. If i were a PC expert, i'd be thinking about this less. as i'm just a somewhat competent user, and not a whiz, i thought that a bit of care and planning it out intelligently can possibly reduce frustrations later.

  • PS/Bridge not recognizing raw files - HAVE updated DNG Converter & Camera RAW

    Had to re-install my Adobe CS3 due to hard drive crash.
    Now that I have re-installed, Photoshop & Bridge won’t recognize my raw files.
    I HAVE updated my Adobe Camera Raw (3 times in the last hour), and my DNG Converter (4 times in the last hour). Nothing works. Any ideas?

    If in photoshop cs3 you go to Photoshop>About Plug-in and click on the words Camera Raw, which version does it show?
    Since photoshop cs3 can only use up to camera raw 4.6 and the EOS 5D Mark II requires at least camera raw 5.2, cs3 won't open those files directly without some help.

    You could use the 8.7.1 dng converter to convert the files to dng copies which then bridge should see and photoshop cs3 should be able to open.

    Not at all.  I like good tools, and from everything I read Bridge is marvelous.  I don't have anything against Bridge, I just don't need it.
    As a computer engineer, I use my computer for WAY more than just Photoshop.  As such, I do everything I can to have the operating system (via Windows Explorer) integrate things for me.
    For example, via right-click or double-click or drag and drop onto icons:
    I access my configuration management system from Explorer (Tortoise SubVersion).
    I do searches (grepWin) from Explorer.
    I compare things (Beyond Compare) from Explorer.
    I start Photoshop and other image tools on raw and processed image files I manage with Explorer.
    I start my development tools (Visual Studio and a host of utilities) from Explorer (e.g., double click .sln files).
    I access my web sites with Explorer (via WebDrive).
    I get file paths from Explorer (right click, Send to Clipboard as Name).
    I access office management apps from Explorer (e.g., double click .doc or .xls files).
    This is an abbreviated list.  Explorer can be a VERY powerful integrator, and is at the center of my computing world at a higher level.  So now you can start to imagine why I prefer Explorer for image work.

    Here is a draft of my final release notes for working with Lightroom 3 and Camera Raw 5.7:
    Viewing Lightroom 3 settings in Camera Raw 5.7
    Before working in conjunction with Lightroom 3 and Camera Raw please set the Camera Raw preference to: Save image settings in: Sidecar ".xmp" files.  By default Camera Raw will display the image adjustments exactly as performed in Lightroom’s develop module.  However, at this time Camera Raw 5.7 is unable to support further adjustments to the following settings or tools:
    Highlight      Priority and Color Priority post-crop vignette
    Enhanced      Luminance and Color Noise Reduction
    Grain effects
    Process Version
    Lightroom is also dependent on a compatible version of the Camera Raw plug-in for the "Edit in Photoshop" functionality to work properly.  Camera Raw 5.7 will ensure that Lightroom 3 beta 2 will maintain that compatible functionality with Photoshop CS4.

    That seems to clarify the interoperability of ACR 5.7 and LR 3.  Thank you for that, Mr. Hogarty.
    Now, for the benefit of those of use who are not and/or will not be using Lightroom 3 for whatever reason, perhaps Mr. Chan or you can address the question of whether ACR 5.7 RC has a different or improved Noise Reduction functionality over that of ACR 5.6, and/or whether this will be the case for the final, GM release of ACR 5.7.  Let's leave any and all versions of LR out of the equation for a second, please.
    I think I see improved Noise Reduction in ACR 5.7 RC, but I wonder if this is real or whether I've just improved my skills in handling the noise reduction sliders since earlier versions. 
    Thanks.

  • I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D

    Hi,
    I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D
    Lightroom doesn't show a thumbnail image and when trying to import it says the camera format isn't supported. But normaly Camera raw 6.6 should cover the Canon eos 6D
    All help is welcome,
    Thanks

    No, the older versions are not free.  If you upgrade you will have to get Lr5 unless you can still find Lr4 for sale somewhere as it has been discontinued by Adobe.  You can also use the FREE DNG converter to convert the 6d files for use in Lr3.6.

    you can update ps cs5 manually:, http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    but you can only update to cr 6.7 and that camera needs 8.7 or better.
    your options are to upgrade your ps or use the dng converter, Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7

I Have several adobe programs and no clue where serial numbers are to even think about uninstalling all to reinstall, just to fix a plug in. Please help

    It's a bit of a work around, but you can uninstall PS CS6 [and perform a clean install / don't update the software afterwards for camera raw] and manually install the CR 8.2 update:

    Because something is wrong.  Most likely, either:
    (1) your Mac OS X Startup disk is damaged and you need to repair or reinstall OS X,
         - or -
    (2) you are not following the correct update workflow and should use the help from this Apple article. 
    For instance, if you are trying to update via  > Software Update..., restart Mac and download and install the Download Center version: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.04.

    Hello,
    Anyone else is getting "Pink Hue" in Preview (Quick Look and Preview app) for RAW images on OSX 10.8.4 after updating to Digital Camera RAW 4.08 ?
    The Thumbnails of the pictures are showing up fine, and I'm not facing this issue on my other Mac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 (MacBook Mid 2010).
    Thank you..

    UPDATE: I have contacted Apple Care, they asked me to delete RawCamera.bundle and RawCameraSupport.bundle  from /System/Library/CoreServices then install Digital Camera Raw 4.07 from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1666?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    RAW pictures are showing up normally now, it appears to be a bug. They sent a request of this to the engineering team.
