Opening CR2 (Canon 5D RAW files) in Photoshop CS

hello,
i have a canon 5d and am trying to open them with the original Photoshop CS. Is this impossible? Is there no plug-in that is compatible with this older version and the CR2 files? thanks for your help.

thanks for the info john. i downloaded DNG converter and converted an image. however, when i tried to open it in photoshop it would not allow me to because it is "not the right kind of document". does photoshop cs perhaps not support .dng files? any other ideas?

  • How do I process Canon G15 Raw files in Photoshop CS5?

    Hi - I have Photoshop CS5 and I'm having trouble processing Canon G15 Raw files. I downloaded the most recent Camera Raw converter but it didn't seem to wrong. I suspect I'm doing something wrong in the installation process. Thanks!!

    The G15 needs Adobe Camera Raw version 7.3 or higher. Unfortunately CS5 can’t be updated beyond ACR 6.7. But it is possible to download and install the free DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will open in CS5 (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • How to open Canon 6D Raw files in Photoshop 7.0? [was: CR2 Files]

    why  did my Photoshop 7.0 stop opening CR2 files

    Photoshop 7 is only compatible with Camera Raw 1.0.
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?
    To open, Raw files from the Canon 6D you need Photoshop CS6, CC or CC 2014. Adobe no longer sells CS5 or earlier.
    Or, you can download the free Adobe DNG converter
    Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
    Use that to convert all Raw 6D files to DNGs then try opening the DNGs in Photoshop 7.

  • CAN NOT OPEN  CANON EOS20D  RAW FILE IN PHOTOSHOP CS2

    I had Photoshop CS2 installed on my PC some years ago and could open my raw files from my canon eos 20d. I changed the hard drives in my pc to solid state drives and had to reinstall photoshop cs2. I could not activate photoshop as it was too old a version so I had to download from adobe website with their activation code. Now, I can not open any of my canon eos 20d files. I have taken some now photos just a few days ago and the problem still arises. I get the message that it does not recognise this type of file. Any ideas?

    You downloaded, extracted (unzipped) the Camera_Raw_3_7.zip and copied/moved the Camera Raw.8bi to
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS2 (windows 64 bit system)
    or

  • Can I open Nikon D600 Camera RAW files in Photoshop CS5 Extended?

    We've got CS5.5 and a new D600. The NEF (RAW) files will not display. I've downloaded the DNG converter (7.2) as a workaround but it's not great. Spoke with Apple and they say I'll have to upgrade to CS6, which in turn will mean upgrading the OS on this Mac which will in turn require a new computer. All this to get a version of the ACR Plugin that works. OUTRAGEOUS!!

    Sorry, but the D600 is not supported by Photoshop CS5.1, support for it was only added in CS6 with ACR 7.2. What kind of computer do you have?
    If you (understandibly) don't want to get a new computer, it might make sense to use Lightroom to do your RAW editing, and then open them in Photoshop if you so need.

  • Canon 6D raw files in Photoshop CS6

    I can't open raw files from my 6D in Photoshop CS6, and the "update" option under the HELP drop-down menu is dimmed out. I've got the .dng application and can use that, but there's got to be an easier way, doesn't it?

    Photoshop CS6 can use Camera Raw 8.x plug-ins, so you could conceivably get one of these two:
    The 8.3 release:

    You need to upgrade to get camera support for your model.PSE9 is quite old. PSE13 is the latest version.Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)

  • Canon G11 RAW files in Photoshop 7.0

    Good evening.  I have just bought a new Canon G11 camera and have an old  version of Photoshop [7.0].  Will it be possible to download a patch that will allow the program to read the RAW files or am I just out of luck with such a new camera and such old software? If so, any "band-aid" solutions?  Many thanks for any advice. Have a good TG w/e. .

    You will have to convert them to DNG files.  Depending on how new the camera is Adobe may still have to write the conversion.  Might check the support site to see what cameras are supported as of today.  Also, can check the ACR forum as see what they know.
    Good luck.

  • How to open Canon T5i Raw files in Photoshop? [was: need help]

    I have purchased CS5 quit some time ago. I recently got a Canon T5I and CS5 doesn't recognize the files. But Light room does. So talked to Canon they say it is an Adobe issue. So downloaded the DNG converter 7.4 and it doesnt recognize the files either. So i thought i would up grade to the Photoshop CC but it wont install correctly either.

  • Can't open some Canon D60 RAW files

    Hi to all!
    I have an issue with RAW fles. Most of the files is readable and can be edited but small percent of the files is not. Seems like problem with OS X 10.4.8 because neather Preview or iPhoto wan't accept this files too.
    Thank you for help

    I have this issue too.
    I have a bunch of D60 files that can't be opened at all although they open fine in any other raw convertor.
    Converting them to DNG may help though. Somehow they open fine then...
    I'm going to file a bugreport and upload a couple of sample files.

  • Can't open Canon 70D raw files with elements 12

    Can anyone advise me why elements 12 will not open my Canon 70D raw files?  When I have tried to update elements it tells me that there are no updates available. The Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw plugin is version 8.0.0.137

    The Canon 70D was first supported in Camera Raw 8.2.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    EOS 70D
    CS2
    8.2
    5.2
    Camera Raw 8.5 should be available for Elements 12 via Help > Updates
    Photoshop elements 12 and camera raw 8.5
    If you have windows XP, Vista or Mac OS X 10.6.8 you won't get the camera raw 8.5 update, because it doesn't work on those operating systems.
    In that case you should be able to update to Camera Raw 8.3

  • Unable to open Canon 7D CR2 raw files in Photoshop CS6

    Hi Folks,
    I have been trying to open Canon 7D CR2 raw files in Photoshop CS6 (Extended) (Windows 8.1) but I'm always getting the error "Could not complete your request because the file format module cannot parse your file".
    I installed the Camera Raw plugin ver 8.8.0.397 today. Did this initially by downloading and running the CameraRaw_8_8.zip available here Camera Raw plug-in installer. Still got the error.
    Went and did the Check Updates in Photoshop and updated the Camera Raw (and other components) but STILL cannot open the CR2 files.
    I can see the thumbnails in Bridge but when I double click to open them in Photoshop, same error.
    Cannot seem to get past the "Could not complete your request..." error.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers,
    Doug...

    Hi Folks,
    Thanks for your replies and assistance so far, very much appreciated. Its a very frustrating problem... this should be one of those things that just work.
    I have uploaded two sample pics taken with my canon 7d. If you get a chance, could you please try opening these images to see if they work on your machine.

    I have tried opening them on both my office and home computer but neither of them work.
    Hmmm... could it have anything to do with the lens (Canon Macro Lens EF  100mm1:2.8 USM)
    Many thanks!
