Reading .CS2 files from Canon EOS 40D to Photoshop.CS Ver. 8.0

I have take pictures of a painting with a Canon EOS 40D for future printing onto canvas for resale.
I have Photoshop.CS version 8.0 which is not able to read the .cs2 files ("Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document")
I downloaded Camera_RAW_3.7.zip (Camera Raw.8bi - Jan. 30,2007) from Adobe and put it in the c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats directory
I tried accessing the .cs2  files with the same results. (Note: there was also an old Camera Raw.8BI (Oct. 13,2003) file in the c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats directory which I removed to another directory)
I then downloaded, installed an Adobe DNG Converer 9.0 and converted the images files from .cs2 to .dns.
I tried accessing the .dns files with Photoshop.CS version 8 with no success: ("Could not complete your request because this version of Photoshop does not supply the services required by this plug-in module")
Any other ideas?
We need to prepare this image soon with Photoshop.CS to have it printed on canvas for sale to a customer.
Thanks

First of all, photoshop cs can only use up to camera raw 2.4, so you need to remove all the other camera raw 8bi plugins and install the camera raw 2.4 plugin for photoshop cs.
(you can only have one Camera Raw.8bi plugin in the photoshop plugins folder or photoshop doesn't know which one to use)
Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Camera Raw 2.4 update
The Camera Raw.8bi should go in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats (64 bit windows system)
or
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats (32 bit windows system)
Then you can use the dngs you converted using adobe dng converter 9.0 in photoshop cs.
It's possible you may have to set the compatibility in the dng converter Preferences to Camera Raw 2.4 and later when converting the canon 40d files to dng in order for photoshop cs to read them.
Sample canon 40d file downloaded and then converted to dng used in below screenshot came from here:

  • Photoshop CS5.1 won't read raw files from Canon EOS M

    Photoshop cs5.1 won't read raw files from canon eosM, what to do?

    The EOS M requires at least Camera Raw 7.2 but Raw 7.2 is only compatible with CS6 or higher (CS5 is only compatible up to Raw 6.7)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    To open and edit Raw files, either upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud and get the CC version.
    Alternatively convert the Raw files from the EOS M to DNGs using the free DNG converter then edit the DNGs in CS5.1

  • Reading RAW files from Canon EOS 550D

    I take pictures in RAW and process them with Elements 8.  I had no problems when using a Canon EOS 1000D but now that I am using a 550D Elements is not reading the files.  It is not just that it will not open them - it does not even read them as files.
    I know that the camera is capturing good files, and that they are transfering to the computer because I can read them with the Canon utility Digital Photo Professional.
    What do I need to do in order to get Elements to recognise my files?

    I purchased PSE8 and installed it then ran the download 5.7 and discovered it still does not work by putting the Camera Raw.8bi file into the Photoshop Elements 8.0 Plug ins file as detailed on Adobe's instructions. It still would not import the raw files.  I then discovered another method through another helpful thread to place it as follows:
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 8\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi
    This works!  The only downside is that when you open the editor from the organiser you get a bad command box saying that it does not like the Camera Raw.8bi file in this location, but if you ignore this message it still proceeds to open the editor and you can proceed as normal. I have tried to put the Camera Raw.8bi into the other Plug-In files to see if it behaves better without any luck, so if anyone has any further ideas to stop this bad command box then everything will be as it is meant to be!
    To be honest this update has been available for months so its also up to Adobe to pull their finger out and get it corrected because they are still giving the same instructions for newer updates as well.
    I hope this helps somebody !!

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

    You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>

  • 1080p30 .mov files from canon eos 5DMarkII in Final cut express 4.0.1

    Hi everybody.
    i need some help to import HD vidéo .mov files from Canon Eos 5DMarkII in final cut express.
    The files is in 1080p30 (h264) like avchd but in the final cut configuration i have only 50i and 60i option in HDV and AVCHD
    Final cut necessity to do a render (5h for 15min on my G5) and the movement quality is not the same.
    Anybody have a idea to import Progressive files in final cut ?
    maybe they have an update with new avchd 1080p codec in configuration ?
    or i need final cut pro...?
    Thanks in advance
    and sorry for my english...i'm french

    There is no good solution for working with this camera in FCE. It's 30fps progressive. There is no true video format that is 30fps. This is something Canon was cobbled together for this stills camera.
    You can use MPEG Streamclip to convert the material to QuickTime using the Apple Intermediate Codec at 1920x1080. I think that's what it shoot. You should check the camera manual to confirm it shoots 1920 and not 1440.
    The problem is the frame rate. You can convert it to 29.97fps or to 25fps. 25fps conforms to the European frame rate, but I don't know how well Streamclip will do this conversion. You also need to make sure the material is not interlaced by Streamclip.
    The other problem is that FCE handles 1080 as an interlaced format, because for production it's supposed to be an interlaced format, at least in the formats, HDV and AVCHD, that FCE works with. You can set your sequence properties to have no field dominance, which should prevent it interlacing during compositing of any effects.

  • How can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    how can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    You can download the 7.1 DNG converter to make copies of your canon raw files in the adobe dng format, which can then be opened in pse 9.
    As said above the the latest camera raw plugin 6.5 for pse 9 won't open those files directly, but will open the the converted dng files.

  • Reading raw files from Canon 70D

    I have Photoshop Elements 11 and just got a Canon 70D. How can I get the program to read the raw files?

    Jo_vdh wrote:
    if I understand correctly, the only way to open the CR2 files from canon 70D is upgrade to PSE12.
    No. Adobe offer the free DNG converter that will convert those CR2 files to Adobe's DNG RAW format that can be opened in PSE11, or pretty much any version of PSE going back five or more years.
    Jo_vdh wrote:
    it's already kind of worthless.
    The Organizer and the Editor still do everything they did when you bought the product and Adobe provide a continuing solution to enable RAW processing in older versions of the software so I don't see how it has suddenly become worthless?
    And noting that you bought it the month after PSE12 was released I hope you got it heavily discounted.

  • Can Aperture 3 read Raw files from Canon G1X?

    Is Aperture 3 capable of reading Raw files from a Canon G1X?
    I'm currently using an elderly version of IPhoto, having resisted upgrading because of negative feedback about the latest version. My IPhoto version cannot read the Raw files from the G1X. I also tried importing one into Picassa, but the colours looked completely wierd.
    I'm now considering buying Aperture 3 but will maybe wait until:
    a. Aperture 4 is released and;
    b. I know that Aperture can indeed read the Raw files from the G1X.
    Any help/advice gratefully received.
    Frank P

    see this list:
    Aperture 3: Wide raw support for leading cameras:
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    Your camera is supported by Aperture 3.
    P.S. and the camera is supported by MacOS X 10.7.4.,
    see: OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757
    What is your MacOS version? Perhaps upgrading to 10.7.4 should make the raw support available in iPhoto too.

  • Aperture does not support Small Raw files from Canon EOS 5D MK II

    Hi,
    I recently bought a new Canon EOS 5D MK II camera and started shooting on SmallRaw format, but Aperture simply refused to process those files. It only shows a preview of around 3 inches only. I don't know what's wrong either with my OS 10.5.6 or Aperture 2.
    Now that I've returned to Digital Photo Professional from Canon to process the image. Please help, I don't want to break my workflow.

  • CR2 files from Canon EOS 7D

    I am attempting to download pictures from my Canon EOS 7D and it will download only 2 of the 111 I hae on the memory card and claims the ramining 109 are in an incompatible CR2 format.  The two pictures it is downloading are also in the same CR2 file format & I've used this same exact camera half a hundred times to download into iPhoto using exclusively the CR2 RAW format (most recently as of last night & it worked just fine then), so I can't figure out why all the sudden it's refusing to work.  Anybody have any ideas on a fix?
    Note: I have iPhoto version 9.5.1 & OSX 10.9.2.  Both fully upgraded.

    It ould be a glitch on the card.
    Can you access them with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder)?

  • ICan I update Lr3 to recognize RAW files from Canon EOS T5?

    I just got a Canon EOS Rebel T5 and now I find out that Lightroom 3 doesn't recognize it's CR2 (RAW) files.
    The link below states that Lr 5.4 is the minimum Lr version required to read these files.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    My question is, is there a way to update my Lr3 settings for free to recognize the T5's CR2 files?
    I can't afford to purchase the update for Lr5....
    Thanks!

    You need Lightroom 5.4 or later
    OR
    you need to download the free Adobe DNG Converter version 5.4 or later, and use that program to convert your RAWs to DNGs and then import the DNGs into Lightroom

  • Problems loading RAW files from Canon EOS 70D

    I've recently changed my camera from an EOS 500D to a 70D and now find that I can't open the RAW files even though my Photoshop says it's up-to-date when queried through Creative Cloud.  However, when I check the Camera RAW version used in PhotoShopCC 2014 it's 8.0.0.137.  I tried to find and download the recommended version 8.2 but all that gave me was provide me with a DNG converter, which didn't help.  I contacted Adobe chat line but part-way through lost the connection and I can't re-establish it again to complete the process their operative was taking me through.
    Has anyone got any ideas about how to fix this?  By the way the files open fine in Lightroom 5.5.

    Thanks for taking the time to reply, that was kind of you.
    I managed to solve the problem by going to Adobe Labs and downloading and installing a beta version of Camera RAW 8.6, it works a treat.

    Let's get into a little more detail.
    The moniker ".mov" doesn't really mean much. It means "a movie that QT can play back" - a very generic statement. Saying that a movie is a QuickTime movie is saying nothing of the underlying codec. You might have a hundred movie files with the ending ".mov" and they could all be using different codecs like: Motion Jpeg, DV, XDCam, DVCPro, DVCPro HD, H.264 and so on.... So to answer the question, "...Does the fact that it is already an .mov file make it more of a drag and drop thing?" The answer is, No. Here's why:
    The 5D (and 7D) shoot a ".mov" file, yes. But specifically it's of the H.264 flavor. This is a burdensome codec. It's processor intensive. It's not meant for editing, it's meant for delivery. Furthermore, if there are going to be advances with it's native editability it's going to happen at the happen on hardware and software that are of the most current standards. And besides, that's still a big if.
    There are no current machines that have true drag-drop-edit (without pain) the raw Canon .mov files. If you're thinking your current computer can't handle "hi-def footage" then it most certainly won't handle the (HD) camera native files. That doesn't mean you can't edit the footage. You'll just be back to what's been mentioned before: transcoding. You can always transcode to the highest quality codec that your Mac can handle and edit in that format. DVCPro HD? DV, at least! Don't know - whatever your machine can handle.
    Summary: Native 5D camera files ---> FCP = painful, even with newest hardware/software. Rule is transcode. This is the only way people are efficiently working with this footage right now.
    Footage Quality - it's quite nice! There's tons of video all over Vimeo with it now. It's a great concept that will only get better. Snoop around here too. There are tons of sample footage on the web. It is highly compressed though. All that info, and with tiny files, the information is going someplace! Being discarded. Learning to maximize an environment's given conditions will lead to minimizing the camera's inherent artifacts.
    The next question to ask yourself is do you want this camera mostly for the HD movie mode or photography? The new 7D has some compromises compared to the 5D but has some things that the 5D doesn't, yet. Like framerates. The 5D is, for now, strictly 30P, while the 7D sports 24P, 25P 30P and 50P & 60P at 720P (instead of the full 1920x1200).
    Hopefully that answers some questions regarding FCP dealing with the native camera files. Other than that: 5D or 7D? Both have some worthwhile merits to consider.

  • Preview in OSX 10.7.5 does not recognize RAW files from Canon EOS 6D

    What must I do so that I can see downloaded RAW photos from my new Canon 6D in "Preview" in my iMac's OSX 10.7.5?  Preview does show photos from my earlier Canons fine.  My older version of Aperture can open the 6D's files, as can, of course, Photoshop.

    I could be mistaken, but I believe that Preview does not support RAW - only Aperture, a newer iPhoto version, and third party software will handle it. Does your Canon come with the Digital Photo Professional software from Canon? That should be compatible with RAW as well.
    Mountain Lion appears to have more compatibilities:
