I just purchased a EOS 1D Mark II N and using CS and Win XP.

Apparently my version of CS does not support this camera RAW. Anyone have any thoughts on how to manage this without purchasing an update (I am licensed owner of CS) or using the Canon or any other RAW converter. I have been using the Adobe RAW converter when I was using my 20D and basically liked the workflow when I shot in RAW.

Thanks

Go to the Adobe site and download DNG Converter. That is free. DNG Converter will convert your CR2 files to DNG files (another RAW format) which can be opened by CameraRAW on Photoshop CS.

The Camera I bought is NOT supported by Adobe for version P/S CS since the camera came out AFTER the CS 2 was issued.

Either upgrade or play with some other RAW conversion.

I guess Adobe can be worse the Microsoft IMHO.

Thanks for the help

As Johan W. Elzenga pointed out, your camera IS supported by CS. In fact, every camera that can be supported by CS2 / ACR 3.3 can be supported by CS / ACR 2.4. And the means to do so is free.

Use the DNG route.


DNG is better than sliced bread.
DNG images don’t become toast.

Why do you ask a question if you do not read the answer anyway? I told you how you can make your camera supported, so read what I told you.

maybe that’s why CANON gives you their software to use with your camera? one poster here said it’s better than PS for processing RAW. Have you tried it??

I am playing with DPP and there is a learning curve. the DPP seems to load the images quicker and with a sharpness that ARC did not have. I also found that if I use Adobe’s DNG latest version, it does include my camera. The only problem is that it now is doubling the size of my file folder where I store the RAW image BUT I am able to use the ARC to start my workflow.
