Default RAW File Support

Hi,

I'm new to digital photography and am still finding my way. I've got a
Canon 350D and am using Photoshop 7. Is there any way I can get RAW
file support on this version of Photoshop either using Canon's RAW
format or converting to DNG?


You'll probably have to go through DNG. Adobe doesn't update old
versions of the Camera Raw plugin, so if the camera came out after the
version of Photoshop you're out of luck for direct converstion.

Make sure you have the latest ACR for that version of photoshop, and if
that doesn't work, go via DNG.

However, you can always download the *latest* DNG converter, which
supports newer cameras, and convert the raw to DNG, and then the older
ACR will convert the DNG to an image.
