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? Many thanks |

The Adobe site will supply an appropriate plug-ib if it's available. It will also list which version will accept which plug-ins. John |

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. |

The question is, does it have Adobe Camera Raw, and does the latest ACR available for it support DNG? I'm quite confident those things are true of Photoshop CS. |

While Adobe limits which versions of Photoshop can use the latest versions the Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) plug-in, they have been much more generous with Photoshop Elements. The latest version of ACR is 3.6 and it works with Elements versions 3, 4, and 5. If you buy Elements 5, it will cost you about US $80, less on a good sale. ACR 3.6 was released in October 2006, so it handles all cameras available before about September 2006. ACR 3.6 is available on www.adobe.com which will list supported camera. |
