Cannot open the Canon 6 d Raw files in CS5. [was: Camera Raw / Photoshop is not compatible]

Hello

I just upgraded from a Canon 1000 d with a Canon 6 d, during shooting in raw and try to open it with photoshop, it says the camera raw is not compatible and it uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file, I never had problems with my 1000 d. I have photoshop CS5 and have tried to update, but it still does not work. Someone knows how to fix this? I'm a photography student and my deadline is in 2 weeks, so I really need to get to this sorting asap! Advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

It uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file

CR2 is not a fixed file format. It varies with each camera model that make cannon. It is the same for all the camera manufacturers.

New camera, new file Raw, same Raw file extension format model (CR2 = Canon, NAVE = Nikon, etc.).

Devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw

Camera Raw plugin and Adobe application compatibility

The 1000 d is supported in Camera Raw 5.1 and later - compatible with CS4 and later. CS5 can open these Raw files.

The 6 d is supported in Camera Raw 7.3 and later - compatible with CS6 and later. CS5 cannot open these Raw files.

RAW support is never added retroactively to older versions of the Adobe software you will never be able to open files 6 d Raw in CS5.

Options:

  1. Join the Cloud (Plan of photography) and get Photoshop CC 2015 + Lightroom CC 2015 for $10 / month (as long as your computer can run)
  2. Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the 6 d to DNG Raw files, then change the DNG files in CS5. An extra step for you, but no extra costs.
