anunes Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>Does anyone know why Photoshop CS4 is not able to open a s-RAW file generated by a 5DM2? Although its file name extension is CR2 like the standard Canon files, something is happening that I cannot open the files.<br>Thanks</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendel_leisk Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>New dslr models typically require an update to the raw processing software. The file extension may not have changed, but the "internals" of the file has. Check with Adobe.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith reeder Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>Out of interest - and to save unnecessary "rework" - what did you find out from Google before asking here?<br /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendel_leisk Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>One other thing, once Adobe Camera Raw has decided the file is not compatible, it might persist in this behaviour even after you apply the update. In this event you need to refresh the cache for that folder. That function's in one the pulldowns, I forget which.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_crist Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>I have Photoshop CS4 and a Canon 1D MKIII and can view and edit the SRAW files. I assume they are the same "design" files as the 5D2. I have Adobe Camera RAW version 5.3. Do you have the latest ACR version? </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anunes Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 <p>Steve, thanks the new ACR solved the problem.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliot1 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 <p>Nunes, I have found significant color variance betten full resolution and SRAW files. I suggest you take some test comparision shots before using the SRAW files.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkman Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 <p>I think Adobe does not fully support sRAW files yet, sometimes I get very strange artifacts and color shifts with LR 2.3 and sRAW files.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
