Photoshop CS & RAW files from a Sony A300 dslr ARW file

[booth...@hotmail.com]

Hi

I know CS2 does not accept RAW files, but there is a download that
you
can get. Adobe do not appear to have a plugin foe CS2. CS3 onwards
yes.

Running Vista sp1. Sony only has a raw plugin for Windows

Can anyone help

Thanks in advance

it most certainly does.

you need camera raw 4.4.1 or later. camera raw 4.x works with cs3 and
5.x works in cs4.

for photoshop cs2 and earlier, you can use adobe's dng converter to
convert the raw to dng and then edit the raw that way.

or you can use a variety of other software that supports the camera.

You might try ufraw - it's usually quite up to date and allows basic
editing along with the conversion.

This website explains how to use the latest camera's RAW with older
photoshop versions by using the dng converter.
