Digital Rebel XT and Photoshop RAW Help! - GoFuckYourself.com

Dusen · 07-18-2005, 09:19 AM

I only purchased photoshop CS a few months ago before CS2 came out. Now Adobe is telling me I have to UPGRADE to use the camera raw feature with my Digital Rebel XT?

Has anyone done this successfully with CS (1) ? Help! I'm lost and annoyed.

Well after talking with an engineer there is no other option. I got a discounted upgrade and it's on the way - but you know..

I am one of those people who ALWAYS buy licenses for my software. I don't judge people who pirate programs, it's just something I don't do. But It seems lately I keep getting jaded about situations like this.

I could have had a nice night in a hotel for the girlfriend and I, but instead I paid to upgrade a product I bought 4 months ago.

But don't get me wrong. Photoshop is a fantastic product and worth every cent.

you can dowload the latest digital camera raw file support from http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html

3.1 is supposed to support your camera. its a free plug in and easy to install

Yeah, I saw that but CS(1) doesn't support camera raw 3.0+

CS2 only.

damn, I would love to be able to work on my XT raw images in photoshop, but I only have CS, not CS2

I wonder if the CS2 update work for CS?

The canon software lets me do basic photo changes, hue, saturation, brightness, contrast... yatta yatta. But no real editting or anything.

So I have to load up the canon software, convert the raw to a tiff or jpg and then load it up into photoshop aftwards.

Kinda sucks

I use an older Digital Rebel and Photoshop CS had no problem with the raw images. Maybe this is different with the Rebel XT. You know that there are at least two or possibly three different versions of the Canon interface software? Check the Canon site and maybe the newer version will work.
