PSCS2 and RAW images

[designs by krista]

I wanted to try shooting some RAW images and play around with them. So from what I read in my PS books I should be abe to double click the image and the Camera Raw window should open ~ when I double click the mage goes to open in PS(I am getting a dialog box for pixel height/width). So what am I doing wrong?

I'm pretty sure that's what mine was doing when I first tried it because I think the standard ACR that came with CS2 is too old to read the CR2 files that most of the Canon dSLRS now produce... try downloading the newest version from Adobe's site and see if it fixes it up - worked for me!

yup just find the plugin specific for your camera...should fix it all up!

I had to download the plug-in for PSE, and it worked perfectly. However, I've tried three times to download and install the correct plug-in for CS2, and it isn't working. I should probably contact Adobe, but I know I'm doing it right. Very frustrating!

If you have PSCS2 as part of the whole suite, you should also have Bridge. Open your images there and it will bring up the RAW box to work with.
