Hello,
I have just bought a Canon 500D this week and am devastated to find that my Raw files will not open in CS3. Is there a solution? No way can I buy CS4.
The instructions for others on the Forum with, for instance, the 450D frighten me. Any advice really appreciated.

Not really sure what you mean, but as I said these are Canon RAW files - CR2 from my 500D. Those from my 350D opened fine but I see other people have the same problem

Hi,
i have got the 500D and CS3
Download DNG converter 5.4 from the adobe website. It does actually convert to DNG format despite what it says on the website. You must put you raw files into a folder and then drag the folder onto the DNG converter icon. It will not process an individual file from the desktop.
Hope this helps.

If you have a MAC. Use your iPhoto program. Drop the images into iPhoto and then select them and select File/Export and decide what you want to convert to.
