When I try to open a 5d MKII RAW file from Photo Mechanic in Photoshop by using (command “E”) I get a prompt saying “Photoshop does not recognize this type of file” I have a MAC, Photo Mechanic 4.6.1 and PS4 What do I need to do?

Only CS4 will open the RAW files from the Canon 5D Mark2. You can convert the RAW files to DNG files with Adobe's free converter. http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/ The older versions of Photoshop can read the DNG files and convert them to JPGs.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Top Menus>Help>Check for Updates should get you updated and running on the the latest build.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Turns out I did not have the latest version of Camera Raw and that did the trick. All is well..  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I did a head to head of the same .cr2 file from a MK II using lightroom, aperture, Adobe Raw and C1... C1 came out WAY ahead of the rest. Best color, noise and such. I think you can download a demo for 30 days if you want to try it. ~Adam  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
