  • Nikon D300 raw plug-in for CS2

    Posted by Roger Sherman on January 4, 2008 at 4:39 pm

    I just got the Nikon D300 and I use CS2. It was a shock to see there’s a RAW plug-in for CS3 but none for CS2. It’s a big hassle to convert images to DNG, and I’ve encountered corrupted DNGs after the convert, so I have to save both.

    Does anyone know if Adobe has plans to create a CS2 plug in?
    thanks!

    Simply update Camera Raw… it is independent of CS2 vs CS3

    thanks for your reply. do you have a link to update? i can’t find it and adobe says they haven’t created one: “With regards to your issue, I regret to inform you that we do not have a
    plug-in Nikon D300 for Photoshop CS2.”
    thanks so much.

    yes, i did that. i have 3.7.0 which is the latest raw update for CS2. 4.3.0 is for CS3. 3.7 does not work with the d300 raw files. i have to convert them to dng. is your experience different?

    Wish I had that camera to have experience

    I’d download Camera Raw and make sure I had the latest (try installing the CS3 version)

    If that doesn’t work.. then you may have to upgrade… Hardware often drives software updates.

    CS3 is a great update with a ton of workflow enhancemens that will pay for app in fiust week of use.

    I have the same problem. It is my understanding that Adobe does not plan to provide an updated plug-in that is compatible with CS2. In order to get a plug-in that works with the D300, I was told that I needed to upgrade to CS3 or switch to Elements. I have a trial version of both and the plug-in does work for the D300 RAW with both of these software programs. I like Bridge, that comes with Photoshop CS, much more than the organizer that comes with Elements. Does anyone know if the bridge from my Photoshop CS2 can be made to work with Elements?
