Hi,

I've just purchased the Canon 7D Mark II, connected it to my PC, but then found that Adobe Camera RAW doesn't support it yet. Any updates when this camera might be possibly supported?

Correct answer JP Hess

It has been indicated on this forum that the camera will be supported in the Camera Raw 8.7 final release. It is NOT supported in the release candidate that is available right now. No release dates, but presumably before the end of the year. Take note that Camera Raw 8.7 is only compatible with Photoshop CS6 (new camera support only) and Photoshop CC (complete support including new features).

Hoping this comes through fast. My workflow is really screwed until it does. The Canon software DPP has a function to send to Photoshop but it goes right to Photoshop, not the excellent Raw converter Adobe has. I miss clarity, vibrance etc in the conversion. I guess we pay a price for early adoption of the Mark II.

Have you tried saving TIF files using DPP, and then opening those in Lightroom? Not the perfect solution, I know. But a workaround until Camera Raw 8.7 is finally released.
