Questions

The reflection removal tool in Camera Raw was working beautifully until the last Beta update. Now it takes a minute and does...nothing. I've enabled AI technology previews, reinstalled etc, but nothing seems to make any difference.

I am using a DNG file for the first time in ACR. I have created changes using brush masks in ACR which disappear when I use Open to take the amended DNG into PS. I can find no way of transfering the changes made into. Reopening the DNG in ACR shows the masks and the subsequent changes.I have also used the ACR save function and the resultant image doesn't have my changes. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

This post is to collect in-app customer feedback from Camera Raw for the Technology Preview of the Generative Expand feature.    Generative Expand seamlessly blends the edges of your existing image with newly generated content that naturally fits into the background without taking away from your photo’s original subject. Some use cases for Generative Expand are: Expand the canvas for images that were accidentally cropped  Fill in the edges of a panorama  Adjust the aspect ratio of a photo for social media    This feature is currently a Technology Preview, and we are still working to ensure it meets your needs. We'd love to hear what it does well, what it doesn't do well, and how you'd like it to work.    Please also include the following details in your post:  Camera raw version System details Example image(s) if you wish to share   Our team continually monitors this thread.

Hi everyone. Not a 'Newbie' but neither a 'hot-shot'.Due to my age, I have passed all my Canon 'stuff' to my youngest son. (5D MkIII / 1DX and a bunch of  'L' glass) and have switched to a Sony Alpha 6400 body and a couple of e-fit Sony lenses which are a physical relief! All that said, I still love the Canon 24-105mm f4 L and use it on the Sony with an EF/E-fit adaptor.My question.Is it possible to / how do I  save the lens profiles in the 'Optics / Profile Corrections' area of ACR when using the Canon lenses and having manually selected them them from the drop-down menus.

I have camera-specific presets in Raw Defaults. Those include Denoise being active.   When I load CR3 files into ACR via Bridge, the Denoise box is checked but it has NOT been calculated or applied. If I drag the slider or type into the amount box or uncheck and recheck Denoise, THEN it is calculated and applied.   There is a visible difference once Denoise runs, no .acr file beforehand, and Denoise takes about 45 seconds per image so its pretty obvious. The preset is posted below.   ACR 17.5.0.2318 Intel MacBook Pro w/AMD Radeon Pro 5300M Sequoia 15.6   <x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="Adobe XMP Core 7.0-c000 1.000000, 0000/00/00-00:00:00 "> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:crs="http://ns.adobe.com/camera-raw-settings/1.0/" crs:PresetType="Normal" crs:Cluster="" crs:UUID="D8F6569CF9844FC5A9CA60016B353ED2" crs:SupportsAmount2="True" crs:Suppor

I recently installed Adobe Bridge 2026 on an iMac. It is a new account, I have no previous purchases or installations of Adobe products on this account or this computer. It says Camera Raw is not enabled when I click on Edit in the Bridge tool bar but when I double click on a raw image, it opens in Camera Raw 17.5.1 and the edits are fully functional. How did Camera Raw get there and will it remain? I repeat, I do not have LR or Photoshop or any other Adobe apps. I checked my account, it does not show any purchases or installations other than Bridge. Is it possible Adobe has included Camera Raw on a trial basis, although that wouldn't make any sense as Camera Raw is not stand alone. Confused!   [Moved from the CC Desktop forum by moderator]

I've updated to Bridge 2026 with ACR 18 on MacOS Tahoe 26.0.1 I can adjust images to HDR just fine as in prior versions (Bridge 2025 and ACR 17), but now when exporting in HDR mode it saves the .avif file in SDR instead.  Tried the following:1) Reverted back to Bridge 2025 and ACR 17. Same result.2) Deleted  ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw as per this discussion: https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-discussions/acr-fails-to-export-avif-hdr-files/td-p/14820248 ; this worked back in 2024 when this bug happened, but not now. Neither in Bridge 2026 nor Bridge 2025 ACR 18. 

The following video is a demo of the CPU usage of the latest version of Adobe Denoise AI on Windows 11. There is something strange in that Adobe Camera Raw runs the CPU in the high +90% for a long time after all the Denoise work is done. If you have ACR Version 17 with Technology Preview enabled, please run a similar test and report if you see the same strange CPU usage. Video at: https://www.arkacy.com/Other/Temp-Upload/n-5RJTN/i-v67pfCT/A Related thread on DPReview: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4784646#forum-post-68019063 Related thread on Adobe Camera Raw Forum: https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-discussions/p-technology-preview-enhance-denoise-super-resolution-raw-details/td-p/14856090 

I've been looking to test out the new dust removal feature in Camera Raw and couldn't find it. Turns out, the entire "Distraction Removal" section is missing from my Camera Raw app. I've gone into settings and enabled "New AI features" as directed in many instructional guides. Restarted Photoshop, and it's still not present. I even tried downloading the latest Photoshop beta (26.11), and I don't have this section at all. What am I doing wrong? I've screenshot the relevant sections for visual aid. Versions:Photoshop 26.9Windows 11 24H2Snapdragon X Elite PC

This is an update to the previous Mac Radeon GPU bug. Just an FYI, I don't realistically expect a solution from either Apple or Adobe. 16" 2019 Intel MacBook ProAMD Radeon Pro 5300M/4GB16GB system RAMTahoe 26.0.1ACR 18.0.0.2389 I am still seeing the intermittent GPU issues that were first reported in macOS Sonoma, where the ACR document window shows distorted or black images of RAW files. It doesn't happen often, but popped up again yesterday when I had four Canon RAW files (2 CR2, 2 CR3) open. The fix is to restart the computer, presumably this is a memory problem in the GPU. Beyond this, Tahoe and Adobe CC are working as expected without major issues. Performance has not changed appreciably from Ventura->Sonoma->Sequoia->Tahoe or with new CC versions.

Constant error, Windows 10, nvisia 3060TX, all drivers updated, can't use the software, have checked the video card out, appears to be working perfectly.

When using camera raw it starts to slow down after editing a couple of images then finally freezes, after restarting raw and photoshop it;s back to working well, then starts to slow down again.I've reset everything,  I think I've done everything that I've found to be suggested, can you help please?

There is a new masking feature in Adobe Camera Raw 18.0 called depth range. It is only supported if the photo contains depth info. What cameras generate raw files that contain depth information?The depth range is greyed  out for raw files from my Nikon Z7II. Lens blur works.

Photoshop Version: 24.1.1Camera Raw Version: 15.1.1Windows: 10 Home 19044.2486 When you try to use camrea raw filter, it "opens" but the camrea raw filter window does not show. You cant do anything in photoshop and you must press esc a couple times in order to use photoshop again. Reinstalling photoshop, and resetting all settings, including the raw camrea filter settings did not work.  How to replicate bug:1.Open or create any document size or mode.2.Open Camera Raw Filter3. Screen does nothing, you must then press esc to use photoshop.

Hello all, I've been using Photoshop and Camera Raw for around a year.  I'm just doing a basic workflow that a friend taught me, as I'm a bit of a novice.  I take bird photos with OM Systems OM-1 and 300mm f4 PRO. My starting point is to process the .ORF (RAW) file in Camera Raw, and click the Auto button.  I found this generally made a great improvement, but quite often I had to correct the Exposure.  Apart from this I would sometimes adjust Shadows & Highlights, adjust Whites and Blacks, then do Denoise and Sharpening.  At this point a .DNG file was created, and I clicked Open to make further adjustments in Photoshop (usually just cropping and sometimes to remove a distracting feature).  Generally I was very pleased with the results. However, this changed around August this year, with the Camera Raw update to 17.4 (I think).  There were changes to the dialogue, and now it saves the edits in a .acr file, and it doesn't automaticall

This post applies only to Camera Raw.  Announcing a new feature in Adobe Camera Raw (17.4) – Color Variance   There is now a Variance slider in the Point Color edit controls, in both global Point Color and masking Point Color.   Like the Point Color Hue, Saturation, and Luminance sliders, Variance works on the colors in the range of the current sample. Reducing Variance pulls colors in the range toward the sampled color; increasing Variance pushes colors in the range away from the sampled color. Variance pays attention to the HSL edits you've made to the sample; it's pushing away from or pulling toward the "after" color - the right side of the color bar above the sliders. You can make the slider adjustments in any order (HSL edits first or Variance edits first), and the results will be the same.   Reducing Variance is useful for evening out skin tones: sample an area of the skin that looks like you want it to, and then reduce the variance to pull the colors in the s

If i have Photo with portrait orientation then i crop it to landscape orientation and save, ACR embeds preview in DNG that is portrait orientation and it shows incorrectly (+90°rotated).  

Hello ! I apologize in advance for any mistakes, I'm writing using Google Translator. I've been having problems with Camera Raw for about 2 weeks, especially when I work with masks or denoise photos. there are messages about lack of memory, etc. I have had the computer for less than a year. I've never had any problems. I7 13700kf ram 32gb nvidia gforce rtx4070 card. In photoshop, help, GPU compatibility is ok. Same in preferences: PS or camera raw. everything is fine. The latest studio driver is on the card and I don't know why there are still problems. I would like to uninstall all applications and install them again, but I don't want to make a mistake and do something wrong. Can someone give me some advice, step by step, on where to look for the problem. Thank you and best regards
