I know it is probably still a little early since it the camera just came out, but I wanted to find out when there will be an update to support the new Panasonic GH6 RW2 RAW image files?  I got my new Panasonic GH6 last week and wanted to see how the RAW photos look but I have currently no way of opening them and when I try to open them in the current version of Photoshop 2022 23.2.1, I get the message "Photoshop cannot open this file" and can oly open the JPGs from the camera.

Same problem here--I shoot RAW. I'm shocked panasonic didnt reach out to ADOBE before the release of their flaghship camera.

That's a question for Panasonic. Here's their support page:

On the latest Lumix Live stream on YouTube yesterday, I asked about the RAW image support for the GH6 since Abobe doesn't yet support the RAW files and Sean said that is to do with the companies that make the programs, Paansonic don't have any control over it, so it would seem we might just have to wait until Adobe bring an update out to support them. Whenever that will be.

This page lists the supported cameras. My guess based on Adobe's past performance is that support for your new camera will be available in a future update not too long from now.

Adobe does not announce a dates before they are ready to announce dates. Anyone who might know would be under NDA.

I didn't know about NDA, but I am hoping they bring out an update soon. I am suprirsed there isn't one yet since OM Digital Solutions OM SYSTEM OM-1 camera already has RAW support and that camera was just released a short time ago.
