    Unfortunately, photoshop elements 2024 ships with camera raw 15.5 (after one clicks install camera raw) and you need camera 16.0 or higher for your Lumix G9M2.

    https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

     

    Maybe pse 2024 will get updated to camera raw 16.0, but who knows, so in the meantime you could install camera raw 16.0 yourself by following the below instructions:

     

     

    Find out how to update the Camera Raw version on your Windows or Mac machine.

    Note:
     

    The following is a workaround to update Camera Raw within Elements. It is recommended to wait for Camera Raw updates within the product for issue fixes. 

    Windows

    If you haven't been able to update the Camera Raw plug-in for Elements in Windows, follow these steps:

    1. Download and install the latest Camera Raw version from the https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html

    2. Quit all Adobe applications.

    3. Double-click the downloaded .zip file to unzip it. (Windows might unzip the file for you.)

    4. Double-click the resulting .exe file to start the installer.

    5. Follow the on-screen instructions.

    6. Once installed successfully, close the installer window.

    7. Navigate to the following folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC\File Formats

    8. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in i.e., Camera Raw.8bi file, from the CC > File Formats folder that is mentioned in the above step.
       

       

       

    9. Navigate to the following folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements<Version Number>\File Formats, where the version number stands for the Product Internal Version number.

      For further information, see Adobe Photoshop Elements & Premiere Elements – Product versions.

      Note:
       

      If you're using the latest Product Release version (2023), then the navigation path will be C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 21\File Formats.

    10. Replace the existing Camera Raw plugin in the Elements<Version Number> folder with the plug-in that you had copied in step 8 i.e., Camera Raw.8bi file.

      Dear Jeff,

      It might be my limited computer knowledge, but following your instructions do not lead to a solution. Is there an eassier way to solve this?

      I can not reach Adobe in any way (no mail adress, no phonenumber). But shouldn't Adobe have a clear answer to the question when PSE will be able to handle the Lumix G9M2. I have now upgraded my pse 2020 to pse 2024 and still cannot use my raws. Is there anybody in the community who knows more about it. Or is somebody working at Adobe reading this who could maybe give an answer?

      Thank you.

      Kind regards,

      Hans Germeraad
