Hi there.  Can you please tell me when PSE 2018 will have RAW support for the Sony A7iii?

    Adobe just released the camera raw 10.3 update, which includes support for the Sony A7iii, so any day now pse 2018 should get the update, hopefully.

    Thanks Jeff.

    Will we have to re-installed ACR 10.3 or is it an update for PSE? Not sure how tha works. Gosh I've been using PSE 11 for a few years and can't remember how that works. (Have PSE 18, but not installed yet.) 

    I just got an A7 III yesterday and shot raw, but had to convert to PNG and ..well.  Today, I'll test shoot in jpg XF.

    Thanks for any info you can offer.

    Hi All

    I still can't open new ARW files taken from my new camera.  I have installed the Camera Raw Plugin 10.3, but PSE 2018 does not seem to be recognising it, it still seems to be using 10.2.  Is there something else I should be doing?  Or do I have to wait for Adobe to do something?  See screen shots below...


    After running the CameraRaw_10_3.exe that can be extracted from the CameraRaw_10_3_win.zip downloaded from the link, above:

    https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html#9_12

    Try copying C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi

    to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 16\File Formats\

    If you don't have a CC folder under C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins after running the EXE, then you're stuck, and I don't know what to tell you to do.

    I have Photoshop CC on my computer and running the CameraRaw_10_3.exe will put the 64-bit plugin into that CC folder, where it can be copied into the Elements plug-in area.  But I don't know what happens if you don't have a version of Photoshop, itself, installed on your computer.  Maybe the CameraRaw_10_3.exe is smart enough to check and not copy anything if it doesn't find Photoshop.

    Maybe you can test and reply back, here.
