I recently bought the Nikon D750. I cannot edit my photos in CS5 because the camera raw is not supporting that camera. Can anyone please advice?
You can batch convert a whole folder of raw images to Adobe raw (DNG) and the dng files are backward compatible.

Is your question (in a 6-year-old thread with a correct answer) why does Adobe provide a FREE converter of proprietary camera raw files so that users like the OP can use new(er) cameras on their older product without having to upgrade and pay?
Is your question why does Adobe provide a converter that produces an openly documented raw that, like TIFF (which they also own) can be used for free in any other software product that wishes to do so?
Maybe you should be asking why this takes place: Every time Canon (or Nikon, or Sony, etc) release a new camera, they do this stupid trick of making yet a new proprietary raw file that everyone outside the company, including Adobe, needs access to so they can 'hack' the tiny differences to support that new proprietary raw. You, the customer, get to wait and are forced to use the manufacturer's raw converter until this all takes place. It is silly, but that's how it has been for decades. Some companies are faster to do this than others, but the facts are every 3rd party raw converter manufacturer has to go through this silly dance. Complain about this to your camera company, no Adobe, for providing a solution for free that doesn't force their customers to update their raw converters to access the camera raw data they create!
Some one please end Adobe's monopoly.

No one forces you or anyone else to purchase Adobe licenses (subscriptions).
