For a complete overview of camera support in Photoshop and Lightroom, visit the following article:

Why doesn't my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

  1. Make sure your version of Photoshop or Lightroom is updated for the latest camera support.
  2. If you own an older version of Photoshop or Lightroom, Adobe provides backward compatibility for the latest cameras through the FREE Adobe DNG Converter.

 

Note: ETAs for specific cameras are not available

Lightroom fails to read the RAW files of the Sony alpha 7C II.

"Lightroom fails to read the RAW files of the Sony alpha 7C II."

 

The Sony a7C II was announced after the release of the LR 12.5.  Support for a new camera from a major manufacturer typically arrives in the release following the availability of the camera, sometimes in the next release after that. We might expect to see the next releases of CR and LR in mid-October during Adobe Max. (I have no inside information.)  

 

Meanwhile, you'll have to shoot in JPEG or use Sony's utility to convert from raw to TIFF.

Hi, 

Yesterday I received my new Sony A7CR. After 5 years I finally replaced my A7iii. 
I am using a Sony THOUGH V60 SD-card.


Problem: 
Adobe Lightroom doesn't read the RAW (uncompressed or compressed) file from the camera. All my Adobe products are up-to-date and my MacOs as well running the new Sanoma 14.0. When I import the RAW file to Lightroom it shows a large grey screen with a (!) where normally the photo is visible. HELP.

Camrea RAW supports the a6700 from v15.5 & Lightroom from v6.5, or you can just use the latest version of the DNG Converter (v14+).

I can resist anything except temptation...

Hello, 

is there any possibility to add Canon EOS R6 mark II to supported camera list of Lightroom Classic? Camera Raw does support the camera but Lr Classic does not. Is there any way to add that camera SDK to the application soon so I can make pictures in the studio with the new camera?

The Canon R6 Mark II is already supported by Lightroom Classic.You need Lightroom 12.x.

The camera is already supported by CameraRAW 15.x.

Hello All

 

I am sure this has been answered before. I have searched articles, but there are too many confussing threads and anserwes (I am old). Lol. My gifted Nikon D780 is great, but I have photoshop CS6 and the raw files cannot be proccessed using CS6 & Bridge on windows 10 PC. I attempted to download the latest update (twice) but no joy. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Recently bought Sony A6700 and cannot upload images into LR Classic as it does not accept the files.  It says " the files cannot be opened by LR" and "Preview unavailable for this file" as the files are ARW. 

When is Adobe going to update so that users of Sony A6700, which has been out for a couple of months now, can use LR normally.  Meanwhile I pay Adobe every month for using their services but cannot use the services because it does not upload my images to LR because they are ARW files.  A bit slack Adobe.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

When will Sony a6700 be supported? Even after 15.5 it's you're unable to open raw Sony A6700 files in Lightroom?

 

Where is a list of all the supported cameras / formats? 

Community Expert

The A6700 was added to 15.5 so if you can't open them something is wrong in your installation or you're shooting reduced resolution raw files which are usually not supported right away. 

Camera list is the very first link you get when googling "camera support lightroom": https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

Would compressed Raw make a difference? Sony has that option.

Bonjour à tous, est-il encore normal à ce jour 16 Aout 2023, que Lightroom Classic, ne reconnait encore, pas les fichiers Raw du Sony Alpha 6700?

                    Merci pour votre concours, et me faire connaitre la manoeuvre permettant d'activer cela, bien sur, si possible.

Lightroom will not open Sony A6700 RAW files, even though Photoshop does. Is this a Camera Raw or Lightroom issue?

I also notice that Camera Raw 15.5 has binned some of my custom profiles and they won't re-import as it says they are already there when they are not.
