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

Anybody got an idea when there will be support for the Sony A7iv? I've got the camera for more than a week now, and I can't edit photo's.

Adobe will likely follow their regular procedure, no announcement, release new Camera model support with regular Lightroom/ Adobe Camera Raw updates. Updates have been every two and half to three months in recent times.

Surely the Camera manufacturer provided you with software, for the camera they sold you, to enable you process the raw files that the camera produces.

Hi, apparently you have to wait (until when? who knows...)... I hope you are happy like me to have purchased your gear at first...

As others have mentioned, it could be months until the next release. If this is the case, then I would have to request a refund from Adobe for the months I am unable to edit A7iv ARW images. 

I appreciate that Adobe require the camera etc, however YouTube reviewers have had the camera for months, so surely Adobe could have requested a model before general release?

Thats true, although I got my hopes up as for the past 4 years, adobe did release an update in the first two weeks of december.

I do think though, there is a pretty good chance we update will come in december. I just checked the prior releases which brought support of the a7ii, a7iii and a7r iii and all came within two months of announced of the camera or one month after the camera hitting the stores,

I picked up my Sony A7iv yesterday, and I was wondering if there is anyone from the Adobe tech support team here that could let me know when we can expect a LR/Camera RAW update to support the Sony ILCE-7M4??

 

Many Thanks

I would like the support for the sony a7 iv raws added to lightroom aswell. I got the camera, it works, but I practically renders it useless if I can't open or edit the raw files...

As you can see, the problem is getting bigger every day. Maybe someone from Adobe (@Rick Flohr) will write one sentence when there can be support for Sony A7IV?

I, by the way, also wrote a message to support Sony that they would also work on this topic.

Greetings, Marek
