Raw support Canon 77d.

Good morning.

Before purchasing my new Canon 77d, I checked to see if the raw format is supported. I does show on the supported list.

However, the first photos I tried to import showed that the raw format is not supported, it opens in Photoshop though, but not in Lightroom.

This is kind of a crisis, as my workload is piling up.

Regards

Rina Heydenreich

You have to buy a newer version of Lightroom. Either you buy a perpetual version of Lightroom 6 or a CC subscribtion, ex photographer plan. If you decide for Lightroom 6 you have to know that there's no more support for newer cameras, new functions or bug fixes.

Another solutions is to convert the RAW files into the DNG format. Then you can iomport these converted files into your version of Lightroom. The appropriate converter you can download here: Adobe Digital Negative Converter

Your options are-

1)  Buy an upgrade to Version 6.0  then update (free) to v6.14   (This is the last Perpetual version available.)

Download and install Lightroom 6 (Single App license)

Adobe software and product updates

2)  Download the (free) Adobe DNG Converter and use it to change your Canon raw files to DNG raw files, then import the DNGs into Lightroom.

I do actually have a subscription to Creative Cloud Photography plan. But it says my Lightroom is up to date (probably this version). Where do I look for the new version to download?

Now there may be a problem with your computer-

Is it a 32bit system?   Is it possibly 'old'?

Lightroom Classic requires a 64bit system. Check in 'Control Panel' > System.

Also, try signing out of the Desktop App then Sign In again.

Updating- yes! Sorry.

Your only option now is the DNG method.

When you convert a FOLDER of your Canon raw files to DNG, you create the DNG raw versions that can be imported into any version of Lightroom.

You lose nothing in quality. The raw data is exactly the same.

It just means you will need to include the conversion in your workflow.

Check out the links I gave in Post#5 above.

Note- This is NOT the option to [Import as DNG]  in the Lightroom Import dialog

Not sure what you mean by this! You cannot update Lightroom.

A 32bit computer cannot run any version of Lightroom from V6.0 onwards.

You will need a new computer system to run the latest versions.

The DNG Converter is free and easy to download and use.

A 64bit system will require a new Mother-board and CPU (not just a hard-drive).

Or a totally new laptop!

FYI- One little step catches many out, and that is- the Converter program must select a FOLDER of images to convert. If you select individual files then it does nothing.

So Copy your camera files from the camera card to a folder in your computer.

I also suggest not to include the original raws within the DNGs as this doubles the size of the files.

Unless you are running a computer that is 12+ years old all computers since around 2006 have had 64bit cpu's and can run, although slow, 64bit operating systems.

Whoever built your current system just skimped on installing a 64bit version of Windows.

My computer is actually not even a year old!

I'm not happy with this guy at all, after I specifically asked for a system that can run Photoshop and Lighroom effortlessly for the next few years!

The conversion fixed the problem for now,

Some people would suggest to use the Canon software (DPP ?) to 'open' your raw CR2 files, but you are then working outside the Lightroom environment and would need to create derivative files for editing in Lightroom.

Cameras supported by Camera Raw

Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw plugin. Lightroom has the Camera Raw engine built into its program code so you have to be running at least the minimum version of Lightroom shown on the attached link to open Raw files from the relevant camera in Lightroom.

The 77d has been supported since Lightroom 6.10 (CC 2015.10).

Which version of Lightroom are you running? In Lightroom, click Help > System Info to see exactly which version.
