Please see for yourself which version of Camera Raw supports a camera and which version of Photoshop is compatible with that ACR version:

Thanks,
But I know that the version of lightroom that I have will not support the RAW files from my Sony A9 so I convert them to dng files using the Sony DNG converter before importing into Lightroom. The version I have of Adobe dng programme is 13.1 which will not support raw files form the Sony Alpha A1 which I am going to buy. So I want a version of dng converter that will convert Alpha A1 RAW files to dng and still run on my Mac which use Mojave as again I am using older version of lightroom which will not run if I install OS Catalina!!
So not sure at how looking at which version of camera raw helps in this? Also first link does not have the A1 sony camera listed??

Sorry, I hadn’t checked whether DNG Converter was included in the list.

You should be able to install the adobe dng converter 13.4, which should convert your Alpha 1 (ILCE-1) ARW files.
Use Go>Connect to Server, paste in ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/dng/mac then click Connect as guest and look for and download the DNGConverter_13_4.dmg by dragging to your desktop or folder.

I notice the a1 isn't on the list, almost a year after release. That can't be right. Did it just drop off the list by mistake?

Ah, OK. It's not listed with the other alphas at the top (the ILCE models).

If your not able to get the dng converter 13.4 from the adobe ftp site, then there is a download link here for the dng converter 13.2 which should work to convert the Alpha 1 files.
