Hi,

I have a Nikon Z7 II and bougt a new version 2021 of Elements and I need to have a new Camera Raw to support my pictures.

Where can I find it? I can't do any upgrades under " Help/Updates" in Elements since it's shadowed. 

Please advice.

 

Kind regards,

Ronny

You can't.

As usual, it takes some time after a new camera model is on the market to get a raw converted for the new raw format.

The 7ZII requires the ACR version 13.1 which is not yet available for Elements.

So download the free Adobe DNGconverter mentioned in the above faq. This standalone app (not a plugin) will convert your raw files to the universal DNG raw format that your PSE2021 and even older versions can read and edit. An additional batch step, but free and with the same quality.

Hi again,

I got an update 13.11 and installed it. Elements can't still import files from Nikon 7ZII. Has someting during the installation went wrong or is this camera modell still not supported?

Kind regards,

Ronny

Don't waste your time to download the ACR version of the full Photoshop. There is still no update for the Elements ACR version.

Your only choices are to use the converter supplied by Nikon or to use the DNGconverter.
