Hi, I have Photoshop Elements 11, Camera Raw updated to latest version. But it says camera is not supported. Is there anyway to update my current Photoshop Elements to be able to handle rw2 files? Below is my system info.

Also, I downloaded the Adobe DNG Converter, but when I open the folder with the Raw files it's empty, the DNG converter doesn't see it there? What gives?

What Panasonic camera do you have?

You already have the camera raw 7.4 plugin installed, which is the newest pse 11 can use.

When you select the images to convert, you just want to select the folder with the rw2 files inside, not the actual files thenselves.

In other words just click on the Folder and don't open the folder.

The newest dng converter is version 10.
