Hi all can u help??

I use photoshop elements 15 & premiere elements 15 which has so far failed to open or convert any 'ctg' files created when I shot some film/videos with my Canon camera.  I have updated 'plug-ins' but still did not work.

Has anyone any solutions to above dilema?

Take care & have fun

    CTG files are Canon catalog files which contain information about your images but do not contain any image data themselves. They are not meant to be opened by end users.

    Canon Raw image files have a CR2 (or sometimes CR3) suffix.

    Which Canon camera have you got?

    You've probably been finding your .ctg files inside a folder named CANONMSC. Ignore that folder.

    Look for CR2 files in the other folders in the DCIM folder.
