My SO just bought the new Canon digital Rebel (X something or other?) and Photoshop CS can't open the raw files. She tells me that Adobe may not be supporting CS 1 anymore and she will probably have to upgrade to CS 2 to handle the new raw files. Is Adobe in fact dropping support for CS I already?
Photoshop CS2 has additional features that the latest Camera Raw 3.1 plug-in is dependent upon to provide the Advanced features, so yes: you must upgrade to CS2 to use the latest software. Adobe Technical Support continues to handle CS questions and support, thousands of people with well established workflow have no need to upgrade to CS2. New cameras, however, need the support of new software, older cameras do not.
You just bought a new camera, doesn't it make sense that you'd have to buy software written to handle it?
But surely Elements 3.0 (with which the latest Camera Raw 3.1 plug-in is compatible) is not as advanced as original Photoshop CS?
I'm probably missing something here ...
