Anyone know of a third party plug in for Photoshop CS that can read CR2s from a 350d? Sick of waiting for Adobe, and that heap of rubbish Zoombrowser nonsense from Canon is just too irritating!

Cheers

I don't use PS much, but I've been using Raw Shooter Essentials for a while and it's pretty good - miles better than the Canon option.

Adobes camera raw 2.3 update should be able to see them, it can see the 20D raw files?

Nope.. I got 2.4, and it can't. It's not in the supported list. 20D yes.... 350D no.

Not a plugin but a stand alone piece of software, breezebrowser pro is excellent.

Hmmm...even Canon's Digital Pro Software is yet to support the 350d! : http://software.canon-europe.com/software/digital_photo_professional_updater_for_windowss215 26.asp?model=

Rawshooter looks good so far. It is a trial version tho... will it stop working after a while, or is there anything missing? I like the "extract detail" setting... much nicer than adjusting shrpness.

No, the current version is totally free as will be the updates, however they are working on a more advanced version that they intend to retail, that will be a pay for program.

I have now totally switched over my RAW processing to this and then use PS for any advanced editing. My workflow time has been slashed.
