Adobe Camera RAw

Some cameras produce images in RAW format. These images are not compressed by the camera software and are therefore fully editable on third-party software. It is this format that is favoured by professional photographers. Consumer cameras and even high-end smartphones are gradually acquiring this format without any compression, unfortunately, RAW is not recognized by Windows or Mac natively.

By installing this software, also available as plugins, you will be able to open and convert RAW images in your Photoshop. Note that this version is only compatible with Photoshop from CS6 onwards.
