Contents

Can Lightroom import CR2 files?

Yep, version of Lightroom. Two choices, upgrade Lightroom or use Adobe’s DNG converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG, which is Adobe’s generic raw format. Once they are DNG files you can import into Lightroom.

Does Lightroom 5 support raw files?

Adobe provides backward compatibility for the latest cameras for free in Photoshop CS, CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, and CS6 as well as Lightroom 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, through the Adobe DNG Converter. With this tool, you can easily convert camera-specific raw files from supported cameras to a more universal DNG raw file.
