Using the Camera Raw plug-in
In this section, you'll discover how to open and make changes to a Camera Raw file. Camera Raw really
deserves more than can be covered in this lesson, but this will give you an introduction, and hopefully get
you interested enough to investigate further on your own.
What is a Camera Raw file?
A Camera Raw image file contains the unprocessed data from the image sensor of a digital camera; essentially, it is a
digital negative of your image. By working with a Raw file, you have greater control and flexibility, while maintain-
ing the original image file.
The Raw format is proprietary and differs from one camera manufacturer to another, and sometimes even between
cameras made by the same manufacturer. This differentiation can lead to many issues, mostly that you also need the
camera's proprietary software to open the Raw file, unless, of course, you are using Photoshop CC's Camera Raw
plug-in. The Camera Raw plug-in supports more than 150 camera manufacturers, and allows you to open other types
of files into the Camera Raw plug-in, including TIFFs and JPEGs. If you are not sure whether your camera is suppor-
ted by the Camera Raw plug-in, go to adobe.com and type Support Camera Raw cameras in the Search text field.
