GH3 Camera raw (PrPro cs5.5.2) does not see RAW files from GH3

[Preston Davis]

Just got the GH3 a few days ago and I am loving it. Only glitch is even after updating cs5.5, Camera Raw still does not recognize raw files from the camera. What am I missing?

Well, first off, you should be using Photoshop to open raw files, not Premiere. But I believe the update for the GH3 files is still a beta, so it wouldn't download automatically- you'll have to find it on Adobe's site and install it manually.

Both Photoshop's Camera Raw 7.3 & Lightroom 4.3 open the GH3's RAWs.

As mentioned they're not optimized yet, & the profiles were likely built upon pre-release RAW files a Beta Tester slipped to them.

Sorry, I was not clear. I am trying to open the files in Ps CAMERA RAW 7.3. This is the message I get:

" Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw."

I CAN edit the RAW file in the supplied SILKYPIX software and 'develop them'. That actually works well and is a pretty deep program.

Thanks for your input...

I believe you need CS 6 in order to install Camera Raw 7.3.

Thanks, I'll use the silkypix software for now.

I don't have CS6 and I open raw using lightroom 4.3.

Lightroom's my preferred RAW processing software too.

Thanks guys, I got the trial version of Lr 4.3 and it works great!
