I have PS CS3. I want the latest version of camera raw (plugin 6.3), but it is not available for CS3. I don't have a couple hundred dollars to spend on CS5 and I saw that camera raw 6.3 is available for PS Elements 9 (which is only $90). Will camera raw plugin 6.3 be the same in Elements as it is in CS5, or will it be watered down?

Thanks!

@tylerpmac Camera RAW for Photoshop Elements is "watered down" compared to when you use Camera RAW for Photoshop CS5. The first "settings folder" where you set exposure, black point etc is the same and you can also set sharpening if I remember correctly. Some of the settings you can do in CS5 you can't do in Elements.

This was very helfull!!!! Thank you! Where can find this plugin? Can you help me step by step to install this plugin in my cs too? I am a Mac user.

@christos4744 Thanks for appreciating the video.

Most people tend to believe that RAW editing is complex while it's actually very simple like you just realized. You can try to open a RAW file already now because Adob Camera RAW was most likely installed automatically when you installed Photoshop (bundled with Photoshop).

Good luck!

Thank you, one of the best tutorials I've seen explaining the interface. I learned so much (Alt key, Brightness doesn't affect white/black point), and what a fantastic 2nd picture to demonstrate how easy it can be to adjust RAW images and adjust those kind of pictures which tend to be common. Thanks again!

@peterbergdahl pretty close :D cool video!

An excellent and clear video in the use of Adobe Raw. You explained it very clearly and I understood all that you said. Thank you.

Wondered if you have another video explaining the sharpness,radius, detail masking, luminance and color. These are also important if used too much the picture looks distorted?
