the problem i'm having, is that there's so many factors to deal with,that i'm at a loss as to where to start.
I have a computer with Photoshop CS3, was shooting with a Canon XTI with Sandisk III 4gig reading off of a first gen HP CF reader (yeah, very VERY slow).
yesterday, i got 2 items in the mail. Canon 40D, and a lexar firewire CF reader.
first off:
- all pictures can be previewed fine on the camera
- all pictures (CR2) can be copied off of the disk through the lexar reader fine.
- I could NOT use the DPP software that came with the XTI to transfer the files. it would transfer, but i would not be able to view the files. The files would be a CR2 icon with an "X" through it.
but, i still can't use adobe bridge to access the files, and convert to DNG files. to clarify, i can use bridge to DL the files, but bridge can't preview the files, can't convert them to DNG, and when i double click, it won't open in CS3 because "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"
i prefer to do my download through bridge->ps. Anyone got any guess on why CS3 would work fine with the XTi, but crap out with the 40D?
