I actively help the UHH community membership most every day. A casual review of your participation shows the opposite. So, don't project your failure onto anyone else.


Smart a...s comments belittling people is help?

Dream on.

You're the loser that has started following me around on the site. That's loser behavior, or stalking; poor form no matter the descriptive.

FOR THE RECORD: I contacted Adobe via their website and explained the problem I was having. One of their operators took remote control of my computer (with my permission), down loaded the proper plug in, and then got it set up for me. IT NOW WORKS!

"low light" is an unusually red Red Herring to distract the UHH community away from a photographer-caused technical problem. Canon's newest mirrorless cameras use a new RAW extension, CR3, representing either / both 'compressed' and uncompressed RAW (sensor) data. Every camera's RAW files are unique, and 3rd parties like Adobe need to update their current software releases to handle the ongoing camera model releases.

As others have mentioned, check to see if Adobe has an update available to support the R7 RAW files into PSE-2023. Other alternatives:

1, Capture both RAW and JPEG / HEIF formats and process the supported file types in PSE-2023 until RAW support is available.

2, Download and install the current Canon DPP v4 software and 'save as' the CR3 files to a format PSE-2023 can accept.

Regarding Dual-Pixel, that is a camera setting entirely under the photographer's control. See page 165 of your EOS R7 Advanced User Guide for where / how / why to enable this camera setting.

CHG, I guess your reference to lower light has to do with the title of the post????

On several occasions I've shot with my Canon R7 in low light situations and Photoshop Elements 2023 wouldn't process the images I shot. Tonight I was trying to shoot the Blue Moon and PSE wasn't able to process the shots. All of the images had a suffix of .CR3. I tried to down load Camera RAW plug in and couldn't get it to work. Any ideas?


Photographing the moon might not be considered low light photography. As you now know, with the update of the software, it wasn't the fault of the R7, but PS.

This has nothing at all to do with low light.

It is because by default Elements 2023 cannot handle CR3 (Canon's current version of RAW files).

This is how you solve the problem:

1. Start Elements.
2. Go to "help" menu.
3. Click on "Install Camera Raw" (Internet connection necessary).
4. Once that's installed, you should be able to handle those CR3 files with Elements 2023.

Alternatively, as Chg_Canon suggested you can go to the Canon website, download and install their Digital Photo Pro software and use that to unpack those CR3 files, converting to something Elements can handle. Of course
