Hi, I'm only a beginner, so please excuse my ignorance.
I have a Mac book pro with the inbuilt "photos "
App
Can I shoot in raw, import the raw image into photos, then process the raw image using photos?

Yes, Photos will handle a raw image, although it is probably not the best choice available. However, it is free, it will do a decent job and will help you learn some of the basic things you'll need to know. Some of the free apps from the App Store (i.e., Snapheal) can be used with Photos on a raw image. Free proprietary programs that come free with your camera (Canon's Digital Photo Professional) can also be used. There are any number of other paid programs in the App Store and other locations that can be used with a Mac (LightRoom, PS Elements, etc.) as well
