What Adobe 7, Elements or Photoshop? Elements 7 is only about a year old. Photoshop 7 is about six years old.

Newer versions of camera raw plugin only work with newer versions of the programs.

The key is whether or not the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw available for your version of either Photoshop or Elements will support RAW files from your camera, if it's a later model. For Photoshop 7.0, unlikely. For Elements 7, possible.

The workaround: Download the latest version of Adobe's Digital Negative Converter (v. 5.x) and use that to convert your RAW files to DNG format, which should work with your software. I have to do that with Photshop CS3 because the latest version of ACR available for it does not support RAW files from my Canon EOS 5D Mk. II. It's an extra step in the workflow, but much cheaper than upgrading to CS4 (DNG converter is free.)

For Canon user Canon Digital Photo Professional is a much better solution and is free to all registered Canon users..
