Adobe Camera Raw 3.1

[Jerry Snider]

I use both ACR and Nikon Capture (not on the same pic!) for my NEF files.
Yesterday attempted to upgrade to ACR 3.1 for Photoshop CS2. Seemed to input fine and placed under Programs, Common Files, Adobe, Plugins, CS2, File formats on my PC.
Clicking on properties and version I get 3.1.0.17. Removed the earlier version to another folder. However, when I call up ACR in Photoshop to work on a file and click on "calibrate" and check "camera profile" the latter shows ACR 2.4. Should it not show ACR 3.1? Likely a really dumb question for most of you, but to me a dumb question is the question not asked.
TIA

you do have 3.1 if you mooved the other 8bi out of photoshot. and put in the new one.

don't worry about what it says. Just a glich.

You can go to the adobe forums they explain it.

btw, does that plugin come with the new cs2?

Does it come with CS2?

Not that I am aware. I downloaded from the Adobe site and installed it. There are two options, one for Adobe Raw only and one for Adobe Raw and DNG converter.

When CS2 came out ACR 3.1 was still in beta testing, so ACR 3.0 (that does not work with the new Nikon cameras, D2hs and D2x) shipped with it. I do not know if they are putting 3.1 into the current shipping software.

As Jerry pointed out, you can get 3.1 for free from Adobe's site:
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2931
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2930

Hmmm... I just noticed that ACR 3.x supports PS Elements 3.0. So I guess I should "upgrade" from PSCS to PSE 3.0, if I don't want to pay Adobe their full extortionist special upgrade price tag. :? :x :roll:

CS2 has some nice tricks too.

PR disaster

Well, the whole WB issue is getting really ugly. This interview is incredibly revealing: http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000960042753

Gotta love how the Nikon lawyer...I mean PR guy swoops right in when the subject of encryption comes up. Nice.
