Please bear with me.
My situation is that I’m purchasing a new camera that’s only supported with raw5 and I’d prefer to stay with cs3. I also have lightroom 1.3.
As I see it, my choices are to go to cs4 (rather not) or use dng converter and use cs3 or go to lightroom 2.
My question is that since lightroom 2 uses raw 5x and cs3 4x, will I cause a mess in my computer? I did install the trial cs4 and found that it altered cs3 on me. I was told this wouldn’t happen but there are some common files (the raw being one of them) and I actually had to wipe my system and reinstall everything.
So I’d appreciate any input as to whether anyone out there knows that these two can play nice together. Are their raws shared or in separate locations where they’ll never fight?
Thanks in advance.
