PS doesn't recognize the image format.... so i had the files converted from .CR2>.tif

i was then able to do the proper image processing with no quality loss... the strange thing is, the .cr2's were 1/2 the recorded size of the .tif files.

mabey its just that my old version of PS doesnt support CR2's, and PS 8 does?
I use Adobe's Raw Converter with Photoshop CS2 and really like it:
