Is there a way to process RAW images in Photoshop or Lightroom?

Yes, as long as the Camera Raw us reasonably up to date. Camera Raw 8.6 and Lightroom 5.6. PS should be CS6 or CC

Lightroom compliments the digital camera and gives you the capabilities of a well equipped wet darkroom. For example: * The camera is set for daylight, Lightroom adjusts the image temperature like using "indoor" film for fluorescent lights or studio lights. * You shoot creating "raw" and "jpg" images, jpg goes right to facebook, raw (which has more information) is used to create that frame-able, award winning print. * You adjust a raw print, Lightroom saves the changes (not the whole image) and the original image. This saves a lot of computer space if you have a dozen variations of the same image. * In the old dark room, you used light (time and intensity) to burn and dodge a print to bring out details in the shadows and washed out feaures. In LR you use your mouse or finger (touch screen). Ditto for tones like sepia and solarization. LR can do pixilation. Try that with an enlarger. * Like the old negative file system. LR stores your `raw' or jpg images in a system of your choice. You can create cross reference list such as "beach photos" or "cute D. coriacea faces" to find your beach or sea turtle pictures without making copies in different directories. It's like use file cards but without the hassle. Changes are not made to the originals (like you can't change a negative) * Of course you can crop, adjust contrast, color, tone, vignette, control convergence, combination print, make contact(proof) sheets, and most of the wet darkroom techniques. Of course with the full-blown Photoshop you can do all this, but LR is for the photographer and is easier on the wallet. I recommend that you take a LR class from a professional photographer. It will be worth every penny.

Yes. Both RAW and JPEG formats are available. Sometimes because of the class of your SD card, the uploading speed of RAW is slow.

Of course you can improve your photos! That's the whole point of image editing software. Adjusting colors, sharpness, brightness, etc. are just a few things you can do. And don't be sucked in by RAW. For most people, it's highly overrated.

Limited to JPEG only, though, just like all the others. If you really want high quality HDR images, shoot in RAW and combine them in another software like Photomatix. You'll get much better results than any in-camera HDR processing.

It's Adobe photoshop lightroom. If you go to Adobe's website it'll assist you with your question.

The app gives you the option of transferring either JPG or RAW or both. It can push either Canon or Nikon raw files just fine.

The photo studio expressions will do that. It is much more user friendly than photoshop elements.

PSP is more like Photoshop than Lightroom. It supports layers, which is the big divide. If you are interested in using layers, PSP would make sense unless you decided to do the subscription thing with Adobe. The raw converter from Adobe is better than PSP's raw converter, so you might want to do your initial editing in Lightroom and your more advanced editing, if necessary, in PSP. BTW, PSP supports most (but not all) Photoshop plugins. AIUI, the ones with the .8bf extension will work. I use the Topaz suite and Focus Magic with PSP. FWIW

It does capture RAW format, however it's in a slightly different state than a DSLR or other camera. You will need to run all RAW images through a free Sony converter program before Photoshop of Lightroom can read them for post processing. In other words, you will probably be better off shooting JPEG unless it's a special image.

Yes.. Best practice will be to download the still images into Organizer and then Edit in Elements - Organizer is included with Elements.

HI Anthony, You can shoot RAW & JPEG together, which is what I currently shoot.

You have your choice of what format you want to save it as. I have not tried it with photoshop but I would assume you could just save it to a specific place (your desktop or a specified folder) and then import it into what ever program you wanted.

Yes, but you will need a program capable of making an image file. There are a lot, depending upon your operating system, so just read about a few.

It does capture RAW with no difficulty. And most editing tools, from Lightroom on down to programs like Irfanview, easily manage that format.

Yes, but JPEG rendering is really really bad. Raw files are amazing. They hold a lots of shadow details. Right now I'm only using d800e and leica m240. But I had a great time with this affordable camera

I have never used it, but there is a menu choice in professional mode for either black and white or color negatives. I have used it to digitize slides as jpeg files and it worked fine.
