First your camera model .cr2 files must be supported in the ACR Plug-in version.
The Canon G10 was not supported (I think from memory) until ACR version 5+ and that requires CS4.
You can work around this with Adobe DNG converter.

Once converted to DNG format you can use your older version of ACR.

As far as I see, the last Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) version which works with CS3 is Vers. 4.6. [tiny.pl/hq84j]
Using the latest DNG converter should work, but have a look to the presets and choose "ACR4.6 compatibility" ...

Sal said: Is it ok if I use the software included with the canon g10 camera.
It opens .cr2 raw files, and has a editor.
Digital Photo Professional Version 3.5.0.0

Yes, it should be OK. The big issue with RAW converting software and fisheye lenses is that you need to be able to correct for Chromatic Aberration and Vignetting. If the software is not capable or isn't very good at it you would be better off using the Adobe DNG converter and than processing the files with ACR.
Other forum users here I believe do use DPP and like it. Or at least get the most from it.
