Working with RAW files from Bridge
-Opening RAW Files From Bridge
-Apple/Command + O
-Apple/Command+ R
-RAW in Bridge
If you highlight an image while in Bridge...
..then click on the Apple/Command key and the O key (the letter O as in Oliver), it will take you directly to photoshop and open up the Camera RAW file. This is good for situations where you want to actually go into photoshop with the selected image. However, there is another alternative.
The alternative is to open the RAW file while working in Bridge. By hitting the hot key combination of the Apple/Command and the R key, you can open the RAW file directly in Bridge.
This is great if you have an older computer or you are looking to save a little bit on your computer's RAM. Either or, here or in Photoshop, the Camera RAW settings and adjustments are the same.
