New MemberNov 29, 2020 I've recently started using a Canon R5, around the same time I updated Bridge to version 11 and Lightroom Classic to its 10/2020 update. I'm used to importing my files from an SD card to Bridge and coverting the RAW files to DNG. But now Bridge doesn't convert the Canon CR3 files to DNG. But Lightroom can convert those CR3 files to DNG. If you want DNG files in Lightroom CC then it will be necessary for you to convert them first and then add them. You can use the free standalone DNG converter to do that. There isn't a way to create smart previews from within Lightroom CC. I don't see a purpose for doing that from Lightroom CC. Heres how to use the Adobe DNG Converter: Download the Adobe DNG Converter by clicking on this link – Adobe DNG Converter Download. Oct 26, 2017 Until Adobe upgrades Lightroom you will need to convert your Nikon files to DNG using the Adobe DNG Converter before 'importing' the files to the catalog.
Converting to DNG during import. I'm going to assume that you know how to import images into Lightroom for this part. This is the most efficient way to convert Raw files to DNG but you need to be fully committed to the benefits of the DNG format because you will not have the original Raw files stored on your computer.

Why can Lightroom do it but not Bridge?
