Aperture v3.2.3 and Nikon D800

I have just received a new Nikon D800. Aperture and IPhoto both do not load all photos from the camera and many times the programs hand-up.
I have downloaded the latest add-on to be handle the Nikon D4.
Any available solution?

Hi Leighton,
also using a D800 and haven't experienced any problems with the image format after imports using Aperture 3.2.2. I import by using a standalone CF card reader and sometimes using the iMac build in SD card reader. I went back to 3.2.2 as 3.2.3 continuelly crashed (but there's another topic for that).
As far as I have noticed all images imported without problems and all the metadata does seem to be there. This includes the focus points except for images I took with manual focus. As I shoot and import more images I will keep checking and let you know if I do experience problems.
Did you retry to reprocess the masters when it failed to see whether it was a problem during import only?
Often editing of the D800 files is similar to editing D700 on my iMac 2009 model - with Intel i7 and 8Gb memory. But I sometimes experience extreme slowdowns while (mask) editing D800 files. Not sure yet when it pops-up. Especially while masking it sometimes freezes for about 30 to 45 seconds with a very high cpu load (between 400 and 600%) and it seems without any disk activity. If I redo the same operation it doesn't happen again.

Tethering issue lightroom 4.4 and Nikon D800

I'm having trouble tethering my Nikon D800 to Lightroom 4.4.
Attempts at tethering mostly produce "No Camera Detected" after File > Tethered Capture in Lightroom.
There have been some occasions however when the camera was detected and tethering functioned for a short while.
These successful occasions happened using the same approach and equipment.
I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit Version 6.1 (with i7) and both camera and Lightroom have been updated.
From Terry: [email protected]

Thanks for the help. I have made progress this way: I updated the drivers for the Nikon D800 on the computer. Lightroom and Nikon's ViewNX2 were already fully updated. This didn't help. I deleted NikonView, restarted, and found the problem gone. Lightroom tethers as it should without ViewNX2 on the machine. This is still a mystery to me but I can tether.

Camera RAW and Nikon D800/CS6

I upgraded to Photoshop CS6 from CS5.X and I can not open RAW files in Camera RAW for my Nikon D800. It functioned properly in CS5 with the latest RAW release but won't work in CS6.

You need Camera Raw 7.1...

RAW Version 4.0 in Aperture 3.4.1 and Nikon D4 ?

Why does Aperture 3.4.1 ask me to reprocess my Nikon D4 files, saying that they are all processed with an oder RAW Version (3.0) in Aperture.
Looks like Apple hat now RAW Version 4.0 included.
Where can I find more information about the RAW Version 4.0 in Aperture.
It looks like it's changing my colors, too.
Thanks,
JO

I have not found any info about RAW 4.x in the Support -- where are you seeing the reference?
In my Aperture Library to option to Reprocess is not citing the current version.
Also, choosing to Reprosses the images from my Nikon D800 makes no decernable change in the images when I choose it.
It seems likely to me that with the addition of Skin Tone to White Balancing options, some change in be triggered. I find slight changes if I change from any other option to Skin Tones without using the dropper at all. You might test toggling between the now three options for white balance without otherwise clicking anything else to see what if any change results.

CS6 and Nikon D800

My Nikon D800 and CS6 are not playing nice. I have updated CS6 and some of the updates have errors. I am getting U44M1P7 error message...whatever that means. I can load photos into Bridge. From there it goes thru a translation program that takes quite a long time. Ultimately, the photos showup in my CS6 on the top bar. I can not get them to thumbnail preview or into slideshow. I can view a selected photo, but can't do any editing. Any guesses? My Nicon D7000 works well with this software. I don't get what the problem could be.

Will CS6 and Windows 7 (32 bit) open Nikon D800 Raw files?
Yes, you just need to update Camera Raw to the latest version (7.1).
Also, beware of Nikon Transfer, which has been known to modify the D800 raw files making them incompatible with Camera Raw. Adobe Photodownloader does not have this problem.

When will a Camera Raw new version become available for CS5 and Nikon D800 images ?? Any clues?

I understand that I have presently an option to download the Beta version ACR 6.7 and it expires by May 31st.
Does this mean that a new ACR version will become available for regular automatic update on or before that date?
I just want to know when will I be able to enjoy processing the images from the new Nikon D800 I hace CS5

I would expect Adobe to support the current version of LR with the current version of PS as usual.
Last time it was the opposite, but this time, LR4 with PV2012 came out, first, when CS5/ACR6.x was the current version so I would expect Adobe to release a final CS5-compatible ACR that knows how to render, but not adjust PV2012 recipes from LR4. This is what ACR 6.7RC attempts to do but with some luminance differences with certain PV2012 toning sliders near their extremes. Adobe rushed things a bit, this time, due to the D800 and 5D.3 cameras coming out about the same time and wanting to make big spenders happy sooner rather than later, so I expect they are taking extra time to get things right in the released versions of ACR 6.7, ACR 7 and LR 4.1. With CS6 also coming out, and the economy still on the rocks in many areas of the world and country, resources are stretched thing, but I expect all will resolve in time.

Lightroom 4 and Nikon D800

I am using Mac with Lion, Lightroom 4 and 6.7 beta ACR. I am converting to DNG on import and none of my vertical shots are not automatically rotating to the correct orientation. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem?
Thanks
Chad

Don't know about your camera, but on the D90 there is a menu option that has to be set in order to rotate tall. Have you set that option?

Nikon D800 Multiple Exposure problem in Aperture

When I shoot multiple exposures with the new Nikon D800, import into Aperture (latest greatest version with all updates up-to-date) the image imported looks NOTHING like what was on the saved/merged image in-camera and appears red-red-red. Shot a bunch last night had issue with every one. Think there might be an overlooked glitch here. Everything else seems to work 100% with D800, but this might be glitch.
So, I wanted to be sure I wasn't seeing things, took the camera to kid's soccer game today to further test, got home and loaded 'em into Aperture, same exact thing. The blown-out ones are the multiple exposures (look perfect in-camera) and as you can see the following photo is as it was shot (non-red ones to the right of the selected 5 that are blow-out examples.)

I don't think it's magic dust and it's definitely been used for more than 100 years....there aren't Multiple photos, it's 1 photo exposed multiple times with and end net of 1 photo. This is NOT like HDR where you have multiple photos at different EV and merge, this is 1 photo and shutter actuated on SAME photo multiple times. In other words, there is no "series" of photos to look at....1 photo. Cannot understand why Aperture is having stuch a problem with this when it didn't have the problem with D700 files.

Cannot import Nikon D800 NEF photos into Preview, iPhoto, or Aperture

My iMac will not display Nikon D800 NEF photos in Preview, iPhoto, or Aperture. Any solutions?

Need more info.
Most specifically, which OS version are you using? Which versions of Aperture and iPhoto?
From the sound of it, my first guess would be the versions you're running. Nikon D800 gained support in Lion 10.7.4 (Nikon D800E support was added in RAW Compatibility update 3.13 sometime last year).
If you're running versions earlier than these (e.g Snow Leopard) then the OS doesn't know how to deal with these RAW files.

Greens from my Nikon D800 are way over saturated and too bluish 14 bit NEF

Greens from my Nikon D800 are way over saturated and too bluish 14 bit NEF uncompressed files. I have no problem with raw files from other cameras is there a setting I am missing somewhere?

Hi,
I have been shooting my D800 for over a year now, and I have not observed what you are discussing, particularly in outdoor, natural light situations.
I have downloaded your NEF, and imported it into Aperture (3.4.5). I notice two things right away: 1) you are using Uncompressed NEF, 14 bit recording; and 2) you seem to have a custom White Balance. The former should be of no matter, but would be interested if you have been able to discern any advantage over Lossless Compression, 14 bit?
However, the important concern is with the Custom White Balance impact on the rendering of NEFs in RAW in Aperture. I am planning to do a study of this, and am wondering if you could test your resutls in similar shots with Auto White Balance rather than any preset (yours or the camera standard presets)?
I by practice only shoot Auto White Balance (and RAW), but recently I have found benefit to using a preset WB when shooting video since that result will not be modifiable later on the computer. After doing this, I have sometimes forgotten to reset the WB to Auto before again shooting stills in RAW, and the resulting difference vs once reset has been curious.
While it is well known that Picture Controls when used and shooting RAW will likely result in wide differences between the Camera Preview and Aperture's first rendering, I am less certain what the dynamics of White Balance settings and first rendering in Aperture.
Thanks for the test image and chance to discuss this.

Just imported picture library from Aperture - Can't view Nikon D800 NEF files in LR5.7.1

Just imported a large picture library from Aperture to LR 5.7.1- Can't view Nikon D800 NEF files in LR5. The projects and files loaded - but no thumbnail view of the image

I have a Nikon D50 nef on my desktop. Double-clicking on it opens Photoshop, which launches Adobe Camera Raw. If you get that far and can make adjustments in the ACR panel, you are fine. That's what opens first.
Then you click "Open" in ACR and your nef opens in Photoshop and the document tab on top gives the .nef extension. You make your edits there, but if you close Photoshop, you won't save it as nef, it won't be in the Save file list. You save it as psd for example and close Photoshop.
You now have a nef with develop settings on your desktop and the psd you saved out of Photoshop.
All perfectly normal as J.J. said, Photoshop will edit the nef file, but it will be saved in a format other than nef.

MBP + Aperture + Nikon D800 - Anyone?

Greetings, Looking for anyone using a MBP with Aperture 3 + and the new Nikon D800. Want to see how the MBP and Aperture are handling performance with the larger 36 megapixel RAW files. Anyone?

Don't have a D800, yet.
But I have worked with 100+ MB TIFF from scanned slides for years. And that includes working with a 2006 MBP with 2 GB of RAM.
Others will add refinements but there are several stress points in the Aperture workflow that may show the impact of larger files:
-- Basic file handling. Importing, exporting, copying, etc. may all be a bit slower depending on your HD and bus speeds, etc.
-- Browsing and similar processes should show little or no difference once all of your thumbs are rendered.
-- Loading images will be slower, especially zooming to full resolution. This will be driven by two different factors - the size of the file and the processing power of your GPU.
-- Similarly, computationally intensive Adjusting, like Shadows and Sharpening will take longer to render. Other simple Adjustments, like white balance, usually show no slow down.
The usual rules apply:
-- As much RAM as you can afford and, if you see bad slowdowns, shut off other programs. A small refinement is to avoid switching from one image to another when Adjusting as this requires the new image to be read into RAM.
-- Keep your Library on your fastest, emptiest HD. (Consider relocating your Masters onto another HD to achieve this.)
There is one unexpected side effect to D800 RAW files - if you use plug-ins that make TIFF, a colleague reports that these run to 200 MB each. Ouch!

Aperture 3.3.2 unter Metadaten die für die Fokusfeinabstimmung von der NIKON D800. Im Nikon Programm VIEW NX2 werden diese Daten mit dem Bild abgespeichert.

Wo finde ich in Aperture 3.3.2 unter Metadaten die für die Fokusfeinabstimmung von der NIKON D800. Im Nikon Programm VIEW NX2 werden diese Daten mit dem Bild abgespeichert.

Hey Kirby
with the D800 you can adjust your focus if detecting a back or front focus. And this adjustment setup should be transfered with the meta datas of the foto. This is managed with the NIKON Software, but with Aperture I have
not found it
Please find attached a short copy of the relevant page from UM of D800

raw plugin 8.2 doesn't open nikon d800 nef files in photoshop cc and bridge

How did you install the plugin? You may want to try reinstalling it or installing the dng converter, as that is what has the camera formats. ACR 8.2 is just the plugin for the mechanics of Camera raw. Normally they should both install, but sometime the converter doesn't.
