DNG 8.4 won't read Nikon D7100 raw files?

When i go to the folder containing images from D7100, DNG 8.4 does not show any files to be converted even though there are image files (both NEF and JPG) in the folder.
What am I missing?

I have never used NX2, but I know that it will not recognize or read DNG files. I also know that older versions of Nikon Transfer would damage NEF files so that Adobe products could not read them. Personally, I feel the best approach is to download directly from the card using whatever software you plan to do your work with. For instance, I downloaded using the Lightroom import facility. There really isn't any need to use Nikon software to download NEF files from a Nikon camera. Just as a side note, I use a couple of older Nikon cameras, and I do not convert to DNG. I find little advantage to converting, and since Lightroom fully supports both of my cameras I find it convenient and acceptable to work with the original NEF files.

  • CS6 - Camera Raw 7.1 won't open Nikon D7100 RAW files anymore

    I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 installed on it.
    I use CS6 and a few days ago, I started having trouble when loading files (JPEG & RAW files via Camera Raw). If I loaded more than two or three files, it would crash Photoshop. I tried loading JPEG directly into Photoshop, and it would still crash after 2 minutes. I tried restarting PS, reset my settings to default, restart my PC, and still the problem persisted. I checked the RAM and scratch disks, etc, there was no change with it. I decided I would reinstalled CS6. I did and now Photoshop works perfectly. I can even load JPEG via Camera Raw and it works without crashing. But then, my RAW files won't load via Camera Raw. I have the latest one from what I saw on Adobe's website  - Version 7.1.0.354. Others listed are DNG converter but I don't need that.
    The RAW files I am trying to open are from a Nikon D7100 camera and before, those same files would open with Camera Raw 7.1.
    Can someone please help me out on this. I am a bit desesperate cause I urgently need to edit files on Camera Raw because all my settings are saved on this.
    When I open a raw file, this is the message I get:

    In any event, Kathleen, you should NOT be using that obsolete ACR 7.1 version.  Besides, the Nikon D7100 is not supported by that version, as you have already been correctly told.
    Update to ACR 8.6 for CS6 ASAP.
    Going through the Help menu in Photoshop CS6 (Help > Updates) will/should update you automatically.  If for some reason,the auto updater fails, here's the link to the ACR 8.6 manual install:
    Windows
    CameraRaw_8_6_Installer.zip 
    One should never be using anything but the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR).
    Even if you were using a camera supported by your obsolete version, you are leaving a lot of image quality on the table now.  The rendering of the more recent versions of ACR is demonstrably superior, starting with 7.4.
    It is a shame to be using a decent camera—even if it's not a top of the line Nikon—and be in effect trashing some of its image quality.  Really.

  • I cannot read Nikon D600 raw files with CS5

    I cannot read Nikon D600 raw files with CS5, I have tried Camera Raw 6.1 update but that has not worked.

    Nikon D 600 will work with ACR 7.3 which needs minimum of PS CS 6  : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    With PS CS 5, ACR 7.3 will not work.
    So either you need to upgrade to CS 6 or use DNG converter to convert images to DNG format which you can open in CS 5

  • CS4 won't read Canon T1i raw files

    CS4 won't read Canon T1i raw files. Is this a known problem? Is there an update or plugin that I need to download? If so, where can I find it? Thanks for your help.

    T1i support was added in Camera Raw 5.4. It sounds like your Camera Raw may be out of date.
    From within Photoshop, choose "Updates…" from the Help menu. It'll do its thing and eventually Adobe Updater should tell you updates are available. Run through that install process and you should be set to go.
    Note that you will have to quit Photoshop during the installation process, so make sure all your work is saved.

  • Bridge won 't recognize nikon d300 raw files

    What is it with Adobe?  Every time I attempt to use their product I hit another road block.  First it was using LR and PS on a high resolution screen.  Then I purchased their monthly subscription and got multiple versions of PS, not knowing which is the newest and correct version to use.  Is Photoshop CC or Photoshop CS5 the newest version. Now I can't get Bridge CS5 to recognize my Nikon D300 raw files.  Has Adobe lost it's footing?   I am extemely frustrated with Adobe products and apparently so are thousands, if not million of other customers

    Not possible in CS5

  • How do I get LR3 and CS5 read Nikon P7700 raw files?

    Just bought a Nikon P7700 so I can use the Raw feature.  CS5 and LR3 do not read the P7700 Raw Files....does Adobe have an update and/or plugin for this?

    It depends.....if your normal route into PS is through Lightroom and the "Edit in..." process, then no you won't need to update PS as well as Lightroom will handle the Raw conversion. But if you have a need to directly open raw files into Photoshop's ACR plug-in, then yes you would need to upgrade PS as well.

    Not necessarily. The answer is different for every single camera. It also depends on which version of Photoshop you're running.

  • Elements 9 won't open Nikon D7100 NEF files

    I recently upgraded from a Nikon 7000 to a Nikon D7100 DSLR camera.  Historically I was able to open and process NEF files in Photoshop Elements 9 from my D7000.  But now it will not open those files.  I clicked on the Help/Update link and it says my version is fully updated.  What do I have to do to be able to open these NEF files as I did before with those files from my D7000?
    Thanks...RDK

    Support for the D7100 was added to ACR 7.4 so you'll need PSE11 or later to open them directly. You can either use the Nikon software to convert them or the free Adobe DNG converter to convert them to DNG files that PSE9 can open.

  • How to open Nikon D7100 Raw files in PSE11? [was:upgrade?]

    How do I upgrade my elements 11 since I can`t open RAW-files from my new camera Nikon D7100?

    This is not the Photoshop forum, it is the Camera Raw forum. Your camera requires Camera Raw 7.4 or later. I don't know what versions of Camera Raw will work with Photoshop Elements 11. In Elements, you could try Help/update to see if that will automatically update you to the most current version available. Alternatively, you could try using the latest DNG converter with your raw files. But to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 just go to the Adobe product website and purchase an upgrade. You can download it and install. Adobe will e-mail you a serial number. Since you are purchasing an upgrade, the installation will look for your previous version and validate the serial number. It's a simple process to upgrade.

  • Lightroom 4.4 doesn´t recognize Nikon D7100 Raw files

    I installed the new 4.4. update on my OS X. I thought it should have fixed the problem with the raw files of my new D7100. But it doesn´t seem to work. Lightroom still can´t import the raw files (NEF) from D7100. "The files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom".
    What should I do??

    Did you use Nikon software to transfer the photos to your computer's hard disk? this has been known to interfere with Lightroom import.
    If you still have the photos on the camera card(s), try importing those.

  • PSCS3 won't open Nikon D7000 RAW files

    I just purchased a Nikon D7000. Shot some RAW files and tried to download to iPhoto, not possible. SO, installed Nikon VIEW NX2, and Transfer 2. RAW images downloaded to my computer (late 2008 Macbook Pro, Leopard 10.5.8, Camera RAW plug-in 6) into ViEW 2. But showing the followiing format:   _DSC001.NEF
    Normally, it should read:  DSC_001.NEF
    SO within the Nikon software, I can work on the image, but I cannot export it into PS.  It comes up with an error that the image format is unreadable.  (Nor can I find how to get it out of VIEW NX2 , but that might just be my lack of reading all the info there, will see)
    I contacted Nikon and they told me to change something in Image Capture in my MAC apps. I went there, but Image Capture was already set to the change they asked me to do.
    I tried to download again, but same problem. I tried to download into iPhoto, in order to try and get it into PS,  but it wouldn't. All files were unreadable.
    JPEG, however, does download, with both file formats, and opensin iPhoto and PS, whether there is a _ first or a letter first.
    SO, I don't know what to do. I am assuming all my plug-in's are up to date.
    My D70 RAW transfers fine!!! The D7000, not.
    Any info out there??? Nikon has not replied back a second time when I responded to them.
    Thank you for any help. I welcome it all.

    Thanks, all of you.
    I downloaded Adobe Camera Raw DNG 6.4 (Not 7.1 as I read it worked slow and had some bugs still in it) and backcomplied it to open in a 4.6 format. It works to open RAW in my PSCS3 now. Great! Of course I definitely will be checking out PSCS6 Extended for an upgrade, but for now, I can use this.
    I have 3 questions that I am not clear on.
    1) When I converted, I included the 'original raw file' within the DNG, as opposed to NOT incuding it. They say you can open it later, that it is inside the DNG. Please someone explain to me how this can be when I am adjusting and cropping my files after opening in RAW.? (OK I know nothing about this). Where do I find the file???
    2) I did notice a little bit of color loss, or maybe it is in the Adobe 1998 color space, but it seemed to transfer fine. Is this the case?
    3) If I save in Tiff, would the embedded file still be in the DNG ??It would no longer be a DNG file. I am asuming that I SHOULD be saving an original conversion in DNG for archives and to make copies from.  I really do not understand this. I am saving the original NEF file in the Nikon VIEW NX2 for later use as a backup.
    Thank you again.
