ACR 4.1 Issue - Lightroom Issue with Nikon D40x Raw Files

I am running Windows Vista and CS3 and am trying to process Nikon D40x raw files (NEFs) using ACR 4.1. The images come up properly in Bridge. However, when I try to add metadata using a metadata template, I get the error: "There was an error writing metadata to DSC_130.NEF." When I try to rotate an image in Bridge, I get the same error. If I try to do a Batch Rename, the name does not change. If I double-click on the image, it opens properly in ACR and the image can be rotated in ACR, and it then appears rotated in Bridge.
I also tried importing the D40x images in Lightroom. The following error appeared: "Problem Importing Files. The following files were not imported. The files appear to be unsupported or damaged."

Jeff,
I installed camera raw.8bi (size is 10,187kb)in
c:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats
I'm beginning to think this is a Windows Vista issue. I just installed ACR 4.1 on my XP laptop and it works fine. For both the Vista machine and the laptop, my raw files are on an external drive. If I move the raw files on the Vista machine from the external drive to the c: drive, there is no problem. I'm exploring whether there is some permissions issue in Vista that is not allowing me to write to the raw files if they are on an external drive. Ain't new operating systems just great fun!
Thanks!

Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import

Has anyone experienced Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import?

How do you know they aren’t corrupted before you import, or the old one wasn’t already corrupted and you just regenerated the preview and could then see the corruption where what you saw, before was from the preview cache and not the current image?
Is the corruption a problem with the Previews or does LR actually choke on the file and say it is unreadable or show you a gray thumbnail or pixilation starts halfway down the photo.
Can you prove the files were intact coming off the card and only are corrupted after importing into LR? Can you get to the originals on the card, still?

IPhoto compatibility with Nikon Compressed RAW files?

Hi,
Has anyone tried using iPhoto with the compressed RAW files generated by a Nikon D300s? Are they supported?
The 300s can create types of RAW files: 12- vs 14-bit and uncompressed vs lossless compressed. Which of these 4 types is/are supported by iPhoto?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
I looked into it a bit further, and apparently Apple does not support ANY TYPE of RAW file from the D300s! This is the camera that Nikon (who is not exactly a minor player in the digital camera market) describes as their "flagship" DSLR!
(Even more frustratingly, the D300s has the same sensor and image processor as the currently-supported D300, so the RAW file formats should be very similar and Apple shouldn't have to do too much work to add D300s support!)
On the other hand, Photoshop already supports it:

EDIT: yes I know I should "submit feedback"... already done...

Nikon D40x raw files not recognized by Lightroom.

Any updates available for the Nikon D40x ?

It has only been supported since Camera RAW 4.1, so will probably come in the 1.1 update.
You can check the list of ACR and Lightroom supported cameras at:
http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html
You can use the Adobe DNG Converter to convert your D40x files to DNG and they will be readable by Lightroom 1.0 and earlier versions of ACR.

Problem with NIKON D600 RAW files

I have had a new NIKON D600 for 6 months. The RAW files have worked well all this time. However, I recently took the camera in for repair. Upon its return the Adobe Essentials 11 catalague and editor no longer recognizes the RAW files created by the camera. However, those files are still recognized by the Nikon software ViewNX2. Since I use the Adobe program all the time for manipulating the files I need RAW access.
I called Nikon and they told me it must be an Adobe software problem. But the Adobe software recognized the files up the time of the camera repair.
What can I do about this?

Hi,
How do you get the images from the card to the PSE catalog?
There are known problems when using older version of the Nikon software to download the images. Have you tried updating the Nikon software?
The D600 needs ACR 7.3. You haven't recently re-installed PSE 11 and not done the updates have you?
What version of camera raw is installed (Editor -> Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw)?
Can you still open the older D600 images that you took before the camera was repaired?
What operating system are you using?

Lightroom bug with GPS in raw files with XMP

I'm quite sure I've stumbled upon a bug in Lightroom. I look in my XMP file and I see my GPS info:
38,53,25118N
77,1,90390W
But in lightroom, it loads the coordinates as:
+58° 52' 25.00", -82° 14' 53.00"
Now I was thinking something was just wrong in the XMP file, so I load the same image in Bridge and I see the correct GPS information. So I know it's a problem with Lightroom.
I searched the forums and haven't found anyone else reporting this bug. So now I'm kind of stuck. Can anyone confirm or deny this behavior? I'm processing hundreds of images from my last vacation and I am really stuck here because I can't continue until this is fixed and the chances of it getting fixed any time soon seem pretty slim.

After hours of painfully trying everything imagineable, here is what the problem is:
I downloaded the images to my PC using Downloader Pro (Breeze Systems) and initially viewed them with Bridge. Using a Windows XP in French. Apparently Downloader Pro used a comma instead of a period. Bridge understands it this way, as it's just a separator. However LR does not.
To fix it, I had to delete all my images from the library, then by hand modify each XMP and change the comma to a period. Then reimport into LR. I tested this on a few images and it works. Now I'm off to do the rest of the photos of my trip.
I'll report this to Breeze Systems as well, as I think it actually originates on their end. It'd be nice if LR could still read it like Bridge does. It seems LR is more strict and that's the problem. This could be considered a bug by LR as well since instead of ignoring the GPS coordinates or giving an error message, LR seems to calculate it and ends up being way off. For example, I was shooting in washington and all my photos showed up as being in North Dakota, Canada, South Dakota, etc.

Photoshop CS6 Doesn't Work with Nikon D3200 Raw Files

I downloaded the trial version and it won't read these files.
So I downloaded the 7.1 Raw Plugin and I get the error message "Update Failed, Adobe Application Manager May Be Damaged..."
So I downloaded Application Manager and reinstalled it.
Still get the same error message.
Frustrating, I bought a new camera for production work, so many problems with Adobe software....

Uninstall your programs, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall and try to update again.

Lightroom changes colour in my RAW files captured with NIKON D300

Dear All! Lightroom changes colour in my RAW files captured with NIKON D300. Some of the images are completely ruined. I am sure Adobe must be aware of this problem. What could be done? Is there a solution? Many thanks for your help. Regards, Stanislav

You want "something different" but this "something different" is quite hard to define.
I want a result which reflects the result on the camera. Have the feeling the display
of the D800 is not the greatest, at least (not only the color issue which is often discussed)
but also the exposure. Often I think I would need to compensate it, but then afterwards
on the computer the non corrected version looks most of the time better.
I think its interesting to see how allergic people react when the word jpeg comes up.
This is also just a rendered result, just by the camera. There are many options in my cam.
I like the vivid setting with some modifications. And that gives me a result I like.
And if I like the result, why shall I spend way more time to replicate it?
I do not talk about that I would want the jpeg, I only say that what I get color wise out of the
box is how I would like to look at it. I still want the capability to fix for example exposure in image,
but I want the base the version I got from the jpeg view (or how the Nikon raw software could do).
On Lightroom I did not manage to have a profile that looked as appealing to me.
It also consumes way more time in my workflow to fix all pictures manually and results might differ.
To work on an image you need a starting point, I do not say the jpeg look is always perfect and
what I want all the time, but most of the time it is.
You say yourself you use profiles. So why should there not be a profile which automatically adjusts to the camera settings.
Its so frustrating to see a look which you like (the preview image when the pic is first accessed) and
then Lightroom switches to its own rendering which is flat and which I do not like.
For me its clearly something Adobe and/or Nikon should fix, like the mentioned "auto correct to preview look",
Nikon profiles/settings/raw-details in Lightroom or for example a Nikon import module.

Will there ever be an upgrade for Lightroom 3 that will work with Nikon d800 NEF files?

Will there ever be an upgrade to Lightroom 3 that will work with Nikon D800 NEF files?

Why not use Lightroom 4 instead?
I mean, assuming you can get it running fast enough, you'll usually get better results with PV2012 - right? And in the cases where you prefer PV2010 (if there are any), it's there too...

LR/ACR color mismatch with Nikon D7000 NEF files

I recently purchased the Nikon D7000. The NEF RAW files are not supported in current versions of LR and CS5.
Downloaded and installed LR 3.3RC. Also downloaded and installed ACR 6.3R1.
Both work with the D7000 NEF-files with ONE exception. If I shoot a "Multiple Exposure" (one feature of the D7000) the resulting image in both LR and ACR displays in strong "pink"/magenta. All other images display correctly.
If I open the pink images in Nikon Capture NX2 2.2.6 they open correctly.
If I use the White Balance tool (pipette) in LR, I can bring the image back to "almost normal" but the WB values then are Temp: 2150, Tint: -138. Conclusion: the Multi Exposure Image from the D7000 is completely mismatched by LR/ACR. But they are correctly matched by Capture NX2.
This obviously needs to be corrected before final release.
Has anyone else expreienced the same? Is there a workaround?

Can you please supply some sample .NEF images? You can use YouSendIt.com with a target email address of [email protected] Thanks.

When will come the new raw version update for Adobe Lightroom 4 with Nikon D750 support?

Hello Adobe,
When will come the new raw version update for Adobe Lightroom 4 with Nikon D750 support?
Best regards
Frank

There won't be an update for Lightroom 4. The only way you can work with your D750 raw files is to use the free standalone DNG converter to create DNG copies. If you want to be able to work on the NEF files then you will have to upgrade to Lightroom 5. Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw plug-in. Everything is part of the Lightroom program. If you want to stay current with Lightroom then you need to follow the update/upgrade path. That means purchasing each new major version of Lightroom or subscribing to the creative cloud plan.

When will the Nikon D810 raw files be able to import into lightroom please?

When will there be an update for Lightroom so I can use raw files from a Nikon D810?

The camera was just released for sale a week or so, ago, and the current LR 5.5 is older than that, so how would Adobe be able to support a camera that wasn't available, yet, unless they had a pre-release copy, several months in advance, in time for including in LR 5.5
Adobe Labs - http://labs.adobe.com has recently published a release candidate of the PS Plug-in ACR 8.6 RC that lists support for the D810. There is a download for PS-CS6 and another for PS-CC/2014.
For Lightroom users, you can use the DNG Converter 8.6 RC available in the CS6 download set for ACR 8.6 RC.
Because this is pre-release software, keep in mind that something in the support for the D810 could change before final release, and thus your images might look slightly different.
There is one known issue with the D810 support in the ACR 8.5 RC release, and that is it doesn't know how to process the new 9 megapixel Small Raw format, but Adobe has said the final release, will.
I'd expect a final release within 4-6 weeks if it is the same as those in the past.

ACR and Nikon D800e Raw files

This discussion is actually a follow on to an earlier one where I thought the issue was resolved. I am using CS5 extended 64 bit with WIN 7 64bit and ACR version 6.7. I verified the ACR version checking for updates and was informed I am up to date. According to the ADOBE help site ACR v 6.7 is available to open Nikon D800e raw files. However when I try and open these raw files there is a message that the camera model is not supported. Any help on why the raw files cannot be opened with ACR 6.7 is appreciated.

Thanks Noel - after several hours of experimenting, I found the issue. I use a stand a lone software, Nikon Transfer, to download images to the computer. The software allows me to preview/select, rename, and make simultaneous copies for backup. This software has worked without issue, however when downloading images from the Nikon D800e, it does something to the raw files making them incompatible with ADOBE's ACR and even Nikon's ViewNX 2 software. Now here is the real curosity. When Nikon Transfer is initiated from within Nikon View2 software and not as a stand a lone, it works, and ADOBE ACR 6.7 can read the raw files. Again thanks for the help.
