Do I have to upgrade to view my RAW files from my Nikon d610?

I just recently purchased the D610 and my version of Lightroom (4) will not recognize the RAW files. Is there a way so that I can work straight from Lightroom vs opening everything in Photoshop, then saving my images as TIFF?
Or must I upgrade to version 5? If I have to upgrade to 5, am I able to upgrade to version 5 if I have the student/teacher version? 
Thanks!

Unfortunately, in the world of digital photography, camera upgrades and software upgrades often go hand in hand when you're shooting Raw.
The D610 was first supported in Lightroom 5.3
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So you must either upgrade to Lightroom 5 (current update is 5.4) or download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all D610 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Lightroom 4.

RE: upgrading - there is no specific student upgrade price. You either purchase Lightroom 5 STE (full) or upgrade to the normal retail version (same price either way I believe)

  • I recently purchased a Mac 0S X 10.6.6 which was an upgrade from the Mac OS 1.4.1.1  I downloaded the adobe ph otoshop CS2 which I had on my old computer and now it cannot read my NEF files.  Which is a RAW file from my Nikon.  Can anyone help...please?

    I recently purchased a Mac OS X 10.6.6 which was an upgrade from my Mac OS version 10.4.1.1  I downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS2 which I had on my old computer and now it cannot read my NEF files which is a RAW file from my Nikon D200.  I did not have this problem on my old Mac.  I always shoot RAW and can't open any photos.  Can anyone help me PLEASE?!? 

    Do you have access to another Mac to see if the disk can be read by it?  If it can't then you're pretty sure it's the disk. If it can then there may be issues with your optical drive which might be cleared up by using a cleaning disk on it, one that uses dry brushes (no liquid).
    If you have access to another Mac and it can read the iWork disk make a disk image of it so you can move the disk image to your iMac and install from the disk image.

  • Is there a plug-in that will allow me to view CR2 (raw) files from a Cannon 5D Mark III to PSE 9 ?

    is there a plug-in that will allow me to view CR2 (raw) files from a Cannon 5D Mark III to PSE 9 ?

    The 5D.3 was first supported in ACR 6.7 which you need PSE 10 to use, so there is no plug-in for PSE9 that will allow opening the files from a camera newer than when PSE9 became obsolete.
    Besides getting PSE12, assuming it is supported on your current computer—check the specs, you can use the free DNG Converter available from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html 
    to convert your CR2 files to DNG files that are compatible with older versions of ACR.  Be sure to set your DNGC compatibility settings to a version old enough to be openable with PSE 10’s ACR.
    As far as whether the OP is serious, it doesn’t hurt to ask the question before spending money on something you didn’t need.

    Which version of mac os x do you have?
    Which version of photoshop are you using?
    Do you get any message when you try to open the files into photoshop?
    Did you use Nikon Transfer to get the files from your camera to computer?
    Did you try the File>Get Photos From Camera in Adobe Bridge?

  • I have cs5 and when I try to download a raw file from my Nikon 810 an error message says this versioln of raw doesn't support this camera model. Yet I just updated cs5 online.

    I have CS5 and when I try to download a raw file from my Nikon 810 I get an error message saying this version of raw doesn't support this camera model. Yet I just updated CS5 online.

    I do not use lightroom and  I have a subscription so I can open all supported RAW formats. You will need DNG file for Your Camera's NEF files for use in Photoshop ACR version.  You can open your NEF files in LR it seems so you could do all your raw conversion with Lightroom and save out Tiff files for processing in Photoshop.   I do use lightroom for I do not need its library.  Lightroom does not support layered files so lightroom is of no value to me.  ACR UI is all I need having a second interface to Adobe Raw Conversion Engine would more annoyance than value to me.

  • Am useing a PC. Have Photoshop CS5, suddenly cannot move Raw files from bridge (or anywhere else) into photoshop. Jpeg move into photoshop ok, did get error message 1 what do I do to correct this                om bridge (or anywhere else for that matter)

    Useing a PC
    Have Photoshop CS5
    Suddenly cannot move Raw Files from Bridge (or anywhere else) into photoshop.
    I Can move Jpegs into ps the only issue is with Raw files
    I did get error1 message but as do not know what that means its no help
    any suggestions?

    Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
    The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
    However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
    I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
    However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
    So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

  • I have iphoto '08 version with an imac osx 10.5.8. It will not read my RAW files  from my Nikon D800 - a very new model.How can I get it to read my RAW files?

    my somewhat old imac osx 10.5.8 with iphoto '08 will not read my RAW files from my new Nikon D800 camera - a new model on the market( 5 months or so). How can I get iphoto to read my RAW  files?

    iPhoto 08 would not read RAW files from that new a camera. You need to upgrade so you can get more up-to-date version of OS X and iPhoto. Another possiblity is see if iPhoto 11 will run on 10.5.8, if so you should update. You can also attempt to run Software Update and see if it finds a newer release of iPhoto 08 that supports newer RAW formats.

  • How can I get Elements 12 to load raw files from my Nikon D5300. I have installed DNG Conv. 8.7.1

    I cannot get Elements 12 to recognise and load NEF files from my Nikon D5300. I have downloaded and installed the latest DNG coverter software 8.7.1 but Elements still refuses to load any NEF files.
    regards Ian.

    Hi,
    You shouldn't need to use the DNG converter unless you are using the MAC app version. The D5300 should be supported by Camera Raw 8.3 which should be compatible with Photoshop Elements 12.
    In the editor go to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw to see which version you have loaded. The latest for Photoshop Elements 12 is 8.5. If you have an older one then go to the Help menu and select Updates.
    If you are up to date, then you may have use old Nikon software to access the NEF files and that is known to corrupt them so that Photoshop Elements can't read them.

  • Do I have to buy a new version of Photoshop Elements (have Elements 10) just to upload RAW files from my new Olympus E-M10?

    I have Photoshop Elements 10.  It appears that I need a plugin to upload RAW files and the plugin necessary for my new Olympus E-M10 is not compatible with version 10.  Am I getting this right?  Do I have to buy a new version of Photoshop Elements just to upload RAW files from my new Olympus E-M10?  Otherwise, what I have is all that I need.

    Which operating system are you using?
    If your using mac os x 10.6 (snow leopard) or windows xp or vista, then the below solution will not work and you shouldn't try to install the dng converter 8.5
    You could use the free Adobe DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies which should then open in pse 10.
    windows:
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.5
    mac:

  • Why is my raw files from my Nikon D5300 completely overexposed in Apertue 3 but ok in View NX 2? Do I just have to wait for an update/patch from Apple?

    Can anyone answer the above question?
    Thank you.

    Are you shooting RAW and using in-camera settings, like Active delighting in your Nikon? Then the RAW files will appear in Aperture very different from the JPEG previews that your camera is showing you, and also from the results in Nikon's own software.
    Don't use in-camera setting, if you are shooting RAW, because Aperture will show you the naked RAW file, without any effects applied.
    See Keith Barkley's user tip for a full explanation:
                       The Big Three: Setting your camera for the best Aperture RAW results
    Just in case, that your images are not only overexposed but also desaturated , have a look at this thread:

  • Does anybody know if and when there will be a plug in for raw files from the Nikon D810? I have lightroom 4

    I am considering buying a Nikon D810 but I do not want to be waiting for ages for a plug in for it's RAW files on my Lightroom 4. Does anybody know if and when there will be a plug in? I presume the 8.5 plug in will not cover the cameras Raw file.

    There is no plug-in for Lightroom 4 that would ever give you support for the new camera. Lightroom does not use Camera Raw. Camera Raw is a plug-in for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. If you want support for your camera in Lightroom you will need to upgrade to Lightroom 5, and then wait for the 5.6 update which should be available within next few weeks (unless Lightroom 6 is introduced). In the meantime you can use the DNG converter (version 8.6 RC) to create DNG copies of your raw images that you would be able to open in Lightroom 4.

  • How to view the raw files from Canon 7D MII in elements 10

    I have elements 10 but it does not support my canon 7D MII raw files

    The Canon 7D Mark II requires Camera Raw 8.7 which is not compatable with Photoshop Elements 10.
    You have a few choices
    1) Upgrade to Photoshop Elements 13
    2) Download and Install the free Adobe DNG Converter. Use the converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG files which can then be used in Photoshop Elements 10
    3) Use the Canon software (DPP) to convert the Cr2 files to TIF files which can then be used in Photoshop Elements 10
    Note: If you are on an old operating system like XP or Vista then you need to upgrade your system.
    For the DNG converter see here.

  • Cannot open a raw file from my Nikon D800,,,i have downloaded every and i mean every version of raw

    i am up to raw 8.3,,still getting an error message,,,frustrated,,,but still shooting in Tiff,,,would love to see a raw file open

    Unreadable on my computer. I also use a D800, so I know my computer can read them.
    Opening it up in a binary editor, I see the magic words "Nikon Transfer 1.1", which you've already been asked about twice.
    You need to update this software, or use something else. Old versions of Nikon Transfer are known to corrupt recent Nikon cameras' files.

    https://nikoneurope-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/50878
    for info on updating or disabling it.
    You will need to download the raw files from the cards again, once you've fixed the problem.
    Personally, I stick my cards in a card reader and use Adobe Photodownloader, which is part of Bridge (which comes with Photoshop).

  • How do I upgrade elements 10 to open raw files from my Canon 70d?

    How do I upgrade elements 10 to open raw files from my canon 70d?

    Normally, if there are any updates for your version of PSE then they should be offered to you automatically.  However, you can also check if there are any new updates by going to:
    Help >> Updates
    If your camera is relatively new then even by getting the updates you may not be able to edit raw files from the new camera because old versions of PSE are normally not updated as soon as the new version hits the market.  We are currently at version 13 so version 10 was stopped long time ago.  However, you can see a workaround at this link where I posted a video to get things moving:
    <Why can't I open my RAW files from my Nikon D7000 ?? I can open RAW files from my old Nikon D70's but not my D7000...>
    Hope this helps.
