Does adobe lightroom open nikon d7100 raw images?

Does anyone know if any lightroom products can open nikon d7100 raw/nef images?

Perhaps your confusion stems from the fact that there are a couple of different lists maintained by Adobe which need to be cross-checked against each other.
List 1
Starting at http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
the Nikon D7100 has been supported since Camera Raw 7.4 and Lightroom 4.4.
So Lightroom 4.4 and later versions support it.
List 2
However, according to this list http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 7.4 is only compatible with CS6 and later.
So CS5 is only compatible with Camera Raw up to version 6.7: therefore CS5 will never be able to open D7100 Raw files. You'd have to use the DNG converter first then use CS5.
So your choices:
Buy Lightroom 5
Upgrade CS5 to CS6
Join the Cloud or the Photoshop Photography Program
Or stay with CS5. Convert the D7100 Raw files to DNGs using the free DNG converter. Then open the DNGs in CS5.

  • I cannot open Nikon D800 RAW image files in lightoom 2

    I cannot open Nikon D800 RAW image files in lightoom 2.  My raw files will not import into lightroom (it imports jpegs, but not the RAW files) I am using Lightroom 2, version 2.7, camera Raw 5.7. Can you help?

    I would highly recommend upgrading to Lightroom 4 as the processing engine is a quantum leap ahead from Lr 2 just as your camera is a leap ahead!!
    p.s.  you can upgrade directly fro 2 to 4.

  • NIKON D7100 RAW Images

    Is there a support of NIKON D7100 raw images available? I bought Elements and like the software, but it does not read the files of D7100. The files of my older D90 it reads. So I have great pics with my D7100, but no chance to edit it in a way which is acceptable

    @99jon, thx for your answer, I was afraid to hear this . Your suggested solution I was aware of. Unfortunately there are some destructive things going on with this solution (Camera settings, ...). And patience is one of my attributes I miss
    Thx again for your effort to answer my question.....

  • Lightroom 5.3 won't preview or import Nikon D7100 Raw Images

    I'm using LIghtroom 5.3, and raw camera 8.3, the latest update available. I found from Adobe's site that this version supports D7100 raw image imports.  But when trying to import D7100 raw  images, I get a message that "the file is not recognized by the raw format support in LIghtroom."
    I'm hoping someone can help with this, as obivously getting help from Adobe is not possible beyond FAQs.
    thanks,
    -Bob

    Bob,
    I am using LR 5.3 with D7100 RAW files with no problems, so there should be a solution to your situation.  It might help find a solution if you tell us what computer you have, what OS, the specs, and more importantly, how you are trying to import the files.  Are you connecting the camera directly to the computer?  Are you using a card reader -- internal or external?  Are you copying the files to your hard drive and then importing into LR from there?  At one point in the past, there was a problem with Nikon Transfer somehow changing NEF files so that they wouldn't be read by LR.
    As a test, try copying a few NEF files from you memory card to your hard drive using the OS file manager -- Finder or Windows Explorer -- and then try importing into LR.  Does that work?

  • How to fix Adobe Elements 11 not opening Nikon D7100 raw files?

    Installed Adobe Elements last night and installed the Raw Converter 7.4.  Everything worked fine yesterday. Today it will not open the raw files. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem!

    Are these the same raw files or different ones?
    If using Nikon Transfer or other Nikon software ensure you have installed the version for your camera model as older versions of Nikon software can corrupt the latest NEF’s.
    Try testing by shooting a few new raw images and opening directly into Elements, without touching them.
    Also check that ACR 7.4 is properly installed, from Expert Mode.

  • I can't open my Nikon D7100 RAW image in Photoshop CS5

    Q I am having difficulty downloading Camera Raw 6.7 onto Photoshop CS5 Please advise

    The DNG Converter 8.2 is available in the Camear Raw updates section of Adobe’s updates page:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html
    The DNG Converter is a standalone application that you must run explicitly to processes a FOLDER of raw files at a time, and creates a copy of each of the folder’s raw files that has a DNG extension.  Its purpose is to create a package containing the original raw data plus the camera profile and other camera-support parameters so that older ACR plug-ins have enough information to process the raw data.  
    This is an extra step that some find inconvenient and if you’re not comfortable deleting your original RAWs (I never delete them) then you’ll end of with things taking about twice the space.  
    Personally, I always update to the current version of PS so I have the current version of the ACR plug-in so PS will integrated seamlessly with the current version of Lightroom which is the main image-adjustment component of my workflow, and I rarely use PS, anymore.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Troble opening Nikon D7100 Raw files

    i can open D7100 file shot recently but cannot open files shot in April with the same camera.  It just says file not supported.  Any thoughts?

    Not necessarily.  To make sure we are on the same page, are you talking about RAW (.nef) files?  RAW files have an embedded JPG, and it is possible that View is using that.  Are you able to zoom in without pixelisation? (The embedded JPG will be of a lowish resolution).
    The D7100 needs Camera RAW 7.4 or later
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    What version of Photoshop and ACR are you using?
    If CS6 go Photoshop > Help > About plugins > Camera RAW
    We have to ask what might be considered patronising questions, so please don't be offended, but are you completely sure that the early files are not JPG and the latter ones NEF.  Answer all these questions and we can take it from there.

  • Opening Nikon NEF Raw images in photoshop CS2

    I have installed the camera raw and when I try to open a raw file, it tells me that it cannot open the document because it is not the right kind of document. What do I need to do?

    Make sure you have the correct version of ACR (or the DNG converter*) for your model of camera.
    See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    * you need this if the ACR version required for your camera is later than the last one that worked with CS2 (which was 3.x).

  • Is Lightroom able to accept and edit Nikon D4s RAW images?

    A professional photographer from a nearby town said he heard Lightroom either did not or had difficulty working with Nikon D4s RAW images. I want to find out if this true or not.

    Might have been true around the time the camera was launched but it usually only takes Adobe a few weeks to issue updates for new camera models.
    As Bob says, the D4S has definitely been supported for a while now.
