How do I inport raw photos from Nikon D5100?

I have Mac OS 10.6.7 and the latest iphoto. How can I import RAW files from my Nikon D5100?
Thanks!

Run software update and be sure everything is up to date -
The support site is down right now but I am pretty sure that the D5100 is supported directly by iPhoto - you should be able to directly import to iPhoto
TD has a D5000 I believe - he is in Ireland so will be along around midnight west coast time - he will know for sure

When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

This is typical of the default NEF RAW conversion of Aperture and the best thing you can do is set up a few presets to apply to all of your RAW images to get a tone curve and colors that is pleasing to you as a default. The in camera JPEGs / embedded JPEGs (that you first see during import) are treated to the Nikon "Picture Control" settings that are set on the camera - the RAW's as interpreted by Aperture are not.
I have written extensively and even have a few downloadable presets on my site - look for NEF...

How do I import RAW photos from canon 7d to my new iPad 4?

Use the Apple Camera connection Kit and connect your camera directly to the iPad. Turn on the camera and you'll get an option to import.

How could I Import RAW photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?

How could I Import RAW photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?
RAW photos files in sony A300 are saved as "*.arw".
any one can help?

This is well known bug. One day Adobe will recognise that with the best live view system (A350/300) and best usability (A700) they need to take the Sony DSLR's seriously.
Use the Import function, but use "choose files". Your CF card (in Camera or reader) will just be another drive. Navigate down to the folder with the pictures - control+A, choose selected. Then choose copy to new location and import (safer than using move).
Don't forget to tick the backup box.
Hope this helps. Peter

How to work with raw files from Nikon D600 in Lightroom 3

I need to know how to process my raw files from my Nikon D 600 camera in Lightroom 3.6 and Photoshop 4?
Message title was edited by: Brett N

Support for the D600 was added in Lightroom 4.2.
Updates are no longer released for Lightroom 3. The final update, 3.6, did not support the D600, so you cannot open raw files from this camera natively.
You can use the DNG Converter to change your NEF files into open source DNG files that will open in any version of Lightroom, including 3.

Three choices:
1. Upgrade to PSE11
2. download the free Adobe DNG Converter and then convert your RAWs to DNG, which will open in PSE9
3. Use manufacturer's software and convert to TIF (or JPG)

BlackBox Instead of Picture when Importing Photos from Nikon D5100

We had been able to import photos (and HD movies) into iPhoto '11 in versions before 9.4.3 (720.91) from a Nikon D5100 camera SDHC 16GB memory card with no problem. In the current version however (apparently after the latest update to iPhoto '11) after importing the contents of the SDHC memory card with Nikon D5100 photos and movies, some of the photos (in raw file format) appear as black boxes in iPhoto after the import.
So Note the following:
iPhoto ' 11 Direct Import - does not work
Direct import from Nikon D5100 SDHC (Lexar) memory card results in some photos appearing as opaqe black boxes in iPhoto '11
Nikon, Inc. Nikon Transfer app - works to get files into folder in Mac OS X
using the exact same memory card on the exact same computer (MacBook Pro) to import those same photos and movies using the "Nikon Transfer" application - ALL of the photos import into the MacBook Pro in the same raw file format.
Indirect Method of getting Photos into iPhoto '11 (never had to do this before but this works)
after getting the photos into a folder in the MacBook Pro file system using the "Nikon Transfer" application from Nikon, Inc. - iPhoto '11 is able to import those raw NEF files from the folder in the MacBook Pro file system into iPhoto '11 with no problem and those same black box pictures (observed with direct iPhoto '11 transfer) now look fine after doing an "indirect transfer" as described above ( memory card --> Nikon, Inc. "Nikon Transfer" application --> folder with raw NEF photos in MacOSX --> iPhoto '11
Has something changed in the latest version of iPhoto '11 to prevent import of Nikon D5100 photos in raw-NEF file format?
thanks

Still don't know about the hot pink color issue but I did find I needed to download the Nikon Transfer2, not the first version. Newer Nikon DSLR's require the second version and the disk is included with the camera purchase. Select the option to have Nikon Transfer2 open when attaching your camera or data card to computer, then go directly to iphoto to import... don't bother importing to the View NX2 unless you plan to use it as an edit tool, etc.
So, I believe it's not iphoto's issue.... maybe it's Nikon wishing you to use their program but if you really must use iphoto, you just need to go a little out of your way. ugh.

I can't see RAW photos (from Nikon D3100) in iPhoto...

Hi!!
I am trying to import photos from mi Nikon D3100 to Iphoto 11, but there is a problem: I can't open the photos; the files are located in the folder of Iphoto Library, but it can´t be open by Iphoto. The extension file is.raw, but i have updated Iphoto to get compatibility with this extension file.
What can I do?

I had import the photos from NikonD3100 with Iphoto; after finishing, appears a message "photos have been imported ok"or something similar. But the events created are empty, there are no photos inside. Then, I thought that the problem was in the import, but I looked for the photos in the Iphoto Library with the finder, and the files were ther. I think that the problem colud be related with the .raw extension file (but I have all updated...)
Thank you for your help from Spain

How can I transfer RAW photos from iphoto to a separate folder. I want to send RAW photos to someone to process.

Hello I use iphoto as my place of storage of my photos.
I want to take some of my RAW photos out of iphoto and plac e them in a different folder to " send" to someone who wants to " edit".
I am not the one who will process the RAW i just want to get the RAW to the person that needs them. But my RAW are in iphoto
It seems that if i just drag a RAW picture from iphoto to dektop it does not retain its RAW size.
please advise
I just want to be able to send RAW photos that i have in iphoto to someone who will edit them.

Where are my raw photos and how do I get to them (if anyone knows please explain in very simple terms).
File -> New Smart Folder
Photo -> is -> Raw
will find all your Raws.
As described above, exporting with the Kind set to Original will get them to the Finder.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

How can I import raw files from nikon d810 to elements 12

How ca raw files be imported into elements from a nikon d810

If the images are in iPhoto for iOS use the Share to iTunes feature. Then connect your iPad to the computer you normally sync with, open iTunes, select your iPad in the left column of iTunes and in the right column select General. Ten scroll down to find the File Sharing area and select iPhoto. You will see a pane where your photos are listed and you can copy them to your computer. I'm not completely sure the copies will be RAW files but at least you have saved a version of the photos.
I use my iPad to review, display and post photos but I use my computer to actually process RAW files. While I often connect my camera to my iPad to transfer photos I never delete them from the card and ill eventually copy them to more than one hard drive.

How do I display RAW photos from Photoshop Elements 11 on Apple TV?

Hi,
Ever since I got my Apple TV 3rd gen I have been able to simply turn on itunes and stream my albums from photoshop without an issue. The shots are mostly RAW and came out perfectly on the big screen. They also still appear on my ipad without any issues at all. However... Yesterday I switched on the PC and Apple TV and where the raw shots had been there are now just blank spaces in every album. They are all numbered so Apple is recognising where the files are and counting them but none can be displayed. I am now reading that Apple TV can't read raw files but I'm not going mad, I have bored dozens to death with my slîde shows so I must have done something or updated something which has thrown a spanner in the works
A few details
Windows 7
Mcafee security
Photoshop elements 11
Home sharing is on PC, iphone 4, original ipad with same passwords
All albums/raw shots are viewable on PC and ipad
I have reset everything...repeatedly
When googling this I find no one with the same issue!
Help....please!

You can either drag them in Organizer workspace or import the folder. Or you can also use Adobe Photo Downloader. There are many options listed here http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/getting-started/import-camera-or-card-reader.htm l

Send a raw photo from lightroom to photoshop as a smart "object"

how to send a raw photo from lightroom to photoshop as a smart "object" not a flat "image" so it does not flatten the image but so I still get all the adjustments i have made in lightroom to show up in photoshop?

Select the image in Lightroom, choose 'Edit in' from Photo menu then choose 'Open as Smart Object in Photoshop'. The file will transfer to Photohop (Ps) complete with Lr applied edits which can be refined in Camera Raw by double clicking on icon in the Ps Layers panel (see screen shot).

How do I import RAW photos into iPhoto? I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera. I am using iPhoto 7.1.5.

I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera. I am using iPhoto 7.1.5. I read that iPhoto has to update their system and add each camera to be able to import RAW photos from it. If this is true, how can I let Apple know to add my camera. Thanks in advance.

The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
When support is added I also expect that you'll need iPhoto 09 or 11.

IPhoto no longer impots RAW photos from my Nikon D80

Recently I had to archive and re-install OSX 10.4 because of a DVD read problem. Following a successful reload which included the combo updater to 10.4.8 and all software updates my iPhoto 6.0.5 version has stopped importing RAW photos from my Nikon D80 camera. Prior to the Archive and re-install, sometime in December I downloaded the software update -"DigitalCameraRAWUniv200601" this enabled iPhoto to work with my camera. I assume this update has somehow become separated from iPhoto, when I tried to reload the update it tells me it is already installed on my computer. Can anyone tell me how to uninstall it and then reload the update in order to re-establish conformity with my D80 camera.

louvic
re-installing the app will not affect your library or your photos. These are stored at Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library Folder. Of course, you should always have a back up anyway.
To re-install the app, trash the iPhoto in your Applications folder. Then go to HD/Library/Receipts and trash any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
Then you can re-install. When you click on the installer on your iLIfe DVD there is an option to Custom Install. (look at the lower left of the Window). There you can select what to install and what to leave out.
I'm interested to see if this works. AFAIK the interaction with RAW is governed by the OS, not iPhoto - for instance Aperture would use the same technologies - hence my suggestion to re-apply the 10.4.8 update in my first post.
Good Luck.
