Importing from Nikon D200 on Windows Vista

I have lightroom 1.0 and a Nikon D200 - running in PTP mode - when I import photos - lightroom states no photos to import.
If I switch to Mass Storage Mode - lightroom shows me the photos on the card, but I cant select "Move photos and import".
So I have to copy the photos to my harddrive first, then I can move them into my library - not very pratically
Anybody found a solution to this irritating workflow ?
Regards
Kurt

Thom Hogan recommends transferring pictures by using a card reader, rather than tranferring from the D200. http://www.bythom.com/d200guide.htm
I agree with him.
I do not move photos from the card. Instead I copy them, back them up, and verify that they have copied properly before deleting them from the card. If there is a problem moving the files, you could lose your photos.
I am waiting for all of you to test and identify problems with Vista before I upgrade, so I do not know if Vista has problems with card readers.

  • Nikon D200 tethered Windows support

    I've seen a few requests on this forum for tethered support of the Nikon D200 in Lightroom for Windows. Will it ever happen or is the demand to low? I can use freeware programs with tethered support in Windows, so I know it's possible. Unfortunately those programs don't even come close to Lightroom. Any feedback or timetable?

    I have read that Camera Control Pro 2 works with LR3, but I do not have that version, so I can not confirm it if works. Version 2 was a significant cost to upgrade and from what I understand was mostly about the addition camera support and things like Live View support.
    The original Nikon Camera Control Pro cost less, was available for a long time in parrallel as and alternative choice to CCP V.2 and was one way to get LR2 to work tethered. However, even with CCP and LR2 it was a bit of an awkward hack with a number of moving parts, but it does work.
    I have the trial version of LR3 on a separate machine and I tried to install Camera Control Pro onto that machine (after LR3 had been installed) and the CCP install complains about another version on the machine which needs to be uninstalled first... my guess is that LR3 install some Nikon dll that CCP doesn't like (probably newer). I have never installed CCP onto the current build of this machine so that is why I am guessing it it LR3 that it is sensing. So now what worked for me with LR2 does not seem to work with LR3.
    Unfortunately since LR3 doesn't support my D200 under Windows, I have not been able to try the native LR3 tethering support... but my guess would be that the native support would be much cleaner and therefore a preferable method over the CCP + LR approach, and definetely superior to no tethering in LR3 using the D200 on Windows at all.
    Camera Control Pro is just and expensive way to interface your camera to the computer via USB and software.  This is why the idea of LR3 having native support was so appealing. Upgrading to CCP V.2 just to use LR3 is not at all appealing.
    I have just started to experiment with LR3 Trial and although I am starting to find some nice improvements, I find the lack of tethering options using my D200 and LR3 rather frustrating. Adobe seemed to think tethering was important enough to add to LR3 (which I would agree) but I don't understand why they felt that support for the Nikon D200 on Windows was not important. I don't have any numbers available to me, but I would expect that there are a lot of D200's out there. The model is obviously aging a bit now, but being a pro model of camera I would bet that even those photographers who have upgraded that many of them probably still use there D200 as a secondary or back up camera. Many of them will be very pissed if they find themselves in a situation where they have been working tethered with their newer Nikon and suddenly when they go to use their D200 as a back up only to discover that LR3 doesn't work with their pro Nikon backup camera in tethered mode.
    So even if it was just an oversight or a bad judment call on Adobe's part to not support D200 in the LR3 beta, or the release version of LR3 for Windows, or the first minor version update to LR3.2, I really hope that they have plans to add support in the next minor release
    for the D200 under windows.
    I know my first reaction when I saw that support was missing in the beta was that oh well, that sucks but I expect that by the time they release LR3 they will ad full support for the rest of the Nikon line, so I will wait and check out LR3 later. Well it is later now and support is still not there. So it will be interesting to see how many D200 owners who might not have said anything during the beta, speak up now. I wonder how many it will take before Adobe thinks it is a high enough priority item to address.

  • I cannot view images imported from nikon d4

    i cannot view images imported from nikon d4.
    I have just upgraded to the most current version of aperture and when I import images from my qxd card it looks like it is importing but no images show up.

    So the images show up in the Import pane of Aperture but after you press the Import button they do not show in the project you are importing into?
    Does this happen for both Raw and JPG images?

  • Cannot open .avi files imported from Nikon d90 in Adobe Premiere 6.0.

    Cannot open .avi files imported from Nikon d90 in Adobe Premiere 6.0.
    When I try to open the file I get the following error message:
    "cannot open that file
    the file uses an unsupported file compression format"
    I really need urgent help with this so if you know a soloution, please post it!

    I don't do mjpeg so you will have to search the forum for advice
    But... having a playback codec installed does not ALWAYS mean the codec will work for Premiere editing
    After you search the forum and find the (I think free) codec vendors, you will need to install fresh so Premiere will "see" the codec for editing
    Or, Google
    convert mjpeg avi
    To convert to DV AVI type 2 with 48khz sound so the files will "natively" edit in Premiere
    My GUESS (you didn't say) is the d90 is a STILL camera that has a video function, not a true camcorder
    If you plan to do much video work, you need a tape-based DV camcorder so you use Firewire to do a digital transfer as a "real" AVI that Premiere may edit without conversion or extra software
    For a Firewire DV Camera - look at Panasonic PV-GS320 or GS500 (Note that I have not used either, but they have good reviews)

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 imports from nikon D7100 are flat

    My iphoto 9.5.1 imports from nikon D7100 are flat, and the iPhoto controls do not seem to give as much control as earlier version i am upgrading from.

    Export the photo out of iPhoto via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export  menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop and view them with Preview.  Do they look flat there?
    Are you shooting RAW or JPEGs?

  • Importing from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom

    Lightroom does not seem to recognize my Nikon D7000. I connect the camera, open LR, and nothing happens. I can click Import, but it doesn't recognize the device. The D7000 comes with Nikon's ViewNX2 software which they want you to use for import. Do I really need to use that to import photos from the camera, then import them from ViewNX2 into LR? That seems like a pain. I just upgraded to LR 3.6 so I don't think that's the issue.
    Thanks for any help!
    Carrie

    Carrie,
    3.6 will read your D7000 files. In general it's best to use a card reader, but the camera should work. I'm not familiar with the D7000, but my D300 has two modes for USB: PTP and Mass Storage. The camera has to be set to Mass Storage to read images from it. Your camera may be the same.
    If that isn't the case, try using Windows Explorer or Mac's Finder to drag and drop your pictures from the camera to your hard disk and then import from there.
    Let us know how it goes.

  • Aperture refuses to import from Nikon D300

    After Yesterdays update Aperture refuse to import RAW files from my Nikon D300 as it did before. I get the message "0 images has been imported...".
    I can import to iPhoto and them export to Aperture so the RAW files seems OK.
    And I can still import JPEGS from my small Canon IS850 directly to Aperture
    Larsan

    I am doubting this has to do with updating to Aperture 2.1.2, but rather might be related to Camera RAW 2.3 -- what version of Camera RAW have you installed?
    In the a topic about auto-rotation here, there are confirmed problems with not only auto-rotation, but also recognizing as duplicates any images remaining on the card that have previously been imported. The auto-rotation problem, at least in the Previews, is common to both Aperture and iPhoto 08, so clearly points to CRAW 2.3.
    We need to see if your experience might also be related to CRAW 2.3. I am having no problem importing from a card reader with cards used in my D200 and D300 cameras, however, other than those mentioned in that topic.

  • Photos from Nikon D200 camera are white  after Leopard install

    Backed up entire hard drive and did an upgrade install of Leopard. Photos from iphone and point and shoots are all fine but the shots I need from my Nikon D200 are dysfunctional, both on my G5's hard drive and my external hard drive.
    As I am scrolling through my iphoto library, I see the photos from my D200 for a second, then they all change to a white square/rectangle. I checked info on these squares and the info is intact. I double clicked some of the white squares to bring them into the iphoto work space and while they would not open, the thumbnails of all the photos showed up in the viewing area above the work space. I tried to drag some of the thumbnails into Photoshop as I normally would to work on them and I get a white circle with a slash through it and the photo does not open in Photoshop.
    I downloaded the free version of iplm and could not find a repair photo feature so I tried "rebuild library". No change and the app told me that over 2,000 photos were unable to be rebuilt and to check utilities/console to learn which ones. I did and saw nothing about photos.
    I am working on the option/command open iphoto solution right now but I am a graphic designer with a deadline in less than 24 hours which requires one of the "lost" pix. I have two other deadlines in the same time frame and I am freaked. Anyone with any hope, please help.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Select one of the blank squares in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File' (or 'Show Original File' if it's availabe.) A Finder window will open. It should have the file selected. Does it?

    Two things
    Download BatchMod from
    http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
    And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:
    http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/BatChmod.png
    (Credit to Old Toad for this one).
    also:
    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.

  • Importing from Nikon D5000 causes crash

    Every time I try to use the 'Import' feature on LR5 (and LR4 when I had it), I get to the import screen, can see my D5000 highlighted on the left under 'devices', but LR crashes every single time.
    I have to use Windows to drag files across into a folder on my desktop and import from there, with no trouble at all.
    I have no problems whatsoever with my D70 (which uses a CF card, rather than a SD card like my D5000), but I have never managed to get the D5000 to import directly.
    I don't get any error message, the little loading wheel bottom left just stops freezing, the whole program stops responding, and I end up having to kill it via task manager.
    Has anyone experienced this, does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks so much

    I don't own one, as I normally just plug my camera straight into my computer.  I just wondered if there was a lazier way
    Thanks so much.

  • Cannot copy photos from HP Photosmart with Windows Vista

    I know how to copy photos onto my iPod (30G) and have done so before. I recently bought a new computer with Vista and cannot copy photos from my Pictures folder. I get a message that says, "Some of the photos...were not copied to the iPod...because they cannot be displayed on your iPod." What can I do to help fix this? I have tried resizing and using Adobe Photoshop and I get the same message.
    Thanks for the help.

    I use Picasa. You don't have to use iTunes at all. Connect the phone with the USB cable and launch the app of your choice, such as Picasa. Click the "Import" button at the upper left. Your iPhone should appear in the dropdown of choices to import from. You can then import all or some of the photos in the Camera Roll. You should be able to do the same thing with Microsoft Picture Manager or any other photo management program.
    The reason that Elements is the only choice is that's the only one that iPhoto on the phone recognizes albums in.
    You cannot move photos INTO the Camera Roll from your computer; it's a one-way transfer. But you can sync photos to the Photos app on the iPhone. You either use Elements, or just create a folder on your computer for photos to sync, then create a sub-folder for each album you want on your computer. Copy the photos to each album, then go to the Photos tab in iTunes and select the top-level folder. When you sync each sub-folder will become an album on the iPhone.
    However, I consider the photo app on the iPhone rather limited and klunky. Instead I use the app MyPics from the app store. It syncs photos from my Picasa Web albums directly to the phone over the air. I can also create albums in Picasa Web from the phone, and upload images from the Camera Roll directly to Picasa Web.
    Another way to get photos (and other files) to and from the phone is Dropbox and similar cloud-based storage solutions.

  • HT1567 cannot import cd into iTunes using Windows Vista

    I have tried everything and am unable to import an MP3 audio CD into iTunes using Windows Vista. I am able to import regular audio CDs. Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I would first suggest recreating your iTunes library file:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    If that doesn't resolve it, try pulling your iTunes preferences:
    Quit iTunes if it is running.
    Navigate to /User/Library/Preferences/
    Drag com.apple.itunes.plist to the trash
    Restart the Mac
    Launch iTunes again
