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.

  • PSE8/ACR won't show Nikon D7000 NEF files

    Just got my Nikon D7000, but now it turns out, that PSE8/
    ACR can't show the NEF files from the camera! What to do?

    The Nikon D7000 will be supported by ACR 6.3, which should be released soon.  It is already available in Adobe Labs as RC, which will probably only work with Photoshop CS.

  • CS4 will not open Nikon D7000 NEF files; Is there a DNC that will open them?

    I have CS4 and Light Room 2
    Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for the new Nikon D7000 NEF files for CS4.
    I therefore down loaded the Adobe Digital Negative Converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later. 
    Using that DNC, when I do step 1, "Select the images to convert" I get the message "No items match your search".  It apparently is not recongnizing the D7000 NEF files.
    Is there another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

    I just bought the d7000 yesterday and was experiencing the same issue with cs4. I downloaded the DNG converter from adobe and selected the whole folder where the raw files were located (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. It processed the files one by one with new name (without the $500 CS5 pricetag for now). The DNG files open in bridge and psd. Perhaps try selecting the folder?  Good luck.

  • 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...

  • Help with Nikon D600 NEF files, CS6, and ACR 7.3 beta

    I have been unable to open NEF files from my Nikon D600 in Photoshop CS6, and ACR 7.3 beta.  Any suggestions/guidance would be much appreciated.
    RAW was set to 14 bit color, but I can't see that that would matter?

    From discussion with others, it would appear that the files were corrupted during transfer. 
    I have some suggestions that I will try tomorow.
    I have no problems opening old Nikon D700 NEF files in Photoshop CS6, and when ACR opens the file it indicates I'm using ACR 7.3 beta.

  • New iMac vs a G5 1.8 with Nikon D2X NEF File Processing

    Hello all,
    I've been debating upgrading to a new iMac, and now with the 2.8 Extreme processor, my choice has been muddied a little, but I can't find any data anywhere if/how much faster it will be vs my old G5 processor. I'm probably not looking in the right places, but these forums have helped me in the past, so I thought I would turn to the Apple Illuminati.
    I process Nikon D2X NEF files in CS3, and currently the fastest I can do is about three per minute. . which is dreadfully slow, nevermind trying to make adjustments in ACR and seeing the results immediately. Strangely enough, it used to process almost 5 per minute with CS2, before upgrading to CS3, but that is another matter.
    Anyway, are there any users out there who can tell me how fast they are processing D2X NEF files with CS3 and using the new Intel processors?
    I look forward to hearing from any and every body. .
    Thanks!
    DL

    Bought a first gen Aluminum iMac with the 2.8ghz Extreme processor, and it is about four times faster processing Nikon D2x NEF files. . it screams!

  • How to open Nikon D7000 NEF Files in Photoshop CS3

    i have installed the 4.6 camera raw update but it does not recognise the D7000 NEF Files... same for Bridge.  what can i do to view files directly in CS3?

    Every camera model must be profiled and specifically supported, and Adobe only updates the current version of Photoshop when they add support for each new camera.  You should upgrade your tools just like you upgraded your camera.
    None of your new camera's NEF files should be viewable by CS3-vintage components, but all of your DNGs should be viewable by such, and if some aren't, then it sounds like your files may be getting corrupted on their way from the camera to the computer.  Are you using a cable to the camera or are you using a card-reader to access the images?  Using a card reader is preferable.  Some cameras have different modes their USB-connection can be in and something other than mass-storage mode can lead to problems.  I don't have a Nikon so am not sure of things more specifically, but if you can use a card-reader and just use Windows Explorer to copy the images that would probably be the best thing.  If you have a new memory card that could also be something to look at.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS6 doesn't work with Nikon D800E NEF files in LR 4.1 RC

    The "Edit in Photoshop CS6" menu item or shortcut (cmd+e) doesn't work for NEF files from a Nikon D800E in Lightroom 4.1 RC.  What happens is that LR looks like it goes through all its normal paces, and launches Photoshop, and the CPU spins, but then nothing happens in Photoshop, the image never opens.
    This works fine for NEF files from other cameras.

    Set up CS6 as an secondary editor, and then it will use LR's built-in ACR to process the files, instead of the external ACR with CS6. The external ACR 6.7 also processes D800, just not ACR 7 just yet.

  • Nikon D7000 .nef files

    I have a Nikon D7000 camera which creates raw files - .nef and my version of CS5 is not able to open them directly. Does the latest version of CS5 resolve this problem?

    I'm in the same boat here. What I've done so far is to use Adobe DNG Converter (free) to convert the NEF to DNG. Then drag the folder with the DNG files into iPhoto.
    With another batch of files I converted to DNG, then did the sorting and editing in Adobe Bridge and Camera Raw. Then converted the whole bunch to jpg and imported them into iPhoto. I also imported only the highest rated DNG images. (Note that any Camera Raw processing will not be used by iPhoto, but it remains in the DNG file)

  • Nikon D7000 .NEF files are not opening

    I am a new, lucky owner of the Nikon D7000 but, sadly, am unable to open my RAW (.NEF) files in iPhoto -- I am told that the files are an "Unreadable" format.
    Now, while I may use the Nikon software provided, I would much rather use iPhoto for my editing.
    Is there anything I might be able to do -- drivers, codecs (?) -- to get this opening?

  • How can I edit a Nikon D7000 .nef file using Photoshop Element 8?

    In order to read and edit a picture taken in RAW format by a Nikon D7000, using Photoshop Element 8, what should I do?  Any plug in that I should download?

    The D7000 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 6.3 which is compatible with Elements 9 or later

    Either upgrade to Elements 12 or use the Adobe DNG converter to convert D7000 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Elements 8.

  • Question: Programs that work with Nikon D600 .NEF files

    I recently upgraded to the Nikon D600.  With that, I’m unable to open RAW images in the programs that I currently have (PS Elements 9).  Does Photoshop Elements 11 have the correct software (Camera Raw 7 and higher)?  Or will I need to get the full version Photoshop CS6?
    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    PSE11 will handle your NEF files but you will need to update immediately after installation using:
    Help >> Updates
    Also look at Lightroom 5. Unlike Elements it has all of the raw tools from CS6 in an intuitive interface designed for photographers by photographers.

  • How can I import Nikon D7000 NEF files into Elements 9 on MAC Book Air ?

    I have downloaded the DNG 6.5 converter as suggested, but the NEF files appear in Elements 9 as blank grey boxes.  These NEF files open in the same Elements 9 on my PC with Windows 7. 

    Thank you for your reply.  I have tried the update as suggested.   A complete failure. 
    Rebooted the computer many times and each attempt says that the update failed.
    Checked my registration for multiple computers  -  all okay.
    This is completely frustrating...

  • Bridge 2.1.1.9 problems with Nikon D300 NEF files

    I am getting a few Raw files from my Nikon D300 that will appear properly in Bridge, but the majority either don't show a preview at all or are very pixelated in appearance. The ones that do appear fine can be opened in ACR by right clicking and selecting "open in camera raw". However, the others that don't appear properly don't even show the option to open in camera raw. Yet the files are okay, because I can then open them from within Photoshop and process the files like that. The other odd behavior is that if I right click the thumbnail and rename the file then the thumbnail preview suddenly appears properly. Lastly, the pixel dimensions show incorrectly until the file is renamed.
    I am using Windows XP SP2 with Photoshop CS3. Any suggestions would be appreciated. This has been very frustrating because initially it appears that the file may be corrupt.
    Thanks!

    This might not be helpful as I do not know why but .. I have a D300, and while Bridge is its usual flakey self, it has worked fine with the file formats. I tried all the combinations of compression and 12/14 bit and bridge sees them.
    I do have cache weirdness, where it seems to reprocess them repeatedly, as though it is forgetful, but it does process and resolve them.
    I've experimented with the "high quality previews" on and off, and when off the quality is definitely lower. Secondly if it is processing (or reprocessing) its cache, I see weirdness in the display where it may not display the quality preview either for a very long time, or not at all. But generally I've had no luck getting bridge to be usable while it processes its cache for a directory, I just let it finish and then use it.
    However none of these flaky issues have been D300 specific, and been using it for a couple months now, and also with a D80 from my wife, no difference.
