Nikon D100 NEF files

I use a Nikon D100 and shot a number of raw NEF files. Some of them were imported cleanly, others display as a fractured photo in Organizer, but are OK when I view them full screen. What am I missing?

Actually Broken thumbnails are shown when thumbnail generator fails due to heavy files, Large number of imported files or unavailibility of memory at that time. So its always good to try Update Thumbnails when you see broken thumbnails.
That is covered by the FAQ I referred to. Broken thumbnails are also shown in PSE 6 due to the bug in handling raw files.

V1.3 and Nikon D100 NEF files - Not so good!

I still use a Nikon D100 for underwater work. I recently updated from Lightroom 1.1 to 1.3 and discovered some very strange results when working with NEF files generated by my D100. There is a dark magenta cast overlaid on every file. My D200 NEF files on the other hand look fine. I went back to Lightroom v1.2 and the problem is gone. I called support and they had the same problem on their end. I realize the Nikon D100 is quickly going the way of the Dodo bird but you would think Adobe would have at least tested this still common raw file format before releasing the updated build.
In any event, just a word of caution. If you still work with D100 NEF files I'd suggest not upgrading to 1.3.

Scott - you are experiencing the same confusion that I was. Here is what I did:
1. Google "download dng 4.2" - it should take you to Adobe's site where you can download the converter;
2. Create a folder in Lightroom under the folder where your compressed D100 NEFs - the magenta ones - are located; I titled mine "DNG Conversions";
3. In the DNG converter choose the source folder with the magentaized NEFS and the destination folder as the one you set up in step 2 above, and then "Convert";
4. When the conversion is complete, go into Lightroom, right-click the new folder and synchronize it. All of the new DNG files should appear in the "import" window. Once the new DNGs are imported (i.e., the new folder is synched), you should be able to work with them in Lightroom normally, magenta free.
I'm a novice user of Lightroom and had never done anything with the DNG converter...as such was really confused - didn't realize it meant you had to take the conversion process outside of Lightroom and then re-import the new images. Hope this helps. Best -
Bill

PS CS3, Camera Raw 4.6 Update and Nikon D810 NEF File Reading Issue

Currently Have Photoshop CS3 & Adobe Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9.

Hey,
Before I purchased, let me get your thoughts on another option that just occurred to me which involves:
1)Editing my D810 NEF files in LR 5.6, which I have, then exporting/saving the edited files as JPEGs.
2) Doing any additional editing, as necessary (i.e. that might require layering or selections..etc) , with the JPEGs with Bridge or PS CS3.
This method wont involve any additional software purchase now.. right? Am I missing anything. here? Since my final output to my customers are JPEGs any way, wont this work? Will I be at any disadvantage. Am I missing anything. here?

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.

Raw plugin 8.2 doesn't open nikon d800 nef files in photoshop cc and bridge

raw plugin 8.2 doesn't open nikon d800 nef files in photoshop cc and bridge

How did you install the plugin? You may want to try reinstalling it or installing the dng converter, as that is what has the camera formats. ACR 8.2 is just the plugin for the mechanics of Camera raw. Normally they should both install, but sometime the converter doesn't.

LR 4 V 4.4: Doesn't recognize Nikon D610 NEF files. What is the fix for this?

I have Lightroom 4, version 4.4 and it will not recognize the Nikon D610 NEF files. This version recognizes my Nikon D800 NEF files. What is wrong and what is the fix? Thanks.

I would expect lr6 to come out any day now though. Perhaps an idea is to use dng converter in the mean time? Don't want you to have to spend money twice in a short time.

HELP! iMac won't show my Nikon D800 NEF files.

Nikon D800 NEF files will transfer from my Nikon D800 to my iMac, but they will show only as a "list" in the folder that I transfer them to. They will not show as thumbnails, nor open with "image preview". Tiff and JPEGs will transfer and show as thumbnails and open with all my processing programs. But I need to be able to see the NEF thumbnails on my iMac. The NEF's will also not open in Adobe Lightroom. Image files will open with Camera Raw and Photoshop CS6 even though they don't show as thumbnails. Everything worked until I installed Snow Leopard.
I have:
Photoshop CS6 13.0 64 bit
Camera Raw 7.1.0.354
Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8
Nikon Transfer 2 Vers. 2.3.1
Adobe Bridge 5.0.0.399
Computer info: iMac Intel Core 2 Duo, 86 Gb on Hard Drive, 3 GB Ram. Camera connected directly to computer with supplied USB cable.
Desperate for any help. Thanks

The same comments I gave for the D750 apply to the D5100 because both cameras are newer than what the maximum ACR 4.x version you can update PS CS3 to.

Cannot open Nikon D4 NEF files

Cannot open Nikon D4 NEF files in Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw 6.6 … any suggestions?

I am now officially perplexed. Tried all of the following
a) Cleaned up appdata/Adobe/Camera RAW => tried opening the RAW file, (each time a different one so I don't use the same XMP)
b) Removed the Photoshop preferences file => ""
c) Removed Registry entry for Camera RAW => ""
d) Uninstalled CS5.5 and re-installed (as suggested by Adobe Customer service folks) => ""
DIDNT WORK. YES, I USED UPDATE FEATURE IN PHOTOSHOP TO GET LATEST CAMERA RAW, NOT RC
e) Installed CS6, went straight for updates and it did install Camera RAW 7.1.
Tried to open the file, same old message.
And, I also downloaded Lightroom 4.1. Couldn't import the files. Went straight for the update, nope, it said I don't need any.
It's now been 48 hours into this problem and never been more frustrated.

Thanks for your reply
.... strange? in the document you mention above the Nikon D4 is not mentioned as being newly supported and yet when I went to get info about this:
http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.html
It says that the D4 should be OK in Camera Raw 6.6.
I confess to being slightly confused.

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...

Nikon D600 NEF files and Photoshop CS3

Hi,
I am using Photoshop CS3 and cannot upload Nikon D600 NEF files--obviously a gap between the two debuts. Are there any suggestions, or am I stuck upgrading?
Thanks

You could get Lightroom 5, then output your files as tiffs to be opened in CS3. I haven't used the standalone DNG converter, so I'm not sure if that gives you the option to save as a tiff also. You could try the dng converter first to see if you can save as another file type, or use a legacy DNG version that is conpatable with CS3.

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.
Regards,
Erich

Problems importing Nikon D4s NEF files to LR5, Bridge, Photoshop CC / CC2014?

Is anyone having a problem importing Nikon D4s NEF files into Lightroom 5, Bridge or PhotoshopCC / CC2014 or Photoshop5?
I am running the latest updates: LR5.5, RAW 8.4, Photoshop CC latest update which, as far as I am aware, are all supposed to support the D4s NEFs but none will read the files; LR5.5 just shows "Preview unavailable for this file", Bridge just shows a blank and Photoshop shows "Photoshop cannot open this file".
I have tried 14 bit, 12bit uncompressed; but only jpegs show up??
All running on an iMAC 2.93Ghz Core i7 mid 2010; 16GB Ram and also on a Mid 2011 Macbook pro 2.2Ghz core i7 with 16GB Ram.
Is this camera supported fully yet?
Is anyone else having similar problems?
Any ideas?

You probably used Nikon software to transfer the photos to your computer. This causes corruption of the file so taht Adobe Software cannot read it.
To uncorrupt the files, see Fix Corrupted Nikon NEF Images
