Nikon d200 and RAW files look weird

I just got a mac mini today with the latest iphoto and os x 10.4.7 with iphoto 6.0.4 (305). I got this computer specifically for this camera and my photography because I was having so much trouble with windows and people told me that mac is better.
The Nikon D200 RAW(NEF) files load fine, but after a few seconds they become strange looking and I cannot understand why this is happening. I don't have to do anything other than open the file for this too happen. It comes in, looks normal for a seconds, and then, POOF it looks all strange.
Someone PLEASE help me I am desperate!!!

Can you be more specific. Are the colors incorrect or are there artifacts on the photo. What exactly is wrong with the images?

  • Nikon D5200 and raw files

    I recently purchased a Nikon D5200 and I could not open the raw files in Elements 9.  I downloaded all updates for Camera Raw and it still did not work.  I found a question/answer with the same problem and it recommended updating the DNG Converter or purchasing Elements 11.  I did both and I still get a message that my camera model is not supported by the Camera Raw version I have.  I verified per the website it is supported.  Why can't I open my files?

    My guess is even though you upgraded to the latest version of Elements you haven't updated to the latest version of ACR, the Adobe website lists ACR 7.3 is required for the D5200.

  • New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.

    New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.  Is there a fix?  Surely Adobe make a mistake and not keep up with Nikon.

    I looked at the current list http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html and did not see the Nikon DF listed.
    Would post in ACR forum and see if they know anything more.  http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw

  • Nikon 1 S1 RAW Files and Elements 9

    My current Elements 9 does not support my Nikon 1 S1 RAW files - will I need a new Elements or is there a RAW update that will support this new camera?

    That needs Camera RAW 7.4, for which you require PSE11 or PSE12. Otherwise you need to download the Adobe DNG Converter (Google it) and convert the files to DNG files - which your PSE9 will be able to read.

  • Nikon D200 and iPhoto

    Earlier, I asked the question,
    I'm considering upgrading to a Nikon D200. Can I download images in RAW/NEF and JPEG from Nikon D200 into iPhoto 5.0 on my old PowerBook G4?
    One person answered the question and then the thread was archived for some reason. I was hoping to get more discussion on this topic. For example, I'd like to ask the person who responded if the camera and the software work well together and if this is the primary software he uses for his or her digital photos.

    I am just trying to start a topic???
    I have a Nikon D200 and iPhoto 08 with the newest download. It had camera compatibility updates, I think that is where my problem is. All of my Nikon RAW (NEF) files have the wrong White Balance temperatures in iPhoto. They were good before this download. How do I roll the update back, and how do I report it to Apple as a bug???

  • CS5 Bridge does not recognise Nikon D 800 Raw Files

    I have Photoshop CS5 Version 12.0 (x64). Photoshop recognises Nikon D 800 Raw files BUT
    Bridge does not. I have tried updates but my Apple Mac Pro does not recognise them

    That would mean that you have the ACR plug-in version 6.7 or 7.1 in the wrong place.
    You can only have one version of ACR anywhere in your installation.  If you have two, it won't work.  Look for the version(s) you have installed in Photoshop under the Photoshop menu > About Plug-In:
    Your camera has been supported ever since ACR 6.7 and CS5 can run ACR 7.1 (but not any higher version of ACR).
    The only correct path for the plug-in in CS5 is as follows:
    Very wide image: click on thumbnail for larger view.
    NOTE that the path starts with the ROOT LEVEL Library, the one right after the name of your boot drive, not your user or Home Library.
    The screen shot is from an installation under Snow Leopard, where I had CS5.

    Not wrong?
    Let us have a look at the error message:
    "The following files were not imported because they could not be read"
    This clearly gives the user the impression that there is a reading error where you want to copy the files from. Is that the actual error?
    No, the actual error is that the file could not be written at the destination.
    It is possible that it is not factually wrong because Lightroom first make a failed copying attempt without giving an error message, then still assumes that the files have been copied and tries to import them, and THEN makes a failed import attempt from the destination and gives the error message. But that would never be anyone's first guess when they experience that error message.
    A much better error message would be: "The following files were not imported because they could not be copied to the destination folder."

  • Why do Sony DSC-RX100M3 raw files look strange in PE9 when flash has been used in the shot?

    I have just bought a Sony DSC-RX100M3 camera and use it to shoot raw + jpeg.  I want to use the raw files in my Photoshop Elements 9, which has the Camera Raw plug-in version 6.5.0.216 installed. I have downloaded the Adobe DNG converter version 8.7.1.311 so I can import my Sony raw files into PE 9 as they cannot be used directly. Most of the time these raw files look OK, but when I use the flash on my camera and then look at the raw files in PE9 they look far more pink than the corresponding jpeg files. The jpeg files look more or less as I remember the scene when I shot the picture.
    When I look at the same raw and jpeg files in Sony's own Image Data Converter software (version 4.2.04.17270) the raw and jpeg files look very similar to one another, and there is no pink colour cast in the raw file.
    What am I doing wrong in Photoshop Elements? I though the DNG converter keeps all the information from the original raw file and makes no changes to it, so why does the raw file look so different when flash has been used?
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    Looking at the pictures of the camera online, I'd say there is no lens shade--a device to keep light from the sides from causing lens flare--and the camera lens, itself, was just too far extended and there was a lens shadow.  You probably can't use the flash that close up and should back off and zoom in further.  Experimenting would give you a sense of what situations will have a shadow of the lens or not.
    Your ACR plug-in is old enough not use have Process Version 2012, yet, only 2010 and 2003 so Adobe didn't have the idea to put the selector down next to the camera profile. The toning options are better with Process 2012 so that would be a reason to upgrade, but I am not sure that the Camera Neutral profile in PSE9 would be different than PSE13.  If Adobe changed the camera profiles then people's pictures would look different once they upgraded to a new version and that's not something that's supposed to happen.
    You can certainly download the PSE13 trial and see if things look any different, but they may not:  Download a free trial or buy Adobe products | Adobe downloads   There would be newer minimum OS version requirements for the newer versions of Adobe software so check those out before trying to install, unless you're on Windows 7+ or OSX 10.8+ then it should be fine.
    One more thing, the White-Balance tint is set to +10 by the camera:
    This As Shot WB is more magenta and even when using the Adobe Standard profile, moving the Tint down to +0 makes things a little more green like your camera JPG.  So there is more than just changing the camera profile that you can do:

  • My RAW files look washed out jpegs are OK

    My RAW files look washed out, in camera I introduced warm colours by setting it on cloudy and set to vivid. They look great in other programs, how do I retain the original colors?

    Buddy, the issue is that Photoshop Camera Raw / Bridge don't use the parameters you set in-camera at all.  It may seem odd that it doesn't, but that's the way it works. 
    The idea is that these software tools give you full control over literally hundreds of factors that go into your raw conversions, and trying to emulate the presets on the camera just doesn't make sense.
    You need to save new Camera Raw Defaults to deliver color you like in new exposures you haven't opened before.  Check especially the Camera Profile setting in the Camera Calibration tab in Camera Raw.  Adobe does provide some options that will get you close to what the camera does, then you can tweak the settings further.
    For what it's worth, it's not wrong to want the color to match, especially if you like the color the camera delivers.  I've created Camera Raw Defaults for my own cameras that provide a very good match between the in-camera color and what a new exposure looks like when first opened in Camera Raw...  I don't always leave it that way, though.

  • How to have my Jpg and RAW files in version sets (PSE10)

    I take both jpg and RAW files on my camera so that most of the time I am pleased with the jpg and do little editing, but some of the time I need to really work on a photo which is where the RAW file comes in handy. In my photo well I have 2 of each picture displayed ie the jpg and RAW. How can I get it so only the jpg is displayed and the RAW either hidden or as a version set collapsed? Having 2 of each photo makes the photo well look untidy and full of duplicates.
    Help appreciated.

    Highlight the two photos (using Ctrl+click), right-click on one of them and select "Stack...Stack Selected Photos".

  • RC 8.6 Issues with Nikon D810 NEF RAW files

    RC 8.6 does not correctly process Nikon D810 NEF RAW files. See the following blog article for some details:
    Nikon D810 vs D800E ISO Comparison

    This is very helpful. My current workflow, until ACR 8.6 and LR fully support the Nikon D810, are to use the DNG converter and import the resulting D810 DNG files into my LR catalog.
    I have not yet tried this (traveling right now), but I assume I can still make a custom profile using the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport and it's associated software for my D810 using the RC 8.6 DNG files. This is my normal workflow for all of my other cameras in LR, but the process is direct from native RAW and not DNG (to produce the custom profile).

    Until Lightroom gets D810 support, you will need to use the ACR plugin in order to see the profiles. The DNG Converter always uses Adobe Standard, and embeds it into the DNG. Lightroom 5.5 doesn't have the D810 profiles.

  • Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

    Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

    Hi,
    Which operating system are you running on?
    What makes you think that the raw files are being opened as JPGs?
    Do you shoot RAW+JPG and opening the JPG files bt mistake?
    If you are opening a RAW (NEF) file and it doesn't show the Camera Raw screen but goes straight into the editor then it may be that your screen resolution is too low.
    What is your screen resolution?

  • Nikon D600 NEF/RAW files/DNG 8.4 still cannot read

    Hi all, I just tried installing several versions of the DNG plug in for CS6 and it still cannot read the Nikon D600 NEF/RAW files on a 2014 MacBook Pro.  Any suggestions?  I have searched previous questions, but cannot find one on this very topic.  Cheers, Paul.

    What version of Photoshop do you have installed. If you have CS6 make sure you use CS6 menu Help>Updates. To make sure you have the latest updates.  If you have CS6 preternatural you should see version 13.0.6 when you use menu Help>About Photoshop if you hace a Creative cloud subscription you should see version 13.1.2 using menu Help>About Photoshop.
    If ACR 8.6 is installed correctly it installs in a common place that is used by both Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6.
    When you open a RAW file in Phoroshop or in ACR from the Bridge the ACR dialog should open and in its title bar you should see version 8.6.   You should not need to create DNG RAW file for your  NEF RAW files just to used ACR.  You only need to do that if your using an older Photoshop version and an older ACR. version that does not support your Nikon Camera NEF RAW format.
    If you have CS6 and the ACR title bar does not show 8.6 you do not have all the CS6 updates installed.  If menu Help>Updates doe not install ACR 8.6 try downloading it manually from the CC updates site and see if the manual update works All the Adobe CC Updates: The Direct Download Links for Mac OS | ProDesignTools
