Nikon D700 AF distance in Exif?  LR3

Nikon D700 AF distance in Exif located anywhere in LR3?
Maybe I am just clueless.   I thought it was there.
HG

Aloha Dorian,
Again ,  Thank you for the help ! 
You have been very informative/helpful.  (pls. don't get me wrong ... just because I think Adobe should make this easier ,  OR should have just kept the information in there)
Two things ...
1)  I tried using the web based app.   and used Jeffrey's  settings  ...   which I got a web page  ... which I saved as a file and had to rename the extention to
Name.lrtemplate
Dropped in Path, Win7 64-bit OS :  C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Metadata Field Lists
(created the folder)
* closed  LR v3.2 and opened again ...  and this was not on the Drop down List ...   "Still"
Curious ,  what I am doing wrong.
*** Now, this brings me to my second point  ...
2)  This custom List of what is shown on the LR v3  should not be "this" hard to customize .. imho  (regardless of how easy Feffrey's app is to use)
Adobe, instead of  taking that information out  ... could easily create a  Choice of what  EXIF information we want to see.
Just as this web program is doing.
OR as Windows itself does with file info.  ... Just Check off the info you want .. and Create a Order it will appear.  (the INFO is there, you just need to choose what you want to see)
my point still is  ...  Adobe should not choose "which" information can be Shown. 
AND, We should not have to use "outside"  programs or workarounds to access this information. 
Regardless of how simple it is.

  • Does LR3 include new Nikon D700/D3 Camera Profiles?

    A few months ago, Adobe released some new "beta" camera profiles for the Nikon D700/D3. Are these profiles included in LR3? If so, do I have to do anything to get my photos to use them?

    Mark,
    I cannot give you a definitive answer to your question, but I can tell you what file-dates the different D3/D700 profiles have:
    Older Profiles:         31.10.2008
    Beta-Profiles:          06.03.2010
    ARC 6.1/LR 3.0:     21.05.2010
    So my guess would be that the beta changes have been included. If they will be used automatically on already imported photos after installing LR 3.0 you would have to test, since the profile names are different. On new imports, they'll be used automatically.
    Maybe somebody from Adobe (Eric?) can confirm this.

  • How do I "see" the AF point I choose with a Nikon D700/D3?

    How do I "see" the AF point I choose with a Nikon D700/D3?
    I hear  a D3s and LR3.3  can see it.
    AND,  how do I turn it ON/OFF ?
    HG

    I was told by a  D3s user that in LRv3.3   AF point used is shown
    Seem to remember for  some earlier version of LR   my e510 or e30  AF points was being shown.
    My guess is you would only start looking at the AF points used ... when a  Lens or body starts acting differently. or when it is not working as well as other gear you are using. 
    As my  only   RAW  software used  ... I would like it to  READ  what is there in the Exif.
    at least
    AF distance  (which was there in LRv2)
    Shutter count (there in PS CS5)
    and AF  point used  ...  there in Aperture 3   ... and Nikon software.
    Because  LR  s/b a PRO workflow software  ...  support for the Current PRO cameras  should be expected    ... and that number is far LESS.
    and for Nikon users it is D700/D3 series.    basically two cameras  ... because my guess is the different flavors D3/D3s/D3x   of the one body , the reading of the AF point sb  simular.

  • Nikon D700 Over exposure issue

    After shooting some outdoor shots last week, I found most all of the shots as about 1/3 to a full stop over exposed on my Nikon D700.  I did some research and everyone seems to point to the camera.  As a fairly recent LR convert, I went back to Nikon Capture NX2 to see if I found the same over exposure, and DID NOT.  I hate to jump to conclusions, but it seems like LR is having problems compared to Capture.
    I am interested if anyone else has done the same test and found the same results.  I LOVE LR and used it a lot recently for concert performance work as well as portrait work, but these bright sunlight shots just seemed too much for LR. 
    Thanks! 

    I suspect your problem is due to tone curve mismatches. Let's say you are shooting some people shots and in-camera you are using the Portrait picture control.
    1) When you review your photo in the LCD and look at the histogram, the JPG (yes, even if you shot RAW) displayed there uses the tone curve (and other settings, like sharpening, hue, saturation, etc.) in that Picture Control. Add White Balance (WB) into that mix.
    2) Similarly, when you review your RAW file in either ViewNX2 or Capture NX2, the software reads the raw data *and* the Picture Control and WB information to render the image and corresponding histogram you see in the application.
    Now, if you move over to Lightroom, the Adobe default camera profile will likely (most assuredly, actually) use a different tone curve and color profile. The result? A different histogram that will show either over or under-exposure when compared to what you saw in-camera or in the NX2 software, depending on the particular mismatch.
    The solution? Either use one of the provided Nikon-like profiles (for instance, my LR 3.4 has Portrait), or create your own to match the Nikon's built-in (or even if you had it, your custom) Picture Control. Keep an eye on White Balance, too, as the incorrect WB can push or pull your histogram. For instance, an overly warm WB can clip your reds, when a corrected WB wouldn't.
    After years using ViewNX2, exclusively (plus PSP X2 for final editing), I've just (this weekend!) switched to a LR3-CS5 workflow. Part of what kept me away from Adobe products for so long was the reluctance to give up Nikon software's "full insight" into the in-camera settings. In the end, I decided that this histogram I see in my camera is ficticious, anyway, a by-product of one possible interpretation of the RAW data. Perhaps Nikon is better qualified to interpret that RAW data, but based on the quality and robustness of their software, who knows?
    Anyway, long story short: match your tone curve and WB, and you should get similar results. My early experimentation with D700 and D7000 photos this weekend, when I did a couple of quick cross-checks of what ViewNX2 gave me vs. LR3 with the Portrait control/profile indicates my results are reasonably close. As with all things, YMMV.

  • Can't import RAW files into iPhoto 6 Library from Nikon D700

    For whatever reason I am unable to import RAW files from my Nikon D700 into my iPhoto 6 (version 6.0.6) Library. I can import JPEGs from the D700, but it's no-go with the RAW files. When I attempt to import the RAW files I get the following message:
    "Unreadable Files
    The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)."
    Can anybody solve this mystery for me?

    I presume that the economically-priced Mac Box Set containing OS X 10.5.6 Leopard, iLife '09, and iWork '09 would be the way to go. Do you concur?
    Well that's the cheapest way to do it. You could, of course, buy a new Mac
    Do you feel that my 20" Intel iMac--details listed below--would have any problems handling the upgraded programs?
    It will have no problems with the updated OS or applications.
    'm uneasy at the thought of upgrading my operating system, but I presume that chances of running into problems are much less than if I were upgrading a Windows OS. In case a problem arises my entire hard drive is backed up with a 1T external hard drive using SuperDuper software, but I prefer not to encounter a situation requiring me to use it for restoration purposes.
    The key to any update or upgrade is to make sure that you have a good working back up. That way, should anything go wrong, you have a quick way back to where you started.
    My tips for upgrading the OS? Disconnect the disk with the back up and all other peripherals when you do the Upgrade. Pop the disk in. Do a standard Upgrade. (There are some folks who swear that you should wipe your HD and start over from scratch before you do, but, frankly, that's overkill. I've been upgrading Macs since 1992 and never had a problem.

  • Cannot use the Tether Feature w/ Nikon D700 in Windows 7 Pro 64?

    Just upgraded Lightroom from 2.7 to 3.0, then to 3.3. Am using a Nikon D700 with Windows 7 Pro 64bit.
    Windows does see the camera, Lightroom does not see the camera. This same camera and USB cable do work fine on my MacbookPro snow leopard. i have searched the net but have not discovered a fix for this problem.
    HELP!!!

    Found the answer to this problem. The CF card in the D700 must have no images on it. I had three images on the card, and, after I deleted these, Lightroom sees and fires the D700.
    DUH!!!!!!!!

  • I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...

    I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...  Is there a plug in or update I can get?  I can't afford new software after new camera and new lense!

    Lightroom 1.4.1 does not support native (NEF) files from the D700 because the camera didn't even exist when it was released. To get support you have two options: upgrade to Lr 2.x (paid for upgrade) or convert your NEF files to DNG.
    DNG converter 5.4 can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ (see right hand side of page)

  • Till now Aperture worked well in mavericks, "suddenly?" the import of raw files from Nikon D700 is no more supported, only jpg's are accepted. Any idea what happened?

    Aperture (3.5.1)  worked very well in Maverick (OSX 10.9). After having worked on pictures, "suddenly" messages poped up saying that "his os not a supported format" and the thumbnailpicture became black. Since then Aperture does no more accept the import of the Nikon D700 raw format (NEF); omnly jpg is accepted.
    I'm very puzzeled, can you help?
    Thanks,
    Felix

    Thanks, Felix. A tiny bit of RAW finetuning such as sharpening also helps.
    But I also just discovered several other weird and unpredictable effects:
    image viewer => right click on image => menu appears => another click on image => menu disappears and image is displayed as rotated by 180 degree
    image viewer => right click on image => menu appears => edit with plugin => image is displayed as rotated by 180 degree => plugin opens => cancel plugin => image is rotated to normal again
    another image got flipped horizontaly somehow.
    or weird effects like this:
    Something must be seriously wrong on my Mac.

  • Nikon D700   FX format RAW download

    Have just purchased new Nikon D700 and want to download RAW images in FX format but all I Get is private/var/folders/pF/pF0rjz5lHAudOVgkt-Dmxk+TI/-Tmp-/iPhoto/DSC_0069.NEF Anyone any ideas please

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    You can't.
    The D700 is not supported for RAW at this time on iPhoto or Aperture. You're going to have to use somethign else. It's one of the perils of being an early adopter. And this is a User-to-User forum so, no, no one here knows what timeline if any Apple have for adding support.

  • Raw Images (Nikon D700 NEFs) suddenly turn unsupported

    Hi there,
    for some of my managed Nikon D700 NEFs I start geeting an 'unsupported image format' error. I worked with those files a couple of months ago and everything was fine, no errors. So, the problem must have came up recently. The files wont show up in Preview neither but open fine in Capture NX2 which brings me to the assumption, that it is an OS X raw compatability issue.
    I browsed through the related discussions but couldn't find a way that resolved the problem. What puzzles me is the fact, that obviously only few people are experiencing similar issues. I'm afraid, that something might be "broken" in my system installation. To double check this I would like to provide one of my unrecognized NEF files:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/1sx5bsr794xvbmj/_DSC7035.NEF
    If this file works for you, it's not an Aperture issue, but a single problem on my (few) machine(s). The answer to this would be of great help in finding the right fix. Any feedback is highly appreciated! Thanks!

    Thanks Leonie, Thanks Jerry.
    Leonie,
    I flipped through my library. It seems that the problem started first with pics, I imported March 2011. Prior imports look fine. (Interestingly it started right after an air trip. But if the security scans somehow damaged my cards and subsequently the pics, why would you be able to open them...? )
    I can't find anything which could be special about the relevant files: In fact I sometimes shot a series of pics of the same subject in a row. Some work, some are unsupported. The filenames I didn't change (standard out of camera format "_DSC####.NEF", file system is Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) btw.).
    I tried all of the 3 troubleshooting steps of Aperture several times. I tried repairing permissions for the whole drive. I also tried importing directly from camera besides using a card reader, both, into existing and new libraries. Importing pics from iPhone and an old Lumix is ok (but these are not raw...).
    I will try a different user account and report back.
    Many thanks again to all for your help.

  • Nikon D700 White balance importing issues

    Hi Guys,
    I am using a nikon d700 with Lightroom 3.2 If I shoot tethered, the correct white balance appears and gets loaded in Lightroom, but if I import them after the shoot, from the card, it loads a completely different white balance value and I have to go back and correct them one by one. I am not using any profile, just leave it on the standard Adobe version because the Nikon profiles are significantly reducing the quality on raw file. Does someone have an idea what I am doing wrong to be able to load the correct white balance during importing?
    Thanks

    Are you shooting RAW? If so there is no WB embedded in a RAW file, you set the WB in LR. Setting "As Shot" and a calibration profile that matches the camera setting (if one exists) will usually closest to the wb embedded in a jpg produced by the camera processing.
    You may want to check out the FAQ, this one is pertinent.

  • Nikon d700 tethered with lightroom3

    I am interested in shooting with my D700 and lightroom 3 tethered.  Is it possible for the image to be recored both on the card and on the tethered computer?

    I like to keep my file numbering sequential and unique, so when I shoot tethered, the camera doesn't count it as an actuation. Is there a way around this? For example, I have my camera set to coninuous file numbering. I'm at DL3_6553. If I shoot tethered, say 100 shots, and then go back to shooting untethered, my next fimage number is DL3_6554, not DL3_6653. How do I get my Nikon D700 to click over the 100 tethered shots? Thanks

  • Why does my Photoshop Cs6 not let me view my Nikon D7100 photos in Camera Raw and photoshop when it does my Nikon D700?

    Why does my Photoshop CS6 not allow me to download my Nikon D7100 photos into camera raw and photoshop when it does my NIkon d700?

    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    D700 first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 5.1 (CS6 ships with ACR 7.0)
    D7100 first supported in ACR 7.4
    You probably just need to update Camera Raw in CS6 via Help > Updates.
    Confirm which ACR version you have installed via Help (Win) or Photoshop (Mac) > About Plug-In > Camera Raw.

  • Nikon D700 & Photoshop CS2

    Ich arbeitete bisher mit der Nikon D200 wo ich "NEF" mit Photoshop CS2 ohne Probleme bearbeiten konnte.
    Mit der Nikon D700 habe ich ein paar Testbilder gemacht, kann diese jetzt aber im "NEF" Format nicht öffnen.
    Was - wo muss ich updaten?
    unter Information zur neusten Camera Raw 4_5 für CS3, ist die Nikon D700 nicht auf der Liste.
    Was kann ich für mein CS2 updaten.

    Hallo,
    mit dem Problem stehst Du leider nicht alleine da - siehe auch dieser Beitrag im Forum "Fotografie" (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b648de/4?14@@)
    Liegt wohl weniger an Adobe, sondern daran, dass Nikon, Canon u. Co. ständig Ihre RAW-Formate ändern, um die Kunden an ihre eigene Software zu binden.
    Kleiner Vorschlag:
    Besorg dir doch einfach die Demo der aktuellsten Nikon Capture NX zur Überbrückung der nächsten Wochen
    Ein Problem hab ich aber fast vergessen: Meines Wissens sind die neuesten Camera-RAW-Plugins (>Vers. 3.7) für PS CS2 "unverdaulich".
