Nikon D750 raw files

When will Lightroom support raw files from the Nikon D750?

Must be one of the most frequently asked questions in the last few weeks. Many threads on the forum already. In short: next version will likely support the native raw. Any time now we will probably see it but nobody knows for sure outside of Adobe.
That said, you can do raw files from the D750 in Lightroom right now already since Adobe has released DNG converter ( Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 8.7 Release Candidate | digital camera raw file support - Adobe Labs it's the second download) that supports D750 raw files. Just run your nef files through this and you'll get dng files that will work perfectly in Lightroom. There is no quality loss when doing this and the files will work like any raw file but you don't get all the camera matching profiles in Lightroom yet. That will only come when Lightroom fully supports the camera. At that point the dng files will get the camera matching profiles too.

When can we expect Elements to support Nikon D750 raw files

When can we expect Elements to support Nikon D750 raw files? What are my options in the interim. I noted that some had used a program, EXIFChanger, to edit their D750 raw files, with a name change, to Nikon D5300 raw files. Unfortunately that program runs on a MAC platform only and I have Windows computers.

Does Photoshop elements 13 support Nikon D750 raw files

I have PhotoshopElements 11, which I am gradually getting to grips with. Recently I purchased the Nikon D750and found to my dismay that PhotoshopElemants 11 does not suppost the NEF files and in order to process my images had to convert these files to dng. format using the 8.7 dng converter. Somewhat vexing since this is a departure from my usual processing method. (with my Nikon D7100 I could open the Raw Files in the ARC contained within PSE 11. I don't know whether there is an update for PSE11 which I need to down load (can't find one ) which will enable me to return to my hitherto practice or I need to purchase PSE13. Clearly I need to establish whether PSE13 supports Nikon D750 Raw Files.
Please help!!!!!

Why not get PSE13 now from this link and test it for free for 30 days. Validate with your 24 digit serial number when you buy from your favourite retailer. No uninstalling or re-installing is required - click here for PSE downloads

How does one convert Nikon D750 raw files?

Does the latest version of dng converter convert Nikon D750 raw files to dng files? If not, is Adobe going to come out with a version that does soon? I am using PS5.5 and have been converting raw files from a previous camera to dng files and then working on them in my version of PS, not sure how to handle D750 files...
Thanks...

No one outside of adobe knows when the will release software the Nikon D750 was announce what a week ago. Nikon must have software to convert NEF RAW files to RGB images. Nikon | News | Digital SLR camera D750

Unable to open Nikon D750 RAW files in CS6

Hi all, this is my first time on the forum so please go easy on me!
I have been running cs6 on an iMac Snow Leopard version up until today and have had no problems opening any raw files from either my Nikon D700 or D4. Today I decided I should update my OS and am now running Yosemite.
I Did this as my assistant at a recent wedding has provided me with raw files from a Nikon D750 and I was unable to open them or even update the camer raw plugin through snow leopard (I took a 'if it's not broke then dont fix it' approach to software updates!).
I have now run updates for photoshop through the Help / Updates tabs and these are all up to date.
I have also updated camer raw / dng converter to version 8.8 which supports the D750.
however, I am now no longer able to open any raw files through photoshop. I just get a message saying photoshop does not recognise the file type. I cannot even view the thumbnails of the D750 images in finder.
I Have found the camer raw plugin in my files (through library / Adobe / plugins / cs6 etc.) but this is still detailing a 7.1 version plugin from 2012. I have also found the dng converter version 8.8 in one of the main folders which is different to the existing plugin location although I feel I am out of my depth with this now.
I am obviously doing something incorrect but I'm not sure what. Any help would be extremely appreciated.
many thanks.

Hi John,
I am running Plugin version 7.3.0.71 (dated 2012). I suppose I need to remove this plugin and replace it with the 8.8 version DNG converter do I?
At the risk of sounding simple, what is the difference between a Camera Raw Plugin and DNG Converter?
At the moment the Camera Raw plugin is in the following folder: Library / Application Support / Adobe / Plug-Ins / CS6 / File Formats.
The new 8.8 DNG Converter is located in directly in the Applications folder.
Yesterday I tried replacing the plugin with the DNG converter in the File Formats folder but this didn't seem to do anything (I deleted the camera raw plugin at the same time).
Thanks for your reply and I hope the above means something to you.

Nikon D750 raw files not readable by lightroom?

I just purchased this camera and found out Lightroom 5.4 can not read the files.
Is there a way around this problem?

You need to download and install and use the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.7RC to convert your RAW photos to DNG, and then import the DNG into Lightroom

Camera raw cannot open D750 raw file

I have CS6 and the 8.7.1 version of Camera Raw installed and ACR will not open a Nikon D750 RAW file. Can anyone suggest another RAW converter to use instead of the Adobe product which is not up to the task.

There is something wrong with your installation of the ACR plug-in, of Photoshop or your OS (about which we know zilch! )
Raw files from that camera open just fine in ACR 8.7.1 running under Photoshop CS6v13.0.6 and OS X 10.7.5

Has anyone had trouble manipulating Nikon D750 raw image (NEF) in Aperture version 3.6 on Yosemite?

Has anyone had trouble manipulating Nikon D750 raw image (NEF) in Aperture (version 3.6 500021000000000.3, Digital Camera RAW 6.0 - Build 761.5, Digital Camera RAW support 6000 - Build 136.1)
I used to be able to manipuplate Nikon Raw (NEF) images from a Nikon D70 and D3200 using Aperture, until the 70 died and the 3200 was stolen about 18 months ago. Recently I did two things: (1) I upgraded OS X to Yosemite and (2) purchased a Nikon D750. I have successfully imported NEF files from the camera to Aperture, but the images do not render/ cannot be opened/ manipulated. Instead, I see a black thumbnail for each imported image with a cassette recorder play icon in the center of each image.
I can view the NEF image in Finder preview mode, either directly when viewing the images on the camera SD card or after exporting the previously imported NEF image from Aperture to my desktop or user folder. Previously imported NEF image seem unaffected.
thanks.

The current Apple OSX 10.10 Yosemite and the current Aperture version 3.6 do not have support yet for importing Nikon d750 nef/raw files. It usually takes Apple six to eight weeks to release a new digital camera raw update file for new Nikon dslr models. Once that digital camera raw update file is finally released, update your current version of Aperture and that will allow you to import your d750 raw files. In the meantime, you have many workarounds. In my opinion, the easiest is to save images in duplicate nef/raw and jpeg image files to your SD cards.
And for now, just import the jpegs to Aperture 3.6 from your d750. Process your jpegs in Aperture - and hope your clients are happy with the jpegs and can wait for later nef/raw image processing. Be sure to save and do not erase your original SD cards that include the nef/raw and jpeg files - then when Aperture finally releases a new digital camera raw file update that includes the d750 - just insert your original camera SD cards into the computer platform and import the old d750 nef/raw files and edit/process them.
There are many other ways to proceed in the interim as well. You can always import your d750 nef/raw images into Lightroom (if it has been updated to convert the d750 nef files) and process them there. But for the time being, if you can afford to save and hold onto your original SD cards and wait for the inevitable Aperture digital camera raw update, this is a very easy and simple way to proceed.

D750 raw files are noisy on import - but not in DXO - or NX or even OnOne. So I'm having to import into NX then export at tiff files. Cost me sizable disk space and time.

poor imports on D750 raw files.. at iso 800 and above can't even use them.. however if I import into NX then export as tiff it works fine.
Kelly

If you feel the D610 was doing ok in the same situation where the D750 was not, then upload and post both a D750 and a D610 NEF—taken under comparable conditions if possible.
Nikon software NX will export things with whatever NR the camera was set to. DxO probably tries to optimnize both Sharpening and Noise-reduction, whereas Lightroom will process things in whatever way the Adobe defaults are set to, regardless of what the camera settings for NR were.
Is it possible you have different default Sharpen settings, or at least the Sharpen Mask increased, for the D610 but not for the D750? The Mask slider will prevent relatively smooth areas with only noise as the detail from being sharpened.

Nikon D300 Raw files for 64bit windows vista machine not appearing in Photoshop CS3 raw

I purchased a new 64bit computer running Vista. I have installed Photoshop CS3 including the latest updates and the 4.6 (Camera Raw.8bi) raw update file. I included the raw file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats. I have purged cache in Bridge and I still cannot view the raw files in Bridge. I only see a gray square with a Blue NEF. I can open the files in Photoshop however. What can I do to see the files in Bridge?

Nikon encrypts RAW file data
ByMichael R. Tomkins, The Imaging Resource
(Wednesday, April 20, 2005 - 02:16 EDT)
A news item posted on Sunday by PhotoshopNews.com reports on comments from Thomas Knoll, one of the original authors of Adobe Photoshop, relating to the RAW file format used in Nikon's D2X and D2Hs digital SLRs.
<IFRAME src="http://208.43.255.194/cgi-bin/advertpro/banners.fpl?region=112&keyword=NULL" height="250" width="300" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" frameborder="0" align="middle" scrolling="no"> <A href="http://208.43.255.194/cgi-bin/advertpro/blink.fpl?region=112&slot=1" target="_blank"> <IMG src="http://208.43.255.194/cgi-bin/advertpro/bimg.fpl?region=112&slot=1&keyword=NULL" border="0" width="300" height="250" alt="Click Here!"> </A> </IFRAME>
Thomas Knoll is currently the chief engineer for Adobe Camera Raw, the company's RAW file conversion software. The PhotoshopNews item references a forum thread started by Mr. Knoll in Adobe's official user forums, where he reveals that .NEF RAW files from the latest Nikon digital SLRs encrypt data relating to the white balance setting the photo was shot with.
RAW file formats vary significantly between digital camera manufacturers (and often, between different models in a manufacturer's lineup), and the manufacturers generally won't publicly disclose the specification for the RAW file format(s) they use. Some will offer plugins or software development kits (SDKs) that enable their RAW files to be opened in third-party applications, but these generally have some limitations attached to their use.
In addition, the companies generally offer RAW file conversion software of their own, either as part of their camera bundles or as an added-cost option. Nikon offer their pro SLRs with PictureProject software that includes limited control over the RAW file conversion process, and then offer the more feature-rich Nikon Capture conversion software for an added cost. In a recent publication on the company's Nikon Pro website, it suggested that it feels Nikon Capture is better-suited to photographers, while Adobe's Photoshop is more suited to graphic artists. Still, different photographers have different workflow preferences, and for this reason third parties such as Adobe often reverse engineer the RAW file formats, allowing them to be opened in their own software - sometimes with even better image quality than the original manufacturer's software.
In a way, it is understandable that companies would want to encrypt RAW file data from their products - it allows them to pick and choose which competitors are able to open RAW files shot with their products, and allows them to generate new revenue streams from the sale of their own RAW file conversion software (or, if they choose, the sale of licenses allowing competitor programs to access their RAW file data). Nikon is not the first company we're aware of to encrypt data in RAW files; Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-F828 RAW files contain encrypted data. In that instance, however, Sony granted permission for Adobe to decrypt the data in their software. At the current time, Mr. Knoll states that while Adobe has signed a non-disclosure agreement that grants them access to use Nikon's SDK, they have not received any response to requests from Adobe that the company be allowed to decrypt the white balance data, which would allow closer integration with their software than is possible with the SDK.
The fact that Nikon has chosen to encrypt a portion of the RAW file data would not be particularly problematic for third parties to overcome, were it not for certain laws enacted around the world in recent years. One such law is the United States' "Digital Millennium Copyright Act", often referred to as the DMCA, which makes it illegal to produce technology that can circumvent measures designed to protect copyright. One could argue that Nikon's encryption of the white balance data is just such a measure - which would make it an offense for a third party without permission to make software that could decrypt the original white balance setting used by the camera when the photo was shot. One could equally argue, however, that the copyright over the RAW file belongs to the photographer who captured the image - and hence the choice over what is done with that copyrighted work is entirely up to the photographer.
Unfortunately, there's no clear-cut answer, and short of a company or programmer finding themselves in court for having cracked the encryption, there isn't likely to be such an answer any time soon. This presents a problem for third parties attempting to make their own RAW file conversion routines for the D2X and D2Hs, as if they don't want to risk opening themselves up to legal action, they aren't able to determine the original white balance setting. Hence, they must either request the white balance setting from the user as the RAW file is converted, or attempt to determine an appropriate white balance setting automatically (which would not necessarily be the same as that determined by the camera itself).
Nikon hasn't communicated their reasons for encrypting the white balance information in their latest NEF formats, but we have to say it doesn't sound like a very good idea. While Nikon Capture does indeed offer excellent capabilities for people to manipulate images saved in NEF formats, many photographers and organizations have already established workflows based on Adobe's RAW plugin for Photoshop and other image-processing tools. The biggest consequence of this move on Nikon's part seems likely to be to push more photographers onto other camera platforms. It's hard to imagine that increased sales of Nikon Capture will make up the revenue lost from camera and lens sales going forward.

Please tell me what I need to get Lightroom 4 to read my Nikon 810 raw files. Have downloaded all versions from 8.6 to 9. Photoshop 6 has no problems reading these files

Can anyone tell me how to get Lightroom 4 to read my Nikon 810 raw files Have downloaded 8.6, 8,7, 8.8, and 9 raw converter files and none will work.

You haven't seen the raw image data until you look at the DNG files in Lightroom. The DNG file contains precisely the same raw data that was in the NEF file. The image that you see on your camera is the JPEG preview that is built into the NEF file. And the JPEG preview is affected by all of the in camera settings. And those settings COULD include Active D-lighting, sharpening, style settings, Expeed processing, etc. And none of those settings are going to be picked up by Lightroom.
It's natural and expected that the raw image data won't appear to be as good as what you saw on the camera display. But you can make adjustments to get the images looking even better than what the camera displayed. And that is what shooting raw is all about. If you read in your manual it will indicate that shooting raw produces an image that must be processed. And that is what you do in Lightroom. If you find a set of adjustments that you make consistently to all of your images you can make those adjustments on a newly imported image and then save new camera defaults. Then those settings will be applied to all images that are imported from that point onward. And will be applied to any already imported images when you click on the reset button in the develop module.
