Nikon nef format supported in Revel

Why doesn't Revel upload my .nef files? The general FAQs says that the format is supported. It doesn't work from my ipad or from Windows 7 with Internet Explorer. The nef files are from a Nikon D90.

Thank you for your reply, and I'm sorry I took so long to get back to you (I'm on vacation).
In fact, being on vacation was the whole reason for trying to upload my raw files. I was looking for a way to save my pictures without my laptop. Your Revel sight was promising but I couldn't make it work. Your documentation said it should and it did not say that I had to be a paid member to make it work. From my perspective, there's no difference between buggy software and a feacture that is silently unactivated. I'd've been happy to pay the membership fee, but too late for that now.

How can I import Nikon's NEF format unto Iphoto

I cannot print photos from NEF on my HP or Epson printers. I tried importing into Iphoto & Aperture but get error message unrecognizable format. Can anyone help.

RAW is different for each camera - there is not a generic Nikon NEF format - what camera do you have? Here is the list of RAW supported for OSX 10.6.6 - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3825

Camera RAW - Crop and save in . NEF format

I know how to use the Crop Tool in Camera RAW and save the picture in the original Nikon .NEF format.
I am unable to set the Crop Tool to a proportion (24x36, for instance) and do not know if this is possible.
It can be done in Photoshop setting the Marquee Tool to the appropriate proportion and cropping the Image-Crop.
However, in this case I am unable to save the result in the original .NEF format (which is not proposed), but must use .TIF, .JPG or others.
My two questions:
1. Is there a way to set the Crop Tool in Camera RAW to a fixed proportion?
2. Is there a way to save the cropped picture in Photoshop in the original .NEF format?
Many thanks for your help.

In Camera Raw, hold down while clicking on the crop tool and you should have a bunch of ratio presets (as well as "custom") available.
To open an "NEF" in PS, hold shift down in Camera Raw, and you'll see "Open image" becomes "Open object". This creates an embedded RAW smart object in PS, which can later be edited using Camera Raw if desired, by double-clicking on the smart object layer icon in the layers panel in PS.

Camera RAW support 2.2 update and Nikon .NEF unsupported image format

Hi,
I Use a Nikon D2x and only take raw images (.NEF file)
After I update from RAW support 2.1.1 update to RAW support 2.2 update, all my raw image file (.NEF file) taken before 13th September 2006 ! would not display - In the Aperture program, if i navigate to a project / folder and clicked on a thumb nail in the browser, I get a magenta / cyan screen showing in the main viewer panel with unsupported image format. ?
This is my worst-case scenario ! - I have entrusted Aperture with all my digital images (all raw .NEF) images taken before 13th September 2006 are un accessible with camera RAW support 2.2 update installed !
I have deleted (the 2.2 update) “from” System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle and reinstall the RAW support 2.1.1 update.
* NOW I can now see all my raw Nikon .NEF images and they are now all fully functional again *.
Their is a problem with the Apple digital camera RAW support 2.2 update, it rendered the Aperture program useless to me for my older .NEF image/files (as above).
This requires a fix ASAP
Martin

Thankfully, I wasn't affected by the issue given I'm currently with Canon. There have been Canon woes in the past though.
On a side note, I never update anything until it has been out for a few weeks just to be sure. Because Aperture is such an integral component of my studio and business, I make sure everything always works before making any updates or changes - including upgrading cameras.
I'm sure the next update will fix the magenta issues.
Best,

Using the Nikon RAW NEF format and Nikon Capture NX.

This is about using the RAW NEF format in Aperture together with RAW NEF capable editing programs, specifically Nikon Capture NX.
I basically agree with Aperture that it is a "workflow tool" and NOT a photo editor with all the bells and whistles of Photoshop or Nikon Capture. Apple fixed the most basic level of NEF conversion with version 1.1, great!
However, as a workflow tool for RAW images, I cannot seem to figure out how to use RAW (Nikon's NEF) files efficiently with the new Nikon Capture NX.
Nikon Capture NX is quite an interesting alternative to Photoshop. (I cannot wait or the Universal version, as with Photoshop, but that is another matter.) I like the work flow idea it uses, and I like that it edits the RAW NEF files directly, layering the edits on the RAW data. If I open an edited NEF file in Photoshop using the Nikon Plug-in, the result looks great. If I open the same file with Aperture (or using the Adobe RAW plugin) the result is basically an unedited version of the RAW NEF file. This is very disappointing.
It seems I need to export the file from Nikon Capture as a TIFF or JPG. The TIFF gives good results but takes up about 10x more disc space. With the JPG I must give up the 16-bit per channel color depth. Neither allow me to have a "RAW workflow" as advertised by Aperture.
What am I missing? Is this something Apple is going to work on by working more closely with Nikon (and Cannon)? (I figure Nikon keeps their conversion algorithms secret.)
Or are we out of luck here?

How do I know? Well if you change the white balance settings in-camera, different numbers come thru in Aperture. But the numbers in Aperture, ACR and the presumed numbers in-camera do not match. I wrote Nikon about this quite a while ago and they wrote back saying we do not know how other people interprete our proprietary WB numbers. See note below for additional insight as how you might look further into it
"The shooting data I referenced is available in Nikon View Browser when viewing your images. Looking at all the images at once, it is easy to compare changes made to the camera by quickly clicking on the separate thumbnails. They displayed the differences I had mentioned before. If you do not already have the software, you can download it here:
Title: Nikon View 6.2.7 Full Version - Windows
URL: http://support.nikontech.com/cgi-bin/nikonusa.cfg/php/enduser/stdadp.php?p_faqid=13760&pcreated=1131989543
Nikon Capture will not report a temperature value for White Balance, unless a manual Kelvin setting is selected using the option in the D200. As I mentioned before, Auto White Balance, and other Auto settings in the camera may not deliver a consistent result in a burst or as separate still frames even if the subject has not moved or changed. You have a cast on that one image using Auto White Balance. This is not uncommon, just choose a different value. The value may not even accurately reflect what situation you are in. It may be sunny, and you choose cloudy. The White Balance is not measuring the ambient light, it's used to measure the temperature of the light reflecting off your subject. The closer your subject is to white, the closer the value. This is why a preset is taken with a white or neutral gray card.
Since Auto White Balance covers a wide range of temperature, the exact value is not recorded anywhere that I know of. In addition, all White Balance temperatures are approximate values, as per the manual page 35. Having a cast on an image while using Auto White Balance is very possible, just choose another value more suited to the ambient light.
Set the White Balance to K , and capture an image, and this will be reported by the shooting data in Nikon Capture. I have no idea whether ACR is reporting an accurate value or not, we do not support that software, but check this value against what you see in there software."

Does Photoshop Nikon Coolscan NEF format?

I have a current version of Adobe Camera Raw. It supports my D200, but it doesn't support the NEF format for my Coolscan 5000 (16 bit raw). Nikon Capture opens both. Do I have to save the files as TIF's to get 16 bit color into Photoshop?

Tif;
After renaming NEF to TIF
(1) cONVERTING TO TIF ONLY RESULTS IN A SMALL PREVIEW TYPE OF IMAGE OPENING.
(2) I tried pasting in missing files into windows system32 from a 30 day Nikon Capture 1.1 software;

dragnkl1.dll
redeye.dll
And >>> Nikon NEF Plugin.8bi >> into CS2 plugins photoshop only> fileformats.
Photoshop stops asking for files but opens nEF neither.

I have just updated to LR5. I also have a new Camera. Nikon D800. Trying to import directly (from camera) into LR. But unsuccessful. Getting the following message. "The files are from a camera which is not recognised by the raw format support in Lightroom." How can I import please?

Hi,
I assume you mean the Nikon D810 because D800/800E support has been there since Lightroom 4.1
Currently, because it is a new camera (D810) the only support is in a RC of ACR 8.6 for Photoshop CS6 and CC, as the RC runs out on 31 August it is expected support will be there in the next dot release of Lightroom.
Current limitations are that only full sized NEF is supported.
If you wish to import to Lightroom 5.5. you will need to download the DNG Converter v8.6RC and convert the NEF files (full size RAW ony) to DNG then import into Lightroom 5.5

I need help! when I am importing my NEF files from my D3300 camera into lightroom 5 and try to use the "copy as DNG" button I always get an error message saying that "saying the file is not recognized by the raw format support"

I need help! when I am importing my NEF Raw files from my D3300 camera into lightroom 5 and try to use the "copy as DNG" button I always get an error message saying that "saying the file is not recognized by the raw format support". The whole purpose of that button is so that the file can be recognized... How can I make the "copy as DNG" button work as it is supposed too?? Thank you

Thank you for responding. So I essentially will never be able to use that button in lightroom 5? do I need to get LR 6? Will there ever be an update for LR 5 that will enable me to use it?
Does DNG Converter work within LR or do I have to upload pictures to my computer and then make a second copy in DNG format. and then go into LR and use them?
Thank you @dj_paige

IPhoto 09 and Nikon's NEF format

I have a Nikon D90, iPhoto 06, Aperture 2.1.4, and run OS 10.6. I cannot import my Nikon's NEF files into iPhoto 06. I can upload and view them in Aperture.
If I upgrade to iPhoto 09, will I be able to upload and view them?

Johann
Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
the Nikon D90 is supported in OS X 10.5.7 and later - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475 - If you upgrade to iPhoto '08 or '09 and OS X 10.5.7 or later it will work

Does PS support RAW Nikon .NEF files

Can RAW (Nikon .NEF) files be imported into PS Elements 11

Hi there
Yes, PS Elements 11 supports RAW files with the Camera Raw plugin. Just make sure you have the latest version of RAW installed and that you are using a compatible camera.
Here are some additional links, as well as a list of supported Nikon cameras:

I have a Nikon D810, I have a trial version Ligtroom 5 and I can not open NEF format, help me please.

I have nikon D810 , i can not open Nef format .

LR 5.6 is needed, and your destination needs to be writable by LR, and you cannot have touched the files with Nikon software that is old, like what you might have used with your previous Nikon camera, to transfer or view the images before importing into LR.
Obsolete Nikon software changes something in the metadata of newer-camera NEFs that makes the raw files unrecognizable to Adobe software. You can correct the corruption with a utility from here:

Nikon Df raw file format support

LR 5.3RC will not recognize my Nkon Df (just got yesterday) .NEF format. Any idea how long before this will be available and I can use this comera with LR?

yes it works:
change the model name in the exif to "D4"
i used:
http://www.heise.de/download/exiftool.html
and
http://www.heise.de/download/exiftool-gui.html
unzip the files
copy the exiftool to the same directory as the exiftool-gui
you can change multiple files at once ;-)
then import to lightroom

Scanner NEF not Supported by Lightroom 2?

I am trying to decide on some workflow options for scanning negatives with a Nikon scanner. It has been suggested that raw image data from a Nikon scanner can best be processed by having the scanner output in NEF format and using Nikon Capture NX 2 as a raw editor. The basis for this suggestion is that ACR does not support scanner NEF. Apparently, neither does Lightroom 2, or so I am told. Having reviewed comments in Adobe forums, some seem to hold the opinion, often vociferously, that scanner NEF is not truly raw data, is a complete waste of time, and scanned images should be output as TIFFs rather than NEFs. Also, despite the official line that scanner NEF is not supported, scanned images that were output as NEF, and saved as NEF images, seem to be working just fine in Lightroom 2, although I haven't tried a full processing workflow on them yet. (In the interests of full disclosure I hold out the possibility that I may have somehow converted these images into a conventional form of NEF at some point after scanning).
I apologize for that lengthy introduction. Here are my questions: (1) How is scanner NEF different from "true" raw image data; (2) what are the consequences for optimization of scanned NEF images in Lightroom 2 -- am I simply using Lightroom tools without getting the full benefit of processing "true" raw information, as in the case of TIFFs and JPEGs; (3) what does it mean that Lighroom 2 and ACR do not support scanner NEF anyway since I am (apparently) able to open and process them in Lightroom 2; (4) if Lightroom 2 does not fully support scanner NEF, is there anything to be gained by outputting to NEF (rather than TIFF) and using Nikon's proprietary RAW editor (which I am told does not officially support scanner NEF either, but still works) instead of LIghtroom 2 for NEFs?

Short answer - scan the images as TIFF and make life easier for yourself.
Longer answer:
1. A true raw file is still in it's mosaiced form whereas a scanner NEF is a fully rendered TIFF with a different extension
2. Same as editing a TIFF, PSD or JPEG. The adjustments are parametric and therefore only readable in Lightroom and ACR. In order that you can actually open them into Photoshop or another editor it will be necessary to export the files as TIFF, PSD or JPEG.
3. It means that they aren't treated as true raw files. Refer to above.
4. There is nothing to be gained.

Cannot see Raw Nikon NEF images in finder windows

I had a problem with my Macbook pro so I had to re-install the operating system, which is Leopard.
Now I can't see the my Nikon NEF images in the finder windows, they only show the jpeg pictures.
I remember this was a problem over a year ago and somehow I resolved it, but I can 't remember how. I'm doing the usual thing such as click VIEW - OPTIONS - ALWAYS OPEN IN ICON VIEW - but this does not seem to work.
Can anyone remind me what to do?

The issue should only occur if you shoot raw. Currently OS X can only display/read certain RAW camera formats. These are OS level, meaning iPhoto, Preview, Mail, Aperture and others are effected. However adobe products are different because they use Adobe Camera RAW.
I would expect JPEGs TIFFs and PSDs, both thumbnails and files, to view fine. RAW files will not view from the D300, but the D200 is supported.
There is no way of knowing when support for the (not-so-)new files will be available. Rumor has it it will be 10.5.2, but only Apple knows that. You can head on over to the Aperture forum and read to see if some have work-arounds.
