Read raw files for nikon d5200 camera

I have given up using raw files for several Nikon bodies such as the d5200 on Adobe software since Adobe no longer supports these files even with the updates that are supposed to support these files. I can open the raw files fine using Nikon software to work on them and then save them as a tiff or jpeg to be used in photoshop, but this seems rather time consuming plus I lose the advantage of working on raw files in Photoshop. You would think that a company like Adobe would make it easy to open raw files for all cameras. Some bodies like the Nikon d300 raw files still work fine on Adobe software.

ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) versions are specific to different versions of Photoshop.
According to this link on Adobe's website regarding supported cameras
The Nikon 5200 required at least ACR 7.3, but you need Photoshop CS6 to run ACR 7.3 It won't work with older versions of Photoshop.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
You can download the latest version of DNG Converter and convert your 5200 files to DNGs that can then be opened in earlier versions of Photoshop.
Here is the link for Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.4
Here is the link for Mac: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh
The DNG Converter only works on folders of files, don't try to select an individual file to convert, Choose the FOLDER.

How to Install Plug-in for PS cs5 to open RAW (.NEF) file for Nikon D810 Camera

I need someone to walk me through how to install a Plug-in for PS cs5 to open RAW (.NEF) file for Nikon D810 Camera.
I haven't used photoshop in ages and I got a new camera. I have been on the phone with Adobe (no help) and spent a couple of hours online trying to figure this out. I'm confused, frustrated and about to throw my computer out the window.
Also, I placed this in the "Photoshop for Beginners" since Photoshop CS5 doesn't appear anymore. I know CS5 is outdated but I spent hundreds of dollars on this program and you would think adobe would still honor its product.
Any guidance is much appreciated.
AJ

Odds are cs5 is too old. If you do a search on my the main Adobe website there is a list of compatible cameras for the last known update to camera raw for cs5.
Each version of Photoshop only gets so many updates for camera raw then it is necessary to upgrade Photoshop to get the next update for camera raw.
So you currently have 4 choices.
1 upgrade Photoshop
2 get Lightroom - latest version
3 get Photoshop elements -latest version
4 get dng converter - this will download the latest version an is the only option that is free.
The dng converter can be found by searching Adobe website.

Raw files for nikon d810 not showing a picture in preview. Have camera raw plug in 8.6.0.250 . File will open in raw but no picture ahead of time.

Raw files for Nikon D810 not showing a picture in preview for photoshop cs6 . Have camera raw plugin 8.6.0.250 File will open in ACR and process but no picture before opening raw file.

Are you referencing Apple's Preview application or the Preview panel in Bridge? Huge difference.
Try purging the cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.

Where can I find the plugin to open camera raw files for Nikon D810 for Photoshop CS5.1? I've looked around the site but cannot get this to work.. Thank you.

See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
You could use the free DNG Converter.

Would like to purchase PSE 12 to process Camera Raw files for the following cameras: Nikon D800, Nikon DF, Canon G9 and Pentax K-3 does the Raw Converter that comes with PSE 12 when purchased recognize the cameras listed in the question or do I need to download the camera Raw Version 8.3 ?

While the G9 RAW files can be read by Adobe Camera RAW and Lightroom, these file are unsupported at this time. Here is a link to Adobe's latest list of cameras that are supported and this list came out yesterday http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html
I have not done a comparison between Lightroom and Canon's software but others have and say that Canon's software is clearly better. I am sure when Adobe updates their software again to include the G9 it will be a very good RAW converter as it is will most other cameras.

I'm having troubles converting my raw files from Nikon D5200 (NEF) to DNG. I tried using Lightroom 4, but it didn't identify the folder containing the files. So i downloaded the latest DNG converter but that too didn't identify the files kept in the folder location. So I downloaded DNG converter v7.3 for D5200. It identifies the folder and files; but it is giving me parsing error on trying to convert files. I'm running Windows Vista Home Edition SP1. Kindly advise. Thank you.

I probably missed this detail in what you’ve posted, but do you see the thumbnails of the three cameras’ raw files in Finder if you don’t convert to DNG?
What has happened in the past is that the Apple raw interpreter doesn’t read thumbnails of DNGs it doesn’t like, where at least one thing it didn’t used to like was embedded lens corrections for mirrorless cameras. Are the Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless—meaning there is no optical viewfinder and everything is seen on an LCD screen or perhaps an electronic view finder? If so the reason these are different is that the camera is doing the lens distortion corrections automatically and this information is stored in the raw files and in the DNGs but Apple doesn’t know how to use these embedded lens corrections or doesn’t know how to read the newer DNG spec that does allow for this information to be embedded in the DNG, at least.
Apple could just extract the embedded jpg preview and ignore the other parts of the file it doesn’t understand, but it apparently doesn’t do this.
What I’m not sure about is if the Apple raw interpreter still has this problem or if you’re on an older system without the latest updates for camera raw decoding by Apple.

Yes, but it's not necessary to use DNG Converter with CC while it is still current software. Camera Raw 8.7RC can be used. If you don't want to use an RC then DNG Converter 8.7RC can be used to create DNG files for any version of Camera Raw. There is a Compatibility setting in DNG Converter for older versions of Camera Raw.

How can I get Elements 13 to read RAW files from Nikon D750?

I've upgrade my camera from the Nikon D3200 to the Nikon D750. With the D3200, I used Elements 11 to edit both JPEG and RAW files, but found out today Elements 11 isn't compatible with the D750 to read RAW files. I downloaded the trial version of Elements 13--which is compatible per the Adobe help desk, but the RAW files shot with the D750 still aren't being seen; however, I do see RAW files that I took with the D3200.
Same memory card is being used and I formatted the card when I changed it from one camera to the other.
What am I doing wrong? I almost always shoot RAW, so I need to be able to the files.
I'm wondering if Elements 13 really is compatible with the D750.
I want to add I'm using a MAC.
Thank you!
Shannon

I was able to figure out the issue--the D750 files must be converted to DNG files first, then I can upload them to Elements and edit them as I would a RAW file.
If anyone else is having this issue, I found the video helpful: Learning | LR/PS - The Advantages of the DNG File Format | Photoshop.com.
You can find the free DNG converter here: Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
This works for both MAC and Windows.

Photoshop CS5- raw files from Nikon D600 camera.

I need to know how to get Photoshop CS5 to read Raw files from my new Nikon D600 camera. I do NOT want to have to buy another version of Photoshop or have to buy Lightroom. This is really distressing me!

I think that if a camera manufacturer is convinced that their proprietary software gets a better result from their RAW data than Adobe’s ACR it is only fair that they try to get their customers to use their software.
For many users the potential difference in quality seems to be utterly irrelevant, though, and they are simply being inconvenienced.
But fortunately for the camera makers many of those users seem to blame Adobe … even though with DNG Adobe has already provided a format that they could use if they wanted to make their data more open.
If using DNG Converter really is an
annoying extra step
for you I think the Adobe employee’s advice was basically correct and you may need to purchase the current version of Photoshop (or Lightroom).

Reading RAW files from Nikon D600 in CS5.

I have installed the latest plug in updates for camera raw into cs5 but still cannot read raw files. Any advice? Many thanks in advance.

Support for the D600 was added in Camera Raw 7.3 which will only work in Photoshop CS6. You choise is to update to CS6 or doenload the free DNG Converter 7.3 (scroll down to the Downloads) and convert the D600 NEF files to DNG DNG files.

Support in Elements 10 for RAW files from Nikon D5200.

I recently purchased a Nikon D5200. Elements 10 will not recognize NEF files from this camera. Has anyone else had this problem?

Everyone with PSE 10 has that problem. You need to do one of three things:
1. Use the nikon software to convert your raw files and only send the edited tiffs you create to PSE.
2. Upgrade to PSE 11.
3. Download the free DNG converter from adobe's website and use that to convert your nefs to a format your version of the raw converter can use.

Photoshop CS4 will not read Raw files from Nikon D60. [was: No automatic updates for my PS CS 4 on windows (for reading .Nef files)?]

Hi
I have been using PS CS4 for several years.
Yesterday, I went to PS CS4 help and selected "updates", but I get the message "There are not updates available at this time; Please note that some updates for the following products cannot be determined at this time: Adobe Updater".
I need the updates because I just purchased a Nikon D60 and my Photoshop does not read the .NEF files produced by the camera.
any idea, please?
thanks

I need the updates because I just purchased a Nikon D60 and my Photoshop does not read the .NEF files produced by the camera.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Do you really mean the Nikon D60 which shipped in 2008? Was it purchased secondhand?
The Nikon D60 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 4.4.
Photoshop CS4 ships with Camera Raw 5.0 so it can read D60 NEF files out of the box. No updates required.
If you do mean the D60 then something else must be going on. e.g. are you using Nikon software to transfer files from camera to computer?

Running CS5 on a Macbook Pro. Will not read raw files for a new Canon T5i camera.Can update the current RAW?

Running CS5 on a Madbook Pro. Will not open RAW image files from a new Canon TRi camera. Can I update to latest RAW processor with current CS5, or must I update to CS6 on the MacBook?
Jack

ACR 7.4 is the one that will read T5i raw files and it is CS6 specific. You can upgrade for $200 Standard or $400 Extended in you need 3D support.
You can also see if converting your T5i files to .dng format will do just as well.

Having trouble reading /opening raw files from NIKON 1AW1 camera inn lightroom 5.2

We have the new Nikon 1AW1 camera and it shoots in raw and jpeg format. I prefer RAW. We have opened and processed 1000s of raw images from our other Nikon DSLRs. With this new camera keep getting the unrecognized format?? any hints??

The two pictures provided seem to have different magenta/green (Tint) balance from each other, but without knowing what WB is set in camera or what WB is set in LR that could be what is expected.
The original problem as described seemed to be that a single picture changed its Color (perhaps WB) and Tone (light/dark/contrast) from when viewed on camera to when viewed in LR. Slight changes in color and tone would be expected because Adobe doesn't have access to nor is trying to reproduce the raw-conversion only the camera manufacturer knows the specifics of, but WB is something Adobe can read and attempts to make the same as far as neutrals still being neutral. Seeing two different pictures with an obvious shift in WB isn't an illustration of things looking different between the camera and LR for a specific image, but maybe the WB variance is what you're really wondering about.
What WB mode were you shooting in with the camera, Auto WB? And what WB mode do you have set for these two images in LR (As Shot, Auto, Custom, etc), and what specific WB numbers do you see in LR for these two images? Also, what camera profile do you have set in the camera and what camera profile do you have set in LR?
If your camera is set to Auto WB then both the camera and LR would show whatever WB the camera determined for each image and that could vary from one image to the next. The way to fix the WB variance in LR is to figure out what WB to use and then synchronize that across a group of raw images so they all have the same WB.
One confusing thing is that if you like the WB on a particular image and synchronize that image to a group of others, but it happens that the image mode of the image you are syncing to is As Shot, then you won't be syncing the specific Temp and Tint values between the images, you'll be syncing the As Shot mode between all the images so nothing will appear to change. If you are starting with an image WB you like that still says As Shot then tweak the WB slightly up and back, so the same numbers are there in Custom mode, then that Custom mode AND the same numbers will be synced to all the other raws as expected.
As far as keeping the same toning you see on your camera's review screen (the camera-embedded preview JPG is what you're seeing, here) and what LR shows you by default, is not going to happen, and will be more off if you have the camera doing some exposure optimization like HTP or ALO (if those are still the acronyms Canon uses) because, again, that optimization only affects the camera JPG, except the HTP actually underexposes so LR's version of the images might be darker than what the camera shows because it's digitally boosted the ISO between the time it writes the raw data and produces the in-camera JPG preview.
Regarding your previous question about using DNGs or CR2s, the particular format of the raw data shouldn't affect how LR works with the images. Obviously if your DNG conversion includes reducing the size of the images or using lossy compression, then the image dimensions and some aspects of the details, both sharpness and noise-reduction will change compared to the original raw but those sorts of things will be always be different than the in-camera JPGs as well, so it seems unlikely part of what you're seeing.
