Reading Raw files from the D7000

I recently purchased a Nikon D7000 & shot some pics in the Raw format.  However, when I went to download them into my Photoshop Elements 8 to edit them, I learned, to my dismay that Elements 8 won't read the D7000's Raw file formats!  The program read the RAW files from the Nikon D90 just fine, but won't recognize them from my D7000.  I am VERY upset about this & am hoping for a rememedy ASAP. 
PLEASE HELP!!!

All camera makers like to make slight changes to the RAW format for their new models. Adobe then take a few months to produce a camera RAW plug-in to process the new format.
In the case of the D7000, the first version of the camera RAW was ACR 6.3 - unfortunately this was not available for PSE8, only PSE 9 and later.
I think your only options are-
1) upgrade PSE - a word of caution, there may be a new version out later this year (Aug/Sep by normal timescale's)
2) download the free DNG converter and convert the NEFs to DNGs and then process them as normal (will open in ACR)
By the way, don't shoot the messenger, I'm a user like yourself just trying to helpful. Adobe staff do look here sometimes but it's mainly users.

  • Is there a solution to Adobe Bridge CS6 not being able to read raw files from the 5D Mk lll

    I like to use Bridge as my overall file organizer.  I operate on a Mac version OSX version 10.8.3 and cannot read my raw files in bridge cs6.  Does anyone have a solution for this.  
    Also is Canon putting any pressure on Adobe to fix this?

    Not bridge but camera raw. You'll need to update your camera RAW.
    You can either do it directly in Photoshop, or you can download it here: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html
    At the bottom, there is a link to download Camera Raw 7.4 for Mac and WIndows. Adobe hides there link from their main site to force people to update via Photoshop update feature.

  • How do I getr my CS5 to read RAW files from my new Panosonic DMC FZ200?

    My Adobe CS5 can't read RAW files I'm attempting to PP in it from two new cameras. What  good is having software that is suppose to be able to read RAW files when it won't for new equipment. Surely it should be able to adapt to newer  cameras as they come along.Today I tried downloading a sample RAW file from a online review of the new Canon 5D Mark iii. It starts to open in CS5 but then says it can't read RAW files from this camera either. How do I change that in my Photoshop CS5. I havn't tried it in Elements 10 yet. will it do the same thing and will I need to change the settings there too? I can post process RAW files from my Canon XSi  and XTi  without any problem.

    What Noel said.
    FYI, Adobe is constantly supporting new cameras with new versions of Camera Raw.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    But you must upgrade your version of Photoshop in order to run the latest versions of Camera Raw to read Raw files from the latest released camera models. Or join the Cloud and you can keep your software current at all times as part of your membership.

    Or run the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all Raw files to DNG then edit the DNGs in Photoshop

  • Hi there, I need to be able to read raw files from an Olympus Stylus 1 via CS5 and Lightroom 4.  I have downloaded Raw file plug-in v 6.7.1 but still can't read the files.

    Hi there, I need to be able to read raw files from an Olympus Stylus 1 via CS5 and Lightroom 4.  I have downloaded Raw file plug-in v 6.7.1 but still can't read the files?

    Read this table http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    The Olympus Stylus 1 was first supported in Camera Raw 8.3 which is only compatible with CS6 and CC.
    It is not compatible with CS5 or older and never will be.
    If you do not want to upgrade to CS6 or CC then you can dwonload the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all Stylus 1 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5.

  • Import Raw files from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom 3

    If I understand correctly I must upgrade to Lightroom 4.3 or get a converter in order to import my Raw files from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom?
    Not sure if I understand it correct?  Which is the best way?

    I use LR 3.6 with the latest updates for camera raw for this version, I believe it's 6.7, and my D7000 and its NEF's were correct handled.
    Did nothing else as install the program, update every time there was an update and in September when I bought the D7000 LR worked fine with his NEF's. Before I had a D40x which was als correctly handled.

  • IPhoto imported half my RAW files from my D7000

    IPhoto imported half my RAW files from my D7000 and cant read the rest, what happened?? It says file format can not be read

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Plans to enable import of Cinema DNG (RAW) files from the Blackmagic POCKET Cinema Camera

    Are there plans to enable import of Cinema DNG (RAW) files from the Black Magic POCKET Cinema Camera into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6?

    There won't be any new features introduced in CS6, only some bug fixes if ever. All new features go into CC. Rumour has it that Camera RAW will be added into PrPro (sooner or later).
    Off topic question: have you tried to convert BMPCC CinemaDNG files into DNG via Adobe DNG Converter? Resulting files are about 15% larger, so I hope that is what constitutes uncompressing them and making possible to import into PrPro CC natively (I'm not on CC, hence can't test, but I'm curious).

  • Adobe camera raw 4.6 and nikon raw files from the d700

    when opening a nikon raw file from the new d700, the picture appeares almost 1 step brighter than if you open the same picture in nikons capture nx2 software. the same happens when you do so with the new camera raw support in apples aperture - also almost 1 step to bright.

    >I expected that a raw file shows up the same in every raw-converter.
    Your expectation is wrong. Every RAW converter will give you a different interpretation of the data. There is no single accepted way of interpreting RAW.
    >shouldn't that be so?
    Not really. I think what makes RAW so interesting is that you are not tied to the camera maker's interpretation of the data. This gives one far more versatility to get to your desired result. Of course, if you prefer the camera maker's interpretation, youu can use their software to develop the RAW or you can use the beta profiles in ACR/Lightroom and get
    close to identical rendering. I don't know if Adobe released any beta camera profiles for the D700 yet though.

  • Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4.  When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

    Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4.  When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

    Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
    The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
    CS5 is history and it is not longer supported.  There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
    You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera.. 

  • Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

    Yes, if you have PSE 11 (not the mac app store version). You will need to go to Help>Updates in the editor to update ACR to 7.3.

  • Photoshop CS5.1 won't read raw files from Canon EOS M

    Photoshop cs5.1 won't read raw files from canon eosM, what to do?

    The EOS M requires at least Camera Raw 7.2 but Raw 7.2 is only compatible with CS6 or higher (CS5 is only compatible up to Raw 6.7)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    To open and edit Raw files, either upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud and get the CC version.
    Alternatively convert the Raw files from the EOS M to DNGs using the free DNG converter then edit the DNGs in CS5.1

    My program does not read raw files from mark III

    emac77,
    Support for Canon 5D MIII RAW files was announced in ACR 7.1 (Adobe Camera Raw 7.1).
    The current stable release is ACR 7.2 while ACR 7.3 is still a Release Candidate (Beta).
    Starting ACR 7.2, Adobe stopped supplying a manual download link which was available till 7.1. Adobe Application Manager (AAM) is the only way for you to update to ACR 7.2.
    However, here is a direct download link that AAM connects to for the download that you can use to grab the .zip or .dmg (Mac) file. Download and install. See if you're able to open your files then.
