Tethering for Nikon D5100

Hi there,
I'm wondering if the Nikon D5100 will be working with LR 4 in the near future? I took a course over the summer and purchased the software. I'd love to use the tether feature but it isn't listed as supported yet.
Thanks!
Elizabeth

We do not know.  Sorry.
You can shoot RAW+JPEG and use the JPEG files for now. Or go through Adobe ACR and convert to DNG. Or use Nikon NX2 or Adobe Lightroom that will convert D5100 RAW files.

  • When will Adobe Lightroom support tethering for Nikon D810?

    I am wondering when will adobe support Nikon D810. Aperture already supports it...what is holding Adobe to add tethering for D810?

    My guess is that Nikon writes the tethering driver for Apple so it is ready very quickly, whereas Adobe has to wait for an SDK then wait for their own resources to finish coding and I imagine it is messy and low priority so it takes a while.

  • No RAW Support for Nikon D5100 in Aperture 3.1.2 - any ideas of an update soon?  I am only using the Aperture 3 as a Trial.

    Anybody know if Apple is releasing a new update to support the new Nikon D5100 yet?  I am on the Aperture 30-day trial right now.  Thanks.

  • Will lightroom 5.5 support tethering for Nikon D3300?

    It does allow me to import photos from the camera, but says camera not found when I start tethered capture. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

    Yes, that is correct. When Adobe announces support for a new camera, that initial support is for supporting the raw format. And because every manufacturer has their own unique file format, Adobe has to add support for each individual camera model. But that support does not automatically include tethered support. That usually comes later, and only to certain models.

  • Bug report: Wrong As Shot White Balance for Nikon D50 NEF in Camera Raw 7, Lightroom 4

    For Nikon D50 cameras Adobe Creative Suite 6 does not read "As Shot" white balance data whether it's specified or not. It defaults to "Automatic". We have the problem only for Nikon D50 and only in Photoshop CS6, Adobe Camera Raw 7.3 and Photoshop Lightroom 4. (Not in CS5. Not for Nikon D5100 or D7000 or Canon S95) .
    There is a more detailed posting at photoshop.com.

    We'll know when it happens, Lucht - software companies don't make support promises in advance.

  • Tethering support for Nikon D610

    When can we expect to see tethering support for Nikon D610 ?

    Read the release notes carefully and you will find that (and the same as has always been) cmaer support was added for Camera Raw which means file type. Tethering support has always been later after Nikon release their tether support data. It will be som time in the future.
    You can always use Aperture (not much use if you have a PC) or any other software that works, that is your choice....

  • Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600

    Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600 as it is instrumental to our decison regarding purchase.
    Many thanks

    Nobody is happy with the answer about old software not getting updated with new cameras, but if you look into it, Adobe had to lay off about half their employees over the past few years to keep the company viable in the declining economy, so they don’t have extra people to update and test plug-ins for non-current versions, and if they did, then some people wouldn’t buy the newer version and they’d have even less money.
    Adobe has only just gotten the D600 supported for raw format in their current beta version of LR, which affects everyone with a D600, and if they had to wait for Nikon for supply and SDK and also have to prioritize their work to keep things on schedule, tethering is likely to lag behind raw-file support for any particular camera.  Apple controls their entire computer environment, hardware and software, so it’s not surprising they can implement tethered capture from day one, but Adobe must figure things out for OSes they don’t own, both Mac and PC, so they rely on waiting for Nikon to do things for them, and then figuring out how to get it to work.
    Well boo hoo for Adobe ... life sure is tough for them ... if they can't handle the load maybe they should get out of the business of software development ... They can't be all that worried about revenue to support Lightroom development or they wouldn't have reduced the price of the full version by 50% and the upgrade price by 20% ... it was a less than smart move considering they have been bragging for the past couple of years about how many more folks use Lightroom vs. other competitive options ...
    Aperture 3, Capture One both have tether support for the D600 ... and many more cameras than are supported by Lightroom ... those developers are working and engineering solutions in the very same economy as Adobe (and C1 supports both platforms as well, costs much more than Lr and employs far fewer engineers) ... why aren't they suffering from the same lack of support? ... or using the camera makers to deflect blame for the lack of results?
    Excuses are not solutions ...

  • Lightroom 1.4 & Nikon D5100

    Hi,
    I'm running Lightroom 1.4, but when I try to upload RAW files taken on my Nikon D5100 I get an error message saying the files are either unsupported or damaged.  Is it possible to edit Nikon Raw files on Lightroom?
    I'd be grateful for any advice,
    Chris

    Support for the Nikon D5100 was provided in LR 3.4.1 in May 2011 so the options are
    1. Upgrade to Lightroom 3.5 the latest Lightroom version or
    2. Download the latest DNG Converter from the Adobe website and convert your .nef files to dng. Lightroom 1.4 will then be able to work with the dng files. Keep the original nef files for use with the Nikon software as it does not support dng files.
    That said the upgrade to LR 3.x is a substantial improvement from version 1.4 and well worth the price of upgrading around $90. Many new and improved features including an updated processing engine, sharpening, noise reduction and lens correction function. You can download the trial version and use the full functionality for thirty days and make an informed decision.

  • Can I edit Nikon D5100 RAW photos in iPhoto '09?

    I recently shot photos for an event with my Nikon D5100, using the RAW + jpeg setting. I uploaded my photos into an iPhoto event, and both the RAW and jpeg photos appeared in the event. I have read that iPhoto '09 supports lossless RAW file editing, so I selected one of the RAW photos and attempted to edit it. iPhoto entered the edit window, but the image appeared blurry and all of the editing tools were grayed out. Photo editing works fine with the jpeg files in my event. Also, when I double click one of the RAW images it opens it as a gray exclamation point icon.
    More information: I am running OS X 10.6.8, and iPhoto 8.1.2. The page at the below link indicates that the D5100 is supported in 10.6.8, without mention of a specific RAW Compatibility update that must accompany the OS. I am assuming that since iPhoto '11 requires OS X 10.7.5 or later this information applies to my use of iPhoto '09, though any RAW compatibility updates on the Apple site for download are either only for iPhoto '11 or already installed on my computer.
    Any insights on what may be going wrong? Thanks.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3825

    I believe that the 5100 will work on iPhoot 09 and 10.6.8 and these issues:
    I selected one of the RAW photos and attempted to edit it. iPhoto entered the edit window, but the image appeared blurry and all of the editing tools were grayed out. Photo editing works fine with the jpeg files in my event. Also, when I double click one of the RAW images it opens it as a gray exclamation point icon.
    are due to the fact that iPhoto cannot find the Raw file - that's what the ! means.
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • Lightroom  tethering for the D610

    When will Lightroom support tethering for the Nikon D610

    To paraphrase what's been said, if it's a new camera (yep)  made by one on the "big" manufacturers (yep) and not included in the current version - 5.3 (nope) it's "likely" to be in the next. Wait for the 5.4 beta (or whatever the next version will be) and check the release notes for that.

  • .nef Nikon D5100 is not displaying right in Camera Raw

    Hello,
    these two images show the exact same .nef file being opened in two different programs. The first one with the blown out colors is opened in Adobe Camera Raw. The second one is opened in Nikons View NX 2 software. This is also the way I see the photo on the display of my Nikon D5100 camera. I really would like to handle my .nef files in Bridge and Adobe Raw and not in Nikon View NX2. Can someone help me with this please? I have Photoshop CS5.1 (64bit) and Camera Raw 6.7.0.339.
    Thanks in advance,
    Thomas

    Hello,
    Thanks for the reply. How do you switch the camera profile please?
    I can adjust the settings in ACR so that it looks more like the Nikon Software, but it's not easy to match this. Also, when I pull vibrance to -100 for example to regain the detail, a lot of noise appears. You'll have to admit that there is a BIG difference here between the two images. (both are untouched)

  • Aperture3 won't open raw files from my new nikon D5100

  • Lightroom 3 and Nikon D5100

    Hi,
    I just recieved my Nikon D5100 today and it looks as if Lightroom doesn't recognize raw for the camera.  It worked perfectly with my Nikon D5000.  Does anyone know when Lightroom will support D5100 raw and if there's a workaround until it's officially supported?
    Chris

    I'm in the same situation.
    Failed options:
    I could use NX, but then I would end up with jpegs or tiffs, neither of which is my permanent storage format (DNG), nor a viable alternative (not being raw).
    I tried to install Adobe DNG converter, but it prompted me to install their app manager, which then said it couldn't install DNG converter. (DNG converter 6.0.3.79 does not recognize the D5100's NEF files.)
    Preview and Quick Look don't recognize them yet; no OS X support.
    Read-only:
    Xee does open the D5100's NEF files. (Version 2.2 is current from http://wakaba.c3.cx/s/apps/xee.html .) It is designed for viewing, not editing; I use it for my first preview/cull step (sometimes).
    The GIMP also opens the D5100's NEF files. (Version 2.6.1 from http://www.gimp.org/ , which says it uses UFRaw 0.17 which in turn uses DCRaw.) However, no option to save as DNG.

  • Having trouble tethering the Nikon 7000 in Lightroom 3.6

    Seem to be lots of talk about tethering the D7000 but no one actually says it's working for them. I have worked through all the help here in the Adobe Community but no joy when it comes to connecting the camera. Here is a short run down of what I have done to solve the issue.
    Ensured Lightroon is up to date.
    Ensured my camera has the most current firmware
    Reset the Lightrooms "preferences" file.
    Tried different USB ports
    Checked that the D7000 is on the Adobe list for cameras that can be tethered in LR
    USB cable is under a meter long and no USB hub is being used.
    No other software is running in the background that might control the camera
    The camera can be tethered with Nikon's Camera Control Pro 2 with no issues. I am using Windows XP home as an OS. The computer has a AMD Athlon 64x2 dual core processor running at 2.0 GHZ with 3 GB of RAM. Pretty sure we are ok here.
    I would really like to use this feature in Lightroom, does anyone have any ideas?
    thanks..

    Hi Sumit,
    The problem is no camera detected. The camera RAW version is 6.6
    About the only thing I have not tried is re-installing Lightroom. Any thoughts?
    Thanks
