Can't open .NEF files from my new D90 - Ideas?

01/12/2009 02:13:16 PM · #1

Hi guys, really need some help on this - I've updated the codec from the Nikon site but still no joy. It doesn't seem to recognise them as image files. I get a little preview in bridge, but not large ones like on the D40x. I can still open the d40x NEF files in Camera Raw - but the D90 ones aren't recognised file types!!

I just did a shoot for the restaurant I work at and need these shots submitted tonight, but I can't f*%Â£ing open them.

I'm going to be letting a lot of people down if these don't come out. Help!

what program are you using?

I had to use the Nikon software (whereas I was using PhotoElements)when I got my D90 in September....JUST recently Adobe updated their files and I can use PE6 again.

I'm using Photoshop and Bridge CS4, would have thought it was updated already, but maybe not.

I'm running Camera Raw 5.0 - does that not support the D90?

According to Adobe, Camera Raw 5.0 supports the D90, as does LR 2.0...

I think this is what you need

Well i've tried updating to ACR 5.2 but it's still only opening the D40x files - and it's still calling itself 5.0(?!).

I'm getting the DNG converter now then I'll try a restart. I did fortunately shoot in RAW + Basic .jpg, but I'm submitting for a magazine - don't want to have to submit low quality shots...

DNG is going to do what you need.
