How do I get PS 7 to open my NEF files??

Much thanks.

I believe there is a Photoshop plug-in for NEF images. I think I heard that it is on your Nikon View CD????
I have a Nikon CP5700, but I forgot to bring my software and manual on a six month assignment away from home, so I can't confirm... can anyone else?

Check out a program called Bibble, it is a conversion program for NEF files to photoshop. It has a more user friendly interface and workes faster. You can download a trial version from BibbleLabs.com. , the trial version workes for 30 days with all features, but will continue to do the basic features indefinanately.

Adobe Photoshop
Nikon View 5 contains a NEF plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, it is possible to apply adjustments to NEF files using the plug-in before opening the image into Photoshop. Images can be opened in Adobe Photoshop 5.0 or later (Photoshop LE excluded) and Photoshop Elements.

Hope this helps, Michael

That did it! Thanks.

Hey I saw this concerning Photoshop 7 yesterday. New RAW plugin I have opened a couple RAW formats without it and it takes way long and has frozen my photoshop a couple times. This may work a little better and have some more features that without the plugin aren't there.

edit- OK I went and read a review on "Camera RAW" for Adobe and it sounds AWESOME. Very very cool stuff.

I just wanted to bump this to see if anyone is using this "Camera RAW" plugin and to see how it is.

Jubei, I saw the same information about Camera Raw - but I have not tried it. For now I will use the Nikon programs to adjust the NEF files and then go to PS7. I like this so far, but I might try Camera Raw if this becomes a burden.

Morgan, thanks again for setting me in the right direction.

Dennis, I'm sad. My Nikon software trial ran out for my RAW editor. No I have to decide weather to go with the Photoshop version or the Nikon one. I don't know yet.
