You need to convert to tiff or jpeg (ideally 16-bit tiff) and load this file into PS7 directly.

(4) The current View NX software (free download) will also work, though it has no PS plugin.

This plugin is automatically installed if you put Picture Project on a PC that already has Photoshop. It also comes with a PS plugin that should work with PS7, allows you to adjust exposure comp and white balance, but is 8-bit only. The main application allows you to convert to 16-bit tiff, though without true raw adjustments. (3) The Picture Project software that came with the camera will work.

Although you can use it to convert your NEFs to DNGs, you can't then import them into PS7 (DNG compatibility was introduced in one of the ACR 2.x series plugins, and you need at least CS = PS8 to use these). PS7 is only compatible with ACR 1.0, which was a paid upgrade, is no longer available, and doesn't work with D80 files.

(1) You can't install a compatible ACR plugin. There's some contradictory information in the above replies. If you are advanced enough to shoot NEF, you probably don't want to use Picassa anyway. But I'm not really sure if they actually convert the NEF or just use the embedded jpeg. If you are "real" Photoshop user used to actions and some other Photoshop features, Elements might feel limiting.Ĥ) There is other free or inexpensive software such as Picassa which can read NEF files. Latest version of Elements costs about $100.

$300 (educational discounts available)ģ) Get Elements. If you like living on the edge, try the version 2 beta. Clumsy but cheap and retains the benefits of RAW.Ģ) Get Lightroom. Other options, including some previously mentioned areġ) Find the free Adobe DNG converter and batch convert your NEF files to DNG.

The best suggestion is as Ellis says, upgrade to CS3. So you won't be able to open these in PS7 period. And I'm pretty sure any ACR version compatible with PS7 will _not_ recognize D80. The latest version Adobe Camera Raw plug-in will not work with PS7. It is an unsurpassed way to manage photos at the moment. If you have both Nikon and Canon cameras as I do, Lightroom provides a single application that works with most RAW formats, TIFF, PSD, JPEG and so on. Lightroom also provides excellent features for outputing JPEGS from a "collection" of one or more photos maintained by the Lightroom database.

So get Adobe Lightroom, read its documentation carefully about configuration: to automate loading files from camera / or NAND media, to automate "development" if desired, to configure it for external editing with photoshop or other editor(s) - including automatically file increment naming and so on. Lightroom has proven to be the photo database tool of choice at the moment for anyone who is the least bit serious about DSLR photography. Lightroom stores the "development" settings, and can even store more than one set of "development" settings for a given RAW NEF file. Lightroom on the other hand, basically contains all the functionality of ACR within its develop module. Option 1) sucks because it doesn't provide any way to store the settings applied while loading the NEF file via ACR. I mostly use option 3, although it is easy to mix in option directly from Lightroom by configuring Capture NX as an external editor from Lightroom. Lightroom remains the primary photo organizing database.

Setup Lightroom to auto generate a matching TIFF or PSD to auto-load in Photoshop for external editing from Lightroom. Then edit the TIFF in Photoshop as needed.ģ) Use Adobe Lightroom to "develop" your NEF files. IMO, that is the least palatable approach.Ģ) Use Nikon Capture NX to "develop" your NEF files, and then perform a Save As operation and convert the NEF into a TIFF (16bit or 8bit as desired). Google "Adobe Camera Raw" and search for it on. You have various options available to you.ġ) Download the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plugin from the web site.
