Is there some kind of plug in for adobe Photo Shop cs to view nikon raw files ? For the life of me i can’t get the raw files to open at all. It’s driving me nuts.
Any one have a nikon camera ?

Background information
The latest version of the Nikon camera software (Nikon View, Nikon Capture) installs the Nikon NEF plug-in. If this plug-in is in the Photoshop Plug-ins folder, it starts instead of Adobe Camera Raw when you import an NEF file. Photoshop will still recognize Nikon NEF files if you rename the Nikon NEF plug-in, and open the files in Camera Raw instead. However, if you rename the Nikon NEF plug-in and the Photoshop Camera Raw dialog box still doesn’t appear, then delete the Nikon NEF plug-in, and make sure that the Camera Raw plug-in is installed to the correct location.

True that
you shouldve gotten a kodak digital camera instead it can make jpeg files you can fit so many it must use a smaller font for the 1s and 0s of the DIGITAL file. cool hey . thats how technology works.
Windows Vista now has a great feature that greatly improves the EXIF data in your images.
Dunno if you’re trolling or not, but in my experience, Vista totally hoses your EXIF data. In typical Microsoft fashion, they’re trying to change the standard to a Microsoft one.
So programs that depend on “standard” EXIF and XMP are failing on photos that have been “improved” by Vista. Try uploading to Gallery2, for example.
I must be the easiest guy in the world to troll.
kodak are shit, cheap lenses. theyre a kids camera.
i second that
they dont even make slr’s
thankfully there are no longer making cheep digital cameras
they are gonna focus on pro quality cams
my question is, where is the quality
