fjmcsu Posted May 7, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted May 7, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Just for those who may run into this problem while importing their various camera RAW files(so far not seen with DNG files):I am currently importing files, writing metadata, keywording my entire photographic library to Lightroom.I noticed that some early NEF(Nikon files) would import but no thumbnail preview nor metadata were present.I tried opening them in PSCS3 & could not.I opened them in Capture NX & just re-saved them as NEF files (without any other manipulation)& therafter all those files imported in normal fashion into lightroom.My first thought was corrupt files but they all easlily opened in the NIkon software without a hitch.

arthury Posted May 7, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted May 7, 2007 How old are your NEF files? I have 3 yr old NEFs from old D100 that opened up in LR with no problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjmcsu Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share #3 Â Posted May 7, 2007 they are from the D1x era.The curious fact is that in the same folder there are a few other NEF files that opened fine but the majority didn't !At any rate if it happens to others with any RAW filre type, it certainly is worth trying to open them in their"native" software before assuming they are not useable.
