Hi everyone,
Need some help, I've took some pictures in raw format, put the pics up on the laptop, opened up ps, opened the raw photo and is showing an error cannot open (file name).NEF because it is the wrong type of file.
How do I sort this out please?
Thanks
Marco
 
What version of Adobe Camera Raw do you have? & what Photoshop program?

I know that Elements 9 needed an update to ACR 6.3 in order to read D3100 NEF

All I know is I'm using pse 8.0. If that helps?
 
Depending on what camera your using my guess is the cameras much newer than the software.
Cameras launched after elements 9 came out (we're on v11 now) probably won't be supperted by v8 or earlier, the work around is usually to download the free DNG converter from Adobes site and convert your NRF's to dng, which hopefully the latest version of camera raw for elements 8 will be able to open.

Thanks Wayne, I've got a d3100. I'll have to download that and try see if it works, If it does then happy days :)
 
Had a look but can't seem to find which version to download for the d3100.
