Is it possible to open NEF files in CS2 as mine won,t open, is there a raw update of some sort, i tried the update for CS3 but that would,ent work on CS2, oh and i have,nt got CS3 anymore so can,t use that, any help and suggestions much appreciated,thanks in advance :thumbs:
 
With CS2, Camera Raw 3.7 is the last one that will work. If it doesn't support your camera, either convert your files to DNG (which I don't recommend, as it seems to reduce quality with some cameras, e.g. with Sigma SD14) or use a raw converter like RawTherapee, UFRaw, RAWHide (which are not being charged for) or something like Capture One 4, Bibble, LightZone or something else.
 
Thanks for the prompt replies guys, matty i have the D80 and D300, i,ve tried capture nx but find it slow and no tutorial, i really liked the CS3 but unfortunately lost it from my PC, i will try that RAW update for CS2 as i,m also used to using that too,thanks again guys :thumbs:
 
The RAW update for CS2 won't work with files from the D300. You need either CS3 / Lightroom / Elements 6 / Nikon Capture NX. You can download 17 PDF files from the Nikon site which gives you a comprehensive manual for Capture NX.
 
I gave up trying to get my nef files to work in cs2 and camera raw so now use raw shooter essentials and its free.
