It should not be tolerated and I'm glad to see others on this thread think the same. In some cases they like to screw over thier customers to increase profits (slow down of Apple Phones).

Adobe lightroom support software#
Adobe Lightroom (officially Adobe Photoshop Lightroom) is a piece of image organization and image processing software developed by Adobe Inc. Unfortunately larger companies like the Adobe's, microsoft's and apples of the world dont seem to care about their customers so long as their profits are healthy. com /products /photoshop-lightroom-classic. Another developer, wargaming gives out software as an "Im sorry" when something screws up with their software. One developer Bohemia interactive kept their Arma 3 game in Alpha Beta for multiple years before releasing. There is a reason gaming producers have alpha and beta releases, to weed out issues BEFORE customers pay. The difficulty with supporting Adobe Camera Raw plug-in updates for legacy versions of Photoshop and Lightroom is that camera manufacturers are creating new proprietary raw formats each time they come out with a new cameraand new cameras are coming out faster and in greater volume. Microsoft does it too and it shouldnt happen. Its called rushing to production before the saftware is properly beta tested and it is absolutetly unacceptable. Would you pay for a new car that isnt compatible with current fuels? Would you be pleased with paying a premium for what is supposed to be a finished good only to find out that you are the one that is testing it for the manufacturer? It isnt acceptable, this software should be compatible with existing files if the manufactures intent is for you to use their software with the top 3 or 4 current camera manufacturers.

My questions are these: Will Lightroom ever be able to read NEF files without having to convert them to TIFF or DNG? Or is this something I'll just have to do as long as I'm a Nikon user? Why are NEF files not supported? Or is there actually some way to edit NEF files in Lightroom that I don't know about?Īnyone who has some advice or answers for me, please post! Luckily, I found a workaround using the image browser, Lyn, but it is a huge pain to convert all of my photos to the TIFF format before importing them into Lightroom ( I don't even know if the conversion to TIFF negatively impacts the photos in some way). The Adobe DNG Converter says it can convert any RAW file to DNG which can then be read by Lightroom, but that's not the case - the converter cannot read the NEF files from my camera.

For more information on these apps, see Adobe Lightroom Edit Like a Pro. If you have the Photography Plan, then as well as Classic you have access to the Lightroom cloud ecosystem including the mobile apps and web interface.

I had no idea that the RAW file format used by Nikon (NEF) would not be compatible with Lightroom, my one-and-only post-processing software. For extensive information on Lightroom Classic, see Adobe Lightroom Classic The Missing FAQ. ARW raw files written by camera's firmware since the very beginning - yet Adobe can't use it ( which brings the question - how come one-man operation like Iridient CAN and fat corp can NOT )īy If you want a wise answer, ask a reasonable question.I'm a new Nikon user and I recently purchased the Nikon D7500. that much complained Sony 24-70/2.8 mkII optics correction is there in.

plus Iridient products have a lot of other advantages - for example they can extract optics correction information that manufacturers are writing in raw files and put that info (and you can control which tags ) as DNG tags ( or bake it in like DxO does - your choice ) eliminating the need yet again to wait for Adobe to come w/ their own subpart external lens profiles ( you know that Adobe not using full optics correction data supplied in Sony raw files and Canon raw files for example ). That is how it is intended to be ( and original raw files are never intended to be deleted ) to replace ACR/LR demosaick w/ the one that was better ( it all started w/ the mess Adobe had w/ X-Trans CFA ) - all other transformers appeared by popular demand.
