Nikon D90 RAW (.NEF) files won't load!

[Tigger]

Was sorting my photo's last night from the meet yesterday, some of them were took in RAW on the D90

Only to find out that PaintShop Pro x2 won't load the dam things! :banghead:
Gave up shouting at the laptop and the pc after a few hours trying different things

Took a wee browse through the Corel site and Google, apparently it doesn't support the RAW files for the D90 and a few of the later Nikon's :S

Any other way I can edit these photo's?

Cheers

Can anyone shed some light on this please, or know of a similar problem with same software/camera ?

I can load my .NEF files in photoshop cs3, if you can get hold of that? Iphoto can open them too if your using a mac.

 

[drhowser]

picasaweb will let you use raw files i'm sure.

Trying to get myself equipped with CS4
- that's what I'm learning new tips/tricks with at the photography club I go to.
Bloody expensive though!

i had this problem when i had a d90. cs4 will do the trick

 

[Tigger]

Yeah the RAW files for the D40 were grand, but it throws the toys out of the pram for the D90 :dead:

Hopefully getting CS4 Extended tomorrow

Lightroom can also handle them.

So can Bibble.
Obviously a budget PP package but it works for me.

How does Lightroom compare to CS4, or is it an add-on to it?

Lightroom is a stand alone. It is loads quicker for simple post processing, and is good for cataloguing too. I could not be without it TBH. The only time PS gets aired is when I need to use the clone tool or filters.

DNG converter

Agreed, Lightroom is the only way to process large numbers of images. I dread to think what my processing time would be on a few thousand photos without it.
