I just picked up my D700 yesterday and to try out the higher ISO on it i took a few pics and want to view them on my pc.I already have a D300 which when i shoot in RAW the files are opened via CS4, however the D700 Raw images arent opening. I can view on the camera but they wont transfer to the pc.Any ideas?:shrug:
 
ACR is free to download. Think you need 4.5 for CS4 and D700
 
There is a sticky thread I did to help with people in this situation here.

I've hopefully made it easier to find the right version of ACR anyone needs, and whether it is compatible with the version CS/Elements people have. :)

It's strange you're not able to open the D700's RAW files - CS4 ships with Camera Raw 5 so it should open them without having to download updates.

CS4 was on the pc when i bought it ( pre-owned ) and i dont have any disc etc---just wondering now if its a legit copy or not....saying that i dont have many discs with the pc...:cuckoo:
 
Download Nikon View NX - that's free and you can do some 'simple' editing for any current Nikon digital camera and most that are older (if not all).

When i double click it opens up my CS4. I then plug in my D700 and it recognises the D700 but wants me to open in Camera wizard with no option to open in CS4

Right-click a NEF file, select OPEN WITH - is CS4 in the list?

PS. Stick a NEF file on the desktop first.
 
I went into my computer and found the D700, dragged a file to my desktop, right click and found CS4, opens file fine.

I connect cable to pc, turn camera on and it opens up the camera wizzard with no option for CS4. I open in camera wizzard and it cant see any files at all on the camera.

Going out for 30 mins to pick up daughter will reply when i get back.
 
Just cancel the Camera Wizard and transfer the files from the camera to the PC as you did previously.

Good - that's the CS4 side of it sorted. :)

That's Windows' Camera & Scanner Wizard butting in. It's sussed out you've connected the D700 and it's assuming you want to upload pictures to the PC. You need to tell it to 'take no action'. Which version of Windows have you got?

If you can't see any folders or files on the D700, either the CF card is empty or it's not in the camera.

Ok.
 
Ok, normally when i plug in my D300 it gives me the option to use Adobe Bridge where the D700 doesnt give that option. My pc doesnt recognise the files when i use the camera wizzard but if i go to-- the my computer /D700 and take files off and onto my desktop i can the get the option to open in CS4 by right clicking... On my iphone just now so may be slow with 3G.Ps im using windows XP home

Something somewhere is not set.

Plug the D700 in & switch it on (with CF card containing pics) / go to Control Panel / Devices and Printers / double-click D700 / double-click Browse Files.

A new window should open - there should be a drive symbol for the D700. Double-click that and it should take you to the parent folder on the CF card (called DCIM). The picture files are in DCIM.
 
I never used my camera(s) connected in this way..... but, isn't there a camera setting for "mass Storage" devices or summat it like that? No manual with me - at work :(
 
PS. To change camera wizard:

Plug the D700 in & switch it on (with CF card containing pics) / go to Control Panel / Devices and Printers / double-click D700 / double-click Change Settings.

There should be a line "When this device connects to this computer" and a dropdown box next to it.

Click the dropdown arrow and select the option you want - e.g. Adobe Bridge or Browse Files or Take No Action.

Hit OK.


Here it is in Windows 7

There is no option to change settings at all:shrug:so im stuck at that part.
 
Are you connecting via a USB hub or directly to your computer?
 
In the setup menu, check the USB settings. You may have it set to "MTP/PTP" as opposed to "Mass Storage". Set it to "Mass Storage" and you should be good to go .... got this from another forum. It may help..... I've seen this before which is why I mentioned it earlier. Apologies if I'm wrong ;)

Right, you're at step 5 below.


Disabling camera wizard in Windows XP

1. Connect D700 & switch on.

2. Go to Start / Control Panel.

3. In Control Panel, open Printers and Other Hardware (if the Control Panel is in Classic View, skip to the next step).

4. Open Scanners and Cameras.

5. In the Scanners and Cameras window, right-click on D700 and choose Properties.

6. Click the Events tab.

7. On the Select an event pop-up menu, choose Camera Connected and then select "Take no action" in the Actions area.

8. Click OK.
 
Ok... read a bit further on..... Nikon have removed this from later cameras (ie not in the D700 setup menu)

Going to sleep now!
 
If you want to run Adobe Bridge instead - go to step 7 above and tick PROMPT FOR WHICH PROGRAM TO RUN instead of TAKE NO ACTION.
