Nikon RAW Codec 1.7.0

Mark Goldstein | Software | April 28, 2009 | 2 Comments |

Nikon has released a new version of its RAW codec, which lets you view NEF files within Windows. Version 1.7.0 now supports NEF (RAW) images taken with the D5000 DSLR camera (pictured).

Website: Nikon RAW Codec 1.7.0

1.7.0 changes
* Supports NEF (RAW) images taken with the D5000.
* The folder to which the software is installed has been changed from “/Windows/System32/” to “/Program Files/Nikon\NEFCodec/”.
* Fixed an issue that caused a message stating that the image was corrupt to be displayed when a photograph for which the “Landscape” or “Portrait” Picture Control had been selected using ViewNX™ was displayed in Windows Photo Gallery on a computer to which optional Picture Controls had not been installed.
* If the user attempted to use Windows Photo Gallery to e-mail an NEF file edited in Capture NX 2™, the JPEG attachment would be cropped to 1,280 × 1,024 pixels. This issue has been resolved.
* Reduced the time need to display NEF files that have had their brightness modified in ViewNX™.

Seriously Nikon, we are all going to be using 64-bit PCs in a few years, time to develop a codec. I have to buy Photo Mechanic to import GPS locations into RAW files and view raw files I don’t want to import into Lightroom. Time to man up and get this codec done. It can’t be that hard.
