![]() (Otherwise, as Robert explained, one would have to re-do the edits from scratch. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, DNG has value only if you make the conversion to DNG before editing the RAW file, then use a DNG-compatible editor. No, I haven't done that since an unedited DNG didn't seem to be of any value to me (since my edited master is a NEF). so you still have the benefit of you NEF's (with the edits) while also having the DNG's (with no edits). My workaround now will be to create JPG versions of the finished NEF (if I don't want to change RAW editors).īasically, when you converted your images, I assume you made backups of the NEF's and then created DNG's. After Tiger (Leopard, Snow Leopard) this capability was lost. On Tiger, Expression Media could display NEF edits perfectly. ![]() Just for background: the reason this fact became an issue for me is because I recently had to replace a Mac G5 running Tiger with a new Mac Pro running Snow Leopard. The work you do in one RAW editor is meaningless once you change to another OR convert your image to a different RAW format. this is one of the major issues with RAW images at the moment and NOT creating JPG's of the finished work. Most free and paid software solutions we covered earlier can convert a NEF to a JPEG. Of course, all the big hitters like Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop are available on Mac. Of course you will lose your "edits" made to the NEF images. Mac To open NEF files on a Mac you have many of the same choices as Windows.
