Q: How can I do for Aperture to recognize the Nikon D800E RAW format?

Aperture seems to recognize tje Nikon D800 RAW format but not the D800E. Could someone help?

Photoshop recognize it, Nikon capture as well. I rather use Aperture.

You will need to wait and see if Apple adds support.

Aperture and iPhoto both rely on the 'Digital Camera RAW Compatibility' updates to read the files.

Try if the free Adobe dng-converter can read the images: see here http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/16064/adobe-dng-converter

Shoot jpeg+raw till Apple adds support for your camera and use the jpegs while you are waiting. The list of supported cameras is here:

Thanks All.
I'll be waiting and use some of the RAW converters in the mean time.
Converted in .tiff, the pictures are quite heavy! More than 275 Mb per picture!
