Q: When will Aperture support the Nikon 610 NEF file format?

I've been using Aperture to inport my Nikon D7000 NEF files and just upgraded my camera to the Nikon D610.  I saw where Aperterure supports the NIkon D600 but not the N610.  When with the D610 format be supported?  If there are no plans, what other options are available?

 

Thanks!

 

Best,

Scott

    Only Apple can say if and when the D610 will be supported, we're only users like yourself here. Apple never announces this type of thing in advance so you'll just have to be patient for now.

     

    In the meantime you could shoot Raw & JPG, use the JPG's now and when the Raw's are supported  switch to those. Hopefully you won't have long to wait.

    I just upgraded to the latest version of Aperture because Apple told me it supported the Nikon D610 raw file format.   Well, it does NOT.  I am hoping there is a setting that I need to turn on, but I have my doubts.  I have to wait until tomorrow to talk to a live person about this, but I can attest to the fact that the latest version of Aperture is not importing raw files from a Nikon D610 even though Apple is saying it does.  I am very frustrated at this point in time....

    Hi Cathy,

     

    The Nikon D610 is listed as a supported camera here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5955

     

    Can you confirm you have Digital Camera RAW 5.01 or later? You can go to Aperture > About Aperture and it will list it for you there. Also, does the image open in Preview?

    No, I don't have 5.01 or later...you would think a fix or upgrade would be in the latest version of aperture that you purchase (I purchased it yesterday).   I assume there is an update....I'll take a look and see if that works.  THANK YOU!
