Q: Does anyone know when Apple will begin to support Nikon's flagship NEFs files, the RAW files generated by the D4s and the D810?

Lanny, Software Update doesn't offer me any updates except of Mavericks which I want to pass.

Allan, there's not much to be seen in this report - no Aperture version, no Raw compatibility update version. I found the "about this Mac" more informative and also very interesting that 5.0.6 has a version number and 5.0.7 doesn't.

EtreCheck version: 1.9.15 (52)

Well, now I know, how bad software department has become, I re-imported 5 RAWs in to Aperture - they became visible and editable. Great, So I just need to export all 650 RAWs and then reimport. Piece of cake… So I had to think about something similar to re-import.

Better Idea - just in case somebody reads that with the same issue: Mark the projects or better the folder all D810 RAWs are in. Then right click / ALT click to "Process originals new" or something like that (my language is not English). After that the former black plane with white triangle shows as they are  - pictures, yay!

Thanks for comprehension and all the helpful hints.
