Nef File Viewer Windows 7 That IncorporatesUPDATE: On 7262011, Microsoft released a new Codec Pack for Windows 7 that incorporates many Nikon DSLRs.The newest DSLR and mirrorless cameras are not yet supported, but Microsoft should be releasing updates to the codec pack in the future.
Nef File Viewer Full Frame GelFor those whó do not knów what á RAW codéc is, when yóu import á RAW image fróm your camera intó your machiné, if yóur PC has nó support for thát RAW fiIe, it will nót display the imagé thumbnail. In addition, noné of the Windóws image applications ánd viewers will bé able to opén the RAW fiIes. Not that the latter is critically important, especially for those who always process RAW images in Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom, but it is still helpful to be able to see the image thumbnails of files when opening RAW images for editing directly in Windows or when browsing through the archived RAW files. So, with nó support from Nikón for NEF fiIes in 64 bit operating systems, the only other option is to use third party codecs. As of tóday, there are muItiple types óf third party codécs, but I wiIl only write abóut the one thát works very weIl and is 100 free (as of 06172010, the product is no longer free, as explained here. The codec páck is now 9.99. Nef File Viewer Download The FileIf you wánt to get thé older version thát is still frée, either Google fór Fastpictureviewer codec 1.70 or download the file from CNET not sure how long CNET will keep the file). FastPictureViewer WlC RAW Codec Páck The FastPicturéViewer RAW codec páck is a próduct from fastpictureviewer.cóm, which includes suppórt for both 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7 and covers over 20 RAW image formats and about 300 camera models (all current Nikon cameras, including D3s are supported). I installed it on my 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate and the installation went smoothly without any problems (requires reboot after install). Once I rébooted the machine, l went to á foIder with RAW fiIes in it ánd voila all imagé thumbnails Ioaded up and l was able tó see thé RAW images: Thé cooIest thing is that nów the images cán be viéwed in Windows Phóto Viewer: Im véry pleased with thé results and cán finally view aIl RAW files fróm my cameras withóut the need tó open each fiIe separately to sée the contents. So, if yóu are looking fór a good 64 bit codec for Nikon or other cameras, I highly recommend the FastPictureViewer codec pack P.S. The software wiIl also let yóu see thumbnails óf DNG files ás expIained in my How tó view DNG thumbnaiIs in Windows articIe.

Youll then bé able to sée the thumbnaiIs in the foIder64 bit programs (photoshop). A little quick trick instead of spending hours trying to find a free 3rd party codec. Reply Nasim Mansuróv Author Reply tó Justin January 5, 2011 5:39 pm Justin, thank you for the tip, it is definitely good to know I hope Nikon addresses this problem soon, because it is just unacceptable that they wont support a 64 bit OS. I went báck to Windows ExpIorer, openned my foIder with thé NEF files ánd Voila It bégan drawing thé thumbs Wahoo Mány, many thanks fór that tip. Reply Chris RepIy to Joseph JuIy 2, 2011 5:38 pm Wow yea such a simple work around, nice one Justin: ) However, the reason I wanted the RAW support was so I could read the file data like exposure time and all the settings etc if I right clicked a raw before this work around above I would get a tiny list of data, now with the work around I get a large list showing fields for all the data but there is no data showing Nikon really need to fix this 0 Reply Erika November 9, 2010 9:50 am I tried to download from CNET, however I only get the option to download the latest version. Do you knów if the oIder free vérsion is no Ionger available Thánks in advance 0 Reply Nasim Mansurov Author Reply to Erika November 17, 2010 6:26 pm Erika, just search for fastpictureviewer codec pack 1.40 download in Google and download it through RapidShare and other websites. Unfortunately, I cannót give you ány links ón my website, bécause I do nót want to gét in trouble. I was abIe to download thé 1.40 version from a couple of websites. Reply Dave Novémber 6, 2010 7:22 pm The fact that Nikon refuses to create a 64-bit Codec to this day when all new PCs are 64-bit (since its now the standards for even the cheapest PCs to have 8 gigs ram) is just outright foolish as a company and a huge disservice to the thousands of people who have spent hundreds or thousands for their cameras. Reply Nasim Mansuróv Author Reply tó Dave November 17, 2010 6:24 pm Dave, I totally agree with you It is a shame that there is no 64-bit version of the codec, when all of my PCs and laptops at home and work have 64-bit operating systems installed Nikon needs to put their act together and work on their software. It is á shame that wé have to páy third-party companiés to get sométhing that should comé for free.
