need help.

i have temporary set the Z6 to shoot Raw (NEF) and jpeg, when i upload them i see the jpegs but not the Raw file, the Raw files are there but black. i have Nikon Capture NX-D which did all the raw files on the D500, do i need to download a different file for the Z6??

Or have i to set something on the camera.

Capture NX is not supported by Nikon anymore. As a matter of fact, this is the last couple of weeks before the download links go away.

You might try grabbing the last version of Capture NX or switch to NX Studio. I do use Studio for my Raw+jpeg imports from my Z5.

The first thing you should do is, depending on which OS you use, (Windows or Apple) is download the appropriate Codex to view NEF files from Nikon... That allows Explorer or Finder to see your NEF files without any added programs...

The next thing is to use editing software that supports the Z6... as BF Hammer points out you'll need to download and install the newer versions of Nikon's free software if you want free...

The third option is to use commercially available software (you pay something)...

If you plan on editing them in Photoshop, Camera RAW, or Lightroom, be sure to download the latest version of Camera RAW, too.

Thanks guys, Cindy i dont have PS or LR, i always wanted to get one of those but never got around to it.

Downloading Studio now.

I doubt that I have any information that will be relevant consider my camera is about 4 generations back. It will be you assisting me if I should ever make the jump to something newer.

i found the CH settings, still getting the hang of this, i need a load of BIF shots now.
