ClayCreek Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I have just purchased a Nikon Z9 and Affinity Photo will not open these files. I am wondering if Serif is going to provide an update so these Nikon NEF files will open in Photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff DWright Posted February 3, 2022 Staff Share Posted February 3, 2022 Hi @ClayCreek, If you are running Windows then Affinity Photo will open the RAW files from the Z9 if you are on a Mac please switch the RAW engine in the Develop assistant to Serif Labs and you can then open the RAW file.

ClayCreek Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Thank you for the suggestion, however my Develop Assistant is set to Serif Lab unfortunately every time I open a raw file from the Z9 All I get is a black rectangle.

ClayCreek Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 I found out by trial and error that Affinity Photo will open the lossless compressed files from the Z9, which produces the largest file size, and of course JPG's. The two other file types that the camera can save images in, Affinity photo will not open those files at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
