NEF (RAW)
NEF (RAW) image files (extension “*.nef”) contain the raw image data
output from the image sensor. Using Nikon’s ViewNX-i or
Capture NX-D software, you can adjust and re-adjust settings such as
exposure compensation and white balance as often as you please
without degrading image quality, making this format ideal for photos
that will be processed in multiple different ways. ViewNX-i and
Capture NX-D are available free-of-charge from the Nikon Download
Center.
The process of converting NEF (RAW) images to other formats such as
JPEG is referred to as “NEF (RAW) processing”. You can save NEF (RAW)
images in other formats using the ViewNX-i and Capture NX-D
computer applications or the
NEF (RAW) processing
option in the
camera retouch menu.
