.NEF files taken on my new Nikon D600 won't open in CS5 Bridge Camera Raw.

Error Message:   The Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in did not recognise the format of one or more files."

.NEF files taken with the Nikon D90 are opening perfectly.

There must be plug-ins available - I just can't seem to find them. Can someone send a link please?

I am working on a Mac

URGENT help please - I have a whole wedding to edit!

D600 raw files only open in CS6/ACR7.3. You need to upgrade your Photoshop. http://www.adobe.com/photoshop/

An alternative is to use the free DNG Converter to convert your NEFs to DNGs and those will open in older ACR versions. Another alternative is to get Lightroom 4.3.

I have owned 5.1 Photoshop for less than a YEAR! When I bought it they said that it would be at LEAST a year till 6 came out and less than a month later TA DA 6 came out! GURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Now they want me to upgrade again.

If it really was only a month before CS6, then you may have been or may still be eligible for a free upgrade, but perhaps that was only for a limited time.
