Nikon RAW Dateien der Nikon Z9

Hat jemand Erfahrungen warum Ligthroom CC nicht in der Lage ist mit der Nikon Z9 gererierte RAW Dateien zu verarbeiten. Es ist sehr lästig die Nikon Datein auf den Rechner zu laden, in ein DNG Format zu konvertieren und dann in Ligthroom zu importieren um die Bilder bearbeiten zu können.

Liegt das Problem an Adobe oder an Nikon. Es ist sehr lästig und für beide Firmen kein Ruhmesblatt

Does anyone have any experience why Ligthroom CC is not able to process RAW files generated with the Nikon Z9. It is very annoying to load the Nikon files onto the computer, convert them to DNG format and then import them into Ligthroom to be able to process the images.
Is the problem with Adobe or with Nikon. It is very annoying and no credit to either company.

Correct answer Per Berntsen

The subject of this thread is importing files from the Nikon Z 9, not the image quality when processed in LrC.

So please create a new thread where you describe the problems in detail.

Also please export one or mor edited files as DNG (which will include all your edits), and put them on Dropbox or some other file sharing service, so we can examine them.

Hi
Many people have an issue with LR classic and Nikon Z8 / Z9 RAW files.  
The quality of the photos imported into Lightroom Classic has significantly degraded.

Many people shoot with a Z9 and use the photos in Lightroom Classic without issue. What happens when you try?

The Nikon Z9 has been supported since version 11 of Lightroom Classic. What version are you running?

What happens when you try to import? Please provide details.

Hello,
I use Lightroom CC version 12.4.
And after your hint (the update to 12.4.) I checked the procedure again and see it works.
And as always, the problem was in front of the computer.
Thank you for your effort.

With best regards
