P: Nikon D4/D800 nef file cannot be imported

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

made a bunch of photos with the new nikon d800. 2 out of 14 nef files cannot be imported with lightroom 4 while the other 12 import fine.

One thing more, I get the message "unsupported file type" in all "account's"

Hello, it's been a year since you've posted this reply. I had this problem with my D800, shooting stills in live view mode. Do you know if a solution has been found? Many thanks! Chelin

Hello, It's been a year since you posted this reply, I have Lightroom 5 and my NEF stills shot in Live View Mode are not imported. I hope you can help me. Many thanks! Chelin Miller

Hi Chelin,

If you are using a DX lens on your D800 and shooting in Live View Video mode, you will need to wait for the next Lr dot release, which will enable proper import for those NEF files.

If you are using a FX lens on your D800 and shooting Live View Video mode, you should already be able to import those files into Lr (be sure you have the latest version).

Thank you, Eric 🙂
