What i was getting at is how did you view the D7500 nef so you could post the screenshot comparison?

Also Nikon offers ViewNX-i & Capture NX-D for free, which should open and edit your Nikon D7500 nefs.

What operating system are you using and version of camera raw in pse 13 do you have?

What version of the DNG Converter did you download?

Hi Jeff, thanks vor your reaction. I downloaded the 12.2.1.417 That's the newest I gess. My camera D5300 is okay with camera raw., but my D7500 is new and I cannot downlad the right version of Camera raw because PSE 13 doesnt support D7500. That why I use the DNG conerter.

Operating system is:windows 10

Hi

Since your question is about Photoshop Elements 13, I have moved this from the Photoshop forum where you posted.

In which program do you have opened the left picture.

I think this is the embedded jpeg which has applied all settings of the picture style you have set in your camera.

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 5 - Topaz Photo
