I have Lighthouse 3.6.  What do I need to do in order to read/edit Nikon D3200 camera's raw image?

    It will either be necessary for you to upgrade to Lightroom 4, or download the very latest DNG converter and convert your images to the DNG (digital negative) format.

    Thank you Jim.  I'll look for the download link for the DNG converter and try that route.

    Thanks again Jim.  I actually found the link and am downloading 6.7 as I type.  I was happy to see your link to verify that I had found the right download.

    Update: 

     

    Just finished download, and executed.  Ran program pointing to folder containing my images.  But received error message that my folder had no supported images.  (Checked folder name to make sure and it was the right folder).  So, short story seems to be that the Nikon D3200 is not yet supported (camera just came out May 1st or so).  I'll have to check back periodically to see when 6.8 comes out (which hopefully will support my camera).

    My mistake.  Sorry!  Support for your camera was not added until the 7.1 release.  It is still a release candidate, and you need to download it from the Adobe Labs web site.  The DNG converter is packaged with ACR in the release candidate package, and you will not be able to use ACR 7.1 with your older version of Photoshop.  But the DNG converter will work.

    Downloaded 7.1 DNG converter and sucessully converted images to DNG format which I was able to bring into Lightroom.  Thanks again for the help.

     

    Now, if only I could use this tool to it's full potential.
