1. Re: Camera Raw Versions and PSE Versions
99jon Dec 6, 2013 6:27 AM (in response to Robert Eckerlin)No. They are both separate apps and have different camera raw plugins. You may be able to copy the file Camera Raw.8bi from PSE12 to PSE10 although some versions of PSE reject later updates.
A NEF from that camera will not open in with ACR6.4

Question 2: Can somebody point me to a downloadable NEF file shot by the Nikon D7100?
I will then download that NEF file and see whether I can process it with the combination of PSE V10 and Camera Raw 6.4.1. This will allow me to verify the answer to question 1. Thank You very much in advance for your answerYou might try googling 'Nikon 7100D NEF samples'

Robert Eckerlin Dec 6, 2013 6:48 AM (in response to ssprengel)Thank You very much to ssprengel and Michel.
When trying to download the foto files shown on the webpages that both of you mentioned, I see that it is a .jpg file that gets downloaded - not a .NEF File.
Am I doing something wrong?

Robert Eckerlin Dec 6, 2013 7:12 AM (in response to Robert Eckerlin)Thank you to all three of you (to 99jon, to ssprengel and to Michel) for your rapid and useful/excellent support and answers.
After downloading the D7100 .NEF File, I imported it with sucees in PSE V12 and opened it with sucess with Camera RAW.
But I was not even able to import that file in PSE V10. The PSE V10 Organizer told me (in other words, that i do not remember precisely) , that he was not able to import the file because it was invalid or damaged. Thanks to you, I have the answers that I neeed.

8. Re: Camera Raw Versions and PSE Versions
Robert Eckerlin Dec 13, 2013 9:07 AM (in response to 99jon)Since I am probably not the only one on these forums who do not understand well (or who is/was not even aware of) the Adobe DNG converter, I would like to add the following:
Yes, 99jon is totally correct: a NEF File from the Nikon D7100 will not open with PSE V10 and with ACR6.4.
...But: a couple of days ago, I realized that I could use the latest versions of the free downloadable Adobe DNG Converter (which supports among other Nikon D7100 NEF and the RAW Files of most modern cameras) to convert the D7100 .NEF files into DNG Files. To perform such a conversion, I started the DNG Converter, identified the windows folder containg the NIKON D7100 NEF Files, provided a couple of options and then let the DNG Converter convert the NIKON D7100 NEF Files into .dng files.
Once done, I imported the .dng files into PSE V10,...and could edit them without problems with the combination of PSE V10 and ACR 6.4. Even if I am not a specialist and might be wrong: I did not came across any limitation for the ACR editing of the NIKON D7100 .dng files that was problematic for my purposes (ACR even supported multiple "Camera Profiles" for the D7100!). I am more than happy!
To summarize: if making a small détour via the DNG Converter, it becomes possible to edit with the combination of old PSE Versions and old ACR Versions the "DNG versions" of RAW Files shot with new cameras (like for example the NIKON D7100)..
