Nikon has updated the Windows NEF codec to version 1.10. A codec is software that is used to compress or decompress a digital media file and function as an extension to the operating system. The Nikon codec allows you to work with NEF files in a similar manner as JPEG or TIFF. Many applications like Capture NX2, Photoshop and Lightroom don’t utilize the system codecs and instead create their own.

Updates include:

  • Supports NEF (RAW) images taken with the D3100.
  • New color processing is supported.
  • Distortion control data updated.

The update STILL only supports 32-bit versions of Windows.
