Rob,

I have Nikon View 6 that I used before getting a dedicated memory card reader. Nikon View won't change your images from NEF to JPeg. You would need to open the Nikon Editor tool or another editor and actually convert your RAW or NEF file to JPeg.

I didn't realize that you had a Nikon. Nikon View will also give you the exif data you mentioned in the first post.

Also, if you haven't done so already, visit the Nikonian forum for great information. I found the Nikonians to be a little more easy going as compared to DPreview.

I actually have a nikon and a canon 20d .

The 20d is my new camera that I WAS having trouble doing RAW.
Nikon View was reading my card the minute I put it into my scanner and sending my picture in Internet explorer. in Jpeg . So if I block nikon View from sending them , and open Canon EOS viewer they will be there in Raw and I can send them to photo shop then save them in RAW/TIFF .

Thank You VERY much for you help !!!!

Rob, what would you say that the sweet spot is on the 18-55mm kit lens?

Here is a site that shows photos from a lens at different f stops to see which fstop is the best. This lens , it looks like 5.6 is the sharpest.

Did a little research on the web and found a test/review for each lens I have.

The kit lens ( 18- 55 ) quality is best from 18 mm - 28 mm@ f8 and 28 -55 mm best at f11.

My 50mm 1.8 II is good from 2.8 to f.8 with 5.6 being the best .

I will have to check it out !!
