How can these shots be improved?

There is no one set Raw format, so Adobe has to keep updating their plug-in for Raw files to accomodate new camera models. Support for the Nikon D80 started with Adobe Camera Raw version 3.6. My guess is that you have an earlier version installed.

You can get the updates at Adobe's website.

Here's the 3.6 update for MAC: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloa...jsp?ftpID=3553

And for WINDOWS: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloa...jsp?ftpID=3554

Instructions for installing the updates can be found there as well.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Joe, I can now open the RAW files :thumbsup:

Any suggestions on shooting pics for HDR? I tried today, but when I changed the exposure for each shot, it moved slightly (this putting the shots out of alignment).

Does the BKT option work for this?

Any tips would be appreciated
