Re: [Gimp-user] Open / Edit Nikon D5500 NEF files ?

Nothing wrong with proprietary software. This is FREE.

I’m a professional graphic designer and amateur photographer.
I use what works and suits my purposes. 
“Religion” plays no part in it.

Did I mention that CaptureNX-D and ViewNX-i are FREE?

There's a few different option for raw processing without resorting to proprietary software. RawTherapee, 
darktable, PhotoFlow, and others. We keep a list here if you're interested:

  editors: CaptureNX-D and ViewNX-i from the Nikon site.
  Both are FREE and they work very nicely. You can then convert images to
  JPEGs or 8- or 16-bit TIFFs.
  Also very handy for downloading from your camera or a memory card.
  No need for Lightroom.

  I have downloaded gimp 2.8 and am trying to access the RAW Files(NEF Nikon
  format) created in my Nikon D5500 camera.  However the files are not
  recognized by GIMP.  The files cannot be open.  My computer's operating
  system is Windows 10.  Is there a work around for this or do I have to
  purchase Lightroom 6.0 in order to open / edit my NEF files?
