Supported RAW formats
Current RAW coverage includes CR2, CR3, DNG, NEF (including HE / HE* / HE Star variants), NRW, ARW, RAF, ORF, RW2, PEF and 3FR.
Nikon NEF, HE / HE* and NRW
N1 supports Nikon NEF files, including HE / HE* (HE Star) variants, together with NRW in the same Gallery, Filmstrip, comparison and culling workflow.
Pentax PEF and Hasselblad 3FR
PEF and 3FR files are supported alongside the other camera RAW formats, so mixed-camera folders can stay inside one local Windows browsing workflow.
Fast RAW image browsing before editing
N1 focuses on the review stage: move through RAW files in Explorer order, inspect at 100%, compare candidates and apply ratings, Pick / Reject and labels before handing selected images to Photoshop or Lightroom.
Browse before editing
Use Filmstrip and Gallery to move through local folders, inspect images, compare candidates and make culling decisions before handing selected files to an editor.
Explorer-oriented navigation
Explorer order, folder browsing, search, multi-select, ratings, Pick / Reject and labels are designed to keep large local folders manageable.
