You don't need to convert the image to DNG in Lightroom to use it's ACR engine on a Nef. Just select the image and right or control click and choose edit in Photoshop. It will then tell you that the photoshop ACR is an older version and give you the option to render in Lightroom.

As I alway browse my photos in Lightroom and then open into Photoshop from here for me this is no extra work at all, and you don't need to go near DNG to do it.


Good point. If you have Lightroom (and use it fully to import and do the basic editing) I don't know why you'd ever bother to pass through ACR on the way to photoshop since you can't save a raw after you reach photoshop anyway
Btw. Lightroom rather nicely allows you to roundtrip any images that you open and save in photoshop (or other software)


Just you wait until Adobe realise this and that it is reducing the need for people to upgrade Photoshop to get the latest ACR support ;-)
