The Nikon NRAW hack: change NEV file extension to R3D and get complete RED RAW control


If you rename a Nikon NEV file extension to R3D, it will be interpreted by Davinci Resolve as Red R3D files. This will unlock a whole different set of raw video editing features, such as chroma noise reduction and the ability to change white balance in post, similar to most other raw video formats. Until now, NRAW was not capable of doing that non-destructively, but with that hack, it’s possible now.
