saving files
Just trailing this soft ware, When you save a raw file can you save it with out saving a photoshop file as well ?
Re: saving files
The .xmp sidecar will be save with a raw file. This sidecar file holds the IPTC data that CMN can add. This way the original raw file is never modified.

Re: saving files
Hi. So, I'd like to ask the same question since I wasn't totally clear on the answer. Can RAW files be saved without sidecar .xmp files? I'm evaluating whether or not we should purchase ControlMyNikon to use alongside a unique Java applet. The applet monitors the folder where images are sent and then renames them. However, having the extra .xmp files in there stops this from working. We add metadata later in Adobe Lightroom when the images are processed.
Re: saving files
The .xmp is created only if you have added IPTC tags in ControlMyNikon, otherwise it will not be created. Best to give the trial a go and see this in action.

Re: saving files
Hi Russ, thanks for the reply. When I posted my question before, I had already been testing the evaluation version. Control My Nikon saves .xmp files by default. How do I turn it off? I never enabled IPTC tags, and I can't figure out how to disable them.
Re: saving files
If there are IPTC tags defined in the ControlMyNikon Preferences screen, or by using the Batch workflow, or in the View/Metadata tab, it will inserted into the IPTC tags in .jpg files, and within the IPTC in .nef .xmp files.

Re: saving files
Different saving times. Capturing time was 09:30 lokal time (PC system time). Why jpg & nef gets +1h on savings. Any suggestions?
